Former British PM Rt Hon Tony Blair gave the graduation speech for Yale University this year. It was an inspiring, largely non-political address. So, after 100 years of Class Days, finally you get a British speaker. What took you so long? Did that little disagreement of 1776 rankle so much? And why...

DAY ONE We arrived in Paris in the afternoon and went straight from Charles de Gaulle Airport to our hostel (St. Christopher's Inn on the Rue de Crimee). It was a 45 minute journey, which was not bad at all except that, for some reason, I had thought it would be a good idea to wear a skirt and heels...

Do I prefer adulthood or childhood? I don't know! I know I like reading about other people's childhoods, which is why I've got a zillion copies of And There Was Light and have a crazy fascination with all the books I read and wanted to read as a child. It's why I buy Chalet School books (but Jesus,...

While it's a bit late, here's my race report from the 2008 ING Ottawa Half Marathon... Earliy Friday morning I boarded a flight to eventually get to Ottawa.

Saw this article and it a good example of the wastages that the BN government incurred from 51 years in power. Imagine if these reckless spending and loses through cronyism and mismanagement didn't occur? Will we be on par with Hong Kong and Singapore in terms of wealth of the rakyat? I don't know...
I flew to Israel via Frankfurt, with a 12-hour layover there. We took a 747, and when we arrived in Frankfurt, we had to use the stairs and walk across the tarmac, rather than using a jet way. I’ve done on for smaller planes before (even 737s), but never for a 747. Walking past it to the gate, I...
Omg, reading this thread on CFH (customers from hell) brought back so many unfortunate memories. I'm currently on my 4th job- all the service industry. From working in the food court (making sandwhiches and smoothies etc), Coles, Cotton On and now the Workplace Infoline. Points to be made: 1) If the...

Get ready for a series of long ass posts about my 11 days on vacation. If you don't like to read such things, feel free to carry on. I don't expect comments or you won't be tested ("Didn't you read that on my blog?!"). This is more so for me. --- Jet Lag - I fell asleep on Tuesday (Wednesday,...
Just over 150 years ago, Abraham Lincoln warned us that "a house divided against itself cannot stand". While the image of national disunion, prophetic as it was, was what captured the national imagination, his actual message was not that the house would fall, not that the Union would crumble, but...
And oh my god. What a trip. What a mess. Well, most things were good, but one thing was very much not so. And that one thing? Brussels Airlines. Never again. When we first arrived at the airport, we were told that we were going to be late. They had overbooked the flight and needed volunteers in...
