Sorry, I cannot share anything about the insights from George Soros because I still cannot get past the dryness of chapter 1. As for the trashy novel I finished , nothing to share, because by it’s nature, it is trashy.
Yet today I stumbled upon a gem – Chuck Klosterman IV. His articles and writings are [...]

Justice to George Soros – Part 1
Posted in Uncategorized on September 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
We all heard of the name of George Soros. My mental picture of him was painted by hearsay from Dr Mahathir who regarded him as the ‘Devil’ that brought about the Asian Economic Crisis. Well, currently I am reading his (George Soros) book ‘The Age of Fallibility’ and came to realise the ignorance I embraced. [...]

Finally laid my hands on the book ‘Good to Great’ by Jim Collins.
Number 1 seller with over 2 millions copies sold. A good book indeed. The knowledge shared in the book is not new yet remains profound. I guessed the fact the knowledge is backed by years of scientific research and study make the sharing [...]
The sweetness of buttock rub

Butttock rub is an act of love.
My husband rides a bike. After a downpour, the seats will be wet. I remembered 3.5 years ago when we went on our first few dates, it was during the rainy season. Although the skies cleared after the rain and we could ride home, the seats were already wet. During [...]
Surviving in wilderness

Today, I have decided to put my thoughts down on an observation.
I think, Vin- my hubby can survive in wilderness. In Straits Times today, it featured people that survived without food and water for several days, fought against nature and get themselves rescued be it from the ocean, jungle or beneath a collapsed coal mine.
I [...]
Beautiful Scenery and my mother…

I was down for the past few days. Stomach flu. Amazingly, I survived 3 days with only a few mouthful of food and a little more water.
So, when you are weak and yet you do not want to keep sleeping, that will leave you with nothing much to do, except staring out of the [...]
Two is better than One… …

This is not a MCYS advertisement but trust me to say that ”Two is better than One”. Our dear Sumiko at Sunday Times talked about the goodness of being in a relationship. There is a phrase that she used: ”24 hours best friend”. When I read that article yesterday, I cannot help but turned around to my [...]
Made to stick

Last evening, I finally finished reading the book “Made to Stick”.
Certain explanations finally allowed me to understand a phenomena that we witnessed in our very own political scene. Do you ever wonder why despite the many carrots that the PAP govt dished out during GE, Potong Pasir and Hougang remain die-hard fans of Mr Chiam [...]

Awakenings

I watched Awakenings at HBO last night. Given that the film was first showed in 1990, I was 17 years late.
For those who yet to watch Awakenings, gotten this off Wikipedia:
Awakenings is a 1990 drama film based on Oliver Sacks‘ memoir, Awakenings. It tells the true story of a doctor (Oliver Sacks, fictionalized as Malcolm [...]
