I happened to take a glance at the scattered books at my table this morning (Oh yeah, I read more than one book at one time) and couldn’t help be surprised at the list (some of them waiting to be read) The Bhagavadgita by Gandhi Understanding Buddhism by Malcolm David Eckel The Holy Science by [...]
The city is still in CNY mood. Last weekend, we were at the annual Chingay Parade. Next weekend is going to be a mini chingay at our area. There’s no end to celebrations and holiday season in a multi-ethnic community like Singapore
Last night we came back home to face some great adventure. You can call it a nightmare, it’s purely a matter of choice. Actually, I feel eligible to write a book now, about ‘what to do when your house is in flood’. Yes, that’s what we did last night. Oh wait, but a flood in [...]
I had a tummy bug last week when hubby was working late. Incidently I hadn’t taken Pappu out for the whole day, so he had started behaving differently when my bug was at it’s peak. Well, it’s not fun when you are sitting in the toilet bowl and trying to catch your vomit in a [...]
I started the month well. I had a list of painting goals ready on Jan 1 just the way I usually have my business ones. Not to mention the blog, I had decided to do NaBloPoMo. All was well until the first couple of days I had a sudden tummy bug that stopped me from [...]

Me: I’m right here. Pappu: papa? Me: he is here too. Pappu: akka? Me: which akka are you talking about? Pappu: [...]
What do people say when they reappear after 2 months of sudden absence? Hmm, well, the reason for my absence is…. Anyway, I don’t have any particular reason because the concept of ‘not having enough time’ doesn’t even exist. I just didn’t want to write even though I had quite a lot to write. My [...]
It’s been long since I wrote anything blog worthy. I could go on and convince everyone that I had been busy doing things, taking care of toddler or consumed in painting. But that’s not the truth. I didn’t write because… just because! No, I was not suffering from a blogger’s block. Could someone be having a [...]
