Where was I?

I was flipping through my passport yesterday after we arrived from Penggerang, and I saw three special dates on my passport stamps, I thought it would be nice to document this -- yeah maybe I should.

- The Annual memorial of the 9/11 attack
- The Husband's birthday
- Our Engagement date

New Year's Day. I just started my year somewhere in the globe, and its nice to have it captured on one of the most important legal document you have. Wow, I just marked my year right!


Oct 10, 2010
Well, it's THE 10-10-10, this year's auspicious date. I was stranded in the sky for 3 boring hours and was travelling the whole day. Might not be a good way to spend this once in ones lifetime occurence but at least I got my passport stamped with it! Awesome!


Its funny how mundane things become special just because it was stamped and captured at the right moment at the right time....Interesting!

Kopi, Curry, Briyani and Me.




Here we go! here we go!
Itineraries here we go!

-- "We missed trudging with Trudge while I'm on my Chucks, chuckling while dragging my dirty, dusty and muddy bag...and so the series of epic "trudging(s)" shall resume." --

First stop countdown here we go...tic toc tic toc tic toc!!!!

It'll be just right at our backyard.
Quickly, quickly hope to catch up with you sunny.
Beached, beachy, beaching no longer my thing.

Don't get me wrong!
Sandy, dandy, duney still is lovely.
Like those in Mali.

Though old, cold, moldy bricks
Now gives me the kick.

In the meantime let me just say,
Happy Deepavali!




Photos taken just this afternoon at Little India. I just have to drag myself there, hoping to spot a few opportunities to shoot.

Unfortunately, the smell of curries, briyanis and cutlets are everywhere, it was just too distracting (in a good way!). Long story short, the tongue ruled over art this time.

I "trudged" inside Taj Samudra (Rotti Prata here rocks!) while waiting for The Husband I pondered on the menu but my thoughts drifted away again (daydream ruled over the mind-ha!). Instead, I was reminded of our trip this weekend to Malaysia and our upcoming trip to Indonesia soon after but no so soon (duh?).

Evidently, the silly poem above is the (embarrassing) proof....ooooppps! thoughts driftng again....Namaste!
