I remember vividly the first time I saw the words “Massive Jam” lit up on the highway signboard. I was driving on the northbound CTE (in Singapore), on a rainy evening, quite a number of years ago. One tree fell onto the highway that forced all the vehicles to exit at Ang Mo Kio. Imagine four [...]

Out of the blue, I wanted to shop for a TV. We drove to Katong Mall, paid Mega Discount Store a visit. We have always wanted to try out the “Hong Kong Tea House” restaurant next to the mall. The food is indeed ‘pretty’ authentic, as what we’ve been told. But my plate of cheese baked spaghetti [...]

My pair of spanking new running shoes are in tip top condition, the owner is not. Yesterday I jogged out of my lobby feeling light and especially happy that my shoes fit so well. I felt like gliding in air thinking that those gels underneath my feet must have been working real hard. Taking my [...]

Note: The picture on the left was drawn by me.) In my house that seemed a bit dark and rundown, I have a large family gathering. [...]
