Favourite Music - l love all genres of music, but my favourite would have to be rock ballads. Currently feeling a little sentimental after the death of lead singer of the band Alleycats, Loganathan. I grew up listening to the band so I am listening to their best songs on a double album.
Personal Philosophy and why -
"Think positive and live positive"
I totally agree with Albert Einstein that said, "There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."
Favourite Actor - Robert De Niro
Favourite Actress - Meg Ryan
Favourite Sport -
Football!
I was introduced to the game by my dad since I can remember. I had followed Manchester United since the age of 5 and I have been supporting them since. Ofcourse I love the French National Team too for obvious reasons and like the England team due to familiarity and habit.

Five interesting things you did not know about me -
1. I am an 'order' maniac. I like things to be neat, proper and orderly.
2. I like AV stuff and electronic gadgets.. I am quite a techy person.
3. I am a movie buff and a couch potato.
4. I spend a lot of time in the toilet... reading.

What I do with my family during my free time -
We go out shopping or makan together. My daughters like the outdoors like Sentosa and the beach, so we also often go to gardens, parks or Sentosa. Sometimes, we just laze around at home playing board games.
One thing I would like to see more in people -
I hope people could connect with each other. People should smile more and say 'hi' and 'hello' more often to fellow residents, colleagues, school mates, neighbours and even strangers. These simple things are the what will make a difference in our efforts to promote community bonding and enhance social cohesion. Yes, SIMPLE yet meaningful gestures to our fellow human beings.
