Arigato, Sherry!
Snow covered Baldwin St, courtesy of Sherry Of all the snowy photos I’ve seen of Toronto this week, this one’s my favourite because of sentimental reasons. It contains places that have become so much a part of my life in Toronto. Kowloon, Sambuca Grill, Konichiwa, Fujiyama, Gateway of India… the little organic store, Yung Sing […]
Wistful for snow
Toronto had its most major snowstorm since 1999 this past weekend. I couldn’t resist looking for some images… I still remember the snowstorm of 1999. Three memories stand out. 1. Walking across the parking lot from my residence to school in Scarborough through a blinding blizzard 2. Going into Chinatown Centre downtown with Sandy when […]
A café with heart
Yesterday, Ivy & I met up to have some heart-to-heart and mind-to-mind discussion about the ideas, reflections, questions and inspirations that we’ve come across in our studies. (Ivy is currently studying for her masters degree at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy.) It was a stimulating afternoon as we were mutually enriched by […]

Café Galilee
Woodlands Regional Library Finally, one of my wishes fulfilled. I’ve found a nesting place for reading, thinking and writing. Quiet, non-crowded, reasonably priced drinks and food, clean and bright, and with clean and nearby washrooms. Better yet, most of the people hanging out at this café are also buried in reading or writing. Talk about […]

More Disney-Leibovitz Magic
Rachel Weisz as Snow White Roger Federer as King Arthur Julie Andrews as the Blue Fairy & Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine) as apprentice fairy Disney does make some inspired choices! 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 […]
Accent Rouge
A serendipitous shot along Orchard Road I haven’t felt much inspiration food-wise or photography-wise since returning to Singapore. Maybe it’s a state of mind? In any case, Wanting’s query about how Singapore looks like now gave me some motivation to bring my camera out again. This would have been a very boring shot if not […]
Budding Talent
I wish I could say I took this photo, but I didn’t. *grin* This is a photo that Sherry took of HER OWN EYE. Amazing isn’t it? I was very impressed when I saw this photo. There’s a quality about it that just draws me in… something about this photo that is emotionally evocative. Sherry’s […]
