This girl figured it might be a while before she actually posts this entry seeing how she’s always known she’d want to wait till the first trimester is over before letting the rest of the world know. In fact, as she writes this in the solitude of her bedroom and in the quietness of the [...]

So, there’s been alot of talk in the news about people who’s done some not so smart things.
There’s the whole Ris Low Miss Singapore World who was first criticized for her poor English, then it came to light she’s been charged with credit card fraud. The organizers of course, managed the whole thing badly and [...]

There’s been a slew of weddings in the last few months. We’ve made it for some, some we had to pass. Some we enjoyed, some were worse than my wisdom tooth extraction. Some had funny videos, some had the usual wedding montages that made this girl wonder if the wedding video editing firms have some [...]

This girl caught up with some friends visiting from The Other Land.
Aunty Am runs the orphanage that this girl has been working with since she’s 16; this was the place that changed her life, and the girl (then two, now 14) that changed this girl’s soul. She gave this girl updates on all the kids [...]

Once again, this girl finds herself in a blitz of work. She’s severely backlogged and she feels like she’s not got a handle on things. Far too many emails, far too many projects and far too many meetings.

Ok, This girl used to enjoy watching Jon & Kate Plus 8. They were a fumblingly honest family who allowed the world to watch them “figure things out.” Jon was a tad clueless and a bit of a pushover. Kate was a little overbearing though that girl could pre-plan. The kids were adorable. This girl’s [...]

Two years ago this day, this girl stood at ground zero. She watched protesters set against the backdrop of families and friends who came to remember loved ones they lost when the twin towers and the Pentagon was hit in the world’s most public and daring act or terrorism.

The last few weeks have been a debilitating onslaught of things, to-dos and obligations that have almost crippled this girl and her soul. Waves of fatigue that sees her crawling to bed in the middle of the afternoon- sometimes she literally barely makes it to the bed. Her schedule tears her apart- morning here, afternoon [...]
