Journey With Deb

Last weekend Terence and I went for our jog at Bukit Gasing, we took an alternate route back. Instead of walking through the jungle, we walked on road. On the left were tall retaining walls with PVC pipes sticking out of them. Sparrows flew in and out bobbing their heads as they watched us walk [...]

Disappointments are hard to swallow, no one looks forward to it much less expects it to lurk around the corner. But that is life – it’s filled with ups and downs and we’re tested at all pitstops before we make it to the next milestone. Recently I was dropped with two bombshells by two different [...]

Recently we installed Astro at our little abode and I insisted on having Discovery Health and Living in our package. [...]

Having gone through the tedious but exceptionally fulfilling route of wedding planning, we realize that we didn’t need to empty our pockets and drain our bank accounts in order to make ‘the’ day memorable. I strongly encourage all soon-to-be-weds and those eventually planning to tie the knot to start with a realistic budget and work [...]
