So I tweeted, on a Sunday morning, while I was still lazing in bed refusing to get my ass out of bed. But it was at that moment where the inspiration and idea came to mind.

After four years of blogging or what I call story sharing, I was feeling tiresome doing the same thing. Though there are the occasional urge to share what I did over the weekend and all, but those are shared in mini-blurbs on the other blog of mine. With the battlefield I fight daily at work, I find it even more challenging to maintain a blog like I used to.

I’ve always got thoughts and point of view which I want to voice out here, but when I finally get some time to sit and type, all these points just disappeared. Like I’d said before, I would really really love to have a gadget to record everything I have in mind and put them in written notes. That’ll be ultra cool! Till the day someone knock on my door with that power device, I could only wish.

So that Sunday morning, a thought of this monthly thinggy came to mind. It has been something which I’d wanted to do all these while, but never really set my mind to. So now that I’m going to set aside a few days each month to get this mini-project of mine going, I’m excited about the possibilities!

Before I slowly unveil this thinggy, I would like you to make a guess. What do you think this ReFresh! of mine will be? ReFresh! may not be the name I’ll be using, just a generic noun to call this monthly thinggy. (ReFresh! sounds better than the monthly thinggy right? The latter sounds like… “Aiyah… my monthly thinggy is here!”)

Go ahead, make a guess…

By the way, the above mini poll is created with the Seashellapp, which is created by one of my inspirational people on earth, Jon. I’ve been using his other creation, Peashootapp for almost a year, and I’m loving it still! Go give these cute and useful apps a look see?

Now back to my drawing board for this monthly thinggy/ ReFresh! I’m masterminding… *coughs*

Tough road ahead.

Someone once told me that one can never be too busy to blog. But when mind is overly clouded by the millions and one things, its tough to set time and mind aside to find the right tone to blog.

Claudia the Panda is taking a breather.
Working on something (hopefully) great.

One thing I love about keeping a blog is being able to look back at what I’ve done in the past and smile at those beautiful memories. Before we move forward to a smashing good year in 2010, I’m going to do a flash back of what happened in 2009, a very short and quick one.

Ok, Claudia! Time to wake up! Go do your Christmas Shopping lah! Stop dreaming! Quick wish your readers merry christmas!!

Go have a blast!

After a week from blogathon, I’m still not fully adjusted with my inner clock. Two nights within this week of insomnia and the hectic working hours are adding more stress. I need to find time for myself. If only I could stop thinking and doing work after working hours. If only I could take few days leave to give myself the “ME” time. None of that happening anytime soon.

Till I have more ME time, this blog will probably be in hiatus. When I do return, it should hopefully be with a new skin for my blog too.

Have switched my host to Vodien after THC died on me at the most critical timing! But since its a lifetime hosting plan, I’ll have to find purposeful use for it soon. Anyone needs a testing ground?

Hope Vodien will not fail on me. If it can holds Lester’s site well so far, I’m sure mine wouldn’t be of any problem.

Till the day I return… find me on Twitter still.

I will disappear from the online world for the whole of this week. Because we are moving! We needed a bigger place at a cheaper rent. So we are moving out of our cosy little office at The Sail and into the neighbourhood. We love our $3 bowl of noodle and the $14 set lunch was hurting our own wallet a little too much. So we decided to move.

This whole week, expect to see very little of me on Twitter, MSN and don’t expect any blog post. More updates coming after we settle down in our new home office.

If you’re wondering why we need an entire week to move, visit 24seven’s blog next week to find out!

OMG!! I tell you!! I want to scream and than quickly dig a huge hole in the ground and hide inside!! I feel guilty, silly, stupid and a total bimbo right now!

First I would like to thank Kahwee for his rescue and Uzyn for creating the backup host for me which than lead Kahwee to discover that it was the wordpress theme that causes all the problem! Quoting from Kahwee, “didn’t know a theme can be so powerful..” Yes! It was the typography theme that I adored so much that causes it!

Than I have to apologize to my web host – Top Hosting Centre. When my blog went down after the WordPress 2.8 upgrade, the immediate reaction was “WTH is happening to my host!!!??!!” Yap, that I’m sure is the first reaction of most people. This was hyped up even more since the host server was down two weeks ago when I was hosting the Search for N contest. Naturally I submitted a new ticket and demanded for them to get it fixed asap. But after 48hours, they couldn’t tell me what went wrong! Because the direction I thought the error was from was wrong! Its not because of the database crashing but its because of a critical conflict with the wordpress theme! Sooo sorry Sandra from THC for the big boo boo!

Now my blog is back, I feel alive again!! Woohooo!!!

Back to setting up my MBP! Yap! I got it!! More updates in my tweets! And also checked out the setting up qik I live-streamed just now.
