I find hospitals rather scary. I know this is ironic, since Dad is a doctor, but while I have no qualms about seeing doctors (except for secretly believing that most of them are not as competent and thorough as my...
I found myself crying after visiting my grandma in the hospital last night. It took me by surprise. After all, she's not dying or anything; her condition is stable and she's due to be discharged in two days' time. Good...
Got a text message yesterday from BP saying he and Ms Bunny were concerned about me. I don't blog for days, and people start to wonder whether I'm okay. If I were anyone else, my friends would simply assume I'd...

Tonight, while doing some spring-cleaning, I found the list I made in 1998 when I was 20: the list of attributes I would like my future husband to have. It's a very detailed list -- 31 points long -- and...
"I sort of agree with Julian's comment but I think my reasoning is different from his," Sherman said. "What's your reasoning?" I wanted to know. "For me, the organic church is to be found WITHIN the institutional church even if...
A week before the wedding, my bro and his dear fiancée ask me to sing a song at their wedding. Now, there is nothing wrong with this. I am perfectly happy to sing a song. Well, maybe not all THAT...
