Zibin (my spouse ‘other-1/2’), Ivy (my original prefect ‘other-1/2’) and I were having a conversation and the topic drifted somehow to Korean dramas. (Ivy has never watched any Korean drama, ever.) I mentioned a trivia I had just come across recently, that Autumn in My Heart was the first K-drama that sparked the Korean wave […]

Beware if you snore
Last night hubby and I went to bed pretty late and we were very tired. As usual, Zibin fell asleep almost as soon as his head hit the pillow. I, on the other hand, had to drift off to sleep. Fortunately, Zibin wasn’t snoring (as sometimes he is wont to do when he is too […]

Missing snowy Toronto
Photo from [daily dose of imagery] I don’t miss the slush, nor the sub-zero temperatures. But I do miss the sight and feel of freshly fallen snow. For the past few days I find myself returning again and again to this particular photo in DDOI. There’s something silent and beautiful about this snow scene… something […]
RSAF Family Cohesion Day
F16 D+ and RSAF pilots [this shot is pretty nice in larger size] Dunno why these pilots like very act cool to me… it was a cloudy day but they all were wearing shades and ‘lounging’ while letting the wind blow their hair… ha ha… too bad none of them look like Tom Cruise in […]
Mom's Birthday Imperial Hi-Tea
Mom, John & Me @ Tian Fu Teahouse On Mom’s birthday yesterday, John & I both wished to bring her out for high-tea. John wanted to bring us to the Equinox high-tea buffet which was a sumptuous international spread with a gorgeous view of the city. I had a much humbler proposal – the Imperial […]
Light up my feet
Floor of the walkway link between T2 & T3 at Changi Airport Do you sometimes discover light where you don’t expect to find it? Sometimes mud isn’t the only thing under your feet. Perhaps now and then not being in sharp focus can yield a thing of beauty. ************ Lent began last Wednesday amidst CNY […]

Jay Chou is spelt R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
About a month ago, my 18 yr old cousin Yimei made a throwaway comment that raised my eyebrows. We were casually talking about pop singers, and I can’t remember who I was asking about. I asked her if such and such a singer was as good as or better than Jay Chou. She replied, “Of […]
