Yet Another Nat’l Novel Writing Month Ends, or Hello December!

As it was last year, National Novel Writing Month sadly came to an end. I did my silly novel: Finished the story, not just hit the 50k word minimum. We’re all winners! I’m not sure if I’ll touch this story again – something I’m calling “The Mystery of the Venerated Chalice” (take a guess – [...]

Change!

That’s the key word… I dropped by on my Saturday day off and found so much change on this site! I think it’s good… but nowadays I don’t know what change is good or bad. Change is… just change. B- is out today in her cooking class and she’s come up with some great recipes [...]

August into September

Time flies… “summer” is about finished in so many ways and the ramp up of the end of year is coming up. There’s a bit of a yearly “corporate life cycle” – the ebbs and flows – and we plan our holidays and other activities around it. This year is happening really fast and I’m [...]

Happy CNY from Malaysia :)

37 years and I’ve finally been able to celebrate Chinese New Year with my relatives in Malaysia .  It’s a nice feeling.  Got to see some lion dances and firecrackers.  Eat lots of good food and relax from work! Life is pretty good!

Gong Xie Fat Tsai!

Definitely wishing everyone a happy Chinese New Year.  A big deal here (Taiwan gets 9 days, including weekends).  I’m typing this from the Taoyuan International Cathay Pacific lounge. It’s mad on the highways due to the exodus of people back to their home towns from Taipei.  Boarding soon and I’ll be arriving in Ipoh just after [...]

Malaysia

Back here ,2 days for work, stayed the weekend and now headed back.  A  bit early at KLIA but is ok.  KLIA has a lot of new things and B-’s shopping and looking around.  Next month, going to be on the road a whole lot more . Trying to take things a lot less fast [...]

The last leg!!!!

Arrived at KL this afternoon… and almost predictably, my immigration  experience at KLIA was a facsimile of rush hour traffic … loads of people queued up and inching slowly forward.  A potpourri of Malaysian visitors from Republic of Yemen, India, US, Taiwan, Commonwealth countries, Japan etc.  Luckily I got there because soon after me, there [...]

Fly away ..

Catching up on some blogging now at the Dynasty Lounge in Jakarta international airport before heading back to TPE.  Been on the road now for 8 days, KUL -> SIN -> CGK (Jakarta Airport code).  Glad to have missed the Typhoon up north but the weather down here has not been normal either.  Lots of [...]

It’s rainy season all over Asia-Pac

The rain in Taipei is killing me… whole week it was raining and this morning on the way to CKS airport, the down pour was relentless. Now sitting back at the Le Meridien in KL Sentral and the rain has come with me. Thunder added to the mix. Hooking up later this evening with my [...]

Airport living

No, it’s not that bad.  But it seems that I’ll be maintaining the 50% flight time over the next couple of months.  My KL trip is concluding with this little blog from the KLIA Plaza Premier Lounge, courtesy of EVA. It’s been a good trip: managed to get a lot of work, socializing, meeting new [...]
