An enjoyable way to spend last saturday afternoon and the best way to get myself plastered all over Flickr.

I got to meet the lovely MercerMachine family as well though I think I spooked them with my “Oh Yes. I read that on your blog already”. Really guys!! I’m not a psycho stalker. Just your regular rabid fan. Ok. That didn’t sound too right either…

Off the record

I just found an effective way to counteract the zzz monster visit every working day afternoon between 2 to 3 ish. Most times, I don’t even have to resort to method 2.

1. Not wearing my jacket in the office in the afternoon
2. Coffee during lunch

Or perhaps I am just reading more blogs during work than I should be used to..

Sitting at the desk, surfing net and listening half-heartedly to the speech on tv by President Hu who is visiting in the states at the moment...
SNORT!!!
Who wants to be united with China anyway..
(To those who don't know, I'm a taiwanese. I think that should tell you what you need to know..)

Blog Updates

Comfort food

Yep. Time for a little blog update for this site of mine.

I've went and came back from my Europe trip. The trip was realllly fantastic. Not just because quite a few expenses were paid for by my brother or that he managed to find us quite a good deal on the accomodation front and paid for that too. Its the sights, sounds, climate and every little thing all rolled into one great experience. They say one should see Europe at least once during their lifetime and now I truly believed that. Anyway, more updates on that later after I sorted out my photos.

I've gone and got the viral flu right before the flight home so my head is still a little stuffed up and I havent quite got back my usual energy. Drats.
