been a while

On the family:
- We have a newest addition in the family, have yet to name this cute boy (decided it is a he) yet....its non-human...its our Honda CRV(SUV), family car, pretty cool, now we can look down and see what other people are doing in their cars at a traffic light.
- Brother left for oxford(when pronounced in cantonese it means the butt of an ox) for law studies, but will be back in 2mths due to semester break

On the Elux/ Ex Elux scene:
- Realised Nisarg is a nerd, he kinda solved the problem that let me see Rohit on Sametime again or rather i just like to call him names :P
- Vivianne finished her tship in Brazil and should be back at montreal if she is not out wandering again :), have to write her
- Going to Sydney to visit Rajat and probably see Emma there too end of Oct, what cracked me up was when Rajat wanted me to buy an ipod for him, he wanted THAT new one...the IPOD SLIM?!!!! darling you mean ipod nano rite? yes i want one which can spin music and make me slim too :)
- One of my swedish colleagues is leaving soon...why do all my lunch buddies desert me...sigh...

On me:
- Got a new haircut, wanted a trim in the beginning but that japanese hairstyle magazine right in front of me tempted me, so i just picked a picture and i asked " Can I have this one?" And it turned out pretty good, only thing i found funny was this male hairdresser actually said that my hair is too BLACK!
-Attended one of my friends's grandfather's funeral, has been a while ( not to say that its not gd!) , but let me say that in a chinese culture, weddings and funerals are the highlights/ showcases. There were around 100+ pple at the funeral wake, and we had rounds of 3-4 course vegetarian dished served, one of the more big scale funerals i have been to. Apparently the deceased had his picture taken way in advance together with his wife, and I heard that a person even designed their own obituary, in case of fatal illness like cancers. Wonder who would I invite to mine, or would I want one when the time comes...
- On a happier note, my ex team mate Sean is getting married in mid oct, i know its a rare thing to say, but I have yet to attend a wedding for my local friends, as most of my peers have attended many weddings so far...oh well this shall be my first, so happy for them to be making that committement.
- Anna Mattson may be visiting after a 4 year hiatus, my other ex team mate, ....not confirmed yet though but am I looking fwd to this October ! :)

Simple high note of the day: Was sooo expecting myself to miss the bus to work, I was even visualising the bus just leaving in front of my eyes as I stepped onto the mainstreet, that scene just ran and reran itself in front of me countless times...But my,was I happily surprised when I saw it pulled in front of me just as I turned the corner and its was like perfect timing! Just like in the movies....awesome start of the day!
