After I graduated with my A Levels in 2004, I was due to go to Warwick to begin my Political Science and Sociology degree. On Rinpoche‘s advice however, I did not take up my place and stayed in Malaysia instead. After touring a lot of colleges and looking at the courses offered, I decided to […]
Rinpoche said I could have anything I wanted from the gift room, so I picked yesterday’s thangka and this Lama Tsongkhapa. Why? Because he is the founder of our lineage, and the thangka because to prostrate to it would be to prostrate to the whole lineage in one go…I’m just greedy like that!
Rinpoche said I was off to begin my second year of university and I could pick anything I wanted from the Ladrang gift room…that’s like sticking a kid in a candy shop. One of the two items I picked was this, a full thangka of the Gelug tree with the Dalai Lama’s signature on it! […]
Look what came out in the press a few days ago! New Straits Times covered our mask distribution activity in KL. It would not be untrue for me to say I’m extremely proud of this, because we managed to help so many people in such a practical way 🙂 Click below to read the article […]
It’s just two shirts, what’s there to be grateful about, I hear you ask. I was in Bangkok for work and not in a good place mentally because my lama was compassionately manifesting unhappiness with my attitude. After some contemplation, I made a commitment to myself to bounce back. A few days later, Rinpoche arranged […]
Mum, Elisa and I were interviewed by the Star this morning for their “Do Good. Volunteer” fortnightly feature. Interviewing us was Kenneth Chaw, and taking the photos was Fifi who she asked us to throw different poses. Elisa and I, being totally clueless, threw pretty much the same poses again and again (sorry Fifi!) until […]
Courtesy of Ju, who we first met at the Tiffany’s Formula One dinner this year, Elisa and I attended the Carrera y Carrera event today in Starhill. Wow, there was some amazing jewellery there! (along with plenty of Datins :D) Let me start off by saying that although I don’t really “get” fashion, I am […]
Rinpoche was in the gift room getting gifts together for various people. Rinpoche teased us and asked if any of us would like this statue of HH Trijang Dorjechang. I immediately said yes…and Rinpoche looked at me and said I can have it because I love our lineage lamas so much o_O I’m still gobsmacked […]
Early this morning (because it is Bentong and everyone is up at the crack of dawn!), we went to distribute masks and eye drops in Bentong. This time, we distributed 2000 masks and 1000 eye drops. We were MOBBED as soon as we got out of our cars! In fact, we didn’t even have to […]
There are some girls who “get” fashion, and there are some girls who don’t. As much as I have tried over the years, fashion has never been something that has captured my attention in the way that it does with others. It’s not to say I find it irrelevant, pointless or anything of the sort. […]
