We just might get one later

By | December 18, 2007

DB’s computer konked out on him yesterday.  It is dead and nothing seems to be power that thing up.  He really need to get the computer working since he has all his business stuff stored in the hard drive.  If this computer continues to misbehave, we have no choice but to get a new notebook [...]

The ease of audio books

By | December 17, 2007

I have never heard of Audio Books until I saw DB bought them for his listening pleasure.  He started buying them when he worked at his last company as it helped him past the time.  He said these books are great because instead of reading you are only listening to it and for him, he “gets” [...]

Enroll or not to enroll

By | December 17, 2007

Spring semester starts next month, January 4, 2008 to be exact.  I thinking of enrolling for a Physical Geology class or Intro to Sociology.  But I really don’t feel up to it at all.  It must be the vacation that is making me so lazy.  These two classes are mandatory and are both 4 credits [...]

Looking for a new domain

By | December 17, 2007

It has been six months since I bought my own domain.  I really like to work with my own domain that is host by some one else.  It is convenient and the freedom of doing what I want on my site.  Also, should I have any questions, I can place a toll-free call to the [...]

Ipoh, a place to relax

By | December 17, 2007

*I’m now writing my recollection of our trip  to Malaysia so I can always go back and read them whenever I want.  They are going to be long posts, so if you feel like it’s too much, you may skip them.* Both Db and I had a very enjoyable vacation.  The start of our vacation, [...]

DB Christmas gift?

By | December 14, 2007

This year’s Christmas will be a little bit more lighter than the previous years.  I asked DB what he wants for Christmas, he said he already had what he wanted – his trip to Malaysia.  However, I am still thinking of getting him a french press or maybe I should take a look at the  espresso [...]

Workout machine

By | December 14, 2007

When we moved to our rented house 2 years ago, I dreaded to walk the boys in the heat.  The reason was in that particular neighborhood, there were hardly any mature trees.  All the trees along the sidewalks were so skinny that do not give any shade at all.  What I did was I bought [...]

Window shopping in KL

By | December 14, 2007

I did so much window shopping in KL I think I am done for the rest of the year.  I wanted to buy so many things while I was in KL.  I yearned for more electronic gadgets, diamond pendants, and shoes.  I do not wear a lot of shoes, but I still like to get [...]

Updates

By | December 14, 2007

Today is my first day back to work.  Since I am still not taking any solids, I am so weak.  Feel like a baby who can’t eat solids yet.  I tried to eat solids yesterday, but it didn’t sit well in my stomach.  What will I have for meals today  at work?  Soup and more [...]

More pet friendly hotels

By | December 14, 2007

Since we have two dogs, which are Labrador Retrievers, it is not easy to travel with them especially when we need to stay in a hotel.  I recalled when DB and I were traveling to Rochester for the weekend, we had to keep the dogs at a friend’s house since there are not many Pet [...]

What a kick ass bug!

By | December 12, 2007

Today is the 3rd day I’m hooked to this stomach bug.  On Monday early afternoon, I asked DB to take me to Urgent Care right away.  I was already going to the bathroom so many times I totally lost count of it, and how many times I threw up, I couldn’t remember.  Whatever water I [...]

Goodbye Malaysia!

By | December 8, 2007

Hello Singapore!  I bid farewell to my parents, sister, BIL and their kids at KLIA.  I have never cried so much since I left Malaysia back in 1997.  Cried all the way out of KLIA and touched down to Singapore.  I already missed my family even before I left KLIA.  It really sucks.  I don’t [...]
