....you know how some songs get stuck in your head and you keep humming it over and over again???
Well, at the moment the song that does it for me is Justin Timberlake's Sexy Back.
I can't believe I am actually listening his songs!!!Eeeks...but gotta say that this is one of the sexiest songs I've heard in a while....and I thought it was sung by a female when I initially heard it....
.......go ahead be gone with it!

My pet!

I missed her sooooooooooo much!

Hong Kong rocks!

I must say I always had my reservations about Hong Kong, China, Japan and Korea.These are some of the places which never appealed to me all that much in terms of being travel worthy.Chalk it to my indifference toward that region, (I know I'm terrible but hey I'm admitting to it!) and too many Cantonese serial viewing while I was younger and all those Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee movies definitely did not make it anymore appealing!

So anyhow, I must say Hong Kong at least was a pleasant surprise eventhough I was only there for such a short period of time.It's vibrancy was almost palpable and I was pleasantly surprised how cosmopolitan it really was!It is also quite compact when you really look at it but somehow the city of Hong Kong is just so dynamic.

I have to agree with my some of my friends who think it's got the best skyline ever on a clear night.It even beats New York City!

The ferry rides to and from Kowloon to Central Hong Kong was reminiscent of all those childhood ferry rides in my hometown Penang.

Too bad about the pollution that is clogging up the city though....wish they'd do something about it as the visit to The Peak would have definitely been worth it if there wasn't so much of smog causing poor visibility.

Still gotta say the best part of the trip was soaking in a whirlpool with steaming water outdoors while the weather was windy and chilly, atop a hotel facing the Hong Kong city skyline......was absolutely GORGEOUS!Never felt so relaxed and content ever!

Well, I must say I am looking forward to going again to Hong Kong and maybe I shall venture out to mainland China too and check it out....it might hold some pleasant surprises too.....another vast world for me to explore and see.......

Belated greetings!

Home for Raya...

Great to be back home and smelling in all the wonderful and yummy wafts of cookies baking in the oven.
Now it sinks in....the fasting month and the upcoming Eid!
Nothing like being home with all the folks at home gathering together to break fast and feasting in the goodies together.
And the kids have the best time i suppose....brings to mind the good times i had as a kid in a close knit extended family where there was always tons of cousins to hang out with and ah, the night before Eid is the best!
Decorating the whole house with greeting cards, ribbons, and arranging the chairs,tables,couches and sofas so that the next day after the morning prayers we could start having visitors for the 'open house' which is uniquely a Malaysian concept....
This year Eid is going to be different i guess.....celebrating it with friends away from home and would be celebrating Diwali as well.Hope it's fun!

Weeeeeee!

.....a well deserved break!!!!!

The most annoying thing in my life right now...

HMOV.
High Frequency Occillatory Ventilation.
Not good.
Cost:almost 20 thou pounds
Effectiveness: apparently proven but need trained staff to use it and at the moment any baby that has gone on it has not made it...except one whom we had changed to a conventional ventilator.
User friendly:are you kidding me???Need blood gasses very frequently and chest x-rays like 2-4 hourly initially!Pain in the ass!
