Night

The night has so many faces. At times she is a friend, companiable and close as you walk in friendly silence. Other times she is a lover, the air slipping like silk sheets around you, tender. Tonight she was bitter, turning away when you tried to catch her glance and the coldness clutched your heart [...]

Second Honeymoon

In the Nazi world of post-teen grooming, I think I’ve developed a mild phobia of bare toenails. Of course, a mild phobia is not enough to overcome the inertia that accompanies each re-laquering of our calcified extremeties so I mostly hope that my friends are too myopic to notice my raggedy toes and their chipped [...]

Harry Harry quite contrary

When the morning proves to be lazier than I am (a feat!), I find it rather inexcusable NOT to blog.
Yesterday was my self-proclaimed devour-HP-in-one-sitting day- an exercise I know I am not alone in. And *sigh* I feel sooooo sad now. Harry Potter hangover I call it. A part of me can’t believe that [...]

Glee is…

Stuffing your face with oven-warm gingerbread treacle cake, dark smooth bitter chocolate and dragonbeard candy.
Oh and sipping a tall ice cold cappucino alfredo beneath the grecian sky (perched dangerously on the edge of a volcanic caldera) comes in a close second.
Oh yes we can dream.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and overburdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30
This is perhaps my [...]

Graduation aka Hogswarts Day

Everyone looks so happy here… makes me smile just looking at it. =)

Dempsey Road is NOT Tanglin Village

thank you very much.
I thoroughly agree with Aun’s mini rant about this so-called Tanglin Village place-
by the way, in my opinion, whoever came up with the name Tanglin Village should be smacked upside the head!
Seriously the gahmen is taking this urban village thingy far too literally. Spontaneity is rare enough as it is! Cultured spontaneity???? [...]

Let’s go fly a kite

Waking up at 8 on a weekday and then deciding, heck let’s go back to sleep and promptly doing so is a rare luxury which will become less rare for the next five months. Which I’m finding a little disconcerting to adjust to (not that I’m complaining or anything!).
So, a few random things. Firstly, [...]

1 x 10 = 10

Seriously why didn’t I just dig up the guts to do this earlier?
Because pressing salt into gaping ulcers is the more shiokified shiokness feeling in the world.
I feel like I’m burning the disgusting bacteria infested white sore, I can almost hear the bacteria screaming as they die (water sucked out of them by the hypertonic [...]
