My first audblog here on my own blog.
I’m exploring the possibility of turning my audioblog into my own Podcast show. Something that I have been wanting to do for a while. But never good enough and have enough money. But with podcasting, I can actually start doing my own audio programming with what I already have.
Once the tech side is up and ready, I can go into actually producing the show.
But before it turns into a show, the post would just be me calling into Audioblogger.com and leave my thoughts.

Here’s my first audblog (techically second, the first one was a test):

A few days ago, my parents came over to our house. Mom made
yummy ?lobak? (thin bean curd sheet wrapped in pork, five spice and onions,
then deep fried) and fried wonton.

After that, I set up a couple of folding tables out in the
garage for my parents and brother to carve their pumpkins.

Dad has always been the artistic one. But has never
celebrated Halloween nor carved a pumpkin. He was very excited this project.
After picking out a template from a book, he started tracing it onto the
pumpkin. He chose the Witch template. My
mom was helping a bit too. My brother picked the Spider template.

While they are carving, I was roasting the pumpkin seeds. My
mom enjoys the seeds most.

I?m so happy that the get to experience some fall activities
during this visit. I hope they?d get to experience winter too, but so far, both
of them are not quite ready for snow and very cold climate! Well, then again,
I?m not quite ready for it yet too.

Just a few weeks ago, I was at home waiting for my parents
to arrive. Now, with only a few weeks left, they will be going back to
Malaysia.

This time my parents get to actually see a whole new season
during their visit to the USA. They?ve always been sorta concerned about the
weather. That?s understandable if you spent almost all of your lives in the
tropic. Cold weather is the major concern. They always plan their trip around
summer time. But this time, unplanned, they had to postponed their summer trip
to the fall. And it turned out to be a blessing for all of us, and for my
parents. When it’s cold, they’d stay home under the covers.

Right now, they are very excited about the changing colors
of the leaves, and for a change, a cooler weather.

Due to my new job, I haven?t been able to spend too much
time with my parents as I wish to. But last night I went out with my parents to
the beloved Costco. We spent over an hour
shopping. Mom bought a sweat shirt, some socks, and I bought some bottled water
and a roast chicken (the new mesquite chicken wings are GOOD!).

With just a few weeks more for parents to be here, I wish
they would stay until the end of the year and go back to Malaysia with me.
