I didn’t realize how tired I was until Yoga class this evening. For the first half of class, the teacher was covering basic movements and postures on the back. Every once in a while, I’d suddenly realize that I wasn’t doing anything, except lying there. And that although I could hear the instructor’s voice going […]

Precious Lessons
Mom left Toronto early this morning for L.A. And right at the moment when we hugged and kissed good-bye at the airport, it suddenly hit me how much I missed her already. The past 10 days were very special for us, because we rarely have such a big block of time to spend together anymore. […]
Spilt (Soya Bean) Milk
It’s late, and as usual, I was feeling a little hungry. So I decided to get a cup of warm soya bean milk. Zibin decided to be a copy-cat and asked for a cup too. Then, he actually challenged me to a duel (by poking me), thinking I wouldn’t retaliate because he was holding a […]
A Positive Spirit
I accomplished quite a lot of work today. So did my mom. *grin* While I began work on the paper I will be presenting at the GSCOPE conference, pots and faucets in the kitchen were silently polished to a shine. Clean dishes and cutlery kept mysteriously disappearing into cabinets throughout the day. The laundry room […]
Saluting Gadflies
This is my program’s latest advertisment post-card. I thought it’s pretty cool. *grin* For those unfamiliar with the philosophical reference, Socrates was described as a gadfly. I’m too tired and short of time now to give a more detailed elaboration, so you can check out wikipedia’s explanation of the term here. Seriously though, one doesn’t […]
A Different Snore
When I woke up this morning, Mom told me she didn’t sleep well last night. She kept getting interrupted. First by a phone-call from Singapore… and then later on, by a ringing phone she couldn’t locate. Well, she thought it was a phone ringing… in vibration mode. And she went all over my room trying […]
Different
It happened. Today, my mom and I broke our ‘agreement’ to not chat at length except in the evening. From the moment we woke up we started talking… and though I went to OISE to meet my supervisor (and my mom went too to say hi), the rest of the day was spent with my […]

Wanting's Shiatsu Dream
When we were in Ithaca, my housemates and I went to BedBath & Beyond. After browsing the store a while, we came across Melissa blissfully trying out a massage chair type thing. It was amazing. I was sorely tempted to purchase one. And so was Wanting. The two of us have been each other’s massage […]
Google-Me
August 24th, 2002. That was the date for UTBound 2002 at The Oaks Grill in Singapore. Last night, Zibin was bored and googled his own name, and then mine. And he informed me that if I limited the results for ‘Ann Yeong’ to images, I would see a photo of me and John. Turns out, […]
