Other side of the fence

Read a story about a little girl who, due to an accident, lost sight in one eye. Furthermore, in order to save the eyeball, a big scar was left behind in the eyeball. This physical deformity has left her feeling self-conscious while growing up and if not for her mother’s constant encouragement, she would probably never be able to walk with her head held high.

Well, yesterday I met with a minor accident of my own when my spectacles were knocked from my face. As a result, there are some scratches along both sides of the bridge of my nose. Not too serious, but I am sure the internal bruising and the cuts (very noticeable) will remain for at least the next week or so.

State of mind

Soar like a bird

Spent a couple of days on Genting Highlands (in Malaysia) over the weekend, and had a chance to “learn to fly” at one of the attractions called Sky Adventure – apparently the only such facility in the whole South East Asia. Essentially, it’s like being inside a gigantic vacuum cleaner. Yep, that’s me (in blue) in the photos! The photos were frame captures from a video tape, hence the poor quality.
