I won’t be able to update this blog anymore due to max-ing out the space available for me… *sigh* For those of you who followed/occasionally read my ramblings here, either go to my Facebook notes, or wait a bit for me to start something in wordpress (http://enkemeniel.wordpress.com )… I’ve decided to stop updating Myspace as well… It’s a bit of a pain…

Unless there’s some way I could go about continuing, this would be my last post here….

I’ll keep you all posted if I have anything set up soon….

.

Cheers! Thanks for reading!

[edited] Yep~ Wordpress is now officially up and running. Weirder than ever as well~ See you there~!!

missed clue~

March 30th, 2008 by euphrosyne

I woke up on saturday, went out of my room and saw a piece of post-it note on a long piece string dangling/stuck on my door, with "I am the keeper of Denty’s Golden Nuggets" written on it….

.

As expected, that garnered a few !??!??!??!s from me, in which I expressed by penning a few question and exclamation marks on the other side of said post-it, stuck it back on Em’s (cousin and only person who lives here and might do odd things that other members of the household would not question… much….) door, then promtly forgot about it and happily went on doing stuff….

.

Treasurehunt300308It was until Sunday evening, when Em and Chris (otherwise known as Denty from the post-it mentioned at the above) came back from up North and asked "Did you find it???", did I know that it was actually the first clue to a treasure hunt that Em setted up to ‘entertain’ me when they were gone….

.

After much giggling and teasing (and more giggling when they saw my reply on said dangly post-it now stuck on Em’s door), fortified with a nice mug of tea, I started to ‘hunt’.

.

A few false turns and being ’slightly’ distracted by a Sakura scented note ( LONG story… don’t ask….. >_<) later, it all ended in the fusebox in the hallway.

.

Tucked snugly in there with the final piece of post-it, is a little bottle of Jasmine oil~

many firsts for Remy~!

Cnooo3 *sighs* Dagnamit…

Just recieved an email saying that I wasn’t picked for the post I really wanted (a researcher in a medical publication company)…..

*sniffle* Worse, when they told me that they actually really really liked me, and I was more than qualified and well suited for the company…. Only problem is that they wanted someone that could work for longer than 1 year (my visa is valid for a year) and they can’t sponsor me for further visa applications….

*sighs*

Back to more job hunting~

happiness~!

fox up at last~

March 10th, 2008 by euphrosyne

Fox2 Damnit, I can’t believe I forgot to post the finished felt fox photo! (hey! tongue twister!)

.

Well… here it is….

.

After many distressed messages from friends about my previous post of the half finished fox, it would be wrong of me to neglect doing so when I DO remember!

.

As they say… memory is first to go!

day and night at the museum~

March 8th, 2008 by euphrosyne

Britmuseum1 Went to the British Museum on Thursday, hoping to be able to see the terracotta army expo that’s been going on for the past few months….

.

Happily took the trains over to the city, and was among one of the many others who, I guess, had the same intention…. While walking through the main door amidst the sea of people, I went past 2 guys (British, maybe?) who saw me and suddenly stopped, bowed at me, said "konichiwa~!!" (FYI, that’s good afternoon in Japanese) and then walked off.

.

I stood there and gaped….

.

.

Unfortunately upon arriving at the ticket booths, we found that the tickets were sold out for the day and needed advanced booking! No online tickets were sold anymore either…..

.

It’s a good thing we had a plan B…. just spend some time wandering around the Museum proper and then go shopping~ *grins*

.

Britmuseum2 We went to the Japanese section, then to the Egyptian wing, and the European….

.

When our stomachs started grumbling, we attempted to find our way out towards the hotdog stand located right OUTSIDE the museum…. after several wrong turns, dead ends, unsure puttering and more stomach growling later….

.

Bliss~!

.

Scoffing down the hot dog with mustard, we went browsing in shops, had starbucks coffee (ice caramel machiatto for me~) and a blueberry cheesecake in a bookshop, and headed off home just in time to beat the traffic….

.

And the perfect ending for this day….

.

We watched Night at the Museum during dinner~
