The Heart Is Easily Broken

Chanced upon this on Cai Kang Yong's blog and couldn't get it off my head since yesterday. How terribly true. Talk about a picture speaking a thousand words. All couples should have a copy of this picture to constantly remind them of the fragility of love.


Blog Therapy

Blogs can be entertaining - really! For me, blogging and reading someone else's blog could even be therapeutic. I really enjoy Mr Brown and never fail to check it out every other day for updates and listen to his podcasts. As I did so yesterday, I chanced upon his coverage of XiaXue's Top Seven Most Disgusting Bloggers. And there he was again - Steven Lim. OMG! He really is something. You need to be "something" to do that to yourself and have an ego so huge. But it was really entertaining watching his home-made videos - you have to check them out for comic relief. I assure you will not be disappointed.

As I "kaypoh(ed)" other people's blogs, I chanced upon Cruz Teng, popular 933FM DJ. I must say I do enjoy his morning programme - from home to work, he and Weibin never fails to make me laugh (albeit alone) in the car :-). From his blog links, I found the blog of one of my favourite Taiwan comperes - Cai Kang Yong. Now for those of you intending to improve your Mandarin, this is the blog to check out. Kang Yong is witty, intelligent and very very good at what he does. The writing is immaculate and some even inspirational.

Blogs widen your world.
You realise there are people less fortunate than you.
You realise there are people who work so hard to overcome obstacles in their lives (especially illnesses).
You realise there are people who live life to the fullest, despite obstacles and troubles.
You realise there are couples who are truly in love AND married.
You realise there are people who are desperate for attention.
You realise you are not alone...

People laugh at bloggers and blogs. Well, you just don't know what you're missing. Try it some day. You'll see...

Gideon Was Once FAT!

Was supposed to search for pictures of the Golden Gals' BKK trip in 2004 and found a CD of Gideon's pictures instead! Gosh was he FAT then... so cute he was (still is of course) and CHUBBY too. You know, like they say, enjoy every moment and these are definitely some of those unforgettable moments :-)

And this is one of my all time favourite pictures of our baby...
