I am convinced that there are more unhappy families than there are happy ones. Divorce and single parent statistics are only the tip of the iceberg. There has to be many more families as good as broken that fly beneath the radar because they are from all appearances ‘happy’. I know (sadly) too many people […]

MacBook Air *be still my heart*
Apple has done it again – reduce me to a momentarily quivering pool of unadulterated techno-lust. A year ago when I purchased my MacBook, I felt that it was only a matter of time before Apple designs a truly ultra-portable notebook computer that not only is THIN but also LIGHT. Is MacBook Air the answer? […]
Casa Jean
*UPDATED BELOW* [See #5: Talking fast is a sign of RESPECT] There’s a very old friend of mine whose name hasn’t been appearing on my blog because we haven’t been in touch much since I started blogging. Her name is Jean. Jean is like a stick of dynamite. Strong, passionate, bright, bursting with creativity and […]
Mom's a Mac user now!
Hee hee hee… that’s right! My mom needed a new computer and asked me to accompany her to shop for one. What else would you expect? We went home with an iMac (installed with Leopard OS and iLife ’08 which rock the most!) ha ha ha… It wasn’t a frivolous buy. With my mom’s computer […]
Can you see the raindrops?
Raindrops falling outside my study window I get an adrenaline rush when there’s a bona fide tropical thunderstorm. The view from my window is a blur. I can hear the pitter-patter of raindrops hitting my window. I can feel the tremor when the thunder rolls. Power. Might. Grandeur. It’s like Mother Nature decided to give […]
You can't stop the beat… 'cos it's Hairspray!
I was never inspired to watch Hairspray (neither the musical nor the film). However, the movie was playing in the video rental store a couple of weekends ago when Zibin and I went to look for something to watch. It looked and sounded interesting enough that we decided to give it a go. After watching […]
At TCC Novena with Phei Yee
Phei Yee trying to figure out what I’m doing… *ha ha*; TCC through the ‘looking glass’ Relaxing peppermint, chamomile & lavendar ‘tea’; Our delish, pretty but pricey tri-layered (dark, milk and white) chocolate mousse squares Phei Yee was in town for 2 days. We arranged to meet for dinner and dessert. We had a great […]
Ann + Food = *DUH*
Zibin and I have both been sick for most part of the past week. He caught something from a virus-laden kid next to him in the cinema last Sunday and passed it to me. *sniff* Anyway, we’re feeling much better and sick of bland food and soups, so for breakfast today we ventured to a […]
Radical & Literal – A post by Zibin
Yes, I’m down with the flu bug on the second day of the New Year (i.e. the first day back to work in the New Year). Perhaps this is God’s way of asking me to slow down, or forcing me to slow down. But I do have to admit that ever since I came back […]
Your will be done
A Franciscan tau cross Zibin and I bought in Assisi, Italy back in 2000 The Straits Times Interactive has a poll that asks readers how optimistic they are about 2008. I found myself asking, what do I hope for in the new year? Honestly, I don’t know. It’s easy to wish for things – good […]
