I cannot close my eyes. They refuse to fall asleep.For if I close my eyes and drift into a reverie of lost time, will they still open for tomorrow's beckoning?I stretched my tired body, but where is the usual upward curl of my lips?It was here when I sunk into a pleasant state of inebriation.Hand me my Crema de Damiana s'il vous plait.

Now, the houses have been transformed into offices and private residential estate. Unique are the houses of Peranakans; the architecture is distinctive of Neo-Classical European structure. Not just any other 4-storey building. …

"This isn't an office. It's hell with fluorescent lighting.""I love deadlines. I especially like this sound they make as they go whooshing by.""Hard work never kills anyone, who's supervising.""If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you've tried."Please deposit all work in tray,.

I grudgingly admitted to SQ (aka The Ex-Editor of a Trashy Magazine. Shall refer him as that in the future.) that I practically have no friends on weekends.

Odd is the order of food …

It's typically me to walk all over the island just to find that one thing to satisfy my hungry taste buds. And I did just that, yesterday and today.The Best Friend was supposed to meet me yesterday and thereafter I'll bring her for some fine authentic Hakka cuisine near my office in Chinatown. Oh well, work prevailed so I was on my own. And when my tummy's ready for a pig …
