My fat cells have a memory like Einstein! I'm proof that surgery is not a magic potion. There are many ways to sabotage it.

Like everyone else, I have challenges.

I have willpower and determination. I am very resilient, like rock.

It's such a rush doing a concert and seeing people actually mouthing the lyrics.

I'm always crying. I get a lump in my throat when I see intimacy between parents and their children.

I have realised that to ensure my family stays healthy, it is important I stay fit and healthy myself.

I can watch CNN on television or the Internet to find out what happened in Hong Kong ten minutes ago. After all, it doesn't matter where something is made, we're all part of the same big family now.

As a child, I was an observer, a listener for the stories of grown-ups. I led a quiet, solitary life with my mother, interrupted in the evenings by the arrival of my father who preferred to live in a state of emergency.
