• Something that I want to remember about my Grandpa.

    Today, in the midst of being a buzzing bee at work. I saw an email popped in titled “Chinese New Year” by my uncle. The family will be popping in from different parts of the world to celebrate this occasion as usual, so I wondered what the email is about. As I glanced through the details… I held my breath and read the following message. Some parts were truncated (likely because it was coded in chinese), but here’s what I could read. I really like you to tell me to go home date. Because I can not eat something too salty. So no need to bring too much smoked salmon…

  • catching his first smile of the day..

    I find it a joy to wake up in the morning, lay in bed and observe jerry till he rouses from his sleep.. and usually the moment our eyes meet…   he smiles.   such precious moments.   this morning, he climbed out of my bed himself, pulled out the water bottle from my bag, sat down and starting patting it like a drum, entertaining himself.   moments later, he went back to my bag and fished out something else. my fruitella bar of sweets. my cheeky little fellow.. and no, you ain’t eating one of those.   am not feeling very well these couple of days, and as a…

  • Miss the good old times.

    Had quite a lot to drink today, but surprisingly super sober and had enjoyed myself very much in months. Had a meet up with steve and Jen, which was long overdue and we sat at a quiet bistro @ changi with good food, great companion, beers and waves splashing softly in a distant and planes flying over us every 10-15 mins. It was a lovely place, and an even lovelier experience. We chatted about the good old memories in ph, the trips that we used to take, those retreats and the funny moments. And how we used to do things against the law, how we squeezed in food and shopping…

  • the memories of my maiden school..

    came across this via peanut_toes… totally revived my fading memories that I had of my school. the demolished school that’s no longer in existence today. i remembered that study area, the st john room, the octagon garden in the middle of the classrooms, the technical block and the science labs! the science labs where i usually hide under the table to snack away. the art room.. the classrooms.. gawd. am so glad someone actually made of video of this. judging from the dates, they are one year my junior! 🙂 i missed the schooling days. 13 years after graduation, i can still sing the school song without missing any lyrics.…
