They get more interesting as they age. Maybe it’s because now that we’re all adults, we have more to talk about with each other. Maybe it’s just because we’re ready to talk. Growing up, my paternal cousins and I were never close. They grew up playing with gongfu fighting, Nintendo and Sega games, none of […]

Grateful
Sometimes, one person can make all the difference. I’ve been in a quandary work-wise for a while. It’s a long story which I won’t go into detail here. But suffice to say that after having come so far in my thesis proposal, I’ve learned that the topic is not quite feasible. Why? Mainly because there […]
Ann-atom-y
This just in from Toronto. I’ve heard from my roving pigeon-hating reporter in Toronto that a certain legally-inclined friend of mine decided to call me an atom. Why? Because I’ve got an eclectic cluster of “electron” friends! Thank you, Monsieur, for the amusing and flattering analogy. But the real reason why I wanted to make […]
What do you do?
What do you do when someone dear to you is set to take an action that you really believe is bad for her? What do you do when you can’t help but feel that someone you love is not really happy, and will not really be happy? What do you do when you see things […]
Distractions
Prayer and love are really learned in the hour when prayer becomes impossible and your heart turns to stone. If you have never had any distractions you don’t know how to pray. For the secret of prayer is a hunger for God and for the vision of God, a hunger that lies far deeper than […]
HACAS 1996
A photo Mr Miles put up on Facebook, of all places. It’s of the very first History & Current Affairs Society committee in what used to be HCJC. Go ahead, laugh… I’m laughing along with you… and for some of you, I’m laughing at you too!!!! *ROFL*
Friend
A close friend posted this on her blog: What does a 17 yo and a 27 yo have in common? Both long for friends. Friends that u can share your deepest hurts, fears with and not be afraid of stumbling them, hurting them or be rejected. Friends that you can freely share your heart with.. […]
A Neighbourly Gift
For a while now I’ve been smiling at my neighbours without talking to them. You see, my kitchen window looks into their kitchen window, and we can often see each other cooking and cleaning, but we don’t talk because that would require shouting. Every now and then when I’m at the sink, I’d look up […]
"Do not yoke…"
In the last few days different friends of mine have encountered the question/problem of a believer + non-believer relationship. It’s always been a sticky question that Christians have to deal with. What do you if, as a believer, you fall in love with a non-believer and you’re advised by others not to pursue a relationship? […]
Broken Trust
Having a trust broken is one of the most painful experiences. I’m sure we’ve all been on both sides of the fence – of the one breaking the trust, as well as the one being deceived. How do we react? How do we deal with it? When we’re the one being deceived, righteous indignation, hurt […]
