Just a little update for u folks at home

Toronto is now 13 hours behind Singapore. Not twelve but THIRTEEN. Basically, the time's been switched back an hour, DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME, for Winter! Its kind of cool actually.. 6pm it gets dark. As we proceed further into the end of the year, the day will get shorter and shorter and shorter. Today was kind of weird, cause we just switched this morning..its like you have the feeling of an extra hour, extra time.

I've learnt a couple of things now..when you live in a country which has climate diversity.

1) you can't pour oil down the sink, cause during the winter, it freezes and clogs your pipes. Back in SG its like, yeah whatever i'm just dumping the stuff down the sink hole.

2)Closing window blinds helps conserve heat in the house.

3) There is such a thing as preparing your house for Winter, unclogging the roof drainage systems, checking the furnace and heating, double glazing your windows.

4) Realizing the importance of scarves and gloves. And a nice steaming cup of coffee.

5) Letting your steaming cup of coffee sit out in the open for 5 minutes and it becomes cold.

6) Butter does not become soft if you leave it out on the counter overnight.

7) There is a washing detergent that ''removes'' static from your clothing. and i desperately need to get that, i was getting static-ed all week, its not even funny anymore.

8) oh yeah, static. In your clothing, in your hair, on your arms, on your backpack.

Well thats all i've got now..i'll try to think of some more and post..

I finally saw the picture of kor and dad..they look so...different. Its been 2 months and a week(i think) my memory's a little messed up. Its just weird not seeing them for so long and suddenly looking at a photo.

Mom's French Teacher at Alliance Francaise is that Jerome guy!! From TP! Jie Xin, remember him? Wednesday Nights never looked and sounded so good. haha. well, he was funny too.

I can't get started.
