I can’t believe it’s been five whole years since I wrote my first entry in this blog. Can’t believe that the most inconsistent girl in the world actually managed to maintain something for that long – churning out 800+ posts ain’t no joke. It was my friend Flisha who first told me that there is […]

Clarke Quay and Alarice
Some nights out last week. Clarke Quay It was Ervyn’s last week in Singapore, so LL thought of going on a night out in Clarke Quay. We had some drinks on the bridge before going inside Pump Room, which charges no entrance fee. We danced the night away and it felt so good that when […]
Raining with Kindness
Yesterday I was issuing an invoice to a customer (cashiering is just one of my myriad of roles – HR, payroll, AP, AR, GL, you name it, I’m it.) when I spied the guy he was with and his bag of stuffed toys. I suppose I gave it a cursory glance because I was curious […]
A Son’s Tears
I got such a shock last Saturday midnight when I got an email from Gelle informing us that Joey’s dad had passed away that afternoon due to an asthma or heart attack (results were inconclusive and they didn’t subject him to autopsy anymore). What makes this sadder is that Joey and Gelle had flown back […]
Up in the Air {Movie Review}
I watched Up in the Air tonight. It wasn’t an outstanding movie, but it was nice enough, made me laugh at some parts and cry in others. It’s a movie about life, about pursuing your passions or goals, about lifestyle choices we make and how the things we think are good are not necessarily so and how […]

Tapa King Singapore
Tapa King opened a franchise in Singapore this March, so we decided to check it out. One more reason to drop by Lau Pa Sat! I went with Betchie, Yves and Arlyn. I had the tapa king meal with a side order of salted egg with tomatoes. They served their meals on a sheet of […]
I Believe in Dreams
Once upon a time in the faraway kingdom of ZC, a little 11-year-old girl had a dream – she wanted to be a writer. But she was too timid to fight for her dream, so she pursued it in secret, by writing on the pages of her diary. She would have liked to make a […]
An Oscars Event
Cate and I joined a contest held by Golden Village through their Facebook account last week and by some twist of luck, we both won a pair of tickets for this: So we took Tatsie and Maria and headed there. Cate and Tatsie were already on leave for that day prior to winning, and my […]
Cate & Rodel Turn 28
For Catey’s birthday, I thought of recomposing a song and serenading her with it. Since she loves Glee, I decided to use “Take a Bow.” I rewrote the lyrics to suit her, printed it out for my flatmates, then we rehearsed it in the living room while the birthday girl slept in our bedroom. We […]
