Since primary school, I’ve been prone to leg injuries, especially at my ankles. Pain in the knees (especially after running), easily tired feet (usually at the heels or near my shin), and lower back fatigue when I wear heels. From when I was in primary school, doctors hadn’t been able to tell us much else […]

My Mega-Watt Smile Hubby
Zibin had his braces removed today, and he couldn’t be happier. He didn’t need much encouragement to flash his tidy pearlies at me :P But tonight, he’s had to endure a couple of things. Not being able to wear some of his favourite t-shirts for one, because I’m saving all our UofT stuff to be […]
A Canadian @ NDP Family Day
On Saturday, I became one of the first members of public to view this year’s National Day Parade. It wasn’t even a NDP Preview, but the first full-scale dress rehearsal. It was the NDP Family Day, so coined because the audience was made up of family and friends of people participating in the parade. John […]
A Little "Pick-Me-Up" from T.O.
It’s official now. Wanting will be staying with me for another year! I’m so glad it worked out this way. *********** Last week I made a long-distance call to Wanting to talk about apartment matters. We ended up talking for I think what was at least 30mins. It was good to talk to her again. […]
Disarming the Cheshire Cat *sigh*

Earlier this morning, I was in a rather irritable mood. I could feel myself itching to pick a fight with […]
Mon Amie Zhen
About a week after I met Enling for the first time back in 1991, Weizhen came into my life. I was supposed to meet Enling at the level 4 landing during recess. I was there first, and when I saw her coming towards me, she was dragging (yes, physically dragging by the hand) a very […]

The Umbilical Cord
Isn’t life so very interesting? Here I am at 27 years of age, learning to let go of my mom. Learning to step out of my mother’s awesome shadow and to lead my own life. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that both of us are learning to let each other go. And […]

Together, Yet Alone
A friend asked me on the phone yesterday, “How honest should we be with people?” In the past, my answer may have probably stopped at “it depends on who you’re talking to”. But this time, his question touched on a deeper theme that I’ve been learning a great deal about recently. And the theme is […]
