Idol Chatter

The final 12 for this season’s (Season 2) Singapore Idol has been chosen, and I’m happy to report that my two favourites, Mathilda D’Silva (pictured left) and Gayle Nerva, both with powerful vocals, are amongst the dozen finalists. Well done!

Off to Phuket!

The kids and I are taking off to the island paradise of Phuket tomorrow for the school hols and one of my dilemmas is: which books to pack for my holiday reading?
I mean, with my mom coming this time with us, I’ve got to be careful not to pack one of those romances with the […]
