Bad Dream?

Man I had some bad dream last night. In my dream, I saw a terrible car accident on the highway right outside my house. They was a lot wrecked of cars on the road and there were people gathering near the highway. I could see some blood on one of those cars. There were police cars surrounding the area. It really shook me there. It was like scene from a movie but fortunately this was just a bad dream.

Then I thought to myself, what if this was a premonition? What if this nightmare was a warning about an upcoming events? Does dreams in your sleep means anything to you? I ponder what will I do if this really came true?

There was once this poem I heard.

There once was a man from Peru
He dreamt he ate his own shoe
when he woke up with a terrible fright
his dream have actually come true

If dreams are a warning from the subconcious mind, then what does it take to prevent the event from happening? If you ever had a dream in your sleep and you woke up in a confused state, what would you do? Take time to ponder on this one

THIS IS FRUSTRATING

It's only been three days into my industrial attachment. As you know, I've been assigned to Corbell which is a computer electronics supplier.The thing is that they put me into the sales promoter department promoting MP3/MP4 players at COURTS Jurong Point. I have to work from 12pm to 9pm everyday. Of course I don't mind the long hours but I am having a hard time trying to make people buy MP3s . The staff there is very friendly. They will help me out once in a while but pretty soon, I going to have to do things by myself. Sales promoter is not my stuff. I'm not good at convincing people to buy stuff. I'm more of a website designer than a sales promoter. Sheesh, one year of studying IT and computer stuff and here I am doing sales promotion trying to sell MP3 which in my opinion is not related to my IT studies(unless you consider MP3 related to IT/ computer stuff).

The product I am trying to promote are the Zling and TEAC brands but I am facing some ONE tough competition from other brands like that iPoD and the Sony Walkman. It's seem that the people whom I meet mostly want to buy an Ipod. My boss err laison officer told me If i don't make a single sale, I would failed my IA. From the looks of it, I have to get serious with this business right. Those people who wish to buy an Ipod would have to reconsider. I will make them reconsider and of course, promote my product. This weekend is going to be very busy for me.

One more thing, this so called Ipod have dominate the MP3 market for too long. It's high time that someone get down here and destroy their success. You can never dominate the market for ever. what, do you think you can own this market eh ipod with ye itune for long.get real, someday the Ipod will fall. Down with Ipod. Up with the other poor unknown brands who wish to see the light of fame. Hahahahahah! Somebody out there please come up with an Ipod Killer!
An innovative MP4 player that have more capability and at the same time affordable to the masses. If I had the power, I will create my own MP3 or MP4.

sorry ipod fans, I don't really hate the Ipod(nor do i liked them). It's just that I just hate standing around all day long waiting for a random customer to show up only to find out they prefer some other brands which I am not suppose to promote. Mainly ipods. I wonder whether there is a society against iPods on the net? It's a possibility. After all there is an existence of a society against videogames so this might seem plausible. Then again, hating a machine has no effect.

Another note. Should Nintendo make an MP4DS? wait Sony already did that with their PSP. Try making a DSX . A handheld gaming console/radio/MP3/MP4/camera/GPS/voice recorder/PDA/phone/wireless internet browser. That would work. sort of

Industrial Attachment next week

I've just gotten my IA posting which is at Corbell Technology. I wonder what do they do there exactly? I visit their website and find out that they are some sort of Computer supplier company of some sort. Their building is located at Ang Mo Kio which is very far away from my home. It probably will take me 30 minutes to get there from home. Fortunately for me, I have a few friends who have also been posted to Corbell. I had to report there at 9am sharp next week on Monday, 16-April. This IA thing gives me some sort of preview into the life of the working world

There is nothing to talk about

Hello my non-existent readers, as you can see here, I have absolutely nothing to talk about. I just can't think of anything to blog. There hasn't been anything interesting for a very long time. I think I need to get out more often. Then again, I'll just stay at home untill my school Internship starts. I'm just not sure what it is right now.
