Pad Thai
I’ve always been partial to Tom Yum Goong, that sour and spicy shrimp soup that expresses the feelings and thoughts of Thailand. I love soup it wasn’t a difficult choice. Then came Dr. Cal Lightman. His daughter Emily once said that Pad Thai is his favourite. At that time began my interest to…
Custard Pie
I’ve been at loss for words and ideas as of late. I’ve found a bit of free non-sleepy state time this past week , I’ve finished my New Year’s first post and is excited to post it. So why didn’t I post it? I was looking for inspiration! Really I was. So I…
This season
I’ve always believed that Christmas and New Year is synonymous to retrospection. To look back and reflect on the past year’s events is tradition to some and commencement to most. As for me it is not something I’ve actively done ever since I realized Santa isn’t real and that was ages ago. what…

Even before the influx of Korean pop culture all over the world I’ve already started to maintain a love/hate relationship with the country’s offering.

Pump Up Your Kicks
I miss listening to the radio. I am a part of the generation who grew up listening to cassette tapes, on-air music countdowns and pages of song lyrics with guitar chords on them. The best part back then was calling the radio station, make a request and when the DJ preludes a few…
I Am Song
I Am Song I am cloaked in music, written in white pages Your fingers dancing to the words and rhythm A melody that fills the air that We both breath Lyrics that fills a space in my head Ah, the touch of your soul and whispers of your heart All at once It’s…
Serendipity and I
Yesterday, as I told Jenny of www.jennysseredipity.com, I wasn’t in my best. I’m choosing not to delve into the details. It was just something that hurt, really hurt. I’m not a materialistic person, I’m rather practical. I’m also the type who’d find regret unnecessary once the path I choose doesn’t go my way….
