Reflecting On My Three Months of Lockdown
They’ve said we can go out. Lockdown is over. I thought this is what I have been craving for three months. Yet, now that I can, I’m not sure I want to. For the past few weeks it has been raining non-stop in Singapore. There is even a rumour that the Singapore Government has been…
Read MoreWhere is our 20/20 Vision At Now?
It is six months into our annus horribilis and we are holding our breaths for what comes next. To be frank, we did not enter 2020 well. Australia was on fire and the spotlight was firmly on climate change. Over in the East, a mysterious virus was starting to fester in Wuhan. And in the…

A PUBIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT This post is not about waking up at 40 and wanting to go on a sex-crazed rampage. This is women’s business. It is about my vagina being on fire. Like actually on fire. I am hoping that my experiences will shed light on something that can help at least one Maxer…
