Wanting Wonka
Can you imagine waking up to the heavenly aroma of warm chocolate melting over the stove? That was the reality for Melissa and me this weekend… cos Wanting was trying out a chocolate truffle recipe in a magazine for a party she was going to. All that rich and amazing chocolate melting and then cooling, […]

One Heart to Another
My last post prompted another sister and friend to send a beautiful email. As usual, after responding, I found that my reply consisted of reflections that I would also like to share here. Enjoy! :) ************** Hi hi back! Thank you for sending me this email… I’m very touched that you’ve shared something so personal […]
Crossing Paths
I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been surprised at how much others share in the same kind of struggles as I. Sometimes I meet someone in whom I recognize myself at an earlier stage of my journey. Sometimes, I meet another who is ahead of me on the same journey. What I […]
Absence
Day 4 with Zibin’s internet connection being down. No Skype. No cute little instant messages on the PC. Just plain old-fashioned telephone romance. I miss his funky online presence! :P
Roommate Follies
When Serena was here, she made an observation to me that Ting & Mel really seemed to inject life into OPL, and of course she’s right. All that girlish banter…sometimes serious, often nonsensical… Heard today coming from the foyer and kitchen respectively of OPL1204, to the tune of Beethoven 5th’s distinctive motif: “Ann ann ann […]

Have I lost faith in myself?
Last Tuesday night, I unexpectedly poured out my heart along with many tears to Zibin. I say unexpected because I had not been feeling particularly down. But we started talking right before bed, I shared a sentiment, he asked a question, and before you know it, BAM. Niagara Falls right in his apartment in Ithaca. […]
