God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. And ME to share all the pain, laughter, tears, sorrow,happiness, sun and rain with you! Let us endure all the 暴风雨 and 彩虹 together!

Oh..... I like his image and character in the show... although sometimes I feel like strangling him for not showing his affection because of his ego....

But blickering sometimes does help to improve relationships doesn't it? =)
More information about Hyun Bin can be found here.

Share a Meal with U @ Thong Teck Home for Senior Citizens

Just helping to get volunteers......

The main aim of the project is to create and raise public awareness of acts of kindness through food sharing session with the elderly. This sharing session is a collaboration between Singapore Kindness Movement and Kampong Ubi CCMC.

Some homes offer vegetarian meals for their residents only due to MOH rules and regulations but in fact, not all residents are vegetarian and they do like to have non-vegetarian food at times. Thus, at the first Home of this project, we will be sharing with Thong Teck Homes for Senior Citizens where 180 in-house residents and 20 day-care patients will get to enjoy a special Dinner (catering of food is arranged by the Home).

Details as follows:
Date : Saturday, 23rd September 2006
Time : 2 to 7pm
Venue : Thong Teck Homes for Senior Citizens located at 91 Geylang East Ave 2, Singapore 389759 (within walking distance from Aljunied MRT station, near to the National Library)


Interested parties, pls leave me a message or get back to the organizer (Chan Ling Chee) at lsiechan@hotmail.com.

Her: "....... "
Her: "maybe I should start eating oranges...."

Thirteen disabled young artists visit Singapore Biennale to seek inspiration

In yesterday's news, thirteen disabled young artists visit Singapore Biennale to seek inspiration....

Being autistic, deaf, wheelchair-bound or handicapped is not going to stop these young artists from creating works of beauty.

They are in Singapore for three days to visit the various sites of the Singapore Biennale to get ideas for their own creations.

Selected works of these artists will be auctioned off at the Credit Suisse Gala Dinner, proceeds will then go to Very Special Arts Singapore so that other disabled artists will have access to funds to pursue their works.

Learning to let go

Sharing what we have is a beautiful way of relating to others.

Our friendship are much enhanced by the quality of generosity.

Even more significantly, the cultivation of non-greed becomes a strong force for liberation.

What keeps us bound is desire and grasping in our minds.

As we practice giving, we learn to let go.

- Joseph Goldstein

Man and boat

If a man is crossing a river
And an empty boat collides with his own skiff
Even though he be a bad-tempered man
He will not become very angry

But if he sees a man in a boat,
He will shout at him to steer clear
If his shout is not hear,
He will shout again
And yet again, and begin cursing
And all because there is somebody in the boat

Yet if the boat was empty,
He would not be shouting
And would not be angry

If you can empty your own boat
Crossing the river of the world,
No one will oppose you
No one will seek to harm you

A Nation in Concert: Many People, Once Voice

Today, I went to watch a play/show (drama, song and dance) @ Esplanade Concert Hall.....


I think it is really worth for money.... it is very nice... very entertaining too... but most importantly.... very inspiring....

"If you don't help people when you can, you cannot expect people to help you when you need them."

It is all about giving.... volunteerism.... all the casts are all volunteers.... all coming together with the same objectives - Education, Empowerment and Enrichment.

I think they have met their objectives, for :
  1. It has educated the public to see the minority as people with talents and ablities rather than their disablities.
  2. It has empowered the minority to allow them to showcase their talents... to allow them to contribute to the society as well.... and to empower them to educate the public....
  3. For me personally, it has enriched my life.... and as a volunteer myself, it has inspired me to continue to serve the community....

I really enjoyed the show very much.... and it is my 1st show in the Esplanade Concert Hall!!!!

AND I am very proud of myself and my classmates that we have decided to watch this show...
