Singapore Slingers

Thomas was in town for a visit from SFO so we pretty much have a good crew of Singaporeans around in LA-LA Land. We were psyched to get a Singapore night going so once FB gets back from his ROM, we were gonna do Bak Kut Teh, Laksa, Money No Enough and Mr Brown. Meantime, Thomas was nice enough to hang out with us at Malibu to shoot stills and vids of me on Lateralus and Tanleng on Ghetto Crossing. SWEET!




Getting to the crag was always an adventure trying to stay dry! I was hoping Thomas' bag was smaller but someone's gotta carry the chips and salsa. Traverse ain't exactly a gimme!


Busting out the move out of the cave on Lateralus. Hitting the pocket has been taking a toll on my fingers.


Tanleng running a lap on Ghetto Crossing 5.13a


And finally, the highlight of the week....Singapore Nite at Shannon's swanky Marina Del Ray apartment. Laksa, Bak Kut Teh, Money No Enough 2 and Mr Brown!!!! YEEEAAAA!!

I couldn't believe it when I actually needed subtitles for some of the dialogue in Money No Enough. I haven't been away from Spore that long not to be able to catch hokkien phrases, have I?

Team Hoyt

When I saw the vid posted by Hatta under Facebook, I was reminded of this amazing father and son team. I've known it for a while through casual talk with friends telling me of this extraordinary feat by Team Hoyt but I didn't bring myself to actually check it out. Now that I've done so, I am awed, not only by the amazing feats by the Hoyts, but most importantly by the boundless love given to us by God. To know that, just like Dick Hoyt, God our Father will go through all odds to deliver us from a world that bounds us.

Graduation!

Yup....we finally did the WALK last Wed!!! So this week has been super eventful with the two of us finally completing all our modules and me sending Lateralus! Unfortunately, we still have our thesis to finish up on but at least we're done with classes.


Finally getting our Masters in Science!!


Dean's list baby!!! Plus 4.0 Club! Mighty smart little girl but as long as I make her breakfast every morning, she'll give me the respect I deserve...YEEEAAA!


Me and cousin Linda...she could've passed herself off as a college student. Dearest family to us!!


The saints who've been faithfully sheperding us these couple of years.

So here we are, all decked out in cap and gown...supposedly the top brains in the country meaning that we're pretty smart but jobless in a dismal economy.
