About 3 weeks before my wedding this year, I came across an advertisement in a bridal magazine. It was an advert for a company called “Wedding Harmony” that specializes in writing, performing and recording original wedding songs tailored for bridal couples. If the couple likes to sing, they could even be coached to make their […]

Best Hubby
I owe it to Zibin to write a post in gratitude to him tonight. I have an old fault: once I have something in mind to do, I have been known to suffer from tunnel vision. Suddenly everything else just gets forgotten or overlooked until I can achieve the objective in mind. Tonight, because I […]
"Dear Friend"
The post below is written by the Friend I met up with last week. It’s an absolutely beautiful testimony that I’m sure will resonate with many of you. It resonated very deeply with me for it describes the journey that I too had been on. Here’s to all who have ever desired true friendship. Have […]
Attitude
One of the enduring qualities I appreciate about people is the ability to generate positive energy. I like those who, when faced with a problem, soon think of how they can solve the problem or transform the problem into a learning opportunity instead of moping around with a defeatist attitude.

My mom’s family is is in town these few days of our annual gathering in Singapore. As part of the program, we brought them to the Terminal 3 Open House for a sneak peek. Construction was still going on in quite a lot of areas, especially in the transit area. But the guided tour we […]

I never liked the cartoon Snow White, but Rachel Weisz really fits as the ‘fairest of them all’ doesn’t she? ******* Disney’s Enchanted comes […]
Snow in Toronto
“it’s supposed to snow tonight. it’ll be the first night of heavy snow i hope. it’s long due.” That line in Wanting’s email immediately conjured up in my mind of how Murray St. looked like from my bedroom window during heavy snow. I miss that exhilarating feeling of watching heavy clusters of snowflakes dance their […]
Friend
Have you ever asked yourselves why you value your friendships? Friendships are good for many reasons of course, and it serves different purposes at different stages of a person’s life. What I value most in my friendships now is the role my friends play in making me a better person. Companionship is nice, and it’s […]
False familiarity
I may have offended quite a number of people through Facebook. I’ve ignored Friend requests as well as all manners of pokes, probes, sheep-throwing and some wall messages as well. I may be out-of-date with the whole netizen whirl, but I still prefer my online interactions to be with people I know personally, and preferably, […]
