Linux Xterm


I finally created a Linux like environment in my Windows:P the Xterm looks so ... achingly like an old friend..the hours I slogged in the XTerm labs in NUS....geesuz christ..to wax lyrical over this type of things means I have reached the epitome of geekdom..

Beijing Photo - Weekend Over

Over the last weekend, Yang and Bees came over to join me in Beijing.. Pictures will tell the thousand words..so enjoy :)
Yang and I even swam in the indoor heated pool in Swissotel with a hotel attendant guarding us...nobody swam..so it was like we are emperor and prince wallowing in the palace..haha


The first buffet breakfast we managed to con the hotel...for free:P


Entrance to the Great Wall..


Affer the grandola, we are about to become 好汉 by climbing the 长城.


Wabe also is 好汉 !


Before the great climb!


Comtemplative mood .. imagining thousands of years ago..Chinese border soldiers were looking thru the same window..


Aha! Yang is officially a 好汉 !!


Me too!


After a tiring climb, some roasted chestnuts felt so good in the chilly mountain!



Kee brandishing his sword in the Ming tomb.


Fruit farm...got SAN CHA! Kee loves the fruit which incidentally also is one of his favorite sweets.


A massage at Bodhi Place...well recommended by almost all Nokians..







One of the 2 famous places for Peking Duck..Da Dong..the other is jingjude..which they say is not suitable for Singaporean taste.






A joyous scene outside the Tian Tan.


A attempted visual photography :P


Kee and Wabe at Tian Tan.



Mother and Son - such natural smiles:)



Father and son - bonding at its best :)




Wabe looking radiant in her smile..too bad the flash did not work as well:P



The Echo Wall...er...I didn't managed to verify this myself..


Kee in his Bob the Builder guise.
the morning when Bee and Kee left for airport...3 new big bags full of stuff from Ya Siu..hahaha

Back to SG

A bit tired after the trip and a busy week for presentation materials to present to sales vps next week.god what did i get myself into?

yang's results were very disappointing...esp for math..i knew he could do better but to trip at the last moment...i am sure i could have made a difference had i been in sg...but what to do...job security is now paramount so i can't afford to risk this..

well anyway, i hope we can work this out ..especially with my increased workload...

wabe just received news that her place will be re-org..my goodness..

it is indeed wisdom that we have overcommited in property...so wise is this wa sabe :)
