Glorious Midweek
By Serge Norguard. Filed in Outings, Personal |
Yesterday Serge received an email from Nic pertaining to the prizes which he has won during the Sembang Tech-ED impromptu blogging challenge that was held. The email contained the shipping details and like a puppy who just gotten a new ball to play with he checked the tracking number to see where on Earth is his package at that time. Obviously it was in Singapore, so he asked himself on when it will arrive here in Malaysia at a little known corner known as Kelana Jaya. The clock struck at a number which beckons Serge to sleep.
The following events is about today and the godliness that follows. Upon waking up for obvious reasons and to prepare himself for the Canon Expo, like clockwork Serge flicked the switch, got online and check the parcel. “October 24, 2007 08:58 Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia With delivery courier “, Divine Faecal Matter Catman !, it’s here in K.L. , jump jive and rave till the kneecaps breaks from the stress. But when does it arrive at Serge’s residence.
A shower here, breakfast and some err other items which should not be mention for the sanity of the viewers happened. BEEP! Serge came out of his room and look to the right. Lo’ and behold, a delivery van with a man holding a rectangular shape package. The delivery man called out and stated the name of the person of whom the package belongs to, it was Serge’s.
John Hancock given, Serge went back into his room. Do take note that all of the images from here onwards can be clicked for a bigger image.
Like the blazing comet, he ripped the package a part with surgical precision. And there it was the stuffles which he had won.
The items which Serge won are :
1.Windows Vista Ultimate – which includes both 32x and 64x version
2.Office Ultimate 2007
3.Office : Mac 2004 Professional Edition
4.Expression Web
5.Halo 3
6.Crackdown
7.Gears of War
All of this comes up to a very big $$$. To the team and to Nic, Serge thanks them many times.
Now that is all said and done he went off to KLCC for the Canon Expo. Of which some interesting items were shot such as :
The above is the NP-1100. Which is Japan’s first plain-paper copying machine made in 1970. The cost of the machine at that time 880,000 Yen.
Kwanon (Prototype Version), Japan’s First 35mm Focal-Plane Shutter Camera (1934)
Canola 130. The world’s first 10-key electronic desktop calculator (1964).
And with any expo, there will always be booth girls.
