Photo 4 Mango, mango, mango

Went to the food hawker street this evening for dinner with my gym buddies.  Great street if you are really hunger and not too picky about the food.  There is a nice variety of foods to choose from and the taste is good, but not the best.  This image is of the mango and sticky rice stall that is there all year round.

Photo 1 - Egypt

For the new years, 2010, I went to Egypt.  I have this ambition - to see all the great wonders of the world.  There were seven wonders to begin with but since they held and announced the new seven wonders, here is my list:

• The Great Wall of China
• Angkor Wat, Cambodia
• Great Pyramids of Giza
• Petra, Jordan (new 7 wonders)
• Leaning Tower of Pisa
• Taj Mahal
• Stonehenge
• Macchu Picchu, Peru (new 7 wonders)
• Chichen Itza, Mexico (new 7 wonders)
• Colosseum, Rome (new 7 wonders)
• Christ the Redeemer, Brazil (new 7 wonders)

So far, I have been to 5 of 11 wonders.  Woo Hoo.  I just want to travel more.

The tourist gather to see the Sphinx with the pyramid at the background.

Lazy Saturdays

My lazy Saturdays means laundry and nothing else.  I stayed home and did laundry and surfed the net.  The only saving grace is while surfing the net, I advertised on the net.  I will grow my online business.

And I watched Ugly Betty.  Alas, it's her last season and I am enjoying it again.

I am not enjoying lazy Saturdays because of the word 'lazy'.  I was just not in the mood to get out the house.

The photos of the day:

Buildings around the office.  This is what Bangkok has become - city of skyscrapers.

T'is the eve of a new . . .

T'is the eve of a new month - October.  This will be a busy month on so many levels; personal, work and others.  The vegetarian festival will start on October 7 and go on for ten days, Hence I willed myself to eat vegetarian food for ten days.  Tens days without any animal flesh of any sort, however I still take eggs and milk.

Hopefully my full time job will be stable enough to so that I could pursue my sideline in peace (and bits and pieces).  It's the sideline that is overwhelming and at the moment, I am not quite sure if my efforts will be successful.  But I really believe that I will be successful enough so that I can pursue other things in life.

Physically, I appear to be in health and well-being, but internally, I my eyesight is failing me - I need to see an ophthalmologist; my neck and shoulder is sore - so sore that I need to see a specialist; and my stomach is too sensitive for my liking.  But, hey, what do you expect from mid-aged person thinking that she's still in her 20s!
I go to the gym 5 times a week and do weights like a body builder.  Serve me right for all this soreness - should learn to take it easy.

So this is the eve of 365 day of tomorrows that I promise to

• take more photos and post them
• do yoga and meditation
• watch less TV and play less games on the net.

And now, let's see how long this will last. . . 5555
