Work Motivation

Ok, today is a great day at work. I literally had nothing to do. Everything seems to slow down to a speed of idleness. In fact I was being sarcastic about it, I really hate to be idling. It made me really drousy and mentally frustrated. I guess I am the type of perverse that does self-torturing by working endlessly… I can't believe I am blogging this at my working hour

The issue here, though, is not that I have nothing to do. I could choose to do something and spend a good afternoon on the issue. But I do not see any encouragement if I go ahead and finish what I could do. I have been persuraded that even if I indeed resolved some good problem, the only thing I will get is somebody else taking the credit, or worse. Thus I go into idle. I believe that this is a very clear sign for somebody who is not being properly motivated… it is time to seek for that dream job again~

Website idea

I know this may sound very familiar, but still I am going to say this: I am into hosting a groovy web2.0 website and hopefully make some extra cash if possible.

This thought started 2 months ago, when I was planning the trip to China. My fiance was checking listings on craigslist and said she was thinking of doing some business. Be a boss.

Not until now we are seriously thinking about how this can be carried out. We need to talk to our tax accountant, get our feet together as well as our funds, start to gather all the receipts that are from business related purchases. AND get a domain name. As we progress into this step of preparation, I started to found more and more related articles on the web regarding to how many people are doing the exact same thing, how difficult this has become. Especially when close to all domain names that make any sense to people have already been taken.

I actually ran into another article, warning me such a phenomenum already, about 3 months ago. But I was young and ruthless

Now I am having awfully fun time trying to come up with a nice name for the up-coming website. Wish me luck.

I’ve safely returned from China. We visited Canton, Bei Jing, and Hong Kong. We had a lot of trip, a lot of food, and survived thru a food poisoning. Ha ha. Anyway, you can find tons of photos from flickr:
