We Have Moved

In honour of our first home away from home.



But I'm not complaining =) The new place is awesome. Will finally get into shape (excluding round) with the fantastic facilities available. Probably won't be having as many parties since security is so tight... but I'm sure I'll find a way.

Favourites about the new place:
Gym
Pool
Sauna
Electric mixer (no more bustin' muscles when baking)
Amazing view from own balcony
Breeze in summer
Boardwalk next to the river
Hotel-like XD

I'm so blessed!! God is so generous! So much to be thankful for!

p.s.
John, you're going to love it in Brissy.

Five

The usual picture-filled post when blogging seems a chore.

I have the most colourful, happiest-looking "office"

My most regular 4-yr old is getting better with the camera

Healthy high-fibre cookies for snacking on

Did you write love on your arms? TWLOHA
And that's what you get for pranking a prankster


Been watching quite a few movies lately... forced to watch scary gruesome ones... for those with not-so-active imaginations and not-so-good memory, Paranormal Activity is the shit. Not for those who live and sleep alone.

By the way, did you watch the spoon-slow-murderer video? Freaky face, right?!

***

Names

It has been almost a year, and I still don't like my student email address. "jia.mok@......"
Though my name is shown as Miss Abigail Mok, most people would still think my name is JIA.

(first name) Abigail + (middle name) Jia Xian + (last name) Mok = Jia Mok.

Like, I specified, right?
So now you know the 'math', here's a real story to show you why I'm not complaining......

The (slightly modified) name is Alfred Ooi Kok Wai.
The scene is during a roll call in his first ever class in uni.

Tutor: James?
James: Yep
Tutor: Christina?
Christina: Here
Tutor: ..... Kok?

Alfred wonders who in the world would be named Cock.

Tutor: Kok?

Alfred looks around to see who the poor fella is, so he can laugh.

Tutor: Kok.... Ooi?

A lightbulb flashes above Alfred's head and everything clicks. He reluctantly raises his hand. Now he wants to die.

Haha!! And that's still the name I use in my mobile's address book!
Remember, Chinese/Korean/Asian/whatever names aren't wrong, they're DIFFERENT. XD
