Happy St. Patricks Day! No need to pinch me with these beautiful soles on. If these won’t make you lucky, I don’t know what will.

Helping Japan

nmyra — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 15:35:37 +0000

If you’re interested in helping the earthquake/tsunami aftermath in Japan, here are some non-profit organizations and charities that do great work. These are great alternatives to The Red Cross. Personally, I’ve always been very weary of The Red Cross. The organization is laced with mismanagement and unethical use of funds. I encourage the public and all my readers to closely research and monitor their practices before opting to allocate your contributions there.

With the threat of radiation and potential aftershocks still looming, the country of Japan needs our help. Additionally, these charities below also need our help to further their relief efforts.

Happy Lunar New Year

Happy year of the rabbit (or cat in the Vietnamese zodiac calendar)! Love this Lego dragon dance figurine. Geeky but then again, so is this blog. As I always say, there’s a way to modernize and update without disregarding the intentions of the past. To all my readers, here’s to a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year. Chúc mừng năm mới!

iPhone 4

I got my iPhone 4 a day before the official launch. I love it. It’s like holding the future in the palm of your hands. Good luck to everyone braving the lines today — it’s worth it!

*Props to Fedex (my favorite shipping company) for getting it to me on time and in one piece.

Silly name but pretty awesome looking product.

Holiday Season

I love this time of year. Cooler weather. Friends and family. Shorter days. Gatherings. Food and wine! Boots and scarves! I could go on and on. It also means 2010 is just around the corner!

Hawaii, here I come!

nmyra — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 14:33:12 +0000

I’ll be leaving for Hawaii tomorrow. I can’t wait to return to paradise. My time there will be split between the Big Island (Hawaii) and Oahu. Can’t wait to see a Hawaiian sunset while sipping on a Mai Thai. I leave you with this…
