Who Should You Vote For This Election?

Malaysia election tomorrow

Malaysian will vote in the general election tomorrow. There's not much I can do as a Malaysian residing oversea. I do hope for a voice of dissent to be heard in the government. The government has taken the people for granted for too long.

Colorado in January

I had to go up to Colorado one last time in mid-January for work related trip. It was very cold, at least for someone who is used to warm weather. We commissioned some equipment and as usual the equipment failed in the middle of the night. We went outside with the contractor to fix the equipment and the temperature was -15 F ( -29 celsius). My face was hurting from the cold after just five minutes.

I went to some pretty remote part of Colorado. I can feel a sense of solitude enveloping my whole being just like bone-freezing air in the surrounding. Sometimes I had to drive for miles before I see another fresh track in the snow. Contrasted with the seemingly unchanging and eternal landscape, our life, joy, pain and sufferings are just fleeting shadows on the face of this earth.

Isaac is going home tomorrow

Isaac has been in our world for two days now. If everything goes as planned, we will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Boon Hong is also getting better. She can finally urinate after after two days. A lot of friends came by last two days. Their prayer, support, and continuos concern for us really touched our heart throughout this pregnancy. This hospital, Sugarland Methodist Hospital, is also pretty good. The staff, doctor, and nurses have been very friendly and helpful the last few days.

Isaac has been labelled a "high touch" baby by the nurses here, meaning that he likes to be held all the time. In fact, I am holding him in one arm and typing this blog one handed right now.

Chinese New Year in Houston

We have celebrated the past seven chinese new year in Houston. Most of the time, Chinese New Year falls on working day, so there is not much going on the actual day. This year my parents are here. We went to Elder Ho's house for chinese new year eve's dinner and then there are several more gatherings over the weekend. We also went to Tanh Tanh restaurant in Bellaire chinatown to see lion dance. As in past year, Tanh Tanh spent big bucks on their lion dance and it was quite a nice show with tonnes of firecrackers and almost 2-3 hours of lion dance. We got there after the firecracker display but managed to catch a good bit of the lion dance.
