How to still have a relatively good Chinese New Year while piled under massive amount of work.

Had an interesting Chinese new year this year. Been coding all day on the 6th, which was the new years eve, till around 9pm when the bunch of us decided that we want to make dumplings as it's a tradition for Chinese new year. So we went shopping for ingredients and started going at it once we got home. By this time it was already 10pm-ish already. A thing about guys in a young startup, is that at 10pm, while being bed time for others, is more like afternoon tea time for us. We're really not good at sleeping. The dumpling making went on till around 1am, during which time we kept our faces stuffed with the cooked dumplings as well. We then sat around and watched Superbad.
While not being able to spend Chinese new year with our families back in Asia, it was a pretty good new years eve. I remember last year I got so drunk that a few pot plants at my grandma's place suffered stomach-acid-splash-damage.

Wow, I just realised it's been another year since I did anything to this blog, crazy... I'm really not good at this time management thing...

Oh well, at least we're getting somewhere with the little software startup that I co-founded. Been developing a free machinima tool hard-out for about a year or so now, and it's now finally reached close-alpha. If anyone's interested in taking a spin at a free 3D animation tool, you're welcome to take part in our alpha-testing now.

Have fun go mad.

Dance like it hurts,/ Love like you need money,/ Work when people are watching.
