    Destination: Kangaroo-Land.
    ++Saturday, December 18, 2010 ++



    Okay, I'm blogging this at the airport.

    In an hour's time I'll be leaving to visit the kangaroos and koala bears.

    A midsummer x'mas, yay or nay?

    Auf Wiedersehen!

    P/S: Thanks to SingTel, I'll be updating my facebook and twitter when possible.

    Anniversary!
    ++


    Okay it is mummy's birthday.

    And guess what?

    It is also the rent's anniversary!

    A dinner with my family and besties

    was possibly the best way to celebrate such an occasion.

    What can go better than a BFFs meet family?

    Alles Gute!

    ♫ Overtones.
    ++Tuesday, December 14, 2010 ++


    I have been coaching the little boys and gals back in

    my high school's string ensemble whenever I return to my hometown.

    It is voluntary, but in many ways it is a responsibility as an alumnus.

    Overtones wasn't a concert so successful to be complimented,

    but what was noteworthy and apparent was the enthusiasm among the youths.



    Not the most ideal venue to perform in, but be grateful,

    for most secondary schools can't afford a hall like this!


    Post-concert "high"ness.


    Hi-Fi: a division for the old.

    For more pictures of the concert, click here.



    ... and here's a video clip of the crazy boys and gals.

    What awaits us next?

    我爱华中弦乐团! Alles Gute!

    Both my love.

    reminiscence.
    ++Sunday, December 12, 2010 ++


    The recent event of changing facebook profile pictures to cartoon characters,

    for me, was more of reminiscing childhood memories

    rather than fighting child abuse.

    This is the very tiny collection of cartoon LD(s) I have.

    Yes, LaserDisc. Old school.

    Alles Gute!

    Harry.
    ++Saturday, December 11, 2010 ++


    I grew up with Harry.

    I've read through every single of them several times.

    It is rather disheartening to realise that even the films are coming to an end.

    The epic finale of a wonderous world created by JKR.

    Let's hope the best!

    P/S: Like the previous films, I've watched the current instalment thrice >.<

    Alles Gute!

    Greetings.

    10 . 12 . 2010

    A violin-packed day for me.

    Breakfast - coaching - lunch - practice - errands - dinner - rehearsal - supper.

    However, the highlight of the day was a phone call to Australia,

    wishing my bestie a happy 21st.

    That's all for now.

    I shall have my dinner.

    Alles Gute!

    BH-Y. 17th Edition.
    ++Sunday, December 5, 2010 ++


    My dearest sister's 17th - a day to be celebrated.

    Both our burfdaes fall on the 5th, mine February and hers December.

    Baby brother's falls on the 23rd (not the 5th! BLEH!!!),

    and that makes him the little devil.


    Like brother like sister.


    A cut from the choco-cake I baked.

    Appearance - Epic fail. (it explains why I dare not show the whole of it)

    ... and Taste - Yummy! (nuff said, don't doubt!)

    For more pictures of the burfdae dinner, click here.

    Alles Gute!

    Oriental Metropolis.
    ++Thursday, December 2, 2010 ++


    Months have gone by since my third visit to HK last September.

    But since I've blogged about Disneyland,

    why not just upload some pictures of the metropolis?


    In many ways Hong Kong and Singapore are identical.

    Both cities have impressive city view by the harbour.


    They both have ports to deal with with tons of containers each day.


    Advanced rail system accomodating the commuters;

    Hectic pace of city life.


    Luxury boutiques everywhere.

    (for this, SG is still on its way becoming one)

    HK babies will know LV, Hermès and Chanel before they know Giordano.


    ... and even the chocolates are branded!

    For more pictures of the metropolis, click here.

    _____



    P/S: Finally a chance onboard the superjumbo.

    (despite the recent scandals,

    I still like the fact
    that you can walk around the two decks of economy cabin)

    _____


    I will be back soon. HK.

    Auf Wiedersehen!
