I don’t really get to travel around when i was working on my own. Ever since i joined this new company, i have many opportunities to jet set around. Here’s some pics from my first overseas trip to Macau & HK in April 2007.

My cousin Liying is spending 1 semester in HK on exchange program to one of their university. She’s 2nd yr NUS BRE. Spend a day with her and also visited our Granduncle over there.

Would love to go back to Macau again…

Next destination: Brisbane, Australia…

Very early on, i realised that i cannot work from home. The multiplicity of temptations (fridge, TV, bed) is beyond what my weak mind could handle :).

It seems i had been a little too short sighted with an earlier post (now removed). I apologise to everyone who was named and any businesses that could have been embarrassed by it

The opinions were all my own and probably should have been a little bit more sensitive. Oh well…

I can’t help but wonder how powerful this medium has become that it could bring giants to their knees… the pen is indeed mightier than the sword.
