Ugh!

ugh... down with flu... got caught unaware by the sudden drop in temperature. :( really sucks to fall sick while you are abroad, especially if you are overseas for work. Cant get the rest that I really need. :(

Leaving again...

Leaving for next trip next weekend... company trip this time. Quite stressed as there's lots to do before going and sure to have much more to do when I'm back. Anyway taking 1 step at a time. No point to think so much. haha~

My 1st Europe Trip...

7~18 May 2009
Central Europe - Paris, Switzerland, Italy
Went as a foursome and came back as a group of 24.
Good weather, no traffic or queues, nice food...
Skies that miraculously cleared up just before we leave the place...
Snow that still covered the Swiss Alps even though we are in the mid of May...
Feather snow that fell ever so lightly when we were on the mountain tops...
The snowstorm that raged, while we were out on the cliff, which highlighted the harshness of nature and the fragility of life...
Gypsies who opened our eyes to another face of life...
and most importantly, superb companions...
Thank you God, Thank you everyone for such a wonderful trip.

PS. More pics coming up.

Grandma's 80th Birthday

Celebrated my grandma's 80th birthday today at Carousel, a buffet restaurant in Royal Plaza on Scotts, with a few close relatives. Very happy day for all of us, with good food and many jokes and catch-ups.

Grandma's cake, from my aunt, bought from Carousel that came with a special birthday song sang by their staff... yummy~!!!

Beautiful
