Happy 2010

好久没有更新我的部落格了，非常“歹势”。新的一年，希望可以多放一点时间写blog.

今天，一大早就起床了。在家里闲着没事做。提了我的相机，开车到我老美朋友家去“拜年”，也顺便去给他们的两只宝贝狗照相。照了好多张，但可以见人的就只有这几张。效果还不错。

It has been a wile since i last updated my blog, shame on me. This year, I am gonna try to spend more time updating my blog. No promise but i will sure try.

Woke up pretty early this morning - around 6:30am. Don't have anything planned for today. I have been going over to Steve's house in the past few years on new year day to have some greens and black eye peas - a southern tradition thought to bring prosperity to those who eat them on New Year's Day. Greens = Dollars and Black Eye Peas - change or coins, got it? I had two plates, 1st plate for year long good fortune and 2nd plate as a backup in case i ran out of good fortune :). While i was there, i did some portraits for their two little precious blue-tick beagles - Abby and Sibby. Here are the selected portraits.

Happy New Year everyone！ 黑皮牛也！

HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED
Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings,
poking me in the ribs and cackling,
telling me, "You're next."
They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

After the 4-day Thanksgiving break - back to work!

The company that I am working for only observed the following paid holidays:
1. 1St of January - 1-Day
2. Memorial Day (in May) - 1-Day
3. Independence Day - 1-Day
4. Labor Day (in September) - 1-Day
5. Thanksgiving (in November) - 2-Days
6. Christmas - 1-Day
Total - 7-Days

Comparing to Malaysia, we working in the private company in the States don’t have much paid holidays.

I have 10 vacation days. I am saving 5 days for next year to go home to celebrate CNY with my family. I think I work a lot. What do you think?
