I shared the same birthday date as Mr LKY. To me, its like a special connection to him. It's something to be proud of; whenever someone asks when is my bdae, to which I will say 16 Sep, same as LKY!

I dont know what will be life without him governing this little red dot on the world map. As the time that I was born, Singapore was already peaceful with abundant opportunities, a great place to call home. Perhaps our grandparents or parents will appreciate much more as they had personally went through the hard times. His great achievements were merely history subject which was not exactly my best subject in school. Perhaps we are too fortunate...

However, since news of his critical condition released, the social media was flooded with his news. Suddenly, I seemed to know him better. But it's his love story that really touched me. A colleague said, death of your spouse is the most detrimental event that can ever happen to a person. Its with my own eyes that I saw a great man, whom I always wonder, why so old yet had cheeks more rosy than me,  started to show sign of aging. The departure of Mrs Lee was undeniably, a great blow to this great man.

It seemed unreal that the mighty man himself had departed. Death is something that spares no one, not even the mighty man. I sincerely hope that it had been a peaceful and painless one.

May Mr Lee and Mrs Lee meet together in the other side. Although Mr Lee had so unromantically expressed that it will be quite impossible, if not the other side will probably be overpopulated, I still hope that Mr Lee is given an exception because he was such an unexceptional man. Goodbye Mr Lee.  请走好。

Ive caught the cough virus from hubby since CNY. Till now, Ive not recovered.. grrr..in fact, the virus evolved from cough to flu to fever then back to cough. Im now a green phelgm spitter with super gao mucus from the nose. Sounds disgusting I know. SIGH.

I cant remember when Ive eaten french fries, fried food, ice cream etc. On a positive side, Ive lost 1-2 kg. Most 'effective' slimming method lor...

Oh ya, Im going to Korea in late April - May. Tickets from Cathay Pacific, $607 including taxes, good deal right? =)

I want to go strawberry picking but apparently there isnt a lot of information from the website. And mostly in Korean, no choice, got to wait for KTO ( Korea Tourism Organization) to reply me lor. Hope they can help me arrange! * cross fingers*

Since this is my 2nd trip F&E, I want to explore a bit more out of the norm tourist spots, pls email or leave me a comment if you know an interesting place/food ok? Thanks!!!
