Seventh Death Anniversary
宝贝今天翻出你的遗物，才惊觉你已離開了那么多年。每逢想起你的点点滴滴，心里就会不由自主地揪了一下。在开始写这篇时才赫然发现，原来我已没有任何你的照片可用了。往年都是反复地使用那几张仅有却已发了黄的照片。非常纳闷为何当初没能为你留下多些回忆呢？自从你离开以后，我都尽量避免经过我们曾一起散步的街道。親愛的宝贝啊，谢谢你可以完完全全的接受不完美的我以及把我視為你生活的重心。感謝你让我拥有那几年短暂的时间能...

合艾2012：酒店篇
大家好，我刚结束了5天4夜的合艾（Hatyai）之旅。 合艾处于泰国南部宋卡府，靠近马来西亚的边界。是许多马来西亚于新加坡人爱到的旅游地点。 我家几乎年年都会到那放松一下，所以今年也不例外。 只是，我们这次决定不安排任何的行程；我们不去拜佛，不逛水上市场，不光赏人妖秀也不去看美人鱼。 这些都是往年去过，看过，玩过的因此没必要再花钱去多一次。...

这家Hachiban Ramen 位于蠡園酒店（Lee Gardens Plaza Hotel）的1楼。打从入住这家酒店那天起，我就一直想试试这里的拉面了。 但由于两老比较向往吃道地的街边泰国料理，我就没向他们提出此要求。 然而，父母见我每次经过此店都会放慢脚步因此就问了一句：“是不是要吃拉面啊？” 真不愧是我爹娘也！那么了解我！ 就这样，我们终于走进去啦！ 店外的menu...

合艾2012：美食篇之Shabushi
位于蠡園酒店（Lee Gardens Plaza Hotel）1楼的Shabushi是结合了旋转生锅和自助寿司的概念。 简单的说，师傅会把生锅的配料放在盘子后再摆到运输带上而运输带将会围绕着餐厅的吧台而行，方便食客随意地拿。 寿司则是以自助的方式呈现。 以345泰铢（13.80新币）就能吃上两种日式料理实在是物超所值！...
