My Journey…

Just a quickie to inform everyone that I am still alive, just way too busy! An update on life here: -

1. Sprained my ankle a week before moving into the new apartment - ankle still slightly swollen
2. Moved into the apartment, unpacked almost everything in 6 days - still have the screen, projector and some paintings to put up
3. Lost a Tiffany necklace while moving, no trace of it still but could be in KL - got my sis to check =(
4. Adam’s dad and stepmum (Bob and Helen) arrived last Friday and we did loads over the weekend - driving range, boat show and shopping (everything seems to be very cheap for them)
5. Whacked alot of alcohol - Bob and Helen stocked up our ‘cellar’ with1 bottle of whiskey, 7 bottles of red wine, 4 bottles of white wine, a bottle of champange and alot of beer (that’s on top of the 2 bottles of vodka, 1 bottle of gin, 1 bottle of whiskey, 6 bottles of red wine, 1 bottle of white wine and loads of beer that we have got!)
6. Yesterday I took Bob and Helen to a boat shop - they needed some supplies for their boat and sailing shoes in preparation of sailing season again

It’s Tuesday today and I have just dropped Bob and Helen at the Museum of Fine Arts. I will be picking them up at around 2pm and we will then catch Children of Men at the cinema.

Here’s what we have planned for the week with Adam coming with us: -

1. Cinema (Wed)
2. NASA tour (Thurs)
3. Houston Grand Opera - Faust (Sat)
4. Houston Symphony - Yo Yo Ma (Sun)

I am busy busy… but looking forward to the NASA tour on Thursday. Will take pics and will upload them and blog more when I have got more time.

My holiday back in Malaysia has ended, we are back in Houston for more than a week now. Adam and I was so jet-lagged, it took us about a week to get rid of it.

I have been very busy since I got back, unpacking some of our luggage and packing up the apartment at the same time for our move. We are moving into the new place tomorrow! Movers are coming at 8am (damn!)

Once life is more settled at the new apartment, I will blog about my trip back to Malaysia, the weddings and our dive holiday in Manado, Indonesia together with pics.

As for New Year’s resolution? I like to keep my list short, at least then I know I have to do something.

1. Lose some weight - 5kg at least
2. Continue with my Ice Cream project - I know it does not quite work with my 1st resolution
3. Learn Spanish
4. Attend Salsa class - just so Adam and I can do something fun together
5. Visit a new country each year

So those are my resolutions, I am sure I can achieve 3 out of 5 there.

I got to go now… I have to continue packing, taping up boxes, cleaning the apartment, call the broadband service provider to cancel our account, call another broadband service provider to open an account (the old company does not have service at our new apartment), call the cable company, send emails to family informing them our new address, go collect the aparment keys and gate cards, take the trash out, take our clothes over to the new place, clear the pantry, do the laundry….. and these are only the list of things that I currently remember.

Have a great weekend everyone!
