It is a special day today. It is our friend and the author of this blog’s birthday. A milestone shared with all his other Bros of SXI 78. It is (drumroll)………………………… Beng Beng’s Birthday to …

Have you thought of visiting Australia? My friend took 3 weeks off. We spent 9 to 10 days traveling down the Eastern Coast from Gold Coast (4n/5d), stopping overnight at Port Macquarie for one night, Sydney for 2 nights 3 days and then coming back to Melbourne. The rest of their holidays was spending Christmas ...

A friend JL once told me that when one is middle-aged and looks back at what might have been, one must be crazy. In this short clip, this man is magically transported to a different dimension where he is sleeping next to his wife who is a total stranger to him. Subtle body language is ...

I read the above by Jerry on facebook and realized how true it is. Recently I found myself in unusual circumstances. Friends have been so kind to me doing things I never expected them to do. It is touching. Friendship is such that we do not earn it and yet it is freely given. Relatives ...

Pic borrowed from net. Source unknown. Well, today has been like many other weekends. Well, it wasn’t. Not exactly like any other weekend.

Benghui is pleased as punch I have finally given him the go-ahead to take part in the inter-school wushu competition which will be held next weekend. He has had no time to prepare at all so I guess it will be participating for participation’ s sake. As long as he is happy. This is My Heart ...
