A beautiful girl
Happy Xin
(Stockholm Summer'06)
There are some people in life that are simply God-sent.
I know in my heart Xin is one.
I know in my heart Xin is one.
As she turns a year older, my wish for her is that she will always keep the happy times we experienced together and may more happy times follow her and her life partner.
Our quiet conversation
(Baltic sea off Bornholm, Denmark)
For me, I will find it very difficult to forget the best of times.
May we have more of such together!
viva la luna
my luna
When you look up to the clear night sky and see countless stars and in a distance - a breathtaking view of the moon - clean and slim, what can you do but keep that image in your heart and reproduce it in private.
My luna pales and pales against the original but it reminds of that beautiful night where the stars looked down on me and the moon shone good and bright. I don't see the moon and stars every night, but they are there and very much alive, even in the day.
And even though you don't see me everyday, and even if you don't see me at all. I am here and very much alive and I can only hope that when you see me, it will half as as illuminating as that moonlit night.

Poetry in purple, pink and everything in between
In Singapore, you must visit this place
Because quietly beautiful flowers will meet you here
Sometimes they are just huge
Sometimes they are little
But if you like the huge ones, there are plenty
See what I mean?
They love to sun tan
So that from a mere bud
They can bloom and grow!
That is the reason you must visit
- this charming little place :)

Anniversary
It's coming to a year that I
stepped out of Level 23
into a brave new world.
Something then, told me I had to leave,
but where do I go?
I am now
somewhere
but am I - there?
Leaving was probably not easy
and it is harder when you have very great friends
to say goodbye to.
I count my blessings to still be in touch with
the ones closest to heart
- through this, through here.
In the past week, the very vibrant Ms. Sabun has left
and I just learnt the Prof Cai will soon too.
Leaving is probably hard.
But I just found out that -
staying to watch the leaving
isn't quite so easy either.

Latte from Loysel's Toy
There's a new kid on the cafe block - Loysel's Toy.
We found the place after getting lost in the rain (thanks to me) and fetching a cab to bring us there (thanks to Neighbour)

The ham sandwich was delightful!
Neighbour had a latte, very much like the one pictured.

You can try it too by visiting them at:
Nearest MRT station - Lavender
Wet wet weekend
We waited
And waited
And waited still
It rained
And rained
And rained still
Neighbour and I were expecting a really good match to catch, courtesy of my brother. But it got lost in the incessant rain. We did see the Slovakians practice during a brief rain respite and that was illuminating. Strong and clean strokes with consistency.
We shall play like that.
Someday.
Someday.

Stationery Wisdom
2011 inspiration from kikki.K
'Fear less, hope more
eat less, chew more,
whine less, breathe more,
talk less, say more,
hate less, love more,
and good things will be yours.'
- Swedish proverb -
Farewell gift for Ms. Sabun
This is going to be the farewell gift for Ms. Sabun.
It is modelled after the real playgrounds - complete with sand.
Remember to slide!
Wheeeeeee!

You
'Do you have doubts about life? Are you unsure if it is worth the trouble? Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person's face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground under the street, and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. They are as much foryou as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing. Stand up and face the east. Now praise the sky, praise the light within each person under the sky. It's okay to be unsure. But praise, praise, praise.'by Miranda July

Sprouting spring onions
Recently a batch of onions got damp and
started sprouting...shoots of spring onions!
DIY Spring Onions
At the last count, we lost 3 onions and got a lot more spring onions.
Life is thus - death of one brings life to another
Not a bad thing at all, really!

O Joy, tastes like Friday!
From Oh Joy!
There's something about Fridays that lifts me up quite completely!
Perhaps it's the happy closing to a work week
Or in anticipation of an absolutely thrilling weekend.
In other words,
It's like salted caramel ice cream on crispy almond wafers!
Let's have a stunning weekend :)
