A note to an Angel
Do you believe in Angels? We do. In the last week before we finally set off on the plane, our lives were filled with them. One of which, this entry is dedicated to. Dear Swee Kian, We didn’t tell you how mad we were with the news article But you turned out to be one [...]
Going “HD (high definition)”
It all started when Val scratched Tay’s glasses by accident, to the extent that they could no longer be used. And then Tay refused to wear her contact lens and refused to spend money on new spectacles. So you get a very grouchy and foul-mood Tay, knocking into things here and there, taking 8 hours [...]
24 Hours Cycling Challenge Fundraiser – becoming the person we want to be
We had grand ideas for the 24 Hours Cycling Challenge Fundraiser. We wanted to challenge our physical limits – If we can cycle for 24 hours, we can do anything. We can cycle around the world. We wanted to create awareness – If we stream the entire process “live”, people would be drawn in to [...]
Of Scabbed Knees, Shins, and Heart
A “scab” is the crust formed over a wound during healing. When we decided to document every step of our journey in this project, starting from hometown Singapore, we made a decision to “put ourselves out there”, even when it comes to presenting our vulnerable selves – our fears. We said that Project Singapore was [...]
Building Confidence from Fitness, First
During our first meeting with Sarah, she gave us our Fitness First packages in return for our commitment to “train as hard as we could”. She wasn’t the only person who knew that we needed training. We were very, very, acutely, aware that we needed help. We just didn’t know how much help, and how [...]
Singapore – The Straits Times on 14 March 2010
What it should have been: Times like these, we remember why we left the industry to pursue what we are doing right now – to spread positivity through media. Nonetheless, we are still extremely grateful for the exposure, for it brought us dear angels like Swee Kian and Clarence!
Adopt a Minute of our 24Hr Cycling Challenge Fundraiser
We’ve sold our belongings to “burn our bridges” and made sure there was no turning back for us… We’ve organised a “Bon Voyage Fundraiser Dinner” to bid our dear ones and supporters a proper farewell… People have come “just to pass us some money” and we are ever so grateful. Our current funds raised in [...]
Collecting our bicycles – The Joy, The Worry, The Challenge
Finally! We collected our bicycles from Rodalink. As you can see, happiness was jumping off our faces. It was like Eddy the Santa Claus came down the chimney and left us both a present. And then we became two little girls tearing away at the packaging from their new toys. We were overjoyed and we [...]
19th Mar: You’re invited to our Bon Voyage Fundraiser Dinner – come send your (fare)well wishes!
Note: Dinner is now on 19th March (Friday) because most of our dear ones cannot make it on the 12th, and this would also give us more time to sell tickets. So help us out and spread the word! We didn’t wanna call this a farewell party because it’s not goodbye, it’s not the end. [...]

a project to Overcome Fear
We have a confession to make. Before this journey, Val did NOT know how to cycle. In fact, she’s terrified of the bicycle. Before this journey, Tay has NEVER been in front of the camera. In fact, she’s horrified to be on-screen. View the video about the journey that began back at home in Singapore – the journey to overcome our innermost fears.
