It’s nice in a way…that I get a brief sample of winter the day before I fly back to tropical Singapore. For the first time in my 7 yr stay in Toronto though, I might miss the first ‘real’ snowy day. Off to sleep now. Had planned to sleep by 1a.m., but ended up having […]

I’m flying back to Singapore this Friday, Nov 18th. I don’t know whether I’ll make it back in time, but I hope I’ll get to see my 爷爷 again. I don’t quite know what I’m feeling either. Ah well.

This is a blog hat-trick today. But I just had to post something about my swimming session. It was a jungle out there. Limbs flailing, an ‘uncle’ attempting what seemed to be like a back-stroke butterfly, a swimmer in my lane who kicks/scratches/hits me everytime we pass each other, a guy in a diving suit […]

This photo was taken in September 2001 at the laundry room of 222 Elm St. Why did we bring a camera to the laundry room? I don’t remember…must have been one of those crazy days. I wanted to put another pic (with John looking positively psycho abt doing laundry) up as well, but I’m afraid […]

Peanut butter & dried prune sandwich. :)

Being a snob is not something that sits well with me…not when I’m the supposed snob. But more and more I’m realizing recently that I can be, well, very finicky about some very trivial things.

There’s really something to be said for delayed gratfication. As some of my blog readers already know, I’ve been feverishly longing after the iPod Nano for quite a while now. First it was an article in Time magazine that I saw. I was impressed but unmoved. Then I saw the TV ad, and well… I […]

Sometimes I don’t know what gets into me… Maybe it’s some pent up or unused energy that sometimes wells up within me. At times, I get so much satisfaction from teasing people that I’m almost ashamed of myself. I had a meeting today with some of my fellow OISE philosophy students to discuss the planning […]

They laminated a giant bumble bee, They laminated a giant bumble bee, It’s so disgusting, can’t you see, They laminated a giant bumble bee. Sometimes I think I’ve got to be the ‘luckiest’ person on earth. What are the chances of a bee getting laminated into the back cover of an academic journal? And then […]

Have I had any romantic notions about autumn in my mind today (which, thankfully, I didn’t), it would most definitely have been blasted out of my being during the longest walk home I’ve had in my life. The wind, dear reader, was blowing at 68km/h with blasts of 89km/h. And the regular, mundane 15mins walk […]
