With my 'oldest' buddy-Hooi Ling after the sailing trip, trying to soothe the sunburn with a latte and hot choc.

Tom Yum and Iced Tea

After roaming around aimlessly trying to check out 'The Great Malaysian Sale' which officially commenced today, was really dying to have something really spicy with something really cold!Chanced upon a new Thai restaurant....the thai food expert that i am...would only rate it at a mediocre 7/10.But nice place, and great ambiance....worth another visit.

The passing of a parent

How does one cope with the loss of a parent??
Especially if they were cruelly snatched by the jaws of death in a horrible and unexpected accident??
My thoughts and prayers are with the Rizvi family and especially Saif right now.
Though our lives have taken a different path and we've been out of touch, it was heartbreaking to know what he's going through right now.
Stand tall and be strong Saif....the legacy of your dad lives.....

What a day!

Met up with Marlene after years today!Seem to be doing that quite a bit these days....bumping into old mates and in turn getting to know again some of these people who probably sucked lollipop with me and made Sister Luke's life miserable when we were barely 4 feet tall!
Well, have just moved to a new place and all so it was good to see a familiar face even after like 12 years!
As it turns out she had to see a client after lunch and I didn't mind tagging along and before I knew it,I even managed to get a place to call my new home!(been looking for a place high and low last couple of days....)
Also my pal Marlene seems to be somehow amazingly in touch with Nora, Kerry, Gwen, Hanne, Chieh Lin, Raja, Chris etc....some of whom lived right under my nose in England!Gee....small world.....
Now looking forward to a reunion with Elene again after our last 'date' in Fulham last year post Wimbledon where we almost got mobbed by some hooligans....
