~Oklahoma~  

Posted by ArKa

I am at Broken Arrow, Oklahoma for a work related trip. Weather here is chilly, and i think its 30degF odd last night. Its pretty nice.

Bao is coming to Houston on Thursday, and i will be touching down bout the same time. Gonna fetch Bao and bring her to my nest in Houston. Haha, hope she doesnt faint on seeing my mess in the apartment.
Bao has been working sooo hard this few weeks. Man, i hope she doesnt have to go thru that in her work.

I am at office now, wondering what to do tonight. Things are pretty quiet here in this state, especially so since i am in a town.

Gonna go now, get some work done.

Life's like that  

Posted by ArKa

It's been a while since i last update my blog. Pretty much has happened since.
Or should i say - its just another phase of life in Houston.

Been travelling pretty much the last couple of weeks. Was at San Antonio and Austin the last few weekends and was just back from Kilgore and Longview for some job.

Next stop - Broken Arrow, Oklahoma for work.
Boy, its pretty cool to see new stuff...but travelling leaves little time for oneself.

Its gonna be less than 1 month before i leave Houston for California.
Hmmmm.

This city, this metropolitan, this place....
am i gonna miss it?............................................................

Mistaken as a Canadian??!!  

Posted by ArKa

I was mistaken as a Canadian when i picked up my dinner at the foodcourt @ Willowbrook Mall.
Cant imagine anyone will think that i am from Canada.

Anyhow, its the guy selling asian chinese food there. He is from Cambodia and speaks Teochew and little Chinese. I converse with him for a while before returning to my hole.

Interesting....

Cant really stand the TV in the background nowadays. I used to on the TV and surf net, play games etc and nua.....
Duno why feel so irriated with the sound from the TV at the background.
I would prefer to on imeem or listen to some mp3 instead.
Signs of growing old??

I want to hug Chloe when i am back in Singapore.
Now i got 2 baobao to pamper. Poor me....

Getting Cold....blurrrr  

Posted by ArKa
