		<title>Relief</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My mom was transferred back to a regular room after 3 days in the ICU. She underwent rigid bronchoscopy on Tuesday night. The doctors took tissue samples for culturing and discovered many blood clots in her left lung and cleaned them out. A part of her left lung is damaged but wasn&#8217;t bleeding that time so they figured the antibiotics would take [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=675&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>To all kind souls&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;I&#8217;d like to ask for your prayers. My mom has been in and out of the hospital since last week, coughing out blood. She was initially diagnosed with ulcer and lung infection and was given medication. The next doctor who checked said she has pneumonia and placed her on antibiotics. However, her attacks haven&#8217;t stopped.

		<title>The best is yet to come&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Quick update&#8211;
It has been a busy 2 months for me. Getting used to a new city, new work environment and people, finding a place to live and wrapping things up in Melbourne&#8211;I am exhausted, but thankful that everything fell into place. I am now in my new apartment, happy to have finished unpacking and finally [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=670&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bye, 2008</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent the last few hours looking through my pictures from the last 3 years, picking out the best ones to be printed at Ted&#8217;s when I return to Australia. It was a walk through memory lane as well. I cannot believe how fast time flies and how much I&#8217;ve changed.
There are many things I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=665&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Back in Manila &#8211; Reflection # 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Each trip to Manila is a filter to sort out who values your limited time back home. I appreciate those who make the effort not to keep you hanging with invites or show up on time during gatherings. I think it&#8217;s basic courtesy and sign of respect and I make it a point to treat [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=663&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Valrhona chocolate cigar filled with smoked chocolate, rolled in puff pastry ‘cigar’ leaves
Vue de Monde is one of Melbourne&#8217;s top-rated restaurants.  Britnie joked that the dinner probably costs a leg and she was right. However, you can&#8217;t put a price on experience so I was all for it. I went with Beth and got a weeknight [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=654&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If my next apartment has a balcony or any outdoor space, I swear I will get one of these.
The Earthbox was featured in Better Homes and Gardens and it&#8217;s meant to be an option for gardening in compact spaces.
Check other products in the Green Demon website.  I love the Solar Backpack, the Obon Newspaper Colored Pencils and the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=651&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Thai Food</title>

I saw this website&#8230;.HEHEHHE.

		<title>Plunge it!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Used my coffee plunger for the first time this morning. I decided on the organic coffee from Aldi for starters; I&#8217;m still learning what coffee experience I like best.
My verdict: Smelled the pot right after steeping and the aroma was not appealling to me. However, the taste is on the mild side and smooth (good thing I wasn&#8217;t entirely turned [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shiryin.wordpress.com&blog=1119407&post=642&subd=shiryin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
