Ok I read that whole thing all about you. LOVED IT! I appreciate your sense of humor, but there is one thing I really wanted to know and couldn’t find.

Why “killing batteries”?

I’m willing to challenge you to a parallell parking contest! (being a former Angelino gives me an unfair advantage)

Love your writing style and zest for life! While I clicked on your clever ‘do you hate authority’ button, it must be said that I can’t hate something that I pay no regard to! (yes, many examples can be given, but I won’t take up space on your page) It seems you and I have the same outlook on life and travel…thanks for the fun blog! I do love a cranky Norwegian :) I look forward to keeping up with you!

Now that was one enjoyable reading i just did!… makes me consider to leave my job and go backpacking…we’ll, some friends call me crazy lady when i did a solo backpacking in mainland China…chinese language knowledge? NADA… as in zero… but i made it…and enjoyed my trip…now i’m really good in sign (read:muttering and grunting) language.
Thank you for being an inspiration…guess i need to consider traveling more often now (while my knees could still endure it)
My goal: to see Antarctica before i turn 45

Cheers

Hi Leif, I am constantly searching for ways to make life happier and more meaningful. To bring some out-of-the-box thinking into the office, I just circulated your article “Slackerology 101″ (published in Vitamn) to some of my colleagues in a binder that I created titled “Things that make you go hmmm…” My intent is that everyone will contribute interesting articles like yours to this binder, and permit themselves to take time for a bit of healthy leisure reading and discussion at work. I am a creative writer at heart, but spend my work days pouring over technical writing. Your article made me chuckle and reminded me of the fun things one can do with words when they are able to free themselves a bit. Thank you.

Hi Sharina, the Singapore comment is just a joke following the previous comment about a straitjacket. I was not tied up in a straitjacket while in Singapore. I really loved it there actually. Though one time I was detained at Singapore airport because they said I did not look like my passport photo (I had lost some weight while traveling in the hot season). I only wanted to change planes! :)

Hi (: Love the website. You have the best job in the world.

One QQ, why would you not go back to Singapore? (: I’m local and it’s just out of curiosity. I laughed so hard when I read that line.

All the best!
