Shoeholic?
Would you compromise, give in or just hold ground with sheer stubbornness?
Thanks to hubby, I love shoes. And to Ross & Marshall stores for the huge discounts which are almost unheard of, it’s mind-boggling!
Just another excuse for one (or two) shoe rack 🙂 Can’t imagine moving with boxes of shoes, clothes and handbags. Time for a serious spring cleaning.
I would not apologize for neglecting you, my dear blog. These past few weeks has been a roller coaster ride, beginning with a discovery of thinning hair-line, fever, stomach flu, indigestion, nausea, and the list goes on… Nope, I am not pregnant. Just not so excited being 31. The reality sinks in. Vigorously counting calories. Instead of just eating, I watch what I eat. Exercise frequently, and cut down on salt and eggs. I dislike being in the 30s 😀
Spring brings joy, blooms, {too much} insects, overgrown lawn, insane amount of weeds killing my lawn, more sunshine, less rain that equals to more sun tan lotion, hat & sunglasses. Sigh. I’ve been complaining too much 🙂
On a lighter note, during my recent trip visiting folks back in Malaysia, I stumbled upon some of my childhood photos. Can you guess ME from this photo?
Me & my siblings 🙂
I‘m back after a long overhaul and melodramatic journey’s across continents! Can’t wait to catch up with every one. It’s been a month since I returned to US. Been super busy! I have a gazillion unread emails and feed reads, so please bear with me while I clear some backlogs. How have you been doing? Drop a “hi” or “hello” and tell me what you’ve been up to.
Love to be back to blogging again 🙂
I missed you all 🙂
… with personal fond memories. I graduated with a MBA degree, healthy and happy! 2009 brought many adventures with traveling and meeting new people with different backgrounds and culture. It was a fun year and hoping for similar adventures in 2010. Times flies. Today would also mark our 2nd blog anniversary in the blogging world. Thank you to all of our readers, friends and families for making Chatterbox, what it is and where it is now 🙂
Apologies for making this post a brief one as traveling can be a challenging episode to blog. With poor Internet connectivity as such. Before I bid adieu to 2009, some of my personal 2009 highlights were my new year resolutions and the revisit, 2009 travelogues, the birth our self-hosting url; kirantarun.com, our photoblog, testing our entrepreneurial skills by establishing an eshop and of course, to be awarded with the Best Rockin Blog in Personal and Photography category by Orlando Sentinel.
I am not setting any new year resolutions for 2010, but would definitely revisit my 2009 goals once again. Over and out!
Have a blessed, happy and wonderful New Year every one 🙂

It’s been one of those crazy and busy month for me. I am currently back to Malaysia for 2 months. Missing hubby and Orlando already. Many incidents took place leading up to my journey back to Motherland. As a summary coz Internet here is failing me:
a) Watched Avatar. One word to sum up – AWESOMENESS!
b) An incident in the theater.
c) Almost missed my flight!
And many more which I shall elaborate as soon as the darn Internet connection stabilizes!
Hope everyone is having a blast as we bid goodbye 2009 and welcome 2010 :). Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year…
Regards,
Kiran & Tarun
