My Little Green Meal Box

I've never failed to elicit giggles and surprised looks on aunties and uncles when I passed them my little green tupperware meal box to pack a meal!

Let's do our little part for the environment by bringing our own meal boxes! I look forward to the day when stares are given to those who didn't bring their own boxes!

Last Friday, my wife and I volunteered at the "Racial Harmony Day" annual event at Montfort Junior School. It was a real fun and memorable event with yummy traditional and multicultural food and interesting activities like rickshaw rides and whacky photo booths.

Happiness


“Your Happiness will find you when you help others find theirs.”

“The surest way to lose happiness is to seek it."


"If you're not happily exhausted at the end of the day, it means you have not found a worthy challenge that exploits your fullest potent…
