My macair is panic now

This morning I was trying to sync the iPad on macair. Unfortunately the iTunes hanged and I thought restarting the machine will help. Who knows, it is so stubborn and refuse to shut down. I then trying to be smart and pull out the USB since sync not started. Then machine shut down immediately. Happy for a sec and continue pressed power button. A grey screen with a nice message saying "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button.". Of course I followed the instruction but the same message displayed. I got frantic and immediately searched online using my iPad to look for solution. I tried safe boot, reset pram, and few more suggested resolution but none resolves my issue. ....


This screen still persists. Really hope I could resolve this issue with no cost since I already spent a fair bit in reviving it two months ago.

A forgotten friend from Taiwan

I bought this Damper Baby from Taipei 101 Observatory in Aug 2008 and it was so well kept till I have forgotten all about him. I was delighted to see him again recently when I was unpacking and immediately took him out from his package and put on my study room table.

His name is Lucky Red and his catchphrase is "Lucky!". He has a great personality - Jubilant, optimistic, gets along with everyone and believes in dreams. Looking at him sitting at a corner alone, making me want to get rest of his friends (Rich Gold, Cool Black and Smart Silver) for him. I will keep a lookout on who is going Taiwan. :) Check out this website for more info.

Our new crave: Lao Ban Soya Beancurd


So smooth... So soft... So addictive.

I didn't really like this from the start. The taste is different from traditional beancurd that we used to eat since young. The hubby and I were always wonder why people willing to queue up so long for this weird tasting beancurd.

Now we joined the queue whenever we go old airport food market. Started from queuing for the hubby. I am a convert after recently I ate a durian beancurd from a traditional soya milk stall. My first response is it tasted yucky and it was not smooth at all and we both fully agree that Lao ban soya beancurd is the smoothest beancurd in town.

The hubby bought 6 bowls after today dinner. Only left 4 in the fridge now.

Birthday pressies

(still looking for the photo I took months ago)

Got ipad 2 from my lovely hubby as an early birthday present sometime ago when we are still in Bahamas. Now this becomes my everyday use gadget to read articles/blogs and watch serials/movies. Recently, I just started to use for blogging. :)



This is a surprised gift from my hubby. We were on our way to meet Emily and her kids for a swim at the sky garden last weekend and walked past Pandora @ Marina Sands. The hubby then said to me "Let's go in and take a look. This is what I wanted to get for you". I didn't have the intention to get since I already got an early birthday present months ago. Thinking that if I reject after seeing their goods, then he will not get for me. So I agreed to go into the shop and take a look.

The sales lady then explained that we could tell our own story using their charm. And indeed I am totally attracted by the story the hubby intended to tell me. After spending some time in mixing-n-matching, the sales lady calculated the bracelet cost. I was shocked by their high price tag. Yes.. Their charms are really charming and unique. Certain charms are available only at that country. But..it is still very expensive to me. So I told the sales lady I will think about it. The hubby then told the sales lady we are getting it. I was still hesitating at that moment due to the price. The hubby made the payment and I have a story bracelet to begin our journal. I love the bracelet to bits. I love the intention behind. I love the elegance of the bracelet. Thanks a lot, my dear. I love you.
