Uncle Dell is in Singapore! finally! although I just saw you half a year ago. He has been in SIngapore for barely 2 days, and he has had his laksa, bak kwa. short of satays and black jack. Did you know he printed a deck of cards with the picture of him and joan zeze? haha still, that is not going to help u win money!
and today is the 30th of the month. last night, my mum was baking cake, tidying up the house (the house never seems tidy even with so much tidying up), went to ntuc to buy our new year goodies, came home and decorated the house somemore, waited for the cake to be baked (3 hours!) and went to sleep at 230. cny is no joke man!
then woke up at 7 this morning for piano class. not enough sleep plus prolonged wearing of contact lens = red eyes. lesson was bad cos i din practise and i was sleepy. after that, went to shaun's house for annual cny lunch. went to chinatown with uncle dell. finally had a chance to come home in the afternoon. uncle dell is now more tolerant of the heat and the walking i believe, which is good training!
alright my house is hosting the international relatives meeting. my cousin had flown in from china and uncle dell from usa. makes cny all the more exciting!
not to foget audit indiv assignment, corp reporting, EF and CAT project!!!
Happy CNY!!
I started this blog back in university days. It documented my overseas change in Europe. And now, I hope to use this to record my thoughts during my Jakarta job posting. Plenty of alone time here, in the apartment, in traffic jams, and I hope I can capture my thoughts on paper.

Last year yesterday, I spent it eating steamboat with 4 girls and doing all the stuff girls do - taking nonsensical and fun pictures. this year, i spent it with a CAT mid term and an audit book. nonetheless it was still a good day. i had a stranger knocking on my door. i was out of the mushy smu long before ppl started offering me free almost withered roses. I got my nice fragant lilies from dkny. thank you very much and i truly appreciate it.
and uncle dell is probably in san francisco waiting to board his plane now. and poor speedy and mona lisa will have to spend 10 days with the vet. let's hope speedy is not overweight.
we celebrated siu's 21st birthday early in advance, taking into account everyone's hectic schedules and mid terms. it was my first successful birthday. sometimes, u feel that it is worth the effort for someone.
chinese new year is coming. i hope everyone who are overseas can catch a whiff of what is going on here. chinatown, bak kwa, god of fortune. i will try to post some pictures. meanwhile, more projects. before that 2 more mid-terms.
and puee, i hope ur good luck is replenishing!
