Last Saturday I went to the Singapore Science Centre to see the PIXAR exhibition. The price of the ticket also includes admission to the Science Centre itself, and it’s been 10 years since I went there. There’s a lot of cool stuff inside that will probably interest all types of learners, because not only are [...]

Are you ready for battlefield?
Today met up with a student and spoke to him. He didnt do quite well for his mid year. I asked him what he has been doing during the sch holidays. He told me his father ask him to study and practise more questions. Knowing him, I told him.. he doesnt even understand and grasp [...]
Stubborn or Really lost?
Recently, I do not know by luck or by chance or because it was meant to be that way, I was exposed to people who I am unsure if they are stubborn or really lost in their pursuit of what they truly want in life. When I asked students what they really want? Normally those [...]

The universe is like a trampoline…
… what you put in will be returned to you. Last weekend, just on a whim, I decided that I really should schedule some time to practise playing guitar every day, otherwise I am never ever going to get better. So I put it on my Google Calendar. For one hour every day after I [...]
Q & A
I beg you… to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given you now, because you would not be able to live them. And [...]
Ip Man 2
Went to watch Ip Man 2 few days ago. It was a really nice movie though it glorified western boxing in a way (in my opinion) The most touching part is the last part where Ip Man entered the match against western boxing. Of coz the part where he won the match is as expected [...]
“I don’t know…”
Recently a number of students got back their results, there is one that who didn’t do as well as she expected, I asked her why & she replied “I don’t know”… That night I was thinking about how to help these students & what are their challenges… then I started to think about those students [...]

a quiet night with myself
Is all these efforts going to pay dividend at the end of the day? I am not sure seriously… yet I know I need to continue to have faith and keep doing till I get the results. There is no insanity in me. Just the part on letting go… I am seriously learning… Its really [...]
A lesson from the Universe
Just had a 3D2N “holiday” at the hospital. This is the first time in my life! It is indeed a energy draining environment. I went in in good spirti but as I was dressed in the patient robe lying on the bed, I was socialised into a petient role. Whats with regular temperature and bp [...]

Dear Mum
Dear Mum, I look at the life I have today, and the only thing I can say is THANK YOU! Coming up in a home where caring was served as a starter, love as a main course, and for dessert- appreciation, I think its safe to say, and I know that I speak for [...]
Your gravestone
I was travelling home when this occurred to me right out of the blue. What do you want written on your gravestone? Besides your name and relevant dates, that is. There’s only so much space and you can only write a few words. How do you want to be remembered to the world? What pearls [...]
What do you want?
“She sat down one day and wrote two versions of her obituary, the one that she wanted, a life of adventure, and the one that she was actually heading for – which was a nice, normal, pleasant, safe life, but it was not one where she wanted to be by the end of her life. [...]
Happiness… SPREADS!
Oh.. Oh.. I realise happiness spreads! Sometimes when I post positive & happy things or even just a picture, I realise when people talk to me they too are influenced by my happiness. The tone of conversation is lighter too! Recently the office printer broke down. In our industry, we rely heavily on the copier. [...]

Asking how opens your mind.
I read rich dad poor dad recently which i think many of you would have read. What strikes me the most was the way the 2 dads reacted towards the same situation. Both were looking at the same car. Poor dad was saying I cannot afford this car. While rich dad said HOW can I [...]
