A Little Update

I haven’t really been updating since the last few weeks, because I was kinda busy with the switching of webhosts to actually want to sit down and blog. But well, guess that’s out of the way now, so here’s a little update about what’s happening (or had happened) a couple of days ago.

First of all, happy Lunar new year to all! Sorry this is a few days late, heh. I didn’t visit relatives this year because both my parents are working, and to be honest, I can’t really be bothered. It’s not that I don’t like my relatives and cousins, but I just didn’t like the idea of going to their homes and sit there without anything to talk about. So when my parents said there won’t be any visiting this year, I felt so relieved. XD

Then… Reko and I celebrated our 4th anniversary this year on 23rd Jan. We didn’t really plan for anything, except to have a really nice dinner at Melt~The World Cafe. It was horribly expensive, but the ambience, the service attitude of the staff, quality of food are all exceptionally good. We were greeted with genuine smiles and hearty “Good Evening Sir, M’am!” all the way from our first step through the hotel front doors to the restaurant (which is at the fourth floor, if I didn’t remember wrongly). It made us feel as if we were one of the VIP guests or something.

The food selection was great, much better than some other hotel restaurant buffet that we’d been to. They have Thai, Western, North Indian, Chinese and Japanese food all lined up neatly in different counters. The seafood counter, which stood solitary right in the middle of the buffet area, looked delicious, with huge, red lobsters, crayfish, large tiger prawns sitting prettily on the ice, waiting for you to grab them. It’s a pity that neither of us eat seafood. :p My favourite food would be the mashed potatoes (mmmm, sinful but heavenly!), and my favourite desserts has to be that waffles with icecream. =D~~ I’m drooling again now as I write this.

No photos for you guys, unfortunately, coz I was so busy eating that I only remembered that I should take some pictures when we were attacking the fruits. XD

Hmmm okay what else… Oh yeah, I’m gonna become an Aunt soon! My sis is due in Mid-Feb, so I can expect a wailing nephew in a few weeks time. I’ve already bought something for him! (Or rather, for his cot, actually.) I’ll take a picture of it once I visit their home again.

Finally!

All done and set to go!

A couple of minor changes here and there:-

– no more fanlistings, as I don’t have the time to maintain them all for now.
– no more wishlist at the moment (until I feel like making one).
– no Tag Board, since there’s comments enabled.
– instead of having links on the right navigation bar, I kept them in a separate Links page. The previous Sanity Asylum blog that’s not powered by WordPress will be available there as well, if you have a burning desire to read my previous blog.

Right now I’m pretty happy blogging with WordPress as I don’t have to manually put in all the html tags and codes. The only disadvantage is obviously difficulty of designing personalised themes/layouts.

Currently my new webhost, Oryon Networks, is still ironing out some kinks involving the transfer of domain (not their fault, really), but otherwise I’m quite happy with them at the moment. The connection to my site and FTP is really fast, and according to a lot of their clients, their servers hardly have any downtime at all. We’ll see how it goes. =D

New… stuff.

Like, wow.

New webhost.  New layout.

Haha!  Yeah, as you can see, I’ve switched to WordPress (as it is a lot easier to manage) in order to facilitate blogging-on-the-go in the future.  There’s still a lot of stuff to tweak, and I’ll blog more after I’m done with all the little adjustments here and there.

Laters.  ;)
