After a series of postponing, I finally made it back to our sunny shores!! lol

First I wanted to come back during CNY.  But I postphoned because I sprained my leg and the doc put me on clutches and a series of kinesitherapy.  Seriously! only French docs do that right?  The chinese sinseh will give an ultra painful massage, put a bandage around and say go home and dont walk unnecessarily.  Plus lugging a super sized luaggage around with a weak leg doesnt exactly sound like fun (think the lifts and escalators (or lack of) in the Paris metro system).

Then I thought I will come back end Feb or early march, but I was just not finished packing yet.  Plus, by that time I realised I didnt really want to leave behind my nicely settled-in life in France.  So i started postcrastinating my trip.

Then I was all scheduled to fly on 18th March.  But alas, one day before the trip, I caught a cold.  Flying 13 hours with a cold isnt exactly my idea of fun, plus I am gonna get dirty looks from fellow passengers.  So I postphoned again.  Secretely, I was delighted.  And I swear my cold got better the moment I rescheduled to the following Tuesday. 

That "stolen" weekend was just wonderful.   I am not supposed to be there, but I was there.  That sense of invisibility and liberation, plus extra stolen time spent with my friends.  It feels both forbidden and delectable.  lol.  With my reluctance to leave soothened by my extra weekend spent in France, I was quite prepared - mentally and packing-wise - to leave on Tues.  But alas!!  Strike of the national rail left me stranded outside the locked train station with no train to leave.  My friend even joked that there's a higher force which doesnt want me to leave. lol

But anyway, I am finally back and happy to be back!

Welcome to Singapore.  :)

I post-phoned my trip so I will be back in another week or two. 

Thanks to (wink: you know who you are) for giving me a warm welcome thinking that I am back in SG. 

heh

I am asking this for a friend:

My friend is going to do a 2 months internship in RMIT.  Does anyone knows of any affordable temporary accommodation in Melbourne for students? It can be campus accommodation, a home stay, apartment sharing anything. 

The period of stay is from June to July (2 months).

Susan Miller is so scary!

My macbook has been behaving weird since Wed. I was watching DVD on it and when I change the screen to see if I have new emails, everything just froze. I force rebooted it and after the reboot, everything runs really really slow, except for the mouse cursor.

When i say slow, i mean that if i click on the "apple" logo at the top left hand corner, it takes about 1 min for the pull down menu to appear. And if i run the cursor over, say, "restart computer", it takes another one min for "restart computer" to be highlighted in blue. When i finally click on it, it takes about 5-10min to respond and shut down/ restart.

Does anyone know how to solve the problem?

I didnt make any updates recently (nor backups, arggh!!)

I read some online forums and they talk about using Activity Monitor to see which program is taking up the resources. How do I open Activity Monitor?

I'll get somewhat annoyed (especially if there's just the 2 of us) and I might casually ask if he/ she is expecting a call.

The comb of the rooster, and chicken meat, both in sashimi style (uncooked), in a Japanese restaurant. I felt queasy even when eating it, but i was feeling adventurous.

Fugu fish sashimi.

Bee larvae omelet.

I guess i am quite brave when it comes to food! lol
