eat art?

saw this at a burger place..... creative but one can forget abt using the table! the burger is oso not bigger than the hole!

Wow!

Am so blown away with this Peugeot that has glass roof n matching leather seats.... WOW!

only wowing not buying, out of budget.

too simple?!

been taking some time searching the NZ concrete code (thicker than BS concrete codes combined!) for the procedure to calculate moment capacity......... there is none! so pple here juz calculate the moment coupled from concrete stress block and tensile steel....... no regards if concrete will b overstressed or not, requiring compression steel......

even snr engr oso still using BS method......

Did it again......

I brought work back to the apartment....... always been telling myself to drop this bad habit but the stupid column uplift keeps giving me prob!!

unreal prices......

clothes prices n sizes r not working well for me here, a pair of made-in-china ladies bermudas cost $50 to $70 in most shops!! in the end got a fitting boy's bermudas for only $20....... also got a kids-size NZ-holiday T-shirt for only $10....... would rather buy my casual wear from SG if really no choice!

also can't get over the future monthly cost of $240 for carparking in my apartment...... been hunting for cheaper alternatives n found a nearby open space carpark which is free on non-working hours, heheh.....

New Year? Work?

dun really feel the new year coming since I had my big change 2 mths ago...... perhaps next new year I shall have the countdown at Sydney...... cuz Auckland fireworks r not fantastic!

not 100% back to work tdy too..... how to recover from the indulgence of spas, followed by ice-creams during the holidays??! finally got my structural model to work beautifully tdy but once I changed some members for optimisation, errors come back again...... so itchy fingers!! wanna bang my head against the wall!! forgotten wat I changed liao! #&*!$%@!#$$......

Nonetheless, Happy New Year!

Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland

juz 2 words - colourful & steamy!

Waimangu Volcanic Valley

Mt Tarawera's major eruption in 1886 spilt the volcano into half, exploded nearby Lake Rotomahana to 20 times its size and created 7 craters forming the Waimangu Valley........ these r only views of the lake, was raining so din tour the equally smokin' valley.......

Mt Tarawera

Steam coming out from a fault line..... would prefer more live action like a moving fault line??!

Lady erupting

Lady Knox Geyser erupts water & steam daily at about 10.15am (heh, after officials add soap in to break surface tension of underground water)........ would say it is less impressive than years before with more steam than water jetting out.......
