Contrasting interests

Yes folks… me and the hubby, though very much in sync on almost anything, do have contrasting interests :).

The Biker (Oh, didn’t I tell you? Yeah, he's into motorbikes! )

during hubby’s two whole day class at HVCC to get his driver’s license.

The Baker (I took a class at Michaels for cake decorating… really fun! Every Wednesday nights last October and November and will be coming back on January for the next and final course).

I’m a Mac

That’s my iBook G4 from late 2003 and yes it’s still working! My first ever computer here in the US that my hubby gave to me on our first Christmas as a couple… which he knows I’m planning on getting for myself but beat me to it. I love him! :) And the first computer I have ever called my own!

Anyway, I have always been fascinated by anything Apple since my awareness of its existence. I think I’m an artist by heart and their product really speaks to me, not only from an IT stand point, but more so on how they are brilliantly and innovatively crafted to give its users the ease of use and the instinctive acknowledgement of how computing should be, uncomplicated and beautiful… truly a work of art. A standard I have personally adopted as an IT.

And as many who have already expressed their love and appreciation to the key man behind it all… I too would like to show my appreciation to this man who makes us look cool… Cheers to you Mr. Steve Jobs! You will stay an inspiration to us all.

Otesaga

I can’t believe summer is over… Oh well, at least we get to enjoy most of it trying new stuff and doing things we love.

I guess we can call this our last summer escapade :). Otesaga is a resort hotel in Cooperstown NY, home of the baseball hall of fame that we got to visit and stayed in for two nights. It was a really nice treat for us… more so because it was a very nice hotel with breakfast and dinner included, and we didn’t have to spend a dime! All because of my hubby’s diligence in exploring probabilities. : )

Then we visited local attractions… so many things to see for such a small town (the hotel provided us the tickets too). Trivia: Cooperstown was named after Judge William Cooper, the father of James Fenimore Cooper the author of a novel series “The Last of the Mohicans”.
