No, you're not hardcore, unless you live hardcore!

I and some of my class mate were invited for an Indian lunch, home cooked meal, by our Indian class mate named Shilpa. She lives in Zug in a fancy house with the lake as the view!
The food was great and we had a special cheese cake made by Isabella, our Swiss class mate; but everyone was busy with this cool kid sitting on the table with us!



I always want to have a son, or a daughter, does not really matter actually; but I do not know when will I be ready for that kind of commitment. I mean it is really a binding long commitment. You cannot return the child when you realize that you are too busy to take care of that little person.

DIY bed frame is a real pain.

After spending some months living like a Japanese, I decide to set up my bed frame. Apparently, it is impossible to finish the DIY bed frame if you only have the Swiss knife. I bought some stupid mini screwdrivers but they are as useless as the Swiss knife.


I remember a quote saying something like this: Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.
I guess I should just let the handyman does his work. I'll teach the handyman.

Orange CH is one terrible cellular service provider in Switzerland

I am totally unhappy with the service and all.

My BlackBerry 9800 which I got from Orange.ch in February, ended its life with error 606 on 26 June 2011.
I brought the BlackBerry back to the store hoping to get it repaired for free as it has 12 months guarantee from Orange.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a good quality service from Orange.


Two weeks later, I got a letter from Orange asking me to:

a. Get a new BlackBerry 9800 with the price of CHF 388.80 (No kidding, I just paid CHF 508.33 five months ago for the BlackBerry 9800 itself and now I am supposed to pay another CHF 388.80!)
b. Get the dead BlackBerry back with the price of CHF 60 (I have to pay CHF 60 to have the old one which they can't repair, sent to me!)
c. Let Orange destroy the BlackBerry for free. (How generous of them!)

If only I do not have the stupid binding contract with them, I would have already changed to other provider!
