So When?

The Lunar New Year is just around the corner. So…. who’s looking forward to the big red Gong Xi Fa Cai event? I’m feeling surprisingly blase about it this year. The house is all kitted out with red and gold decorations, fresh spring blossoms – and enough red lanterns to rival the red light district, but I’m » Read More

Adios 2011. Hola 2012

2011. Wow, what a year it has been. 8 months of anticipation. 8 months of worry. 8 months of planning. 8 months of hoping. And the remaining 4 months? A heady combination of joy, frustration, smugness, desperation, learning and horniness. And that’s just the work. Okay, it’s not the work. Horniness has no place at work, » Read More

“Precious Moments”

Precious Moments After 3 kids and with the eldest already 7, I’m finally blogging my life as dad! Or rather, finally have the time to blog about fatherhood, is this late or what?  Anyway, better late than never!  And the first thing I thought I’d write about would be on “ Precious Moments” because that was » Read More

The Journey To Parenthood

The little Coco bean turned one month old earlier this week on 22 September. The passing of the first month marks many milestones for both parents and baby. For us, I’m happy to report that, under tutelage from my mum who took leave for a month to help us, we seem to have mastered the basics of » Read More

The Studio Loft touches the Force

“So, will you be doing any bump shots?” “No, but I know you will. You and Yi Lin are so into photography I’m not surprised!” I was chatting with my friend Celine a couple of months back, a hot babe who still looks hot despite being 7 months pregnant (she’s due somewhere around National Day). “Yeah.” I replied. » Read More

Why Does It Have to Be So Hard?

No, I’m not talking about one of the common and niggling (back)side-effects of pregnancy, although that can be a literal pain in the ass. Things have gone a little potty over the past week though. It does seem that the breezy bliss of the second trimester is coming to an end, as the aches and » Read More

Press F(amily)9 for Help

Don’t worry, this isn’t a call for help (at least not just yet!) The baby’s growing fine (average size, average growth rate, which is good – let’s keep things that way. I don’t need to make “squeezing a 99th percentile baby out” a personal accomplishment) and these happy parents-to-be are doing well too. People are spot » Read More

Lucky

I’ve been a bag of emotions recently. Mostly, it’s blogs that set me off, forcing me to blink back tears when I read them at home or in the office (ssssshh… come one, a little surfing wouldn’t hurt productivity at work.) No, it’s not the baby blogs that give me a bad case of wet eyes and » Read More

Things That Make Me Sick

I had a terribly hard time keeping my breakfast down this morning. No, it wasn’t because of first trimester nausea. Rather it was due to some nauseating comments on Facebook in response to a link that I posted. Now, simply fuming internally throughout the entire MRT journey and walk to the office wouldn’t do anybody any » Read More

Upping the Karma

“Do you ever dream of your own funeral?” If you are a Gleek that eagerly catches every episode the moment it is available, then you would probably recognise this line. Rachel was giving Kurt advice on which solo to perform for his audition in his new glee club. Rachel then goes on to say that she does, » Read More
