31st Dec 2006. Last day of the year. 5 days since I last logged in (doubt anyone missed me anyways).
Oh well, must admit that this has been quite a real holiday - been the one where least work's being done. Really got my dose of travel, sleep, dvds, and meet-ups with frens & relatives, so I'm not complaining. Online connection's been super erratic, with those 6 undersea cables being multilated by earthquake tremors.. It'd be perhaps another couple of weeks before we can access websites without having to deal with that pressure-raising "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" sign.
Yesterday, I went to Shashlik @ Far East Centre. A cosy little russian restaurant with yummy skewered beef/pork/chicken fillets on sizzling hot plates (but you must learn to forgive the moderate ventilation, grumpy waiters and upper-middle price range). Heard much abt their "flaming" ice-cream dessert but didn't get to try it... At Hard Rock later (wonderful powerhouse band was on air), I was waylaid by one of my newly-graduated kiddos. And true to every bit of that nurturer's blood that's in me, I told him to "go home early". You should see that pained look on his face. Muahahahahahaha.
Today, perhaps I'd visit the newly-reopened ACM (Asian Civilization Museum). Read that it's free entry to all galleries till 2am. I am curious to find out how far behind we really are from NY's Met. Or perhaps I'd trot behind uncle to photograph fireworks. A quiet countdown to a hopefully bright new year.
