Spotlight

I'm a bit curious why the light inside our room is getting cranky at times.  We experience dim nights occasionally.  So the only solution is to turn on the lamp shade which does a little help but is not sufficient to cover all areas of the room specially the cabinet. Hope this won't carry on for a long time. Or else I will request the housing office to install proper home lighting or modify the light fixtures in our room.

Christmas is getting nearer and I wish to add up some bathroom fixtures so it would be more comfortable to use.  I'm expecting some friends to be in our house on Christmas Eve.

With all the activities that are keeping me occupied, I wonder if my wish would come true.  Anyway, this can wait.  First things first.  

Freezing Friday

The temperature is dropping each day but of no significance compared to western countries.  I have closed all our windows, exhaust fan and even bathroom ventilations. It is always a battle waking up and facing bath time. Brrrrr….I wish I could install the water heater stored on our unused closet. 

Hence, I felt more active after taking cold shower compared to the lukewarm.  My body temperature can adjust easily with the weather outside our house. Still I'm happy despite of the coldness. For there's no rain to bother me and my warm clothes were put into good use.

Storing My Precious Photos and Music Collections

I have tons of digital photos stored as a product of my hobby in photography. I also have lots of music collections of the favorite singers and Christian music. I make regular backups of the files that I have on my external drive. Never take chances on your data, sometimes the harddisk goes amok dead and there goes the precious data.

One day even my external drive was not spared; it fell off the floor and oh.. all of my precious data was in there. I was lucky at that time that I have recovered my data and it opened my eye to the possibility of having an Online Storage to back up my data. I have heard of an application IBackup Drive that could be installed on local computers. It is a remote storage that could be mapped to the local drive of the local computer. After which one can use it like any other local drive of Windows.

It's easy to use, similar to using a regular drag-n-drop, copy and paste of Windows explorer to backup files. This is very could be a safer way for me to keep my treasured photo and music files.

A Fulfilling First Day of Caroling

The AIT Catholic Community, every year, goes around houses in greater Bangkok to bring the joyful tidings of Christmas and to raise funds for the orphan and AIDS patients in the slums of Mercy Centre, Klong Toey. Today, we started our first caroling within the campus of AIT.

The first house we caroled was a non-Christian family who were from Indian origin. They invited us to sing them carols each year. This year was quite special for they have their relatives joining them for the evening. The response was overwhelming as everyone got teary eyed by our songs.

We are really blessed to be part of this fulfilling activity of the community.  God is really good.
