Website was down

This website was down for between 1.5 to 2 days. So was my email services. Services were only just fully restored.

Apparently, there was a fire at my service provider’s data center that caused a power outage. I heard some of the Facebook applications were affected.

Duh!

No life for a while

I have enrolled for a part-time course which will take up three nights a week for the rest of the year. Yeah, I couldn’t believe it myself.

But no change of plan for Japan and New Zealand.

Good luck to me.

Baby Kaelyn has arrived

Did I mention that I’m an uncle for the third time?

My sister just gave birth to my little niece on Wednesday morning.

I’m confused…

…am I entrusted with my job? Or am I just supposed to be a puppet?

鱼 – 陈绮贞

我坐在椅子上 看日出复活
我坐在夕阳里 看城市的衰弱
我摘下一片叶子 让它代替我
观察离开后的变化

曾经 狂奔 舞蹈 贪婪的说话
随着冷的湿的心 腐化

带不走的 丢不掉的 让大雨侵蚀吧
让他推向我在边界 奋不顾身挣扎
如果有一个怀抱 勇敢不计代价
别让我飞 将我温柔豢养

我坐在椅子上 看日出复活
我坐在夕阳里 看城市的衰弱
我摘下一片叶子 让它代替我
观察离开后的变化

曾经 狂奔 舞蹈 贪婪的说话
随着冷的湿的心 腐化

带不走的留不下的 我全都交付他
让他捧着我在手掌 自由自在挥洒
如果有一个世界 浑浊的不像话
原谅我飞 曾经眷恋太阳

带不走的丢不掉的 让大雨侵蚀吧
让它推向我在边界 奋不顾身挣扎
如果有一个世界 浑浊的不像话
我会疯狂的爱上

带不走的留不下的 我全都交付他
让他捧着我在手掌 自由自在挥洒
如果有一个怀抱 勇敢不计代价
别让我飞 将我温柔豢养

原谅我飞 曾经眷恋太阳

Get your facts right, people. Susan Boyle didn’t lose; she just didn’t win.

Nogawa

Chee Wee and I went to Nogawa on Wednesday. This was our second trip there together. Chee Wee paid for the first visit. That was a record breaker for the bill. This time I was returning the treat. We didn’t exceed the previous bill, but it was close.

We noticed that there were less people there for dinner, compared to our previous visit. Maybe it’s due to the current economic woes.

Our server was a courteous and kind lady. She made several good recommendations. Every dish that was served, she will give a quick introduction of the dish and the right way to enjoy it.

Dinner was fantastic. It had to be, considering the bill. Next time, I think we should try their variety of sushi.

jellyfish

baby squid with “dunno what” sauce; seasonal tomato on top left

assorted sashimi (bonito, salmon, tuna, scallop)

tuna belly!! yum yum!

kobe beef and foie gras

can’t remember what it’s called, but it’s clam and soup lah; chee wee took half the clam meat then realised we haven’t took a picture yet

mixed tempura

fresh raw oyster; super fresh!!

seasonal mountain vegetables

steamed egg custard with shark’s fin; the smoothest egg custard I had, the mini mushrooms were great too

seasonal grilled fish; forgot to ask what fish was that, i took a bite before chee wee took this shot

plum wine jelly; with a glass of brown tea

Singapore Women’s Everest Team

Well done to all six ladies of the team. One didn’t make it to the top, but I’m sure she had tried her best.

Land of the rising sun and the flying pigs…

…swine flu, that is.

Barring a swine flu pandemic in Japan, or the whole world, I should visit Japan from 22-30 Aug.

Crossing my fingers!!

There’s a conspiracy against me…

by the petrol companies.

Bloody hell! Everytime I decide to pump petrol the next day, I will find out at night that they had just increased the prices earlier in the day.

Ptui!
