My officemate invited me to her cousin’s barbeque held in Costa Sands Resort. I asked her what occasion was being celebrated, since it was a week night and all. But there was no occasion, this was just something that Singaporeans like to do, that is, rent a chalet on a week night, throw some stuff […]

Red Mango Frozen Yogurt
I am a huge fan of yogurt, most especially of frozen yogurt. The best one I’ve come across so far is Red Mango. The tart frozen yogurt was first introduced in Korea but later became the rave in the United States. Singapore is lucky to have one store located in Suntec City Mall ground floor […]
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button {Movie Review}
At the beginning of the year 2008, someone emailed a list of movies to watch out for. Right from the start, I got curious about The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and emailed my friends that this was the #1 movie I would watch out for in said list. Late last year, I found out […]
Singaporean KTV
Today is my teammate Eileen’s birthday, and she invited me to go to the KTV with her and her friends from the office – Di from our team, and Su, How Yang and Michael from the neighboring cubicles. Funny coincidence that exactly a year ago, Jen, my teammate then, also had her birthday and we […]

A Major Pain in the – Head
Kes once asked me what was the one thing, aside from my clothes, cellphone and wallet, that I could never leave the house without. For her it was makeup and for Gelle, earrings. Back then, I could not think of anything. Sure I wore makeup, but I could also do without it, as I proved […]
Conscious About My Subconscious
I’ve always been amazed with the existence of the subconscious ever since our Religion teacher Fr. Gascon discussed it in class back in High School. He told us that the mind is composed of the conscious and the subconscious. The former stores the details of everything that we are aware of while all the other […]
ENFP
I took the big five personality questionnaire and the resulting verdict sounds sooo me. I was happiest with their assessment of the top 3 careers I should be in, in order: Journalism, Communication and Theatre. These are the very careers that I dream of being in! But of course, dreams are not usually the reality. […]
