You've Got Mail

April 2005

IVY : - The US vacation was fantastic- visited San Francisco, Dallas, Orlando Florida, Washington DC and New York before flying home. Truthfully of all the places I visited, I prefered Dallas the best. There was something about the calm and yet easy going life. I even considered maybe I should just give up my job and go over to Dallas to study a Masters program. I was kinda sick of my job at that point in time and that US vacation was much needed.

Dallas was fun namely because it was filled with preparations for KC and Tina's wedding. Also I was staying with family and got to live a "proper American life" for about a week, so that was good. As you read in the previous postings, I met Jeh as he was the best man at the wedding. We interacted a few times during those few days and then I left for the rest of my vacation in other US states before heading home to Malaysia. I did think about all the guys I met at the wedding (ahem!!) and was wondering how I could keep in touch with them. I remember I gave my email to Jeh during the wedding dinner, ah ha...my one link to all the friends I met there.

Well, I could ask KC but then too shy to ask him for his friends contacts, right?? Hehehe..

Anyway, I did not think too much of it cos after a 3 weeks vacation I was back to work, work and more work. As I was clearing the hundreds of emails in my office inbox, I saw an email from Jeh! Hurray! He wrote to me! *grin*

Even though I was esctatic inside, but I decided to be cool. Let me take some time to answer the email. Give it a few days. :)






JEH - Below is my first email to Ivy. This is how it all started.

Hi Ivy,

Jeh here!! So how was your trip to Orlando, NY and DC. I bet you are all exhausted and ready for some downtime again. Tell me all about your trip...tower of terror, a bug's life ride...and so on. Here has been quite quiet after you gals left, except maybe talking about the aftermath of the wedding. I really really really hope that things will be fine.

Just saw Sin City today....WOW! This is all I can say. I really liked it. It was ultra violent but the story and the characters are so rich and indepth. If you have a chance, catch it. It might not be your cup of tea though. So any good chinese movie out in Malaysia?

Class is over last Tuesday...YAHOO!!!! I will not be going back until Fall 05. Until then I can enjoy sometime off and do my own things. I have a tons of books that I bought that I have not had a chance to even start it. So sad...:((

Please send me the photo to this account or xxxx@yy.com. Work is xxx@xx.com. Any one is OK.

I am really glad that I get to know you. It would not have be so much fun if you were not there. All I can say is that I enjoy the whole time and it was a blast. Thanks again.

Jeh
