left behind bags

I called up the airport to get news about my bags. They were left behind in Chicago. As what I guessed, didn’t get tagged on although they were supposed to be. Anyway, they are on flight UA895 and on the way home. I’m not sure which one but I hope it’s the one that’s landed already at 11+pm so I…

good to be home

I’m home now. But the worst thing happened. I don’t know where my checked-in luggage ended up. It was supposed to be tagged on to each flight so I wouldn’t have to recheck-in and would just pick them up in Singapore. The airport staff was nice though. She helped me make a report and well, we’ll just have to wait.…

the non-academic bit

And here comes the not-so-academic part… With all the school visiting more or less done, I can spend more time on other things like sightseeing and shopping. Not to mention nursing that nasty cough of mine. Yea, caught the flu bug from my cousin, Ethan. I got a good deal from the clothes I bought. Basically coz the shops are…

Daytime, aunty wants to take me around to schools and stuff. So most of the time I’m left with night time. Of which, I’m trying to divide my time to use the…

Yes, I’m alive and well in the States. My uncle has kindly lent me one of their many laptops to work on, check my email etc. The laptops must be really cheap here coz no way is someone going to have at least 5 laptops around their house back in Singapore. Even getting 2 desktops is going to make your…

getting emotional at the movies

Watched “Helen The Baby Fox” this afternoon with Sis. It’s a Japanese movie about a boy and his special bond with a blind and deaf baby fox. I’m not going to spill the contents of the movie. If you wanna know more, go watch it. It’s definitely worth it…especially if you’re an animal lover. I expected myself to tear as…

killing the spam

Another bout of spam comments. Don’t know whether to say it’s gone worse or it’s just as bad as the last time. Although there are considerably less spam comments than the last round, this time some have actually passed off as approved comments instead of getting filtered out for moderation. So I thought heck, it’s time to get a spam…
