The Royal Guard

April 13, 2017April 18, 2017 OMB

I am too old to work as a Royal Guard at the Holyrood Palace.
Notice that all Royal Guards are much younger. They all look like they’re in their 20s. Older people are pala kamot and pala ihi. They cannot stand still for several hours.

Dear Readers, 
OMB was born out of my desire to keep my memoir alive for my family’s future generation. And more importantly for me, when I get so very old, I have something to look at and ponder on, to remember what my life was. I want to keep a record of all my activities but it’s difficult to do so because my lifestyle is a little varied so I find it hard to keep tab.

 This site has been in existence since April 2011. I don’t draft nor edit my posts. I offer no apologies for all errors or mistakes. Read and proceed with caution.

 My life’s more colorful than the rainbow and it also has tremendous amounts of gloomy days. It’s my decision to keep my personal diary open to everyone. I hope I don’t influence you in a bad way. Keep the good and throw away the bad. I hope there’s no bad. 

From my heart,
Annie C. Tan-Yee
