I think in a racially diverse country like Singapore, having reality programs is a dangerous business.
Unlike in America where there’s a large population and the votes are presumably more skewed towards musical preferences rather than “colour or race” per se, however the latter comes across more evidently here in tiny Singapore.
Just by looking at [...]

Honeybee has been encouraging me to lead a healthier lifestyle for the longest time. For someone such as I who hates exercising and most of all perspiring, his well-meaning advice grated on my ears. And of course I resisted…
Imagine his surprise on Saturday evening when the rolly polly (me!) suggested that we should head to [...]

I have been dreading my appointments at KK and it’s not just because of the money I spend each time. It’s those irritating kids I see that irks me.

His words jolt me. Words that struck to my innermost core… He saw through me like I’ve seen through him.
He’s sorry he lost me. I’m sorry I trapped myself in an iron cast.
