I consider myself busy these last few days although I still managed to watch two movies yesterday. Yep, “the Pianist” and “Kolya”. Both are very touching movies specially “Kolya”, I cried over “Kolya” although I didn’t cried as much as when I watched “the Kite Runner”, because “Kolya” have some comedy in it so it [...]

I am quite pleased. From 55 kilos last February, I am now down to 52 kilos. I wanted to lose two kilos more to give me an allowance for an upcoming holiday to the land of the best chocolate cakes and schnitzel—Austria. We only have three weeks before the holiday so I am not sure [...]

I think I just broke Marcus’ Nikon D80 camera. I am not sure how it happened but I was the last one to use it last week when I got bored and decided to play dress up. I placed the camera on the stand and took pictures of myself using the remote.

I remember cursing this place, this city, and this country several times. There are a lot of things about it that I never seem to have gotten used to but some how it is sad that we are leaving this place soon.
The plan is we will move to Europe. Marcus already ordered boxes so we [...]

I’ve been to Japanese restaurants a few times before and based on those few times, I concluded that Japanese food doesn’t agree with me. Other than the fact that those raw fish always give me a funny feeling in my stomach which will later make me running to the toilet, I also hate wasabi and [...]

It’s positive 16 degrees outside and I am really pleased that the weather is getting better unlike few weeks ago. I was already able to go out with my open toed sandals to attend my German lesson yesterday without getting frostbites (haha). Soon, I will be able to wear my summer dresses and sling shoes!

I was reading my friend’s blog awhile back and she wrote something about colloidal silver in her health page. As I remember, we were taught that colloidal silver is not good for our well being and I was wondering how my friend could promote a thing like that considering that she is a nurse. She [...]
