“The Piccadilly Waltz” Piano Album

I know that it’s been a while since I released music… and this album is a rare baby in the sense that it’s a piano album. I’d always seen myself more as a singer, but when a music friend (Chester Tan) asked me to collaborate with him on this, I took up the challenge as […]

Vocal Coaching at SingingTechniques

And so… I’ve been teaching singing for 15 years, but it’s something that I haven’t been shouting about all these years. However on reflection, teaching singing is the one thing that has proven itself over and over again that is least effortful for me, and most impactful. The satisfaction of seeing my students improve week […]

Hua Wei Jingle – Vocal Producing (The Voice SG Contestants)

Hear the Hua Wei jingle here, which features The Voice Singapore contestants..and vocals produced by me! It was so fun to get to know each of the contestants’ unique vocal tone and singing style, assign them lines and create harmony lines etc. So happy for the opportunity 🙂 (L-R: Daniel, Minghua, Isaac, Meiqi, Alfred, Cherelle, me at Sonic Studio […]

Pink Dot Wefie

Why we took Dave to Pink Dot

It is my first time participating in the annual Pink Dot event at Hong Lim Park… and this time round, I felt it imperative that I participate and take Dave along.  It’s very simple really, so I’m going to keep this short. Now that I have a son (or daughter for that matter),  I can […]

Dave tongue out

Baby Dave Meets Buddy (Mini-Schnauzer)

Dogs and babies – we’ve seen so many cute photos and videos of them getting along together but we knew that Buddy wouldn’t take to baby Dave even before Dave was born. We got that answer in a scary way when, as a trial, we had a monkey soft toy masqueraded as a baby in my […]

Maternal Instinct

It doesn’t sound politically correct (to my son), but I’m gonna say it anyway – I didn’t feel the so called ‘love at first sight’, or the ‘I fell in love with you once i laid eyes on you’ sensation with my son (when he was first heaved onto my belly like a 3kg naked turkey). […]

Kim’s KItchen – Confinement Meal (TingKat) Review

My husband and I decided to do away with a confinement lady, mainly because I don’t really like the idea of strangers living in my house, and worse, dictating what I should or should not do after a major life event like giving birth. I didn’t think that we should chance the risk of introducing […]

Baby Bellies Post Natal Massage – Review

My huge belly deflated drastically after delivery, but the stretch marks (now even more wrinkled without being stretched out) and the fat lingered rather unflatteringly. Most part of it was also probably water retention. I was a little apprehensive when I signed up for Baby Bellies’ Post Natal Massage package during the pregnancy, because I […]

Getting a seat on the MRT while you are pregnant

This is ideal for pregnant women, alas we don’t live in South Korea: I usually drive, but on the occasions when the husband needs the car more, I take the public transport for a change. For someone who works from home a lot, not having to squeeze with the morning/evening crowd during pregnancy is a […]

GDM

Gestational Diabetes (From Denial to Recipes)

My parents have high-blood pressure (with medication for control), so I’ve always thought it a possibility for me to experience pre-eclampsia during pregnancy. But no…. the Universe always finds its way to surprise me. Before Pregnancy I never had sweet tooth before my pregnancy. I didn’t have any cravings or aversions at all during the […]

The Announcement + Interview with Livewell Baby

I suppose this would be the perfect opportunity to announce. I didn’t intend to hide beyond the 1st trimester, but … I suppose I lost the inertia to announce it (plus I realised that the paranoia doesn’t quite end after the first 3 months). So here I am, week 30 with a super big belly, […]

I love the Ocean Gallery

Seriously, Ocean Restaurant has got to be one of the best restaurants in town. And no this is not an advertorial.  I was invited to perform for a wedding, and I remember my mind getting blown away when I stepped in and saw the huge aquarium, and the HUGE fishes. Now I am sure the glass […]
