		<description><![CDATA[We open our mailbox and there are the usual flyers and bills. And an envelope in the shape of a Hallmark card. We dump the flyers in the rubbish bin and carry the rest with us back to our apartment. Once inside, we drop our bags to the floor and settle onto the daybed. An [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are at dinner with your colleagues, a sort of post-Chinese-New-Year reunion for one of them who has just returned from Houston with his wife in tow. The first dish arrives &#8211; a platter of yin/yang prawns (half cooked in Marmite sauce and the other half in what resembles an oriental Thousand Island dressing) &#8211; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You race across the page, one typo after another to correct. There is one more story to submit and then it&#8217;s into the taxi already waiting and off to the airport. It&#8217;s a conference. Jakarta beckons. You await the smog that will hit you when you land, a physical presence to the very air of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We grow old. We all do. And as we get older, sometimes past friendships dim and dissipate. They don&#8217;t entirely disappear (though that they do, some do, one cannot predict these things, it seems) but we all know what happens. There is a distance. This is okay for there are a few friendships that still [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You tell me you design lights now. You love what you do. Some day soon, your boss tells you, you will get to travel, meet clients. Europe, Barcelona maybe. You will meet more than clients; you&#8217;ll get to meet some of the masters in your chosen field and maybe some which are not. Gaudi&#8217;s work [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You call me every day. Sometimes we discuss what you had for lunch or what I&#8217;m cooking for dinner. The weather. Gossip. Secrets. We tell each other what&#8217;s really on our mind, what&#8217;s really weighing on our hearts. And in telling, in saying it out loud, in sharing these things, the heaviness disappears. Magic. Of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The singers are at the door. Not three wise men but a quartet of sweet children. Two young kings and two young queens, like the Pevensie children at the end of their first Narnian adventure. Their voices are angelsong and my German landlord rewards their performance with a donation for their chosen charity. All of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some days we all wish to be far, far away. If only. I&#8217;m driving into the city. The middle of the afternoon, early for our dinner appointment but hey, that&#8217;s how we avoid the traffic, right? Maybe not. The cars do not move, not one inch. And when they do, one crazy Mercedes after another [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There were once three women, wise and bold, who travelled far in search of a miracle foretold. Some say they were witches, some say they were queens. Perhaps they were none such and nothing in between. Across seas and deserts they roamed afar, to chase after a falling star. Three wise women, they walked like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am walking along Orchard Road, heavy with a blanket of artificial lights, and the gaudiness, the gawkiness of it all is deeply depressing. Hordes of Singaporeans running around for their last minute Christmas shopping, terse and tense. It&#8217;s warm, of course, humid and unhealthy. Christmas, I guess, hasn&#8217;t been one of my favourite times [...]]]></description>
