dim sum tales: For laughs.

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/09/for-laughs.html

Saturday, September 5, 2009. Presenting to you, the summary of word searches (as of Sept 1, 2009) people have used that had led them to this blog. Haha, "peter keith rajendran" ;). And as I reiterate again, knee high boots and ah lians do not. Necessarily happen together. They can very well be mutually exclusive. I will take it that the silence was an agreement between that very true and possible statement. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 4 Feb 2009, Wednesday. JetStar 3K692, Terminal 1.

dim sum tales: just a few more days

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/01/just-few-more-days.html

Saturday, January 24, 2009. Just a few more days. It's quite hard to believe that there's only slightly more than a week left before I return back to Singapore. Much harder to believe that I have only two official working days left at SCMP. Well, accept it: Hong Kong has threeeeeee official days of Chinese New Year holidays :) so that makes it a daaaamn long holiday plus the weekend :) though family's back home at such an important period :/. It kinda hit me when I had to print out the Company Assessment...

dim sum tales: what the intern reeeally does at work

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/01/what-intern-reeeally-does-at-work.html

Tuesday, January 6, 2009. What the intern reeeally does at work. Hmm I realise that I don't really explain what my job scope is really like at work here. Okay so if you're interested, then carry on reading. Nooo I'm not (really) slacking at work at all :). But that was months ago already, and each article is only up for seven days before it somehow disappears. Don't ask me why, I tried to ask one of my colleagues and he just said he wasn't sure, but that it would "disappear". Hmm a matter of fact, I almo...

dim sum tales: one of his moments

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2008/12/one-of-his-moments.html

Wednesday, December 31, 2008. One of his moments. This is showcasing one of the classic noteworthy moments my father has, when it combines his obession with over-excessiveness and kuah. As my parents made their trip over to my side of HK island to see the hostel and view Charlotte. S apartment, they also helped to bring back some of our 'growing' purchases from this land (Well, my parents apparently checked-in six bags - of course including their own! Gor Gor Kok Wee. Ahya Do you mind waiting a bit more?

dim sum tales: em goi

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/09/em-goi.html

Tuesday, September 15, 2009. Today was the day I woke up in a different place, a different moment, a different society. My senses were all perked up to explore. Landing the day before onto Hong Kong island, quickly and briefly scanning the new atmosphere, the strangeness of unfamiliarity and the mixed feeling of excitement and anxiety. The place i would be, for the next five months. And today, looking back a year ago, i can only smile :). The awesome people that turned up. My treasured items from home :).

dim sum tales: our soil

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/02/our-soil.html

Wednesday, February 4, 2009. Okay, I am six hours behind time, but well: Guys, I'm back. It's a pretty warm feeling to be sitting at the back of a Singapore-registered car, with the usual tropical rain hitting the windscreens, coming down the AYE. Familiarity hits you back when you see loads of acronyms, the usual ugly-printed carpets that welcome you when you step out of the airplane and down right to the usual blue taxis. Proper usual Hainanese chicken rice, laksa. Ok after I unpacked my overweight lug...

dim sum tales: in transition

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/02/in-transition.html

Wednesday, February 4, 2009. It is currently 3.30am and all three of us are still up. I had to get both the boys to sit (forcefully) on my main luggage bag to try to close it. I am awfully sure it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the 20kg limit that brilliant JetStar had come up with. We hope the box is doing well, over the South China Sea. Till we meet the next time, in about a month. More importantly, I am pretty stunned that I can accumulate so many things in five months. I am amazing. See you all sooon!

dim sum tales: in (the warm) office

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2009/01/in-warm-office.html

Friday, January 9, 2009. In (the warm) office. Hehe okay, here's just to drop a note before anyone is in at office. Okay, fine, my direct mentor kinda just arrived at work, but nevermind. The weather has gone realllllly quite chilly and windy on this side, that it is hardly believable it's just 12 degrees. And I'm already decked in long jeans, boots, a thick jacket with a hood and a scarf. Today's said to be between 11 to 17 degrees, with fresh and strong northerly winds. MOISTURISE please, EVERYDAY.

dim sum tales: not much a utopia, but it will do for now

http://hkhuitze.blogspot.com/2008/12/not-much-utopia-but-it-will-do-for-now.html

Monday, December 29, 2008. Not much a utopia, but it will do for now. Sorry this place has been turning out not too well this couple of times cos work has been quite in the way and where we three are, we do not have Internet that's why. Last few instances, we also have been having visitors - thus, many of our weekends/free time is to bring these lovely people all about HK (or rather, where we have been at least) for coming by! A television with cable. A kitchen of proper utencils. There are loads of othe...
