The Thursday that just passed was Thanksgiving.
This year, we have a colleague transferred in from our American office and to help her celebrate, our department had a Thanksgiving lunch with her at Cedele.
The lunch was uneventful; but it made me think about the things that we have often taken for granted in life, and how [...]

To KL and back

It has been 17 months since I last travelled out of the country; for work or leisure. On Wednesday, I made a work day trip to KL alone.
I bought a trolley bag beforehand and stuffed everything I needed for the day in. It was a great relief because otherwise I would have to lug around [...]
Something different and new

I went to a seminar the other day organised by my ex-firm. It was unlike the previous technical ones I have attended before. For one, I have never attended a seminar that has drink coasters bearing the organiser’s logo. Usually at these seminars, we’d get a pack with technical materials and an occasional complimentary post-it [...]

I have been so swarmed at work recently that time just flies by in the office.
To think that I originally planned to clear my leave during Christmas.. I can pretty much kiss that thought goodbye now, with the boss being out of office for the last 2 weeks of the year. Well, I still took [...]

This is a photo we took this morning after she had a little mishap this morning with a stroller. If you look closely, there are a couple of red marks on her nose and bridge of nose (is that the correct term?). Despite the little episode, she was back to her old self after a [...]

I was surfing Cedele’s website yesterday while looking for a cake for SIL’s birthday and saw that they have opened a branch at IBP!!!
A colleague and I went to suss it out today and we returned from lunch with a big and happy belly filled to the brim with hearty wild mushroom soup, wholesome bread [...]

The primary school I attended had a dentist’s office. Twice a year, we will take turns to be called to the dentist’s office where a pretty and gentle nurse will clean, scale and polish our teeth. She’d even throw in a free lesson on brushing your teeth properly. Occasionally, we’d have our milk teeth yanked out [...]

Me and KJ have always liked Wang Lee Hom’s music. We like that he writes his own stuff and we admire his musical talent tremendously. In fact, the car CD changer are mostly his CDs. So, yes. We know most of his songs by hard. Except the rock/heavy metal/rap/chinked out ones.
We have gone to both [...]
