To be a woman - this is pain.
To become a girl is to ache.
To become a lover is to ache.
To become a mother is to ache.
But the most unbearable pain on earth
Is the pain of being a woman
who has not felt all these aches
to the very last.
--- To Be A Woman / Blaga Dimitrova (Bulgarian Poet)
"Everything about woman is a riddle, and everything about woman has a single solution: that is, pregnancy."
--- Thus Spake Zarathustra / Friedrich Nietzsche

Keep The Pigeonhole Alive
"The Pigeonhole opened its doors on Duxton Road in March 2011. Over the past 20 months, we've supported the arts and civil society in Singapore by hosting events, exhibitions, gigs, and talks. We've also made friends with amazing musicians, artists, volunteers, geeks, and many more...
Now, because of issues with rental, we have to close down. Our last day will be Saturday 29 December 2012...
We started this fundraising campaign because we - and many of our friends and customers - really don't want us to close down. We don't have the funds to carry on in a new location, but we really want to continue to support the arts and civil society in Singapore."
There're no perks (I would've liked to have graffiti-ed something on the wall in their new premises) but go ahead and give anyway!
(also I'm helping organise an event that will take place there in late December, which hopefully will not be their last event. Watch this space [and others] for more details soon!)
