Plinky wanted me to recall when I first started using the Internet regularly. Well, it's got to be 1996. You've probably been online long before that, but keep in mind, it's Indonesia I'm talking about. I signed up for an Internet account after a field trip to an Internet provider for a class in University.…… Continue reading When I started using the Internet

… and hasn’t updated her blog in over a month? This girl! But hey, at least I redesigned the blog while I wasn’t updating! Granted, it’s not even my own original design (I just grabbed the excellent Mid Century template and modified it a bit) but it’s got to count for something, right? Right. I’m…… Continue reading Who Has Two Thumbs…

Well, that’s all folks! Thank you for riding the NaBloPoMo train(wreck?) with me for a whole month. I guess I’m supposed to say something introspective about blogging in the end, but unfortunately, I don’t really have anything to say other than blogging because you have to is not as much fun as blogging because you…… Continue reading On The End of NaBloPoMo 2008

Went to do some shopping this morning, then came to visit friends and we played games until close to 11pm. Made it home before midnight, just in time to post something to the blog. Phew. That was close! The drive was a little suspenseful with all the foggy patches caused by the warmish weather today.…… Continue reading On Coming Home Late

Besides, shopping online is…… Continue reading On Black Friday

No new Grey’s Anatomy! Oh noes! Needless to say, it’s a pretty boring Thursday night. But at least we got some Christmas…… Continue reading On Today’s Happenings

We spent yesterday in Toronto. First, we went to visit our friends who recently had a baby. The baby had a big poop while I was holding him in my arms. It was kind of stinky. It’s been ages since I had to smell baby poo. Thank god for diapers that don’t leak. At lunchtime,…… Continue reading On The Day Spent in Toronto

When you make plush toys, the highest compliment you could ever get would come from a kid. Yesterday a little boy called a sock monkey I made the softest sock monkey ever! It made my day and it makes me want to make many, many more sock monkeys. I love making stuff with my hands…… Continue reading On Being Crafty

I’m talking about me, not us. I’m really looking forward to getting paid for a photo assignment I did for a magazine in August. The photos have made an appearance in the magazine but the cheque still hasn’t showed up in my mailbox. Sigh. I just want to start and be done with my Christmas…… Continue reading On Being Broke
