I've been spending a lot of time on another project of mine.  One that will help me learn thing and hopefully open new doors for me. But unfortunately that has meant little to no time on this blog.  So with some regret I'll be closing this blog down. I just want to thank you all for visiting this blog.  Its been good fun and I've learnt a lot.   Of course this is not

I'm back at school!! Well - pseudo-school anyways :) I'm doing distance-education which is studying by correspondence.  The study in our house is my campus.  And it's an awesome campus! I can go to class in my PJ's, Lychi is my classmate and the kitchen is literally just around the corner! SWEET!!!! I got my student card last week which is so HORRENDOUS I can't even bare

"A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. Give him your heart and he'll give you his. How many people can you say that about? How many people can make you feel rare and pure and special? How many people can make you feel extraordinary?" - John Grogan Anh and I watched Marley and Me last night.

Its my birthday week and we've been doing lots of eating!!   Yumm!!! I really should stop these huge birthday dinners coz I'm sure their starting to affect my health. But how can you say no to eating ?  :P Had a lovely birthday this year.  Got some quality time with my families (plural now!) and we all had a good time. Such a contrast from last years big 30th mexican

We celebrated Mother's day this year with a fishing weekend in Bunbury with my parents, brother and sister. Bunbury is so beautiful.  Its one of the few places in Perth where you can wake up and watch the sun rise. On this fishing trip, I didn't get much fishing time.  Nor did I catch any fish. But you know what, being with my Dad and Mom, and watching them catch those

Went to my first music festival a few weeks ago! Supafest showcased some of my favourite RnB singers like Nelly, Taio Cruz and Timbaland.  Other artists who made an appearance include Snoop Dog, Ciara, Keri Hilson, Fat Joe and T-Pain. Too bad Timbaland pulled out the last minute, but it was still very enjoyable.  Can't beat a day with friends and good music! The festival started

This year's Good Friday was especially sad because Anh's granddad passed away. Edgar's been battling cancer for a long time and the damage to his liver has taken its toll. We visited Nana this afternoon and she's coping well.  She said she's already missing him but she's happy that he's not suffering anymore and he's gone to a better place. I admire Nana's courage and

Went paintballing with Anh, her sister and friends. Maaaan it was intense!! I've been paintballing before so I kinda knew what to expect.  But after they demonstrated the new guns during the safety brief,  I got really worried. These guns were badass!!  They launch the marble-sized paintballs perfectly straight for about 5 metres and still packed a punch at 10 metres.

I'd like to introduce the newest member for our family - Lychi the Pug!! Having a pug has been a lifelong dream for Anh. Over the years of Anh talking about pugs and seeing pugs on calendars and movies and YouTube clips, posters and cards and toys and everywhere around the house, I've grown fond of their weird yet wonderfully adorable face. We purchased Lychi from a family of pug breeders in

What would you do if you were told that you only have five months to live? Or just as important, what would you do if your partner had only five months to live?I know this is such a gloomy subject. And I know I'm sounding like a life insurance salesman but these questions hit me real hard a few weeks ago. A few freaky things happened which reminded me just how fragile life is and that were on

I just wanted to put in writing how thankful I am to have so many wonderful people in my life. My wife, my parents, my brothers and sisters, my friends.  I've been really busy with all sorts of things but I'm always grateful that you're there a part of my life journey. God bless to all.

Sorry blog.  I've been neglecting you.  I promise to write some stuff soon, but I've just been busy with a lot of things - been working on my tax return, working on a friend's webpage and I've been working on my second platinum trophy.

We took a break from the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong and enjoyed a few days in Macao. Macao is the mini-Las Vegas of Asia with all its casino's and apparently dodgey places... but I never got to explore that part :)  We stayed in the Venetian which is the largest hotel in Asia.  Really posh.  The hotel even has its own river - complete with Gondola and singer!

January has shaped up to be a fantastic start to 2011.   Apart from the flu, which got me two days off work, its been good news after good news! 1. After our honeymoon in Hong Kong, I came home to an order that has been six months in the making - my new car! Very happy with Giselle (that's the name Anh's given the car).  She goes like the wind and has these very hypnotic eyes. &

I'm sick.  :(  But still blogging :P It could be post holiday depression but its most likely a cold caught from our return flight from Singapore - there was a girl who was coughing and sniffing near us.  My wife has is it too, so were a pair of sick birds lolz Its really unpleasant being sick during summer with the hot weather and having runny nose. Yuckers! But enough of that -

I can't wait for 2010 to end.  Not that it will alleviate the mess thats happened at work - the crazy series of events that's left me stressed and tired all the past few weeks. :( 2011 brings the promise of new and wonderful things which I'm hoping will just clear my head of work stuff. Perhaps the two weeks holiday beginning New Years Day will do. Stress - get out of my head

I'm selling my car. My Mazda baby. The Mazda is the second car I've ever owned and I've been very happy with her (unlike the horrible Chrysler). I've had so many good memories with the Mazda and I'm very glad I had the oppurtunity to zoom zoom around in her. Mazda Defensive Driving Course I do feel a tad guilty selling her (it feels like I'm betraying the good memories) but it needs to be

I'm so sad lolz :P After the halloween party, my electric shaver went on holidays and since then I've been growing a beard. The thing is, I'm not growing it because I think it looks good (im not even growing it for a good cause- Movember). I'm just growing it as an experiment to see if I can grow one at all! Coz not all asian guys can grow beards, they grow whiskers some guys. On the plus side

It's been a tremendous experience, one that's too big for words.  So many ups and downs and things that go sideways!?  Its something I wouldn't do again that's for sure!  But if I had a chance to change anything, I

I survived week 4 which was my bucks/bachelor's party week.  I had a great time catching up with my friends but nearly lost a liver from the excessive drinking.  Amazon woman was hot. lolz.  I didn't spill my guts, but I think should have as I paid for it dearly the following Sunday.
