Burma struggles to be free
If you haven’t heard, Myanmar, or the country common known as Burma, is on the verge of a revolution by the people or crack down by the military government. It is a serious issue that is finally gaining attention in the media…. probably because of a reported 100,000 people in Yangon, the capital city, coming … Continue reading Burma struggles to be free
Finally, some decent shows on TV
(Sunset from my balcony – Bangkok weather has been warm and humid lately… maybe the rainy season is finally over?) TV shows in English are pretty hard to come by in Bangkok. But, I’ve been watching the show HEROES for the past couple of weeks and its amazing. Yes, I’m a little slow in the … Continue reading Finally, some decent shows on TV
Two years ago…
Two years ago, Misha came into our family, I was back in Canada after 5 months in the Balkans, unemployed and starting my Masters program through a university in Australia. Two years later, Misha is big, I am back in Thailand after 9 months in Canada, working two jobs, and finishing my Masters… where … Continue reading Two years ago…
Is there any better place than 'home'?
(Oooooo… artsy picture of my cloth hanger and cloth pins) Spent most of the day at home trying to get caught up with work and school. It's been pretty quiet and not much to update on, unless you really want to hear about what I'm studying. But of course you do, since I know get … Continue reading Is there any better place than 'home'?
Streetside fried chicken rules!
(Supposedly, the largest boutique store in Asia… this is Central World Plaza, or formerly the "World Trade Center", a sprawling complex that has everything you'd want so you won't get homesick… this is where I found White Spot's Triple O's) Not sure if I can trust Apple/Mac as much as I use to because two … Continue reading Streetside fried chicken rules!
The beginning of the end (or of the beginning)
(Who says I can't look like a Simpson's character…If you haven't tried, you can Simpsonize yourself before the Simpson Movie comes out!) School finally started this past week and it'll be a crazy ride for the next few months… but so far I think I've found a rhythm which will keep me sane and help … Continue reading The beginning of the end (or of the beginning)
Giving and Going
(Heading into downtown Vancouver. The North Shore mountains are in the background with Lions Peak covered in snow) 2 weeks went by so fast, I almost missed it. Everything went according to plan: spent one week working on my paper (I hope I pass), then spent about 4 days in a row with family, and … Continue reading Giving and Going
If I had hair, it would be frizzy
(A typical Paris scene, no? This couple was basically following us around Paris makin-out… we literally bumped into them when they decided to stop in the middle of the sidewalk to start kissing and giving googly eyes at each other…) The countdown is on… one paper to finish for a course, then its back to … Continue reading If I had hair, it would be frizzy
The Return of "Hong Kong Foot"
(Muriel and Anne enjoying the seaside just around the corner from "downtown" Sanary) Nothing much to say except that I'm still recovering from France and juggling my schedule… I need to get a whole bunch of stuff done (i.e. moving, term papers, work projects) before I head back to Canada in June. Oh, that reminds … Continue reading The Return of "Hong Kong Foot"
