It was an unfortunate event, but accidents do happen which is why we have insurance. It was a relatively low velocity accident probably less than 10 km/hr, but the damage to my car was quite extensive. I made a claim with my insurance company which happened to be AXA. Their service was horrible. They have been very slow process my claim and after more than 1 month, my car is still at the garage. Now they are trying to reject my claim which is even worst. My insurance agent have been less than helpful. You would have thought that the agent is here to represent your interest. But the agent from Sun Hing Insurance seems to be representing the insurance company rather than me. Not only did I feel that they’re not representing my best interest, they did not follow up claim up for me. I end up making more calls than they did.

Conclusion, I highly recommend that you don’t go with this two company when you buy motor insurance!

The trip was great. We stayed at a really nice resort. I managed to take over 800 photos during the trip. Here comes the work. Everytime I travel, I end up with a huge amount of photos. When I got back to HK, the work began. Sorting through the photos themselves take a long time. I wish keywording was automatic. Going through the 800-plus photos and tagging every one of them is a pain in the ass. Tagging alone takes a hell of a long time. I’ve been doing it pretty deligently. I really like the idea of tagging since I’ll be able to search through the photos really fast. I can isolate the one photo with a few keywords. I usually have to go through the photos at least twice just to tag. After tagging, I rate my photos. After rating, I have a series of picks which I then start edit. The process takes a long time. Photography is more than just shooting. You now have to go through the entire workflow yourself. The entire workflow is quite time-consuming. Sometimes, I wish someone could help me with all this. But at the end of the day when you manage to publish your photos, it is very rewarding.

I’ll be posting the photos from the trip soon. I’ve finally finished rating the photos and will be touching up the photos soon. Keep an eye on my flickr stream!

Recently got a new Manfrotto tripod. Took it out for a test round and was prety happy with the results.
This was taken at around 8pm.

It’s been a long time. I know I haven’t been writing that much these days. Anyway, I haven’t been doing much lately. Work’s kinda tough especially when you’re on call 7-8 times a month. It seems that there weren’t any improvement since internship. I’m bascially either on-call, post-call or pre-call. Anyway, spending so much time in the hospital that I don’t really have much to do.

Where have I been? Well, I’m now a surgical trainee and it’s probably best not to talk about my work.

Other than work, I’ve been getting into scuba diving. Been already on two diving trip around asia in the last few months. Went to Mabul, Sipidan in Malaysia in October and was just at Bohol, Cebu, Philippines just around a week ago. Bohol was a big surprise! It was surprising good! We managed to see a huge school of barracuda while we were there. The service was a different story. Comparing Mabul and Bohol, Mabul has much better service. The DMs in Mabul was much more professional and also has a better attitude.

Anyway, while underwater, I’ve been taking a lot of photos. Marine life is very beautiful and colorful. I’m hoping to take many more photos in the years to come. If you’re interested, you can check out my photos at flickr.

I’ve had to make a decision about how I’m going to transport the system. Having read about everyone’s experience, I’ve decided that I would get a Pelican 1510. This is mainly because it’s the largest FAA approved carry on. What have I managed to pack in it?

It`s very nice. The keyboard layout is a little bit weird, so I`m having a little difficult with typing. Anyway, the tokyo trip is going to pretty good at the moment. Still a two more days to go. Will post more when I get back in HK.

  • A friend had recently purchased a Xbox360. I tried it for a little while. I must say the graphics were amazing. The console was hooked up to a HD TV, so we were playing PGR3 at 1080i HD. The graphics were much better than those I’ve seen on the original Xbox and PS2. Anyway, after one night, I went out and got one for myself on Friday. At the moment, I’ve only got one game, PGR3, but I’m planning to get more later. Playing on Live! was great. Playing against the computer was no fun, and I wasn’t able to play with my friends all the time. Live! meant that I was playing against other humans from around the world. Most of those playing on Live! are relatively good, and I’ve found some pretty tough competition. I haven’t been winning much, but I think that’ll improve once I got use to all the different tracks.
  • Saturday, we celebrated Harry’s birthday in advance. His family planned a boat trip for him and his friends. We fooled around the boat all afternoon. It was pretty cool. The boat was better than I expected. We took loads of photos, which will be uploaded pretty soon.
  • I’ve had quite a few interviews during the last month. I finally got a call I’ve been waiting for. RH called me this morning, and offered me a job. So excited! On July 1st, I’m officially a surgical trainee. It’s going to be a pretty long journey, and probably pretty tough. I’m going to spend at least two years in QMH surgical. I hope it’s not going to be too bad.
