Why no blog?

Cos I have been busy. Busy with...

1. Work - had to write report and I hate report writing! Took me the whole of thanksgiving week to complete it. But I still got to celebrate Thanksgiving for the first time though. My boss knowing this is our first time spending Thanksgiving in the US invited us to his house. Us include Tim, Neo and Zing too.

Had turkey with stuffing, sweet potatoes with rum and sugar syrup, pecan pie/pumpkin pie/cherry pie with ice-cream and lotsa wine (ok, i only took 2 sips). What a wonderful boss I have! And did I mention that the turkeys were cooked by him too?!! My boss is smart, charismatic, knowledgeable, rich, understandig, nice and a good chef too!

2. Study - It's time for my business valuation course/exam again! In less than 2 weeks' time, I will be LA taking my 2nd paper. So I gotta study hard now or so I say....

3. Play - No time to play lar...Busy, busy, busy

4. Movin' House - We are moving house in less than 2 weeks' time so I gotta start packing. Wait a min, exam and moving house both in less than 2 weeks' time?!! Yeah, when I leave for LA next Wednesday, that will be the last time I get to see my current apartment. I will drive straight to my new home when I come back on Sunday. To a totally new environment just 15 mins away from office. Goody good..no more bad traffic!

5. Shopping - Went to a few places to get stuff for my family and friends in Spore cos Wen and Sillier decided to head home last min. Walmart, Harwin, Katy Mills, & Galleria for necklaces, shirt, cards and foodstuff. Guess what? I forgot to pass them the Nautica polo tee I bought for my dad. Argh!! Peiwen, make sure you come to the US in Jan ya....then I can lompang you to bring it back to Spore. :P

6. Dramas - Last but not least, I have been busy catching up on past seasons of 24, no thanks to Tim who kept pestering me to watch even when I said I wanna study. Oh did I mention that he got pissed off with me when I kept talking on the phone and ignored him when he asked me to watch Grey's Anatomy? Come on, Tim getting angry lei...usually he won't get angry over nothing. But he actually was so mad with me that he didnt talk to me for a day!!! haha...

That's all folks. Time to go back to studying..or Project Superstar on youtube? Youtube rox!

Wonders of Technology

Thanks to Starhub digital voice travel, we are now just a phone call away. The digital voice works just like your usual residential line. Anyone can just give us a buzz from the Singapore land line or on their mobile phone. What is even better is that it is absolutely free except for the initial cost of S$140 for getting the phone modem. This modem is attached to our internet here in the US. All we had to do is to get another phone to connect to the phone modem. The line comes with call-waiting and caller ID too although that is only available for the first 3 months.

Nevertheless, be it you call me from Singapore or I call you using my new line, there are absolutely no charges other than the usual few cents that you pay for using a land line or the cellphone for calling out. So, call us whenever you are free. But don't forget we are 14 hours behind Singapore time!Our number is 64922447.

Oh did I mention, the last four digits (jumbled) came out as 2nd prize in the 4-D draw last weekend. Of course we never buy lar...
