Kuala Lumpur City Centre

Am currently in the office. I came in this morning to start an export of the ILMS database. Then, I went to KLCC with my best buddy for lunch at Chillies. I had Monterey Chicken while he had Mushroom Jack. And for appetisers, we had, what was it called, I can't remember, but it was filling, to say the least. It had this nachos with cheese and pieces of meat. I still can't remember its name. It might come to me, eventually. I hope.

Anyway, after lunch, went to Kinokuniya when suddenly, everyone is looking for me. By everyone, I mean my colleague and my boss. I phoned my colleague to ask about the problem. And he said that the users have been complaining about unable to access the ILMS database. Then I told him that I restricted their access because I was exporting the database. I said it the export wouldn't mean anything if the users are still using it, while the export is going on. Then he said that he thought today's exercise was just a test run. It isn't a test run, I told him.

Then he gave me some of the users who complained and I told him I'll phone them directly to inform them about the exercise. The users were polite, and were willing to wait patiently (I hope) till Monday morning at 6.00 am. I told them that after 6.00 am Monday morning, the system would be up and running (I hope, yet again).

So now, here I am, just copied the dump file over into the new server, waiting for the copying to be over. Waiting. Still waiting.

It was good to meet up with my best buddy. We seldom meet up nowadays. He's busy travelling Malaysia, while I'm busy with work in the hospital. He told me about his latest love interest. And as always, it was interesting. Hope something will bloom with this one.

Bumped into my cousin at KLCC. She was with her boyfriend, and both of them looked suprised to see me, and embarassed. But with their hand firmly clasping each others. They look good together. They said they just finished watching Kingdom Of Heaven, and they recommended it highly. Will try to find the DVD, since I'm sure I won't have the time to see it in the cinema.
