March 15th - The End...

  • 44 BCE - Ides of March: Julius Caesar of the Roman Republic was assassinated by a group of Roman senators.
  • 1493 - Christopher Columbus returned after his first trip to the Americas.
  • 1906 - Charles Rolls and Henry Royce founded automaker Rolls-Royce.
  • 1917 - Tsar Nicholas II abdicated, ending Imperial Russia.

... and my last day at Microsoft.

Leaving back tommorow, ideally this should be a post about my experiences here, how i will remmeber this time all my life.. blablabla... unfortunatly, I'm not gonna post an end..

the blog just sprang forth into the world one day and ends like that too. So, no endings, no conclusion. There will be no more posts on this blog from today. The name is reverting back to the original name.

My indian blog will be: This One. I'll start when i get back.

Today's plan:

1. Wrap up stuff in office
2. Farewell drinks at the hard drive bar
3. Pack stuff - no easy task this, have to dump a lot of trash.
4. Wait.

Tommorow, 5pm to bangkok, there one day, night flight to delhi and that's that.

It's been fun blogging china... thank you for reading...

Good night.

The End - The Doors

This is the end, Beautiful friend
This is the end, My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end

No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again

Can you picture what will be, So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land

Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane, All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the King's highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold

The west is the best, The west is the best
Get here, and we'll do the rest
The blue bus is callin' us, The blue bus is callin' us
Driver, where you taken' us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...I want to...fuck you

C'mon baby, take a chance with us X3
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin' a blue rock, On a blue bus
Doin' a blue rock, C'mon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end, Beautiful friend
This is the end, My only friend, the end
It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me

The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end
