I just finished CSI Las Vegas season 6 episodes 7 continued to episode 8.

There was a massive shootout between drug dealers and cops.
Capt. Jim Brass and Sofia Curtis joined the cops on pursuit.
A shootout subsequently followed killing a cop and 3 of the drug dealers.
The fourth drug dealer was caught and killed during the arrest later on.

The two connected episodes were very dramatic.
It showed much emotion from Sofia and Capt. Jim Brass.

After much tension between the community and the law enforcement, Gil presented the case.
It turned out that Capt. Jim Brass shot a fellow officer due to the chaos of the moment.
During the cop’s wake, teary-eyed Capt. Jim Brass went to talk to the wife.
The wife gestured to stop him from speaking… then hugged him… “it’s not your fault”

Dang! Now I know why I have a complete collection of CSI Las Vegas.

Of all seasons and episodes… this has got to be the most memorable one.
Seeing Capt. Jim Brass’ emotional side makes him human. Makes cops human. Makes us human. We make mistakes. But we live with them. It makes us stronger.

I got teary-eyed. Yeah ok. I shed a few tears. Hey… can’t a guy get emotional sometimes? :D
I got carried away… I have to thank the producers and the writers… especially Paul Guilfoyle who played Capt. Jim Brass. Wonderful portrayal of character!

30-Dec-05 is the LAST Day of PROPS-C Training

I can’t get it out of my head… Malaysia Truly Asia!

6:00AM
It was a good thing… the hotel’s wake up call woke me up! It’s our last day of training! I went down and met Earle for breakfast. We then went back to our rooms to get ready.

7:00AM
I took a quick bath, got dressed, and went down to the lobby.

7:45AM
I got to the lobby and asked for my running bill. Yup, it’s in the budget. Hehehe!

8:00AM
The shuttle bus was a bit late. Hehehe! It arrived at 8:10AM. Mwehehe!

8:50AM
We settled down and checked our mails.

9:10AM
The last day of Ericsson’s PROPS-C training has started. We reviewed what we have discussed the other day. Something like a summary of what we have learned so far. I can’t believe we’ve tackled so much for almost 3 days.

10:30AM
We took our break. People were now more open to photo ops. Hehehe!

11:00AM
We resumed our training. We took some case studies. The topic is quite tiring. It’s quite confidential and I can’t discuss it here. :D

12:00NN
Lunch Break. The cafeteria guy was kind to offer me a not too spicy chicken, some coleslaw, vegetables, and rice. This is our last lunch together so people were quite talkative and discussing a lot of things. It was great asking each other about one’s cultural differences.

1:00PM
We went back to our training. The last fews topics are very tiring. Maybe because everyone was thinking of going home or maybe there were too many computations. The tiring part is not the computation but the interpretation of the case study that could lead you to a successful computation or not.

3:30PM
Ericsson’s PROPS-C Training has officially ended. Everyone started calling me. I was wondering why. Then it dawned on me they all wanted their photos taken during the awarding of their certificate of completion.

Everyone had a wonderful time! “Hey visit us sometime in Vietnam!”, “I’ll see you soon!”, “It was great meeting you!”

4:15PM
Everyone has said their last goodbyes and left the office for the hotel. Viji was kind to offer his car to take us to our hotel since our shuttle bus won’t arrive until 5:00PM.

5:00PM
We got back to the hotel. We thanked Viji for the wonderful training and for taking us back to our hotel. It was quite raining so Earle and I decided to just let the rain subside first before we go to Kuala Lumpur. We went to our rooms to rest.

6:00PM
I started fixing my luggage. Since it was still raining, I took a nice warm bath.

7:00PM
Earle and I went to the mall to eat and to buy some electronics. I had my money exchanged to ringgits. We went back to the camera store. To make it short, I bought JVC GR-D290 for 15k++ ringgit.

8:00PM
Earle and I settled at Sushi King. Earle said the food was not at par with his taste. I told him I didn’t really care for the taste but for the ambiance. Hehehe! There was a group of ladies dining. ;)

9:00PM
We went to the bookstore. I wanted to buy a unique book for my girlfriend. I couldn’t find any. Then a magazine caught my eye… FHM Malaysia! I used to work for Summit Media. We used to make FHM Philippines. I wondered what the content of FHM Malaysia is so I bought the magazine and it had a free FHM Malaysia Calendar. Cool!

9:30PM
We went to the grocery. I bought my nephew some chocolate gifts. I also bought my girlfriend this big Hershey’s Kiss. It’s just one piece of Hershey’s Kisses. But it’s big. It’s worth collecting though. “I’m home! Here’s one big KISS for you!” Hehehe!

10:00PM
We went back to the hotel to bring our things back. It’s our last night in Malaysia, so… Hehehe!
