Palo Alto

Im researching on some places we can go while in San Francisco. Palo Alto came up. Thought it might be interesting to go there, especially when Facebook’s headquarters is there as well. Maybe can go there to find Mark Zuckerman and add some friends to reach my goal of 500 friends.

The Palo Alto city’s website is very boring and in fact right on the press release section on the homepage, out of 6 news items, three are of robberies and one is of an accident. Man, Palo Alto sounds like a dangerous place.

 

Booked

We finally managed to book our international and domestic flights for our holiday. Flying to SFO via Seoul then going to Colorado to ski and then spending some time in SFO for some chilling and factory outlet shopping. Hee hee.

I even ordered a Kindle 3 as well as a Bluetooth headset to be delivered for free to our hotel in Colorado so that I can pick it up there and save on shipping costs.

The trip is already beginning to pay for itself. W00t!

 

Flor

We went to this place some time back but i was too lazy to post.

Someone heard from someone about this place which sells great cakes.

Took us a while to find as i wasnt familiar with Duxton.



The tiny place was packed and when we reached at 3pm on Saturday. There wasnt a huge variety left. By the time we left at 4pm, most of it was sold out! Crazy.

The pic below was taken the second time we went there.



First time we went, we ordered so much. Haha.



Ordered the first round then went back to order two more.



In the end, we even took pictures of Pastry Chef Yamashita. I bet he only washes dishes back in Japan but before we Singaporeans are so Jap crazy, we even revere the dish washers of Japan.

Another Set

Saw the Amazon Gold Box offer the other day. 65% off the UE Triple Fi earphones. 65% off leh!!! chop chop ordered.

It arrived last week. The ziplock bag on the right side contains the earphones and the nice metallic box is in the middle. It's a bit weird that the box is the focal point instead of the earphones. Haha.

Package

I got a package today. From Jones the Grocer. No idea who would have sent me so im excited to know but at the same time, i am not super keen cos im not a huge fan of JTG.



Turns out i was right. Whole box of rabbit food. But very nice of the client to send anyway.



PS: My camera is very clear!

*shudder*

My sister is in Buenos Aires for work. We are all a little worried because it's the first time she's travelled for work.

The first night, she emailed me when she arrived and said that she didnt bring her ipod charging cable. It's a good thing she isnt an iphone user cos iphone users cannot do without a charging cable for 18 hours.

Well, i guess i guess what handphone she uses doesnt matter because in the second day she emailed me to tell me that she lost her handphone when she was out taking pictures on her handphone and a motorcycle drove pass and snatched her handphone out of her hand!

Gosh that's scary! She's only back in 9 days. *Shudder*

Another?

Wow.. just managed to sign another deal. They’re just dropping from the sky!

It’s raining deals. Hallelujah..

 

Deals!

We received the signed documents for our first deal in China yesterday. What a sigh of relief. It has been a crazy journey getting that signed. After I landed in Beijing, I got an email from another client that they’ve couriered their signed documents to us as well. So that’s two deals in two weeks. WHOPEE!

In some ways, the feeling is somewhat dulled because at some point during the negotiations you know the deal is done but got to wade through the administrative hassle before you see the executed documents.

Im happy nonetheless. Two deals in two weeks. W00t!
