I am trying to break my own record on the frequency of updates mostly because in 3 weeks' time, i won't be able to attend to this site for 15 days. I feel guilty and have decided to shower this with much much love before i go. However i can sugarcoat (with sprinkles) it as much as i want but in reality, i've banned myself from any social activities to avoid further depletion of the savings account unless of course it involves beer or coffee. The parents are back in town and have kindly excused me from obligated company tonight as they do what parents do best with their friends - talk about their kids behind their backs. I had a sneak peak into the new Holiday Inn last night, complete with the smell of fresh paint and a gigantic opening day sponge cream cake. My parents have been inducted into the hall of fame by being the first one to check in and hence getting presented with a huge photo-framed certificate stating exactly that. Instead of feeling honoured, the Mother complained how she has to lug this back home with her and how it was not a tourist-friendly memento. Shame on you Holiday Inn! i demand you recall those frames and instead present to your Number One Guests with the equivalent amount in casino chips.
