51. I yearn to metamorphose like a butterfly all the time; I think there is always an ongoing expectation in myself that strives for positive changes in life

53. I never make it a habit to eat American Fast Food when I am in Asia but I revel in yummy burgers in the States; my favorite burger is Japanese though; you can find chains in Japan, Singapore and New York City called Mos Burger; instead of buns, they use rice cakes to sandwich the darn meat
54. My husband thinks I worry too much about life possibly because I am meticulous about everything under the sun
55. When overseas I partake in running hashes; no they’re not a drug activity; they’re an international phenomenon where people meet to work out an 8 mile run and then later drink beer; the beer part I leave it all to my dear husband to enjoy
56. In 2000 3 weeks after moving to Texas from overseas I had encountered an incident where I was cornered at gunpoint by some darn redneck woman and her 15 year old daughter. Guns are illegal in Singapore.
57. A month later I went up north to my in-laws, borrowed their MKs and learned how to shoot.
58. Interesting enough, I made and exhibited a series of digital art where the theme is the Gun and I.
59. Do not fear. I do not keep guns and I will not hurt anyone irresponsibly ha!
60. I am kind-hearted and in real life soft-spoken but give me a bad attitude and I will honestly let you know upfront what I’m really made of ; Thai chillies complete in a package
61. I appreciate true talent and artists who do their work out of a sincere thirst for expression
62. I also believe that everyone needs to appreciate art at least one form of art in their lifetime even if they can’t find a reason to
63. My favorite idea of a vacation is to fly to the island of Bali and enjoy the dance, art and local festivities at the temples

66. Yes I think everyone should make it a point to experience Bali at least once in their lifetime; it will change your life!

68. I also like collecting spinning wheels that are Scandinavian inspired
69. Scandinavian looms have also been the most beautiful and the most interesting equipment I have ever woven on

71. If I have a chance at a property in Norway, I would set up a spinning and weaving studio overlooking the seascapes
72. I am a very organized person and I appreciate others who are ardently fans of the neat and proper
73. I have reason to believe that neat and proper people can appreciate their life, family and friends better than if they weren’t
74. That said, need and proper people also have a better consideration for others and their spaces
75. I love wearing chaco sandals because they’re comfy and clean looking but unfortunately heels are what I have to put on when I’m at work
76. Yes I own several pairs of those chaco sandals mainly in very pretty berry and pink-mauve colors and if I have the choice of trading my heels, I ‘d go for a wardrobe full of chacos
77. The best and nicest things in life aren’t free; and unfortunately some people think they are
78. I enjoy watching my toddler identify the objects on her flashcards; the joy of learning is endless

80. Apples and Oranges are the best healing foods one can have in their diet but lately pom juice is what we drink around here
81. I love shopping at the wholesfood market because it carries a variety of foods from all over the world
82. Interestingly enough a wide array of global foods in one’s diet can make up for a more healthier life. Imagine adding tofu and green tea instead of sodas to your meals
83. While some people say the chiropractor is a neccessity, I’d opt for an excellent Balinese massage and a feel good haircut
84. Hot springs are a good way to rejuvenate yourself as well
85. Ultimately a good swim workout and a few rounds in the park will perk your senses
86. While I have collections of spinning wheels, my husband revels in his 2 wheeler mountain bikes; yes there seems to be a pattern for things that spin in this house
87. We have done the MS 150 Bike Rides and mountain bike trails is what my husband enjoys
88. While having enjoyed tropical weather most of my youth due to all the beach and windsurfing activities, I now yearn for a much cooler weather
89. Possibly because much cooler climates can attest for my woolly leisures and be the perfect environment for woolly critters
90. My favorite woods are figured myrtle, figured maple and box elder and I have a collection of fiber tools and spinning wheels made out of these; I keep them as heirlooms for my children
91. I appreciate a pretty dress on a nice occasion but my favorites are a pair of nice J Crew jeans and a pretty sweater
