Footprints » Duty travel

Frank went away last week, yes..again. I think he travels a wee bit more this time around, more like once every 10 days though the best part is at least its 3 – 4 days instead of an entire week. This time, duty calls to Resolute Bay/Resolute. Its pretty darn cool though. 2nd most northern […] [Link]

Footprints » Week 1 – Stash Game

You know its coming I think I did ok, not overly productive like I want to be but I dont get to sew much during the day anymore and Frank went away this week so the kids were on “movie overload” in the sewing room with me part of the weekend. But the game […] [Link]

WMD: Wife, Mother and Daughter » Homework

Oh my….homework. I was expecting tonnes of homework given that RE is in a chinese school. OK…maybe it is still early part of the year. Homework are manageable and in fact, can be completed within 15-30mins. Or at the maximum an hour. My nightmare is not dealing with the homework as it is mostly writing. Even the chinese writing is … [Link]

WMD: Wife, Mother and Daughter » The heat, the school and RE's eczema

Penang is going to a drought period…i think. It has been scorching hot and the brown fallen leaves cover the road. To an extent is almost like autumn minus the cool weather. The only rain that we had was on Saturday night and this afternoon. Sometimes when I drive home in that scorching heat, I hear over the radio about … [Link]

WMD: Wife, Mother and Daughter » RE first month at school.

However, his shoes are still horribly dirty and socks too. Due to the very very hot weather here in Penang, he comes home with a very red … [Link]

Books Love Me! » Reading now: The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger

It's Monday and I'm in the middle of The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. Sadly, the literary world recently lost one of its celebrated authors as Salinger passed away at the age of 91 on Jan 27, 2010. An article on him was published in The Star newspaper. I haven't read it yet…therefore, I'm sort of bookmarking it … [Link]

PianoForte » Snow Again~

It's amusing that on Wednesday night around 8pm, when I randomly checks on Facebook, saw my friend's status update saying that Tokyo is snowing, again. I was sort of surprised and when I look out to the window, yep, it's indeed snowing. The reason why I was caught surprised with it is because it wasn't reported on the day's weather … [Link]

PianoForte » Chinese New Year Videos

Having to spend my Chinese New Year here this year, surely it's something I'll dearly missed as not able to celebrate this annual festive season with the family. Heard that this year both sisters are returning except for me, ah well. The last time the complete family celebrate Chinese New Year together was in 2007, and in 08 and 09 … [Link]

PianoForte » Discoveries

These few days I've been wondering around on my bicycle, and the outcome has been pretty good, something I didn't expected hah.First, is the discovery of a 2nd hand goods store located not far from the daily commuting route. Instead of turn right as usual, I took the left route and discovered the shop.The section which stirs my interest is … [Link]

PianoForte » Fixing the Harddisk

Thursday have to sacrifice having lunch together with bunch of friends in order to get back earlier to settle the computer's problem.As expected from Japanese's service quality, the technician reached just few mins before 1:30pm as I was informed that he'll arrive within 1:30~2:00pm. No complains to have him reached earlier, since I'm back in my room already.While the technician … [Link]

PianoForte » Computer Harddisk Problem

This afternoon I got another shock of my life when I came back to my room. I believe many computer geeks would have similar phobia, that is booting up the computer showing nothing but a dead blank screen. It's able to show the Dell's logo but it couldn't load the Windows Vista's loading screen (which shows the bars loading). The … [Link]

PianoForte » Crippled Without the Internet

This post was written while my Internet is down on Sunday. This morning I was awaken by Caphy’s call around 1030am in the morning. I’m kinda blur when I answer her but the moment she asked whether I can connect to the net, I sensed something isn’t right. The first thing I do when I wake up is to turn … [Link]

PianoForte » Sushi & Haircut

After the awesome things I've done yesterday, decided to reward myself a little luxurious by having late sushi lunch with friends. This Totoyamichi (ととやみち) is located not so far away from the hostel and I've ate here for a few times already.Today's special, Extra Large Anago (特大あなご). It's very long and definitely one of the best anago I ever eaten … [Link]

PianoForte » Confirm Room, Visa, Shop at Ikebukuro

I had a nice sleep after being exhausted yesterday. Anyway, the outcome is positive so it's worth all the efforts to rush here and there.Friday morning's breakfast. A little luxurious but I need to skip my lunch so I take this set.McD's Mega McMuffin. Underneath it is bacon, egg, 2 meat patties and the killer melted cheese. Mmmm….McD's coffee isn't … [Link]

PianoForte » Blog Statistics

The other day when I was browsing through this blog's archives I noticed the post count listed on each month. Not a Maths freak myself but decided to put in all the figures and make a statistical "report" of it.So far this is the breakdown of each posts I've posted (published) from Nov 2004 to Dec 2009.Simply put it in … [Link]

PianoForte » Tetsu Tsukemen

Rainy day in Tokyo today, usually it's not really a good news as I have to take the train to school ($$$), but this time I gotta thank the rain for giving me the opportunity to taste one of the best tsukemen (つけ麺; broth-dipping noodle) in town.Had this lunch with friend after our daily dose of table tennis game, and … [Link]

PianoForte » Shadow Penalty Kick

Was riding by the Arakawa riverside today, and spotted this empty football field. Was excited of course given that I'm a big fan of football lol.Stopped awhile, had this crazy idea of taking continuous photos with me taking "shadow penalty kick" hah. Managed to compile the pics into this "video". [Youtube link][Flickr link] This time instead of using Windows Movie … [Link]

PianoForte » First Week Back To School

After the 3 weeks long winter holiday, I'm back to the language school on Wednesday. We were fortunate to start 2 days later as most Japanese are back in school or workplace on Monday.The day started with Yamaguchi sensei's class.

PianoForte » My Names, CLF

Was checking through my documents today to apply for scholarship, and flipped through my secondary school's record book.Sort of nostalgic to look at the statistics recorded in the book, while the mind's reflecting what it has been during that particular year.One interesting thing I noticed is my names (yes, plural) written by each year's class teacher. I had 5 different … [Link]

PianoForte » Earphones Macro Shots

I was kinda bored the other day so decided to take some pics of the earphones lying around the table. After tested awhile I find it to be quite a good exercise to practise macro shots.These are actually a very basic pair of earphones by Sony, MDR-E10LP.The Sony Walkman logo.Closeup of the main casing unit. The casing is semi-transparent so … [Link]

PianoForte » Tokyo Sky Tower

Today I had this crazy idea of exploring nearby area randomly without setting a destination. I like to do so from time to time to explore new places around, and after a few more months I'm moving out from Tokyo.While I was cycling near Minowa (三ノ輪), spotted this tall structure far away, the under construction Tokyo Sky Tree (東京スカイツリー).I've read … [Link]

PianoForte » Adidas Scorch Mb+

The other day when I went to Omotesando with friend, we walked into Adidas shop and started to browse around. Soon my eyes set on a rack which piled up with shoes and some accessories. The rack was stuck with the word "SALE" so it must be some sort of stock clearance. A white colour sports-shoe caught my attention, and … [Link]

PianoForte » 2009, the year that was

Well this is the end of the year again. Wow….. Come and think of it, this year seems like passed quite fast. To be honest few weeks ago I wasn't still prepared for new year yet, only when the decorations turned from Christmas trees to the bamboo shoots (Japan's new year deco), I realised that 2009 will soon be a … [Link]

PianoForte » Tokyo Tower & Avatar

Ever since I came to Tokyo, I've always wanted to see one of Tokyo's landmark, the Tokyo Tower up-close.First encounter, Tokyo Tower from distance away when I went to explore the Imperial Palace in May.It's just a mere 332.5m height, and it's not that you can see it from anywhere in Tokyo.

KTemoc Konsiders …….. » MIC virus affecting all Indian-based parties?

I feel sad for Indian Malaysians when virtually every Indian-based political party has failed them because of, in my opinion, their so-called leaders’ personal interests.MIC is of course notorious for having failed the community it claims to represent, for God’s sake, for the last f* 52 years, so let’s not talk about this ‘Must I Come’ party anymore.The Makkal Sakhti … [Link]

Viva Woman » Would you go to a neighbourhood hair salon?

Copyright © www.vivawoman.net I skipped the DIY hair coloring and went to a neighbourhood hair salon some weeks ago to have my hair highlighted instead.

Memoirs of a Chocoholic » Dave's Pizza, Pasta & Grill @ One Utama

One of the few non-Halal restaurants in One Utama Shopping Centre's old wing….My goodness - this non-Halal restaurant has actually been in One Utama for years, but this is the first time I've tried it… (Erm, better late than never?): Neon lights…Inside, it's comfortable but very dimly lit… Romantic lighting? I guess so:Kinda dim inside…Overall, the ambience is normal, I … [Link]

Journal Of The Whills » London vacation rentals

I’ve never been to London before or the UK in general. Maybe it’s time I make the effort while I’m still young to enjoy it. I don’t have any family nor friends there so I’ll have to find some accommodation if I don’t want to sleep on the streets. Instead of hotels I’m thinking London vacation rentals that involve luxury … [Link]
