Family vacation and truthfully I only spend money on shopping spree and not the whole flight and acco. Those two were on my parents. My money for this year has been budgeted and put aside for something else.
There, I was only able to say four sentences which I hoped the Koreans do understand:-
- which is anyong haseyo (which is halo),
- kamsa hamida (which means thank you),
- olmayeyo (which means how much is this?) and
- gakkak juseyo (can i getdiscounts?).
I am not even sure the phrases means. But I think it has a meaning some sort like what I was made to understand. Asking for discounts is crucial as shopping in
But it turned out that the trip was a good one. I was gobsmacked!
It was fun.. though Kimchi was not.. nway.. kamsa hamnida! (haha I am so not good in Korean, very limited vocabulary)Labels: travel

There is now the superhot sofa which has the most outrageous print ever.
Designed by Royal College of Art graduate Cristian Zuzunaga (pict) who works as a model prior to his study at Royal College of Art in London.
The idea itself is freakingly amazing. If any of you guys know that it has hit our shores, do let me know. What a whacky wack dizzy looking sofa. And I’m loving it. It will look great in a room with white walls. I bet your eyes will explode if the whole room is pixelated (walls, ceiling, and floors even). Way too groovy.. then we can be pixilated by the pixelated room..

I was surfing through people blogs when I stumbled upon something which is totally cool.. These are the picture of the recently opened Google’s engineering office in 
Below is an excerpt from the BBC News on 13th March 2008
Engineers work in small teams of three or four, which is reflected at the Zurich HQ with small offices, each of which comes with the requisite 'bean bag' meeting room.
Whiteboards are everywhere, allowing ideas to be written down wherever they are thought up and there is a heavy emphasis on the idea that work and play can co-exist.
Other areas include a games room, a library in the style of an English country house and an aquarium where over-worked Googlers can lie in a bath full of red foam and stare at fish.
Google is keen to present itself as the company that 'does no evil' and 'puts users first', statements that are becoming more challenged as the company becomes ever more powerful.
And Google assured the more cynical members of the press that the slide is used every day.

Is the glass half empty of half full?
Thursday, January 17, 2008
I am trying to see things in what both worlds could offer. I guess I’m tired of being a constant optimist. Change is something that I have trouble embracing. My steps are little than baby can make. I am up for others’ opinion which is something that I don’t usually do. Don’t make it hard as it already is. It is a giant leap that I am currently making. I am entering adulthood where people don’t watch cartoon anymore, where lollipops should not be consumed no more, where the stocks market should be taken seriously, where taxes are now bestowed upon you and etc etc. I always have theory that people never change. As far as you to trust an ex-con, you are thrown to your own deep hole where you can’t see the sunshine no more, because.. Deep down inside these ex-cons they will always remember the thrills of having misdemeanor experiences. Nothing could ever erase that. My point, if I ever change into on of the horrible monsters that currently exists in HR, the child that is me is still roaming inside my heart. So much of being a tough gal. and believe me… I am now seeing the glass in many perspectives; inside out and upside down. I am being not only an optimistic but also a girl full of pessimisms. Time to be a bitch and no more angel dopey looking ME.

What’s with apples and oranges?
Tuesday, January 15, 2008
Can you compare oranges and apples? Of course you can. And surely in the end you see a lot of disparities. You will point out that oranges are oranges and apples are apples. It is easy as that. But it is interesting on how widely the phrase is being used.. just generally it has become such a common expression. Next time I am going to ask.. can you compare rambutan and pulasan? Or maybe can you compare a pancake and roti canai? A bit more up to date I guess? Plus we don’t grow oranges and apples here..
