2006 Jan 8

I am meeting some BS folks later... it is a very strange outing because it is initially meant to be a small dinner gathering under Fr's request... and I wanted to revive the NYC Gobo and Sukhumvit Govinda's unique vegetarian tastes... so that's like the headstart... then I decided to invite more people to attend since I have typed such a long SMS and it will be a wasted gathering if there is only a few of us... moreover, it is the start of a new year and people should be quite free and willing to show face... and Yes! indeed... it will be a surprisingly big crowd...

It's time for a change!

And changes mean discarding the own trash and bad memories that i don't wish to stay with me... those have been a part of my growing-up process and i certainly appreciated them... i have given them a sorry burial... oh well...

I hope to be putting in some pictorial descriptions of my travel highlights or interesting daily events... they should be archived in a separate column on the right, which is current empty...
