The things with owning your own company is that the buck stops at your feet. You can’t pass it on to anyone else, neither can you pretend its not there.

The girl woke this morning to the jarring of her cell phone going off far too early (or so it seemed to her anyway) to The Father calling to notify her that Michael Jackson had died. That woke her up and she quickly went to her trusty internet google news to read more and call [...]

For what seemed like two years, Zwieback battled Anorexia Nervosa, a debilitating eating disorder that saw her shrink from her oh-so-gorgeous frame to a skeletal whisper of her former healthy self. She entered treatement with Golden Skull leading the new defense-offense with the nebulous many-headed monster.
Fast forward- through countless sleepless nights, melt downs and heartaches… [...]

The Boy and The Mother love Tiger Woods. Both- along with many other golfers in the world, surely- will willingly stay up way into the night or wake up at odd times in the morning to watch the masterclass golfer play in a final round.

Smartest Friend is back from the States on summber break and while she’s very much the same, she’s brought a little more Americana back with her; namely her love affair with American football and NBA.

When she realised that the Singapore Botanic Gardens was hosting a “Dr. Jane Goodall & Friends” event this girl pulled all the strings she had to score herself a pass (plus one) to it since RSVPs were beyond full. The CEO of Clarins International was also on the panel and she called in a big [...]

This girl came across an article a while back that talks about how how a couple’s sleeping position together reflects their relationship. She could never find the actual article again, but she’s pieced together what she could find.

This girl does her best to start and end her day in prayer. Often, she finds herself repeating herself because invariably she falls asleep while praying (perils of doing pillow praying). She figures God will understand her through her gibberish-sounding prayer since God knows even before one asks (…For your Father knows what you need [...]
