So of course that didn't happen! To my defence, our first hotel in Stockholm was in a quaint little sailing boat and only the deck had internet! Our room didn't. But yeah, excuses excuses ( Read more... )

I am inspired by ledasdaughter! She made it a point to write everyday on LJ... so I should too! :P ( Read more... )

These are actually really good records of what happened in my life... :) Should remember to do one next year end! This particular version is gacked from trumpeterofdoom.

1. What did you do in 2013 that you'd never done before?Woah. Loads of stuff, a lot of it work-related. Represented Singapore in an international negotiation, including twice as a lead ( Read more... )

As in just back! Flew back this morning, didn't sleep very well on the plane because we got terrible seats and turbulence and time difference, had breakfast with boyfriend at the airport and then came back and crashed in bed for 8 hours. Just starting to reorganise my life now. But for now, a preview photo taken by my cousin whose family moved over ( Read more... )

1. I realise that I only blog here to reach out to my lovely fellow fans of Sherlock and the lovely people I met in London back in 2011 and some other friends who are still on LJ.

And the same coming back, only then there's time difference to contend with ( Read more... )

For a 3 day work workshop, but flying in and out a day early and after, so will be missing the entire workweek. It's a 7.15am flight, which means I'm currently sitting here at 6+ waiting for the gate to open... Sleepily. Yawn ( Read more... )

I read an article the other day about how one should have a "job" (like a serious hobby that takes up time and energy) outside of their real job to make life worthwhile and to make the real work better. It got me thinking about how for many years that "outside job" was cosplay. Although, admittedly, I've been doing less and less of that these past ( Read more... )
