Daylight Saving Time in Holland
It’s almost midnight here in the Netherlands. Another couple of hours and we are back to the ‘summer time’. This means we all will experience a lack of an hour sleep. I am glad it happens in the weekend as I need to adjust my mood before going back to work on Monday. Being at work at 9 in the morning is just nice but spending another hour in the evening because the real time of arrival was 10am might be an issue. It’s not that I leave my work on time every day but I might have an appointment on Monday evening with a certain financial institution to talk about the cheapest interest rate they are offering. Luckily there is no such thing in my schedule.
The change of time will also mean that I am closer to home and at the same time, I am older an hour compare to the winter time.
So, to the new time. Welcome summer time and enjoy the spring season, soon to be summer.
Happy 9 March 2010
Hey my visitor,
It’s March! I know. And I’ve been late again. Not that I didn’t want to come and update the blog but I lost my password. Apparently I changed it sometime during the winter time when I was (and still am) half awake. (Yep! Blame the weather!)
So, I must have put my mind somewhere when I can’t find the simple yet difficult to remember text or was it number? I guess I’ve been changing it several times now. Yes, Just to change and then forget about the initial plan of logging in to blog. So, the next time would be WRONG AGAIN! And again, of course.
Anyway, here I come to say Happy Birthday to my very dear one! I am so thrilled that I finally able to say it with a smile.
Never imagined that this time would have come. It’s a sunny day out there and I’m feeling GREAT!
I’ll pray that I shall and WILL have this opportunity to say this till eternity. HE is the Boss, afterall. (The one up there if you still can’t figure it out.)
If you have been wondering about what I have been up to, I assure you there is not much going on apart from busy stuffing my belly with the CNY dinner, lunches, and more delicious and hard-to-get-in-this-cold-country meals (Errr.. doubting whether to share that little detail). It’s not just the belly, but there are parts that, according to my resources (in which I am not allowed to mention their names
) have grown bigger through my pictures. I did believe them when I weighed myself with several extra kilos. GAIN! Not loss! Thank you (for finally believing me).
I got so many pictures in my machine which I am not even sure when I can edit them to get those fat or double chin gone, or crooked nose straightened. Not mine I assure you. I got this request quite often: please do the touch up before you upload them. Right! Like I’m the expert in this matter. (I wonder if this is now the English English or the Kanglish. Just ignore that part if you don’t understand, would you?)
Let see what I can do here.. Yep! Uploading the pictures! See which ones would be the lucky winners!
Here they are ! I found several that I don’t have to do any editing. The rest are either too huge to publish here or still inside the other camera.
These photos are taken during the CNY luncheon in The Hague for the Malaysian community in the NL.

I just love to see this lamp.

Guilty as charged! (Evil smile..) Yep! It´s mine and only the first round.

The food! And of course our sweet and charming Dato´ Ambassador.
Ahhhh! The kids got their Ang Pao (Red Packet) from the President of MA-NL. I did try to get one too but they saw my the-few-lines near my eyes. Argghhhh! I want ang pao tooooo…

I love this photo with my sweet Até Elizabeth and Dato´Ambassador.
OK! Hope that´s enough for now. Concerning to the other photos, I am afraid I normally only remember to fill my sweet belly first and then yes.. eat again for the second, third and so forth round.
Have fun! Cheers.
