Sometime this week, my Facebook reminded me that on this day two years ago, I was vacationing in the Pagsanjan Falls in the Philippines and had not even blogged about it because of reasons. So my Travel Tuesdays have become Throwback Tuesdays, have you noticed? Anyway. This Throwback Travel Tuesday is about my trip to […]

My First Salt Water Taffy and Pez
My teammate Guohao went on a business trip to New Jersey and Halifax and spent three days trying to get back to Singapore. I warned him about flying United Airlines. 😅 But his woes didn’t end when the plane landed on Singapore soil, though. As he waited for his baggage – you guessed it – […]
London Borough Market {Deetour}
One of the must-visit places in London for foodies or photographers or both is the Borough Market. Luckily, my dear hosts AA and Melvin knew this and brought me ’round one fine Saturday that I was there last September. AA was super excited to go to the Borough Market for her favourite sugar donuts from Bread Ahead. […]
Userism Bright Whitening Ultra-Water Facial Mask {Review}
I think I’ve finally found the prettiest facial mask of all time – the Userism Bright Whitening Ultra-Water Facial Mask. Have you ever seen a sheet mask in prettier packaging? Test tubes and tweezers! How creative is that? I posted this photo on the Asian Beauty subreddit, and a lot of girls agreed with me. Don’t you agree […]
Manicure District Gel Nails {Review}
Today I went to get a gel manicure at Manicure District, a home-based manicure salon in Tampines. What’s great about home-based salons is that they are way cheaper than your typical mall-based salons. Gel manicures usually cost $70 or more in malls, but in Manicure District they’re only $35. That’s half the price! If you […]
Serlando Rosy Pink Moisture Dew {Review}
Today I’m going to review Beauty-Keeper’s bestselling Serlando Rosy Pink Moisture Dew which I got at the Sample Store Beauty Show. Serlando Rosy Pink Moisture Dew is a clear coloured liquid that turns a customized shade of pink once it comes in contact with your lips or other private body parts. I say “customized” because the shade of […]
We’re The Furballs Dog Cafe @ Bugis+
One of the most popular posts on this blog is my review of the We’re the Furballs Dog Cafe which I wrote years ago. They have moved since then, so I thought I should update it by paying a visit to the their new location in Bugis+. The irony is that their old location would have […]
I have a Goddog (A Puppuccino Story)
A few weeks ago, my friend Chi got a poodle as a birthday present from her husband. “What should I name him?” She asked. “My husband suggests Sherlock. Or Van Gogh.” “Why Van Gogh?” I asked. “I don’t know!” She replied. “Peanut? Latte? Macchiatto?” “Ramen?” I suggested. “Because of the curly hair? Or Justin Timberlake!” […]
Mayfields Lavender Fields {Deetour}
Last Sunday’s post about blossoms reminded me of another time when I went somewhere else where there were blossoms everywhere – and this time I actually traveled outside of Singapore. This was last year in September, when I was in London and I had the chance to visit Mayfield Lavender Fields. This is the description […]
Yan Ming’s Wedding (Peony Jade @ Keppel Club)
I was invited to my teammate Yan Ming’s wedding reception at Peony Jade at Keppel Club last March, and it was the very first Singaporean wedding I had ever been to, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was too early, it turns out. Oh, I was on time according to the wedding invitation, […]
