My Bucket List

Bucket List is a list you have that lists all the things you want to do, want to see, want to experience, etc before you 'kick the bucket'. I think it's such an appropriate name for what ppl would usually name as the wish list. I have had a bucket list in my head since I was a kid and let me share some of the things with you:

1. go skydiving
2. learn scuba diving
3. go rock climbing
4. travel to all the seven wonders of the ancient world
5. visit buildings by my fave architects
6. climb a mountain
7. travel, travel, travel (ok, this mite be a bit vague)
8. do postgrad research
9. adopt a great dane and other dogs
10. work overseas


Ok, there is actually more that those listed in here but my list is just too long to continue on!!! Let us just work on these first, shall we?

SORRY TO ALL READERS!

I know we haven't updated our blog for quite awhile. Its been really crazy for my part, and definitely for bie's part too as I think she was busy travelling! (ahem, updates on the blog please...) I have just moved into a new place a few weeks ago so it was a little crazy between moving house, tutoring (semester just started abt the same time I moved into my place) and work. But I am trying now to update my blogs as often as possible... and you too bie! CHEERS!

Here's to you, white horse...

Forgot another REALLY priceless experience I had in HK was visiting the exclusive members only HKJC (Hong Kong Jockey Club...) in Shatin. I think it's a real landmark since we ALL know how Hongkies looove their horse racing! hahaha.. so happens that Manlok's uncle is a horse trainer there and was able to get us a pass into the clubhouse for nearly a whole day (after he found out that I love horses). Everything was just an order away.... on the house! It was a new experience although I am not an avid gambler, but as most of you would know, I am an avid animal lover! ;P

But at a point, I was really depress as a referee's white horse had to be put down because one of the race horse ran amok and knocked the poor white horse, breaking his leg. Very sad.. everyone was quite sad in the room. So here's to you, my poor white horse, let it be known your life was not to no avail..........
