Here\u2019s my profile :<\/font><\/p>\n

Born in 1956, I am a single parent with a teenage daughter.  I was married to a French expatriate and moved with him to Cairo (4 years), Shenyang (4 years), Beijing (2 years) and France (2 years).  Prior to that, I worked and lived in England for 3 years.  My daughter and I returned to Singapore in December 1998 and the long-distance divorce procedure was finalized by 2000.<\/font><\/p>\n

I am currently a secretary to the MD of a French MNC.<\/font><\/p>\n

I am not much into sports.  In my early 20s, I used to swim 3 times a week, play a little badminton, table tennis and billiard.  I started bowling when I was 15, and for about 2 years, my average score was around 150.  Although I can do some ice-skating and skiing, my only exercise regime these days, is dancing.   I dance 4 to 5 time a week doing line-dancing, social and Latin dances.  (I was a part-time dancer for the People\u2019s Association in my mid 20s performing for National Day and Chin-Gay parades.)  I also enjoy cycling for leisure.<\/font><\/p>\n

Unlike Terence, I\u2019m not into cheap and low cost travel because of safety and time factor.  When I was single, I travelled mostly alone either for work or for holidays.  For work, I traveled mainly to Asian countries.  For holidays, I traveled mostly to Europe (I\u2019ve seen more of Europe than my French husband).  After I got married, I travelled only first class because my ex-husband wouldn’t have it any other way.  All in all, I\u2019ve been to 36 countries.<\/font><\/p>\n

Food wise, I\u2019m the type who eats to live and not lives to eat.  I\u2019m not fussy with food and will not go out of the way or join a long queue for food like how some of my fellow Singaporeans do.  However, I do pine for certain gourmet food such as caviar, fois gras, couscous, steak tartar, salade gourmande, moules, fruits de mer, tarte flamb\u00e9, jambonneau, rillettes en baguette and pat\u00e9 de lapin.<\/font><\/p>\n

My greatest concern is my daughter \u2013 that, I will bring her up well to be a responsible and sensible person, strong in her faith and belief.  So far, she hasn\u2019t given me any cause for worry.<\/font><\/p>\n

My primary goal in life \u2013 is to be strong in my faith.  My secondary goals, is to be financially independent, fit and healthy, and to remain active for as long as I can.<\/font><\/p>\n

I joined SHC since Oct. 2005 (Terence, please correct me if I\u2019m wrong) and joined the first cycling meet in Nov.  There were only 4 of us (Charles Wee, Andrew Yeung, Low Yew Kwong and myself).  Charles added bubbles with remarks on the pictures taken on that day – they were so funny.  I tried to attach these photos of SHC\u2019s first cycling meet here but was not successful.   (Charles, may be you can post those pictures on the SHC website huh?)<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
