Just like that, another year has gone by… and the last week of 2005, it seems, has flown by the fastest. Just barely 7 days ago I returned to T.O. with three people dear to my heart (two who are dearest and the third who is becoming increasingly dear as I become better acquainted). John […]

Jet Lag & Gun Violence in T.O.
We made the mistake of sleeping too early last night (10pm?) and we were all awake at 4a.m. this morning. Had some food, drink…now John & Cathy are back asleep and I’m joining them in dreamland soon… Feeling quite disturbed by the fatal shooting on Yonge St on Boxing Day…a gun battle right in the […]
Back
Back in Toronto for a little over 24 hours now. I’m tired beyond belief, but decided to take this opportunity to make a blog entry (perhaps seeing how diligently HJ is blogging from SF and how even HM who hasn’t blogged for ages actually posted a blog ‘motivated’ me into this). The flight from Singapore […]
Christmas in Singapore…and Toronto!
It’s been a long week. My grandfather’s wake and funeral has come and gone. Such a trying event really brings out the best and worst in people. I’ve received plenty of food for thought just from the last week alone. Although it wasn’t exactly an easy time, something good came out of it. For the […]

It feels a little odd to follow a post about such a wonderful family event with a sad one. But such is life, I suppose… it shouldn’t be odd at all. My 爷爷 passed away in his sleep early this morning. It’s a little ironic that after a few close-calls when the entire family rushed […]

An Officer and A Gentleman
It was John’s commissioning parade this past Saturday, December 10, 2005. (For John’s own perspective of the event, see here.) I can’t begin to imagine how it must feel for him, but I know all of us there (my parents, Cathy, Zibin & me) were happy and proud of our newly commissioned officer. It was […]
Fever in Subzero T.O.
Just wanted to leave a note to those of my friends in the midst of exam fever in Toronto. All the best…good luck! Amidst all the last minute mugging, stressing, and not-sleeping, here’s a reminder to drink more water and SLEEP as much as you can. It’s been studied and proven that sleep is needed […]
New Phone (Again?!)
Yep. Totally unplanned, unexpected…But as of yesterday evening, I’ve got a new cell/mobile phone. A Samsung SGH-E730 It started simply enough, with me shopping with my mom for a new digital camera for John (my mom’s present to him for his commissioning + Christmas). And she’s been looking for a palm for herself for a […]
