给爹D做早餐吃

Over the weekend I thought instead of munching on the 500calorie/eggtart from KFC, I should make breakfast for my dad. It was. unsuccessful yet it wasn't total failure either. I have to defend for myself, that's because I didn't know where all the condiments are, the frying pan was so steep, and the spatula was too thin so it was hard to flip the omlette..so it didnt look or taste as perfect as I wanted it to be.
Evenso I think Daddy liked it (probably because there was spam in it that's all) . Although he kept critisizing what else could be added, deep down I know he appreciated it because he requested for a second one. =)
I shall continue to discover new recipes and improve on my culinary skills. People think it's unncessary to do all this, but cooking has gradually become a hobby of mine. and there's no other way I feel more happy than seeing the people I love eat the food I cook.

inspired.

i found a new role model to look up to today -
Venus Chan, WE Consumer Practice APAC Lead and smoking'hot mother of two kids.

That's my goal in 5-10 years...

never felt better

nothing is quite like the chill days here in beijing. comes home to already cut seedless watermelon and neatly folded laundry on the bed. skypes with the mother being warned to spend wisely while i was given a credit card. wakes up with no pimples when i check myself out in front of the mirror. gets sent off to work by my loving dad cuz he's sacrifacing his precious sleeping time to be my driver. grabs a 肉包子 with sweet soymilk to start off the day at work. gets owned at work cuz im still a noobie. feels frustrated but recovers from reading a email filled with xoxo. fixes my mistakes and completes given task despite going OT. walks 3 blocks to yashow - this is where all the observation happens. in previous summers i've gone through bus rides, subway rides, but never walk around the city absorbing a sense of BJ lifestyle on the streets. it's as hot as hell here but you can feel the level of comfort in how the chinese adapt to this loving city, including thinking they will never get hit by cars even when it's green light for cars. finally makes to my shopping destination alive and enjoys the fact that i haven't lost my bargaining skills, although they have deproved quite a lot. all the stress from bargaining then leads me to go sit down and do nothing - nail salon. yes. and let the painting begun =) medi and pedi ultimate cure. and then? well, barstreet is 1min away from me so time to ring up the girls for some drinks, catch-ups, and 串儿.
never felt better.

hello from BJ

so it definately has been a while since i blogged.
ever since my mom and brother visited seattle, i've been busy touring them around. after they've left, i've been busy moving in the new apt. and then unpacking unpacking...shopping for new furniture...etc etc.
and then now here i am, at Waggener Edstrom office BJ, ready for a lovely wednesday! words can't describe how thrilled I am to be able to work in WE and learn more about the PR industry in China.
and most importantly, it feels good to be back home. summer 2010.
