You might have noticed that I've changed the look of the site. Early on in the day, I had to decide between changing to to a Drupal installation or upgrading my old WordPress installation. I decided on the former, but after some unsuccessful attempts at exporting the data, decided to settle on the latest WordPress... Continue Reading →
Living with Her
"Living together is not easy," he told me, while he nibbled away at the chicken in front of him. Zixuan and I were at a KFC outlet at Hougang Point, with he having his post-IPPT dinner, with me as accompaniment. We were, as usual, discussing girlfriends. "I once had a friend," he continued, "who lived... Continue Reading →
The Second Guess
There are days where I second-guess this romance. And ask, "is this true love, or just my imagination?" Then thinking about my thinking I stop mid-thought, and Berate myself for this blasphemous contemplation. But do not fault me for thinking twice about us. Because when it comes to you, believe me, I am serious. More... Continue Reading →
Love at a Hundredth Sight
I believed that there was someone "out there" who was "meant for me", someone divined by the stars to be by my side through this life. I had very strong preconceived notions on what this person would be like, and I was certain that there would be no one else but this person with whom... Continue Reading →

"Do you think things have been going too smoothly?" I asked her. "Heh, it's the honeymoon period, these first three months." I just lay there, thinking. I didn't like the way we had progressed. I felt that we needed to quarrel over something. I don't know why, but when things go as frictionless as it... Continue Reading →
Looking Toward the Future
I have neglected this website for quite a while now. The reasons, I am sure, are probably many. Probably, I say, because I, myself, honestly find it hard to pin-point an exact reason why, and when I do, I find it isn't very accurate or true at all. Self-Censorship? But allow me to admit that...

On Writing
It's been ages since I have last written here. Going through the history of this site, I think that there's a sort of pattern that I can follow. During the more active times of my life, I tend to write quite a bit less, and during the times of my life where I have a... Continue Reading →
A New Beginning
It took a while. But here we are, at the dawn of a new beginning!
Back in Singapore!
I have just completed a year of academia in Perth, and am now back in Singapore. Thank goodness for the relatively hot weather in Perth these past few weeks, and the relatively cool, rainy weather we have in Singapore. I recall my last trip back to Singapore in June (Perth's winter) was filled with buckets... Continue Reading →
