Well not all night, exactly. But I sure had fun at the SMA (Singaporean Malaysian Association) CNY dinner gala tonight! What started out as an obligation (the MSSA excos had to go) turned out into an evening of great enjoyment. The fact that I went out on to the dance floor showed how happy I […]

After dinner last night, HX suddenly played Indecent Obsession’s ‘Fixing A Broken Heart’, a song that my friends and I had sung in Sec 3 during a skit for our prefect seniors’ farewell. I was put in a whimsical mood for the rest of the night. Music has always had that effect on me…and suddenly […]

The title pretty much sums up my last 12 hours. Around 2a.m. last night, I was almost ready to go to bed…but I was thinking about the carrot cake in my fridge (the carrot cake that the resident chef of Chez Chew had lovingly made and given us for CNY). I was hungry, and although […]

I’m shameless about this… I love it when something happens that let me know that someone is thinking of me. And for some reason, these past 2 days, I’ve been showered with small gestures that’s put a smile to my face. An out-of-the-blue msn “i miss you” from not one, but TWO very dear friends […]

This afternoon out of the blue I got an sms from HM: “Just read in today’s Varsity (UofT’s campus newspaper). Arbor Room to close on June 30. Apparently they have been operating at a loss all this while.” My heart sank. I scrambled onto the internet to look for the online report. It didn’t say […]

Most of the time I can be alone, and comfortable, and I can even listen to the most plaintive music there is and be ok. But sometimes when I’m alone, the emptiness around me becomes palpable and the silence is almost tangible. At such times, it’s so hard to find the ‘right’ music to play […]

I’m a homebody…staying home is usually very pleasant for me. But after having stayed indoors for nearly 4 days straight, it was lovely to step out for some fresh air today. I also more than made up for those long hours of solitude with a really long chat with HM. I suppose that could be […]

Getting mail used to be a rare and pleasant occurrence. A greeting card, an unexpected letter from a friend (these are still rare occurrences now, and still much cherished and beloved). Nowadays, those three little words “you’ve got mail” that I hear from Wanting produce in me a sense of resignation. I’m inundated with mail […]

Went to check out the Stratford Festival’s 2006 playbill and found The Duchess of Malfi! What a blast from the past…it was a play I spent tedious hours over for my A-levels. I’ve never seen it staged though…wouldn’t it be something to catch it live? There are other interesting plays with less murderous themes too…decisions, […]
