Happy Chinese New Year! Well, it’s almost here. Year of the moo moo, my year! Which sadly means I’m 24 this year. The years just fly by. Opened one of our prized cans of abalone yesterday. Savoured every bit of it. We even saved the brine to use in my cooking.
colourful candy
Thung Han came home from California and brought some candy for all. I was attracted to the colours and had a tough time picking out the ones I wanted. After I was down to 10 (6 brightly coloured ones, 4 dull), I couldn’t decide which 2 I wanted. Thung Han said I could have all, as in all 10. Yay!…
school is almost starting again
My bad for the no-update. I’m currently enjoying the last few days of winter break. Come Tuesday it’ll be back to being a chao mugger. I already received some not too good news regarding one of the subjects I’m taking – ADV410. Prof Olsen emailed to “warn” us of the schedule which includes lots of presentations and projects. “Presentation” –…
2009
I know this is kinda late, but 明けましておめでとう! I ushered in the new year in the hotel in Anchorage, eating Nong Shim (super spicy cup noodle), and watching the countdown at Times Square, New York on tv. I am now at Fairbanks. I pray that the new year starts off good. Please let me see an aurora. I don’t make new year…
have a moose in your backyard
Welcome to Alaska! The land of below freezing temperatures, knee-deep snow, and moose in your backyard. No kidding. We just saw one outside the hotel next to ours. It was happily munching on the vegetation just outside the back door of that hotel. Imagine someone goes out through the back door and…WHOA. :woot: I spotted the huge animal while we…

stuck at kansas city
Right now, am at Kansas City airport. Hooray for free internet! Not all US airports offer free Wi-Fi. Listening to Ayu’s “Days”. I could put that song on repeat mode. I love the lyrics, especially certain lines. Anyway, trying to get out of a VERY horrible start to my Winter break holiday. We were supposed to be in Seattle on…
new queen of angst
Move over Avril Lavigne, coz Kerli Koiv is the new queen of angst. Oh well, I forgot that Avril Lavigne is no longer an angry lil’ teen. She’s now all pink and happy. Anyway, I was checking out Youtube for Kanon Wakeshima’s PVs when I happened to stumble upon Kerli’s MTV for “Walking On Air”. Some googling around and I…
some snow from usa
Enjoy some snow from Urbana, Illinois. Taken today.
days
I’m a sucker for ballads. I love Ayu’s new single and the pv for it. I don’t really like sad endings, so I sort of gasped when I watched the pv. You have to watch it to know why… I don’t care if she’s 30. She looked so cute when she was excited in the pv.
