Celebration # 1
It didn’t exactly pan out as planned but amazingly, we still managed to get some good times out of it. It’s really true that it’s the company that matters. y’know…
Planning is good and safe … but frightfully BORING!
The weekend was everything but boring.

Me & My Mee Goreng
There are a few places one can go for mee goreng in Penang. Different folks will have different favourite places to satisfy their Mee Goreng craving. For me, there are 4 places worth mentioning.

Onsen, ga?
“No trip to Japan is complete without getting an Onsen experience in the countryside” - so I have been told.
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to savour Creolean food. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. I soon realised that I could very easily fall in love with Creolean cuisine.

Global Handshake
I said “Good evening”
She said “Good morning”
He said “Good afternoon”

Last week, a galfriend emailed me an interesting recipe that tickled my curiosity. Together with some galfriends, we decided to give the recipe a try over the weekend - with some minor tweaking of our own (we didn’t like the creamy topping and decided to substitute with vanilla ice-cream).

Nice, bo?
While I am stuck at home ploughing thru conference calls with folks from different corners of the globe going “Good morning, good afternoon and good evening, depending on where you’re at!”, he sent me these.

Blessings
Today, I’d like to count my blessings.
- For my wonderfully supportive boss who is constantly shoving opportunities my way. It’s IMPOSSIBLE not to stand out amongst the global leaders at the rate he is going! No, I am not complaining. Just a tad worried that I may disappoint some folks and worse, disappoint ME. But just a tad.
- For my ability to grow some instant ‘balls’ and take on the challenges thrown my way.
- For having the most versatile parents. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have achieved all those crazy things that no1 in our family has ever dreamt of doing.
- For my friends from all phases of my Life. The ones in school, the ones in Uni, the ones at work, the ones that appear out of nowhere - I love them all to bits!
- For my acquaintances. How else will I learn to appreciate my friends?
- For my Sweetheart and his family. Always making me feel special in so many ways. When he calls and goes “Elo, watcha doing???” in his super manja way. The many precious things his mom does for me. The love and the warmth from the rest of his family. A woman could not ask for more.
- Most importantly, for my passion in Life. WIthout it, I wouldn’t have passed all those tests God threw my way. It was my passion that drove me on. To constantly strive for more out of Life and what it has to offer.
- Also not forgetting, for YOU. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing this.
Oh indeed, I am well and truly blessed.
Earlier this week, I wrote about this.
.
Today, I am writing to SHOUT OUT to the whole world that I am insanely in love with it!!!

R u ‘Or Lor’?
Or-Lor or Tèh
*The Hokkien folks (especially the Penangites) will know what I mean*

The Malay language has a word for it - ‘manja’ - but the English language does seem to have the right word for it.

Freedom
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!

Those were the words reverberating through the air on August 31, 1957 - the day our nation obtained Independance. Except that the original words were not in English…but you get the idea.
