This tag from Kayni is so timely because coming back after a month's vacation, I feel a bit spaced-out in updating my blogs. This suitably sets the momentum back to blogging!
1. I worked in Sanyo Semicon Corporation as a Japanese translator/interpreter, directly accountable to the big bosses. I lasted only 3 months! No, I was not fired, I performed quite well. I quitted! :-) yehehey!
2. I backpacked around southern China and Southeast Asia for 1 year and 2 months, and very very recently, I've decided to halt this non-stop traveling and do something different.
3. Now this is strange or weird to some, (and I don't know why it sounds incredible to some people when they hear it): In my first visit to Malaysia, I volunteered for one and a half week in a dog sanctuary in Langkawi island.
4. I also worked for one and a half week in an eclectic restaurant with an eclectic boss in Bukit Tinggi in Malaysia - just to have an odd experience. It was nice, but really odd... ha ha.
5. I missed a flight. A connecting flight from Jakarta to Pontianak in Borneo just because my airplane from Bali didn't take-off due to a last minute verdict of bankruptcy for the air company! Yay!
6. I haven't had a Filipino boyfriend yet! (I'm not especially looking or requiring one though :-) )
7. I believe in Astrology, Numerology, Palmistry and other kinds of divinatory sciences, but this does not mean I relinquish my faith in God, tehee...
Now, to continue the tradition, I'm tagging Kero, Angeli, and Edgar, that is, if Edgar do tags.

Hi Dina! welcome to blogging! teka, where's your blog?
what you're having a baby?!!
well.. in virtualtourist.com (an online travel site where I get my travel tips) there is this genre of restaurants. And "eclectic restaurant" is listed as one genre. I say that this particular resto where i did a short stint is very eclectic because the chef's menu is an innovative mixture he learned from his Chinese-Malay mother's home cooking, international cooking he searches from the internet, plus his own style of cooking and food presentation. K.L. people drive a 1 hr ride just to have a taste of his very unique cooking of which he is known for. so I think this resto belongs to the eclectic type :-).

Thanks Anj!
Thanks for dropping by Caryn :-)
Kayni, there were about 40 dogs in my appointed site,and we were 4 people looking after them. I heard there were more dogs in the main sanctuary, and lots of cats too!
The Sanctuary is a private animal charity put up by a lady who owns an expensive resort, generously unique ha?
