Update 2009.05.06: The latest progress report from VAST. Update 2009.03.30: With word from a friend that another $600 or so will reach us soon, I deem it safe enough to announce that we’ve reached our target. Big thanks to all our friends and family who have come forward and donated so very generously. An update […]

It was an odd feeling. The same faces, the same office, the same streets. Having my life, as it was some two months ago, miraculously “restored” as if nothing has changed. As if someone has pressed the fast-forward button, and here I am again. And just as quickly, the days have flown by. I leave […]

I didn’t think it was going to happen, but I’m back in Bhutan. Thanks in a big part to some serious running around by Kuenga. A friend is tagging along this time (she arrives tomorrow morning) and it will be fun to see how this tropical girl is going to cope with the Bhutanese winter. […]

It was a whirlwind week leading to my departure. So much packing to be done, so many people to meet and so many thoughts to gather. There are too many to list to whom I owe the gratitude and honour of knowing, but to each and everyone of you… Thank You. You have made my […]

I’ve been a little quiet on the blog front for the last month or so, mainly because I’ve been pouring most of my waking hours on a system that is scheduled to see the light of day next month. It’s sort of a “showcase/teaching” piece, which is why I’ve been cramming tons of technology bits […]

It’s always a mixed bag of feelings when I think about this little island country in which I was born and raised. We have come so far, but there’s still so much to do. Happy Birthday Singapore. May you always remain a beautiful home to the people who have toiled for your success. Update: In […]

Taking advantage of a short respite from the summer rains, I took a short photowalk in the neighbourhood over the weekend. Carried my much neglected 50mm out, which isn’t the best lens for flower macros, but its sharpness provided for much cropping room. Tiny set of photos here. To make a prairie it takes a […]
