Since my last post, many things have happened:
1. I flew back to Malaysia for the summer – and surprised a handful of people. I love surprising people, and I love planning surprises even more! So I decided not to announce my return to a few people and ended up giving a few people a wonderful and pleasant surprise. I love making people happy.. so call me if you need help to plan a surprise party! :P
2. I went back to KK to see my wonderful parents and sister and her adorable kids. Got to see the new condo that my parents moved into after I left for Boston. A lovely new place I shall call my home because my mum says my room will always be there for me.
3. The King of Pop left us for a (hopefully) better place.
4. Yasmin Ahmad left us for (I am very sure) a better place. Now Malaysians truly understand the power of her abilities to make us think about our identities. Many of my friends who were unaware of her work are suddenly appreciative of her brilliance.
5. I have started to think about whether I am truly solely a cat lover – or not. I always thought I was nothing else but a cat lover (as opposed to a dog lover). But a few days ago when my housemate brought her dog to the vet, I was forced to look after the dog at the back seat of the car. I was annoyed at first, but my heart melted when the mongrel looked into my eyes and then put her head on my lap. Maybe I could be a dog lover too. Still discovering myself I suppose :)
6. I got to see many friends again – the “US gang”.
7. Managed to catch up with a few long lost friends from many years ago. It is always nice to talk about the good old days when handphones were bigger in size, and color screens were only in sci-fi movies.
8. I have started reading up on behavioral economics – releasing the humble geek in me.
9. Oh, I was in New York for a week before coming back to Malaysia. Will write more about that some day soon.. I love NYC.
10. Love you all more. WIll be updating more frequently now.
Turning the lights off,
