31 Dec 2005 : End

Took shower, packed, had breakfast after PL's Yoga.

PL went to office for some follow up & back for lunch.

We were back in Tgk late at 4pm. CC's dad bought kuih kak ( 粿角）or char kuih (炒粿) for us. This is PL's favourite. In Penang, it was called kuih kak ( 粿角）while in Johor, it was called char kuih (炒粿)

This was the last day of the year. The blog was here for more than 1 year - A great way to keep our diary. PL was looking at her 7 used diaries that she decided to dump into the thrash bin. Mold started to love the diaries after years....So, a better way of "recording" memories was to keep it online or in other means such as thumb drive.

This blog was written by treating ourselves as third party. So, who is writing ? CC or PL...? ha...P & C.

22 Dec 2005 : 冬至 Winter Solstice

PL was rushing home to change for her presentation on paper after a meeting.
This time, she realized the route to M suite is actually quite easy.
Last afternoon, she was late due to unfamilar on the route. There was a 2nd batch for the practical examination that she was not left out for the examination.

The presentation went well but was delayed for 15 minutes that it was 6 pm when PL walked out from Manja 2.

For a short celebration on accomplish last paper, PL bought roasted chicken and packed sushi for dinner. And, noticing it was winter solstice, 2 pack of glutinous rice ball or 汤圆(Tang Yuan) were placed in the shopping basket.

CC was amazed when he saw the roasted chicken on the table. And, he tried the 汤圆 (peanut & black sesame) even he does not like sweet thing.

06 Dec 2005 : knowledge & skill

Year end is the seminar period for PL.
Today, she met the same cute lady (or rather woman) she met last year.

What a coincidence, they sat side by side. Exchanging ideas, updates and etc... haha...

Before she left with hubby, she said : Meet you again next year... our annual gathering... so sweet... last year, she was pregnant with her little boy. This year, she looked for clothes of her little boy, and also browse through her little girls thingy...

PL had time to come back to change. She finally had a good time with yoga after acquiring the basic skill. Yet to touch up the steps and stretching. Gee...

CC cooked maggie mee for the night. It seems like age we did not taste on the 2-minute mee.

05 Dec 2005 : Environment

PL went for an environment seminar with WWTP engineer.

When talking about water usage, PL's brain blinked on a statement made by Eva during her visit to Malaysia. It was something like this.....

"At 1st, I dared not drink the tap water at home. Now, I just turned on the tap water & drink in Spore. When in Malaysia, I also wanted to drink it without realizing the tap water is not treated."

It is a matter of mindset. And, it is a matter of habit.

04 Nov 2005 : Penang bridge cam

oppps.. anyone knows on it ?

CC found these...

1. Penang Bridge Blogspot
2. UEMbuilders' Penang Bridge

If Penangites would like to check on the traffic congestion, check it out.

PL tried to stretch less during yoga. The sharp instructor noticed and reminded her to do more. ;p CC insisted to fetch PL to yoga for weekend due to PL's sleepiness.

PL had a terrible headache. weather ? exhausted ? not sure.
CC processed 2 green apples and 1 US celery in his juicer. hmmm..... natural juice for the day...

PL's headache disappeared after a swim.....
Sport is good. But it made stomach rumbling...we did buy the sushi package from JJ..ha.. so,,, it was gone before dinner...

03 Dec 2005 : 1st weekend of the month

End of the year.. time flies,,, without waiting..
