I still smile at the last conscious thought of loving you just before I drift into slumber…
Christmas Day in London

This is the cool ‘wishing well’ where you call a number and say your wish and see it appear in this little enclosure after a few minutes. They couldn’t spell Gerard but well…aside from that minor glitch this was possibly the best gift I could think of, on Christmas Day when he is miles and [...]

…and here’s why… There was, of course, the awesome Thanksgiving spread we threw at Hamilton Court basement. Well, other than THAT… there was Mr G’s visit to Philly… He brought Mike’s Pastries for my housemates (and me) Italian pastries…Cannoli, Boston Cream puff and some peanut butter fudge brownie Lazed around at the Atlantic City beach…not [...]

Blissfully happy on the eve of my birthday…thinking all there was, was just a harmless cozy dinner with my housemates and extended ‘family’. “Oh no you don’t, Buddy!” – says the evil Saurabh… While Fiona and MingEn are KTV-ing singing Jay Chou songs…(I can see this story is well on its way to becoming an [...]
Overdue – Birthday Dinner!

This was the fabulous dinner that my housemates & extended housemates cooked for me! I was told to stay in my room, and wasn’t allowed to stay in the kitchen or attempt to help out with anything..but after awhile I got bored and decided to take pictures…eventually I got involved with fixing the curry anyway [...]

There were many more pretty photos but I kinda gave up uploading…zzz.. Boston, MA — pretty city with a spectacular harbor, perfect skyscape and quaint old city charm.. Portsmouth, New [...]

Cooked a nice humble dinner for the Ludlow boys and my buddy on Saturday…strange that I’m always taking pictures of food and not the people eating it (which ought to be of utmost importance~)! But Peirong always covers my a** so go find her blog or find pictures on facebook…oddly enough she still HASN’T given [...]

Haircut Decided that I had enough fun with my extensions…and missed my short bob, so I went back to it. Fiona from Two-Way who did my hair (: Bought the Archipelago Samui beer…it has calamansi and something else in it. Really quite refreshing. Then there was the trip to Wine Connection, where I ended up [...]
Long Weekend.

It was quite an eventful weekend, including the part where I fell ill with the cold. The virus has been going around the office and alas, I fell victim to it too. Couldn’t run away. Wine at Vino Vino Had a long wine session with Weili at Vino Vino. The awesome deal was that if [...]

The bulk of our time spent back in St Nicks today was in the canteen but before we get to the food… A beautiful reminder of how vast the school compound is. When I was there I didn’t think much of it…till I went to RJ at Mount Sinai… Fond memories of how Huiying’s voice [...]
It’s a wrap!

Wrapped up work on Friday. It has been an eye-opener, a learning experience and an enjoyable time…all 5 weeks of it. Appreciated the kindness of the people there and the sense of being welcomed. I couldn’t ask for more. The past year has been fulfilling and I hope 2008 matches that too. Can I just [...]
