The worse heart break is your HDD getting corrupted and erasing all your data, projects, photos, and memory, and you have a pending partner report.. Good thing the street taught us how to deal with these cases, and I couldn't have any better name to rename it.

Day 38 : For the first time in 9 years, our Land base survey has reported zero Humpback whale sightings during the peak period. This unprecedented absence has also impacted local operators who were gearing up for whale watching tours this year.
