K-drama. Uh-Oh.


No thanks to the flu bug that kept me housebound, I've started on Korean drama series again purely out of sheer boredom. Sounds harmless enough but trust me, it can be sooo addictive!! I have killed a few DVDs players in the past simply from marathon watching. Strangely, they usually go kaput after I've completed a series! Anyway, not looking forward to going cold turkey again when the time comes [took me great pains to wean myself off the last time!] but I shall enjoy it for now! I've got an excuse afterall! ;P

Hello again, Wintry Cleveland!

The trip back home was good but I'm actually quite happy to be back in good ol' Cleveland. Singapore was just crazy busy with people and cars everywhere! Weather was surprisingly cool at first but then it got hot and humid again. And it didn't help that I had caught the flu bug that was spreading rampantly on the sunny island. I had to cancel on friends and spend two days of my two weeks at home. Boo! Still, I had fun catching up with everyone and satisfying all my food cravings!
Am currently still nursing a bad throat but finally getting the rest I needed. (Yes, I've been sleeping a whole lot since I returned 2 days ago!) Hopefully, I'll be well enough soon to indulge in the last lap of winter activities! It's plenty of water and rest for now!
How have all of you been? :)

Wide awake! @@

It's 4.20am now and I am still sooooo awake! Hubs is playing computer games in the other room. Feel like a mouse in this house right now with all that whispering and tiptoeing around. hehe. Must try to get to sleep soon! I am so going to be a zombie in the day! @@

Home sweet home!

We finally made it home this morning after a gruelling 30 hours journey (including a 7 hours layover at JFK airport). Thank goodness for the skyclub lounge which made our long transit in NY more tolerable! We have been stuffed silly with loads of food since we came back. Supposed to go out for dinner this evening - hopefully I'll able to keep my eyes open then! Will write again when my brain is less fuzzy! Going to snooze now....

A cleaner home and I'm set to go!

I have been spring cleaning for the past week. It's amazing the amount of junk I've accumulated over just a span of less than a year here in Cleveland. The leaky air mattress I acquired, those few cable/ telephone wires I have no idea what to do with (Well, I did make a funny hat out of them for X'mas!), lots of paper/ magazines/ newspaper, boxes after boxes....I still have not completely sorted them out but at least I managed to clear some. All will be cleared out by Chinese New Year, that's for sure!
And I'd be on the other side of the globe by this weekend! Yay! My calender is filling up really quickly. Wish I had more time! I'm just going to make the best of it - eat as much as I can, meet as many friends, and spend as much time as I can with my family. I'm not looking forward to the long haul flight but the inflight movie marathon should keep me entertained. Will try to update when I'm back home but if not, I'll be back in two weeks!

The new millenium begins!

I woke up this morning to the sound of a happy bunny doing his speedy Gonzales happy run - the perfect energy to start off the new year! And in all my excitement, I've succeeded in breaking one of the blinds [yet again]. Oops!
We'll be heading back to sunny island for a short hols in a week. Looking forward to being with friends and family again and all that food I miss! Not to forget that much needed haircut! One of my mission for this trip is also to declutter the [plenty of] stuff I have back home. My motto for the year is to live a fuller life with lesser things! Let's see how far this takes me! ;)

Happy 2011, everyone! :D
