Was going through old photos while searching for photos to do scrapbooking and found some really priceless ones. This was taken 18 years ago, when I was in Primary 3!

The amazing Facebook has done it again! After I uploaded the pictures and tagged those who are already on my list, they went round and started tagging those who are not my list. With these tagging here and there, many of us found even more old classmates. Awesome isn’t it!

Such joy to find old friends.

Made a date with Mumsy to have facial this evening. Not to make Pops feel left out, we asked him to join us later for dinner after the facial.

After the facial was done, we had dinner at TCC and had a cool time chatting and sharing. Of course I didn't forget to capture photos of our foodies:

Mum's Tangy Tamarind Chicken

Pop's and mine: Down-to-earth beef steak

Drinks to share: Nutello espresso. This was pure heaven, and a must-try for all coffee lovers. I had 2 cups on my own!

On the way home, I just had to capture the beautiful Christmas lights along Orchard:

Chit chat continued later when we reached home. Since Hubba hadn't returned home, I spent time at my parents' instead. It was just as well as Kenshin was to follow me home for the night. Here is the patient fellow lying and waiting for me to make good of my promise with his favourite bear:

So now after 2 cups of espresso and a few hours of chit chat, I'm having problems finding dreamland. Argh!

Notes augmented

We've enhanced and de-bugged Notes. If you haven't tried it yet, now's the time! You can create a private note when you ban multiple users. You can also delete multiple notes at once. Lastly, paid users have the option to add a note (visible only to you) whenever you add or remove a friend (guaranteed to avoid embarrassing social mishaps). If you don't currently have a paid account, you can upgrade now! It only takes a few minutes and costs less than a bad shopping mall haircut (plus, it's way more fashionable)!

Product tweaks and bug kill

1. In another effort to zap spam, comments containing links from domains LiveJournal deems untrustworthy are now automatically screened
2. If you sign up to get notifications of the Writer's Block question of the day, you'll now see the daily question in the email notification, so you'll have a little extra time to ponder before you post. You can subscribe to Writers Block notifications here
3. The issue causing random comments to vanish has been fixed!
4. If you visit a LiveJournal page and get prompted to log in, you'll be returned to the same page after you sign in (Thanks, Dreamwidth)!
5. If you don't edit the timestamp for an entry at all, the entry timestamp will indicate the time the entry was posted instead of the time the Update Journal page was loaded
6. Comments with paddings/backgrounds render correctly within the comment box (and will no longer wrap outside the box and break frames/margins)

New FCK fixes rich text editor!

1. We've updated our RTE (Rich Text Editor) to FCKeditor version 2.6.5
2. When switching from the RTE to HTML editor, links for syndicated feeds are no longer broken
3. RTE now functions properly in Safari 4.0
4. An extra line/space will not be auto-inserted whenever you switch from RTE to HTML editor
5. The insert image link now works correctly in all browsers

LiveJournal Cares

We’re pleased to introduce you to lj_cares, a new LiveJournal community dedicated to raising awareness and funds for U.S. charitable organizations that improve the health and well-being of people around the world. Each month, we’ll spotlight a nonprofit that is making a significant global impact through medical research, public outreach, and/or humanitarian social programs. Charities will be selected in accordance with the U.S. calendar of national health observances based on a high rating (of over 60%) on Charity Navigator and global scope of impact.

In this, our inaugural month of November, we will celebrate national adoption month by offering a charitable virtual gift (priced at $2.99) to support Love Without Boundaries, an organization that saves the lives of orphans with life-threatening diseases and places them in loving homes around the world. LiveJournal will donate 100% of the proceeds from the sale of charitable vgifts (we'll cover the cost of credit card transaction fees). To learn more about Love Without Boundaries, please visit lj_cares and read about how they helped save Baby Kang and the Rainbow Twins from fatal illnesses, who are now thriving in nurturing families. You can purchase your Love Without Boundaries gifts in the Virtual Gift shop.

Papered in postcards

A couple of weeks ago, we asked you to send in postcards to surround us with LiveJournal community. Thanks for coming through! We've received postcards all the way from Germany, Finland, and Canada and from all over the US, including Texas, Florida, Alaska, Montana, Wyoming, Indiana, Hawaii, and Oklahoma just to name just a handful. We're thrilled with our improved decor.

Please keep the love coming for one more week by writing to Frank the Goat, Esq., c/o LiveJournal, Inc., 539 Bryant Street, Suite 210, San Francisco, CA 94107. Be sure to include your username, since we'll be drawing the names of ten random contributors next Thursday to win paid account credits!

Photos of the week

We have more dazzling images posted by talented LiveJournal photographers from around the world. We're hoping to span the entire globe, so please continue posting and tagging. Of course, you can also sit back and enjoy the view at lj_photophile.

You can see a sample of this week's gorgeous photos and check out spotlight communities and awesome user content after the jump!

Curtains

We thank you, once again, for joining us. See you next week!

From Bagholicboy’s facebook:

This is the one!! I was going to get this if I could not find the Chanel in London. The leather is incredibly soft and smells damn good! I like how sloppily-shaped it is. Fell in love with it the moment I carried it in Harrods.

“A pity” I found the Chanel on the next level and that depleted my shopping funds greatly. Hence, I could only return to carry it one last time before I left the store.

Now…I wonder if Taiwan has this cheaper..

Kids these days are really smart. I swear my nephew has different personalities for different times of the day.

He’s an angel in the day when he comes over to my room and plays with me. We watch CBeebies or HK TVB dramas, play Facebook Countrystory and learn sounds some animals make, learn colors and new words, roll about in bed, playing with camera and the Berry, etc.

Because I always use the Berry to take photos of us, he has picked that up. He would go, “姑妈, pleee (please)” to borrow my Berry and try taking photos of himself. When he gets a lil’ pesky and doesn’t want to return my Berry, I give him an angry expression and he’d go, “姑妈, soweee (sorry)”. TOO CUTE.

He transforms into the spoilt brat at night when my parents are back home. I’m positive he knows that he can get away with it because they are around and behaves like that. He wails when he doesn’t get his way and switches off our TV every now and then on purpose while we watch. He will wait for your response and run around the living room while we try to catch him.
