Rachel's Memories: Hawaii - Polynesian Cultural Center
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2010/10/hawaii-polynesian-cultural-center.html
Saturday, October 16, 2010. Hawaii - Polynesian Cultural Center. The Polynesian Cultural Center is like a mixed-cultural theme park consists of 6 different natives of Hawaii, hailing from the islands of Samoa, Aotearoa, Fiji, Hawaii, Tahiti and Tonga. Daily scheduled activities and island presentations kept us busy throughout the day. We got there at 3pm and only managed to see 3 of them :. 3 - Tonga - I guess you could say they specialise in drums (I really don't know the specific name for those big dru...

Rachel's Memories: Hawaii - Pearl Harbor
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2010/10/hawaii-pearl-harbor.html
Thursday, October 14, 2010. Hawaii - Pearl Harbor. I was pretty excited when dear hubby said that we were. Going to Hawaii. To me, I've always had this picture of Hawaii in mind : An exotic place where the sea has different shades of blue, coconut trees swaying lazily in the sun and people lounging about in the heat without a care in the world. Haustion, we arrived at the airport at 1am. The immigra. Tion officers were surprisingly pleasant and friendly. One of the them commented that it was "humi. We ch...

Rachel's Memories: August 2009
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 14, 2009. I guess Cadbury has to come up with new flavours with fancy names . and thus, Rocky Road doesn't refer to a certain type of road but a new flavour of Cadbury's. This is not out in Malaysia yet, though . so for chocolate lovers, go to Australia to get a taste of this new flavour. Come see me if you don't want to travel so far - while stocks last, of course.

Rachel's Memories: KL Bird Park
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2009/07/kl-bird-park.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Getting everyone to agree on going to the Bird Park was not a problem. Getting everyone's schedule to match was tough. We planned this outing from May and told En in advance that she can't spoil our plans just because school had something on or that she suddenly developed fever or flu. Getting Brian to avail himself that day was not a problem at all. He would happily skip tuition for it. plus, he doesn't get sick too often. The Bird Park is near Bukit Aman. The koi pond was a hi...

Rachel's Memories: June 2009
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. I was at a friend's house last week and came upon the above sign OPPOSITE his house. It's common to have a "Dilarang membuang SAMPAH di sini" and this is the first time I'm seeing a "do not throw dogs here" sign board. Also on LiteFM, there was this slot which makes us sound inhumane, throwing our pets away, which in other words, kicking them out of the house when we are fed up with them or when they are sick and old. Do we treat our children the same manner? Monday, June 29, 2009.

Rachel's Memories: September 2009
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 22, 2009. Merdeka Climb - Gunung Angsi via Bukit Putus. Every now and then, the siren calls and the next thing I know, I've agreed to go for a climb. I have climbed Gunung Angsi once in 2007. It was my very first climb and I remembered suffering a lot. We went via the Ulu Bendol way and the rain lengthened our entire climb. This time, 16 of us went via Bukit Putus. We rested for a little while here. The trail got easier after that. Then it was uphill again, though not as steep as before.

Rachel's Memories: November 2008
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2008. Sometimes, at the end of the day, you'd get to sit around and just ponder at the many things you did that day. Sometimes, the day is so packed, you'd just go back home and collapse on your bed. Sometimes, you've got waaaaay too many things to think about, your mind is so active. You're so tired and yet sleep doesn't come. This weekend, in particular, my schedule was so full, I was hardly at home. We decided to "play it by ear" next week. So many things to do, so little time!

Rachel's Memories: January 2009
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 31, 2009. This water dispenser has served us hot and chilled water for more than 3 years. Last month, when lightning struck, both the fax and water dispenser were spoilt. Fax was important enough to warrant special and immediate attention. We purchased a new fax (for the 3rd time! Almost rightaway - of course, being in this company, red tape was inevitable. Who would have the time to do all those? As if reading my mind, she said that the cleaner lady could do it every morning. Friday, J...

Rachel's Memories: Hawaii - Dole Plantation
http://memoriesabound.blogspot.com/2011/03/hawaii-dole-plantation.html
Friday, October 15, 2010. Hawaii - Dole Plantation. Before we went to Hawaii, I checked the itinerary. Dole Plantation was one of the highlights. I googled this place wanting to know what was so special about it. I found this unique maze which I really looked forward to going to. I even printed it out so that when I get "lost" in the maze, I would be able to find my way out. Yummy, but I didn't want my cholesterol level to shoot up. Art Chiffon Chouqun the wool into the house? Jacket in the bottom of the...
