Gym...

Went to the gym on Thursday with Kiang Hong, met up with the trainer in the California Fitness gym, turns out we had to make an appointment beforehand, apparently he had some existing appointment, so we had to work out ourselves,as it is we went off for some cardio, cycling running etc. Nothing interesting, afterwards we took off to get some rest at the resting area. California Fitness is pretty spacious, there are 2 floors, most of the weight lifting machines etc are on the 1st floor, the 2nd floor is where the cardio machines are, the treadmill, cycling, aerobics, punching bags are over there, theres also a room where they hold different types of exercises as well, yoga etc, they have a schedule for the different exercises there, but I'll have to get those from the trainer the next time I go there, haven't really got the details, not really something I'm interested in. Theres also a swimming pool on the outside of the gym, they actually have a jacuzzi over there... o_O? Tiny basketball court and a relaxation area as well. about 1 hour into the gym and we were pretty much exhausted.

Anyway I ended up staying over at Kiang's place, that guy has the worst virus ridden pc I have ever seen, I've asked him to reformat that thing so many times I've lost count, seems like he doesn't even bother maintaining his pc and that technician that keeps coming over to his house to fix his pc? I get the feeling his ripping Kiang off, that guy doesnt update the Windows for his pc at all, it's like cleaning up the mess from a leak but not fixing the leak itself, what is that? His still using the XP Service Pack 1, Service Pack 2 came out years ago. Literally years ago. I tried fixing his pc but it was getting late so figured might as well get some sleep. Figured his dad would send someone over to fix the pc again.

Next day Kiang dumped me at his house to go off for class, why did he ask me to stay over if his just going to leave me there with nothing to do until 1 o clock plus??? that guy never thinks things through. So while I was flipping through the channels, some technician comes over at 10 something and 'fixes' the pc, this guy probably thought I lived there or something, he tells me his fixed the pc and stuff, said he installed spybot: search and destroy and spy sweeper on the pc, now I used to use that thing(spybot etc), and while it does work, it only covers spywares, doesn't work on everything, much easier to just reformat the pc and update it, especially something as badly infected as that pc. Anyway the funny part is when I went to double check the pc and I find out that the technician hasn't even updated his windows!? It's still service pack 1. What the hell is going on... No wonder the pc keeps getting infected, this guy doesn't actually fix the problem, he just gets rid of the viruses.

I spent the rest of the morning looking at the idiot box, channel surfing, reading comics and feeling like an idiot, should have went home. I found out that he had a previous engagement with Dom, some lunch thing, I tagged along, figured it'd be good to see Dom again, so at 12:30+ his driver sends me off to uptown 5, Tower D. Which happens to be Kiang's father's company. One thing lead to another and We(Dom, Kiang and me) ended up having lunch with a bunch of executives and his parents at a sushi restaurant that apparently belongs to his dad as well.. Went home and fell asleep after that.

Wonder if I should join the camping trip.
