While I was reading a few friends’ blogs, I found a common theme from their recent posts: they missed their UCI college years.

I tried to look back to my own, too. But I could not find what they saw in mine. I saw myself falling, getting up, growing up, and changing. But I don’t particularly miss any times. There were good times, and bad times. It was my life at that time, pretty much the same as my life right now; good times, bad times.

I tried to miss the time when I was alone, more selfish, more care free. Funny how I could not remember when it was like that the last time.

I don’t think I am starting to lose memory; the process had begun long ago. I just didn’t know it happening.

Count down to 3 days till the last day in Adcom. =)

I’ve been busy with all the transition and cross-training. Meetings after meetings. I have never met with so many people so frequently in such a short period of time, ever. I sometimes think, why can’t they just chill? What’s the big rush? I was handed the projects long ago with minimal instruction, I am sure everybody can figure those things out.

I guess it is their mentality that I know a lot a lot made me valuable. Otherwise I am just as easily replacable as a student programmer. What I learned the most from participating in a project was the business process, user habit, outstanding problems, and user concerns, not the technical side. Technical stuff is easy to train and pick up anyways.

It is a little scary to think that I am going to toss away all my valuable business knowledge of the projects I have been involved in for years, and start something brand new and unknown. Scary…

For those who have not heard the rumor, the official word was in. I am going to be starting at a new company on April 17th!

I was expecting the last two weeks at the current job to be chill, but whoever told me that I just want to choke him/her! Well, just unexpectedly busy meeting rather than working on transitioning. Suddenly everybody wants a piece on my calendar, and suddenly I have all these stuff to finish before I leave. I thought transition means, I start handing the job to somebody else and I should stop agressively working on it. At least in one case here, hell no. I am still actively developing/testing on one project and installing for another. *sigh. I don’t have enough time to document the projects to be hand over.

Err.. Frustrated. I am only getting by thinking that soon I will be out of here.
