Stanford Cardinal...
My fascination with American culture continues with college sports (NCAA). Being a sports nut I had to have a university to follow in the NCAA and that uni for me is Stanford University. Don't know why; just because...

Chick-fil-a...
American fast food are aplenty, but this has got to be "one of the healthiest" (if there could be such a thing) and it happens to one of the yummiest as well...

Best of friends...
If I was to have a BFF, this guy would be the closest thing to it. This photo was taken when we were on our way to the airport for our Japan '08 trip. Even though we might have drifted apart now that we've "grown up" it's always good to catch up with W...

Our Deepest Fear...
This has got to be one of my favorite quotes. It's from the book "A Return to Love" by Marianne Williamson. I remember the first time I heard it; it felt as though it was directed right at me. Even now, it's a constant reminder of who I was created for...

Everybody jump...
This was Pulse Ministries in its earlier days. A youth ministry I help planted back in 2004(?). Through it all (both highs and lows) I experienced plenty of growth and had a lot in shaping who I am today...

Watching RipCity...
I know it wasn't at the Rose Garden, but this was my 'chance' of watching the Portland Trailblazers in the flesh! It was also an experience being an away fan. Unfortunately the blazers lost that night, but it was their third game in three nights. RipCity...

I call her my twin...
She is my second cousin to be precise, but in reality she is more like my twin sister. I have told people that we were separated at birth, one ended up in LA and the other in Sydney. Introducing Wai & Waich...

This is my town...
This is the city I call home. As much as I like other cities around the world, Sydney is always where I return back home to. As they say, home is where the heart is...

The Snow Summit...
The Big Bear snowfields has to be one of my favorite. It isn't because of the quality of the snow (similar to that in Oz), but because it's within 2hrs of LA...

News broke yesterday one of my favorite player, Steve Nash, is going to be a Laker from next season. To me Nash will always be a Sun of PHX; first drafted, traded and then returned. Hope you get your ring you deserve...

Welcome to Mt (s)Hutt...
An awesome mountain with a view to match. Only thing; from the 5 days we planned to go up, 2.5 of the days the mountain was closed due to "strong winds". Hence the famed nickname...

Beginning to be capped...
Celebrating the forth of July; why not showcase "America's favorite past time" my way! Growing up there was a phase where I would wear baseball caps & now I think that phase has began again... Starts off with this cap that I got in San Francisco...
