2 things I asked of the Lord, do not refuse me before I die: Keep deception and lies far from me, Give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is my portion, lest I be full and deny You and say, “Who is the LORD?” or lest I be poor, and [...]
A beautiful poem that always minister to me in times of sorrow / difficulties: “Until I learned to trust, I never learned to pray. I never learned to fully trust Till sorrows came my way. Until I felt my weakness, His strength I never knew; Nor dreamed till I was stricken That He would see [...]
Dear friends, We just wanna say a big thank you to all of you for showering us with so much care and concern during this time. We are comforted by you. Update 1 – Healing Progress: I’ve recovered emotionally (I shall more another time) and am mostly fine now. God’s healing has been amazingly fast. [...]
This was me, before the accident: About an hr later, I looked more horrible than this! My lips and gum were bruised and swollen. I’ve ulcers in my mouth. I lost a upper front tooth; there are cracks across all my front teeth. I was given 3 to 4 stitches inside my mouth and another [...]

Roxanne | January 20th, 2010 | Uncategorized | No Comments »
Just the other day, I found our handphone charger wire that we left on the floor got entwined with Roomba. It wasn’t a bad thing to me as I’m now all the more convinced of its cleaning power. But little did I know, this wonder-bot actually saves lives! This article is taken from Israel’s Yediot [...]

Leo | December 17th, 2009 | Uncategorized | 3 Comments »
The awaited sequel of the vampire series – The Twilight Saga: New Moon did not fail to disappoint with their impressive graphics, artistic scenes and.. the love triangle romance of the 3 hottest Hollywood stars of the moment. After the show, I couldn’t resist my temptation to ask Roxanne, “Who would you choose if you were Bella? The [...]
Tiger Woods Affairs – ‘Roving eyes of Men’ Part 2
Leo | December 11th, 2009 | Uncategorized | No Comments »
Even as a young man, I know how badly I struggled with pornography and masturbation. The innate lustful nature in me governs this aspect of my life. I am a good kid with a reasonable background, but when it comes to sexual desires, the monstrous hormones seemingly take control of it all. Pornography was an [...]

Leo | December 9th, 2009 | Uncategorized | 1 Comment »
You must have read about Tiger Woods and his strings of affairs. Did you also read of Joanne Soh’s column in response of Mr Woods escapades: “My mum is right Men are pigs“ in the New Paper? Her column received a barrage of replies via the forum, most of whom criticizes her for putting men down [...]
The Stockdale Paradox applied in relationship!
Roxanne | November 26th, 2009 | Uncategorized | No Comments »
I have been picking up good marketing books to read. One of these books – Jim Collins’ Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap And Others Don’t, is a book which is changing my life right now. It’s one of those that gives me real headaches… Every chapter is filled with many concepts [...]
Last weekend, I celebrated my first birthday as Mrs Leo. For those who doesn’t know Leo, he isn’t someone who plans events or parties, but he will make special efforts for me. This is one of the many ways that he expressed his love for me and I feel so privileged. =) Because of that, [...]
Tipping Point for Singapore to be Sexually Infectious?
Leo | October 26th, 2009 | Uncategorized | 2 Comments »
I read a report today citing how British backpackers when they travelled to Australia, often had triple the number of sexual partners they would have at home. The really sad thing is, even for those who are already married or have a partner at home, 39.7% of them continued to have multiple sexual partners in [...]
Was just sharing with a group of friends telling them about how thankful I am for Roxanne. 4 months plus into marriage and after resolving a recent conflict, I feel closer towards her than ever before. It’s amazing as I have always thought we were close enough, but just feel closer even now. It’s my wish [...]
Attending our buddy’s wedding today reminds us of our own big day just 4months ago. It was a big joy to see Jiajun finally marrying Basia today. I still remember those days where we share bits and pieces about our hits and misses on girls. Like most people, there were journeys of disappointments. Then almost [...]
One of the most memorable moments at our wedding was when Leo sang a self-composed wedding song for me. It was supposed to be a hush-hush thing but I kinda sensed it coming, so the act itself wasn’t entirely surprising. However, he still managed to surprise me by writing a Chinese song! ;p I was [...]
Recently, I was with a group of married friends who are mostly in their 40+ who asked me how marriage life is. I was out of words because it is just hard to describe at times how blessed and blissful I am to now be with Rox as my wife, soul mate and life partner. However, [...]
Often, as a couple, one of the questions Leo and I inevitably get is, “How did the two of you meet?” Well, it’s a long story but nevertheless exciting. The journey was full of adventure and miraculous happenings. It is, to me, the best love story ever told. We really wish we could share all [...]
To me, work life balance essentially means time with my wife. In a society like Spore, it’s hard to practice work life balance. We have a culture where it’s the norm to work late past your working hours. In many companies, when you leave on time, you will be frowned upon, though there’s actually nothing [...]
Hi friends, sorry we hadn’t post for a while. Other than work and adjusting to our new life together, Leo and I had been busy attending seminars by highly sought after speakers. One of such is the ‘Journey to Intimacy’ Facilitator Training Program by Dr Huang Wei-Jen. Dr Huang is a world renowned clinical psychologist [...]
Today, I saw some of our wedding pictures on our photographer’s blog. They are lovely! We are very pleased with Derrick’s works. He is very good at capturing moods and emotions, and that’s the reason why we chose him to be our wedding photographer. =) I especially liked the shot of my dad crying. I’ve [...]
Just last night, we shared with a group of dear friends about how God has provided us with our house (read: Dream House 1 & Dream House 2). As Leo recounted the process, I sat there, marveled by God’s wondrous work and provision for us. Indeed, this house is His inheritance for us. And we [...]
