From Raja to Oscar
The book, Slumdog Millionaire, written by Vikas Swarup (who’s a high-flying Indian diplomat btw) was called Q&A when it was first published. Swarup wasn’t really happy with the change of names, but since it sold better, he let it go. These are some astonishing facts I’d like to share with you:1) The book was written…

An Afternoon @ PJ Shelter Home
The book donation went well! Hurray! My parents, my hubby and I were there at about 12.30pm. There were 15 children altogether, and they were a jolly bunch! Most of them were really friendly, jovial and pretty hyper 🙂 Only one or two of the boys who were quiet and reserved. The boys played “sticks”…
Thanks To All Who Donated!
Special thanks to my parents, my 8th uncle & family, my aunt Fenny, Pansing, and Andrea for donating your books. All of them are in good condition and are great page turners. Some of them are classics! I really hope the children will enjoy reading them 🙂 See the “presents” in the picture? In it,…
A Cut Above Celebrates Its 30th!
I’ve never met someone as down to earth as Winnie Loo. The first time we ever “conversed” was via email, and since then we kept in touch quite regularly. And although we have met only twice, she remembers my name. She even remembers the name of my blog! I mean, for a person of her…
