Here’s wishing all friends a Merry Christmas!!! Happy Holidays!!!!

Went to see the GP after discovering spots on my body and it’s confirmed that I’ve got chicken pox. Will be stuck at home for next couple of weeks and home alone as well because am afraid the son will get it. Can’t imagine when the pox dry up as it’s already a little itchy as I’ve read that it’ll be extremely itchy when it dries up.

It’ll be a good time to get a good rest. But I’ll be missing all the Christmas parties.

Powerbook sent for repairs

Dropped off the Powerbook at EpiCentre@Orchard yesterday for repairs after it refused to startup even after I did an ‘erase and install’. Thank goodness for AppleCare. Otherwise, the repairs might cost a bomb.



Guess blogging will be a little light till I get the Powerbook back.

Update-12 Oct 2006: Well, I actually got my Powerbook back last Wednesday. Took all of 3 long days for the service centre to repair it. The service technician had no idea what happened. Thankfully, a change of the logic board solved the problem of the kernel panics.

If you see this message, it means the DNS change has been effected in the DNS servers in your region. Will be updating the blog in the next couple of days.

The site was down over the weekend because of a system update over at my web hosting service that resulted in my database not being restored properly.

Thankfully, everything is back to normal.

Was reading this commentary on the triumphant over adversity of an American gymnast in the Athens Olympics where he lost his footing and tumbled towards the judges’ table. Yet he still won the gold medal by performing fantastically well in the last two events.

Through his triumphant, he has taught us not to lose heart when we have failed in our work, our relationships, or even our lives. If you’re brave enough to overcome all these failures, we can be triumphant in whatever we do. He has also made me realise that we shouldn’t look at the things that have passed, but look forward to what’s in the future. And cherish each day that God has given with relish.

Thanks, Paul Hamm. (And thanks, Mum).

Update: There seems to be some dispute with regards to Paul Hamms’ gold in the all-round gymnastics in the Olympics. The South Korean delegation is appealing for the gold medal after reports of points miscount by FIG.

Welcome to Blogging Librarian! This is my first post of this new version of WordPress. Have used previous versions of WordPress. Unfortunately, I made a mistake when I upgraded from a previous version and it caused me to lose all my previous entries (albeit there weren’t many to begin with ). Will try to restore the previous post when I’ve got time to dig through the old database.
