For those of you who don’t understand the title, it loosely translates to mean “My Father’s Pearls of Wisdom.” Why this section? Cause my dad, he’s a classic. From the strict authoritarian whom I once knew, he has metamorphosised into this sentimental, loving and kind sweetie. Or rather, he is now more open about revealing that side of himself.

Hee hee… they never fail to amuse William and myself, and here, I share some of these little gems. Yes, I know, I sense the makings of “cult status” here, doncha think?

Straits Times reports that every 6-7 days, one Singaporean under the age of 40 would suddenly just drop dead from over-exertion due to clogging of arteries, so better don’t over-exercise.
