The husband caught me off guard this morning. He was working in the study, I was making the bed in the bedroom while listening to the soundtrack of Wicked!. Only I wasn’t just listening. I was singing along at the top of my lungs and twirling and dancing around the bed. He entered the room […]

An Aquarius' food follies with the Scorpios
Scene: Today’s breakfast at IMM Jurong… dim sum at food court… Zibin had painstakingly cut up a piece of fried carrot cake for himself. I didn’t see him do it… I was talking to my mom. I take the piece of carrot cake he had cut up and pop it in my mouth. Zibin: *eyes […]
Sisters in Christ
When I stopped wishing and looking for intimate friends who could understand me, God gave me sisters. Thank you, Lord, for giving me friends who love me, and who share my love for you. Thank you for close friends with whom I can bare my soul and share my deepest struggle and most profound joy […]

It's the little things
The husband played soccer at work today. And as he hurried into the bathroom to take a shower before we leave for the Alpha Course in church, he told me that he needs to return the soccer jersey tomorrow. That meant that we would have to start the washing machine before we leave home so […]
Oh what wonderful fun!
This is a taping session done by the cast of the musical The Producers. Watch how much they enjoy themselves singing in a studio! Oh how I would love to be involved in something like that… imagining that I can sing like that of course! I find Gary Beach (the main solo for this song) […]
