My summer went away just like that... Before I knew it I am back in LA already. I thought it would be cooler in LA, but I forgot the fact that I don't have an AC in my apartment...
To compound the problem, there's no wind coming into my apartment, so my apartment is literally like a sauna (at 11:43pm, it's 35C....) I am thinking about getting a portable AC, but with my luck, the weather will probably just cool down right away after I buy it, so I am gonna just wait it out for a cooler weather, if that doesn't work, i will just stay in the library until midnight everyday for free AC (yeah, I wish...)

Starting to Pack
Only when you are starting to pack will you realize just what kind of crap you have...
Well, I didn't really buy that much stuff (some people might disagree with this statement), after a rough calculation of my expenses, I realized that I ate/played most of my money away. The only things I bought were shirts, shoes, and a single-lens camera. The things that took the most space though... are my ufo catcher prizes...
I didn't update my collections after a few, but it's safe to say that the number and volume of the prizes has increased at least two-fold since my last update. It takes so much space that I couldn't fit all of them into my duffel bag. The good thing is that those are plush toys that are easy to squeeze (well except for one which I think deserves a separate post). So while they take space, they are not that heavy.
The other thing I've spent a lot of money from is arcade game... These days, Japanese arcade companies have developed many card-based arcade games, ranging from football simulation, gundam strategy, role-playing and many other more. I am particularly interested in a baseball simulation game called baseball heroes 2 I kept telling myself it's for research (I think it will port well to US), and that why I've spent "quite a lot of" money on that. I was hoping to sell some of my cards before I leave, but couldn't find a buyer in time. So I will need to take it back and put them with my Magic cards....

Recent Updates
Before I knew it, the internship is about to end in 2 weeks...
Just a brief list of what I did so far:
1. Market Research for US Market Expansion, including potential market and market size
2. Analyze and propose mid-term and long term strategy roadmap
3. Market Research for annual budgeting and proposal
4. Analysis on acquisition of potential companies
Aside from that, I also participated in several meetings on European business development issues.
Wow it sounds much better once I've written it down....
