Having Fun in Class

Wait..., what? Is that even allowed??

When I returned to the university last year as a professor, I had some pre-conceived notions on how kids today studied and learned...and boy was I right! As it was when I was in college a decade ago (gulp!), there are a lot of things going on in these young adults' lives that could make it hard to concentrate in class. A genuinely 'difficult' subject, a terribly boring method of instruction, a teacher you just don't like, crazed series of sleepless nights, an unstoppable chit-chatter of a seatmate, matters of the heart and the list could go on and on. Compound that now with ALWAYS ON technology that we didn't have back then - truly smart smart phones and tablets. Nimble fingers now tip-tapping under their desks to uhm, "multi-task" while being in class.

Urban Champs at Chef Jessie's 100 Revolving Restaurant

Christmas is usually a time when people's feelings toward going out and eating can be polarized. At one end we have "nomnomnomnom hmmm good food!!" *grunt, snort, grunt, rub belly* and on the other "gaaah!! I need to watch my figure! bilbil here, bilbil there, bilbil all the way (sung to the tune of Jingle Bells)"

Chef Jessie's 100 Revolving Restaurant -- relax, only the carpeted area (and not the whole floor) revolves :)

Entering a New Season!

JANUARY 12, 2014 -- We welcomed the birth of our darling daughter, Zara Mireille Lim. Not long after, came the birth of her mommy and daddy. Even with 9 months to spare and prepare, it still felt like a jolt. Sudden, raw, different, tentative but altogether joyful and full of love.

And now our family has 3 babies! Just kidding! :) Welcome to Mommy Meowmeow -- see how we grow! :)

A new and 'explosive' kind of love :)
