My mini adventure in Seoul















I would consider myself as quite an adventurous person. Love to explore new places alone, expecially at a foreigh land, without knowing a word of local language. Done it before in a number of places... France, Spain, Miami ( at Brazilian area) and to add on to my list - Korea! Korean poeple are super friendly and helpful, though we don't speak a common language, using sign language and pointing on the map is enough to get by! Even though they don't know how to tell you the direction, they take you there in person! Despite the additional 10-20 minutes detour! Love the place!!

Friend of 26 years...















The first friend I've ever known in my life - Ka Mei, a friend of 26 years just recently got married. I made a trip back to Malaysia to attend her wedding. Great to see her finally find a better half and happily married. And happy to catch up with many long lost friends during the wedding!

"Yuuuuuuummmm Siiinnnnggg!!"

Summer has passed, Fall is over and Winter is here

I had a super busy summer (as usual... more stuff to do under the sun). Let's recap:

1. July 4 weekend - went to Miami for a join bacholerette/bacholer party, great time... will post some pictures later

2. Planned for the Malaysian Gala

3. Dragon boat race - lead the team to earn a trophy!

4. Formed a tennis team - won a few matches, but lost overall. The whole team is hooked by tennis now, gearing up for Spring season.

5. Of course, works......


Then, a busy fall season.

1. Went home to Malaysia to see my family and attended a childhood friend's wedding

2. Made a trip to Korea

3.Made my first Thanksgiving Turkey

4. Installed backsplash at the kitchen.... still have some touch up to do, looking quite good now!

5. First business trip to Canada

6. Run a 10k race in less than 61 mins


Now, the begining of winter...

1. Chirstmas ski trp @ Maggie Valley with buddies -- first time snowboarding, AWESOME!! Loving it! Will do it again soon!

2. Training for a half marathon coming up in early 2007

3. Attended a college buddy's brother graduation at University of Tennessee -- nice to be back to Knoxville after all these years. So much have changed, yet memories remain.
