Rejuvenation...by Highway 1

My blog has been under neglect again. This always happens when im fighting internal battles with myself, and feeling lost. Re-alignment of direction is always so tiring when corporate changes occurs year after year. Rejuvenation is always very much needed during such times....and luckily, there are always people here to drag me out to enjoy this beautiful country(“美国”).

I love the house parties here. People gather, make friends, mingle, and share the joy of living despite being from all over the world. This is what i call celebrating diversity.

This is what i call Silicon Valley.

Black Angus Steakhouse

Shaorong & Weijie is going back to Singapore after completing their internship. And we have earlier decided to experience the authentic US prime rib before his departure on the 19th of Dec.

Black Angus Steakhouse was the restaurant of choice. Awfully ex in sg, but its ok-priced here.


The sample platter was kinda interesting. A mixture of all kinds of their appetizer, inclusive of some loaded baked potato, with crispy skins on the outside, and supple on the inside...impressive.

This is the Angus-cut, Prime Rib. I couldn't believe a steak this red is medium-rare! But boy was it tasty! Succulent it was, and simply tender. Amazing thing was, its not marinated. Never had anything like this back in Sg. I feel so cheated by Jacks Place!!


Woah, this was cool shit! Its the Chocolate Alaska. 2 brownies and a scoop of ice-cream under the foamy, baked marshmallow mess.....

Last Autumn in Sunnyvale...

This autumn will have a special place in my heart. The reddish leaves remind me of my 1st month here. Suddenly, it also tells me how i will look back with nostalgia when its time for me to return.

Spring and Autumn are my favorite seasons. However, they always seem so short. Its funny how life deals with us the good times, and the bad. Good times always seem so short, just like spring and autumn. Not-so-good times are always a little longer - winter. The beauty of autumn only lasts those 2-3 short weeks, and winter stays for months to bring all the beauty to dust.
