3.53 a.m. For the first time since I moved in last August, I woke up in the middle of the night and can’t get back to sleep. And I think it might be because I’m too excited by a dream I was having. Wanting’s back in Singapore for a visit, and I’m planning a gathering […]

Hubby & Me
Zibin’s post on our blog withjoyfulhearts: *********** Zibin’s sick again. The poor guy hasn’t had much time to rest since he fell sick the last time. One day MC was all he took the last time, and he’s had to work 13 to 14 hr days, organize and run retreats, and prepare for presentations at […]
It REALLY Is Nice To Be Sick
I vaguely remember I made a similar blog entry sometime ago, so I went through all previous posts and indeed found one. It is interesting to read back on some of these old posts… :) Anyway, here I am sick again almost exactly one year from back then. And this time round, I am pampered […]
Canon PowerShot G9
Zibin got me a Canon PowerShot G9 in December. Why didn’t I blog about it earlier? There are two main reasons: 1. I felt guilty. I know my enthusiastic reports to him about how wonderful the camera was in reviews must have influenced him in getting me this rather extravagant present. 2. I felt inadequate. […]
Broken Families
I am convinced that there are more unhappy families than there are happy ones. Divorce and single parent statistics are only the tip of the iceberg. There has to be many more families as good as broken that fly beneath the radar because they are from all appearances ‘happy’. I know (sadly) too many people […]
MacBook Air *be still my heart*
Apple has done it again – reduce me to a momentarily quivering pool of unadulterated techno-lust. A year ago when I purchased my MacBook, I felt that it was only a matter of time before Apple designs a truly ultra-portable notebook computer that not only is THIN but also LIGHT. Is MacBook Air the answer? […]
Casa Jean
*UPDATED BELOW* [See #5: Talking fast is a sign of RESPECT] There’s a very old friend of mine whose name hasn’t been appearing on my blog because we haven’t been in touch much since I started blogging. Her name is Jean. Jean is like a stick of dynamite. Strong, passionate, bright, bursting with creativity and […]
Mom's a Mac user now!
Hee hee hee… that’s right! My mom needed a new computer and asked me to accompany her to shop for one. What else would you expect? We went home with an iMac (installed with Leopard OS and iLife ’08 which rock the most!) ha ha ha… It wasn’t a frivolous buy. With my mom’s computer […]
Can you see the raindrops?
Raindrops falling outside my study window I get an adrenaline rush when there’s a bona fide tropical thunderstorm. The view from my window is a blur. I can hear the pitter-patter of raindrops hitting my window. I can feel the tremor when the thunder rolls. Power. Might. Grandeur. It’s like Mother Nature decided to give […]
You can't stop the beat… 'cos it's Hairspray!
I was never inspired to watch Hairspray (neither the musical nor the film). However, the movie was playing in the video rental store a couple of weekends ago when Zibin and I went to look for something to watch. It looked and sounded interesting enough that we decided to give it a go. After watching […]
