I am glad that my stolen Macbook has been replaced. I cannot however deny the fact that I am always reminded of that raw ache that I feel. I have lost a lot of my precious photos from those dirt low scum, I was in the process of backing up the photos, i only managed to transfer 8 out of 43 photo albums. I could never go back to those lovely places I have been, memories is all I've got ( sob and some more sob).

Shukran Jasilan ya sadika Tins
Everytime I see this bungisngis "Lea Salonga" look alike and used to have braces lady, I couldnt help but smile. There are loads of reasons why so, one of them is that we had so many wacky memories back in the Birmingham days, and whenever we meet up and reminisce we couldn't help but burst out giggling more of guffaw really. It doesn't end there mind you, there are bloopers that do occur at times even on the other side of the pond (Aremika).
What I really appreciate most about Tins ( & Bobby of course) is her being sincere and thoughtful friend. Thanks for fetching me at the airport, driving me around SF and really taking out of your way despite your hectic schedule. Who could forget the lovely Baked salmon, thanks for partaking the recipe, I still have yet to find ground onion in one of the shops and make you proud. I consider you and Jhie as my strongest link (west coast) and the reason why I never get tired of visiting the lovely San Francisco kerchiiiing!. Sana di kayo magsawa sa aking kakulitan hee hee!!
The Girl with the golden aura
Meet Jhie
I consider this beauteous Eve as one of the IT Girl when it comes to fashion. Well, she's got the flare and I must say despite being a yummy mummy already, she still maintains her eherm size 0 figure. Not that I am milking it to the hill, but she is one of those I consider amongst my very good friend and a confidant at that. I had fun in all of our outings especially Muir woods.
Even if we don't communicate and don't see each other that much I know that I have a friend in her, nothing has wavered what so ever and for that I am indeed endearingly grateful.
Thank you very much Mars & Von for welcoming me into your grand abode, and of course to Mummy Amparing who's so maasikaso and makwento as well. You guys made me feel so at home. And not to forget the very lovely kulits and the center of love and attention Clark and Ash. They bring such joy not only to you guys but to all of us as well.
Thanks for organising the QEH east 4 c(-diff) reunion, it brought back so many fun filled memories ( wink, wink). It was such a special event (hikbi, kerchiiing!)

Broken Silence
It is quite obvious that I am not amongst the clan of religious blogger. Anywhow I have been rather hooked on cupcaking for the past 3 months or so. It's the kind of phase I go through from time to time to satiate my inclination to craft and baking. My friends would normally ask how I do certain things when it comes to ideas and stuffs. It is no secret that youtube is the HG for everyone, next to google of course!
This is how I do it, if I taste something I like to replicate ie Cinnamon pretzel (they cost £3 per pretzel, outrageous no?)
or nata (so tiny and priced at £2.79!),
I just tune in to youtube and voila!

Thank you ladies!
I have hit the 40 mark in my life and they say the 40 is the new 30 Hmmn whatever that means! It was a joint informal bash with fellow capricorn Diane.
Thank you very much Shella, Crissy and Pat for the beautiful cards and gifts, they were all made of a binding chemical component that would last a lifetime, I shall treasure your presies as you made the celebration memorable!
Bikram Yoga
So my supposed yoga buddy has backed out on me, I am however determined to progress and start with this challenge. Having said that after all the misconceptions and anticipations, my first yoga lesson was not bad at all.
They say the room is stifling hot, imagine yourself being in the beach or in an arid place at midday temperature cut that into half, that is the temperature setting in the room more like prickly heat. Our yoga teacher Lisa kindly introduced the newby in the block. We, the newby were located in the back corner of the room, this is so we could observe and watch what is going on. Bikram yoga is down to breathing technique, stretching and balance. With constant practice I shall be able to stretch those unused muscle that I never knew I have. I expected to see all people to be slim, I was glad to see that there were gents and ladies of varying shapes and sizes and some were even size 20 and they were as determined as the rest of the crowd. The fact that I started to sweat 10 minutes after starting was a satisfying thought. I was pleased with myself because I was able to accomplish 23 out of the 26 postures. Lisa however suggested that we should not leave it another week before we go for another class otherwise we start from scratch again. The teachers here are quite supportive and respectful on what you are capable of. Hopefully in a matter of months and once I have mastered all the moves, I could proudly be a fellow yogi :0).
