One of the pics we entered under Cate’s name in the Donut Empire photo challenge won a $50 donut voucher. Last night, we attended the halloween-themed awarding ceremony held in Tanjong Katong…or rather, I did. Gelle and Cate arrived after the ceremony was done, but still in time to load up on free-flowing donuts and […]
Keeping Kelly
She was near tears, I could tell. But she tried her best to keep them at bay. Maybe it was because she did not want to ruin the face that her makeup artist had spent hours on perfecting. But it would not have mattered even if she had ruined the makeup. It would not have […]
Khatib Acoustic Night
“Pinay?” This was the question that started my journey to Khatib to join an acoustic night which turned out to be a birthday celebration of two Pinays. I brought Cate along with me, and we ended up having a lot of fun. We were clapping and screaming just as hard as the people who actually […]
The Singapore Flyer
My high school classmate Chi visited her sister AA, who is also working here. Yesterday, Cate and I rode the Singapore Flyer (the biggest observation wheel in the world) with them and Chi’s boyfriend Punch, who also came with her. I loved the view, but as usual, I wasn’t too crazy about the height. Damn […]
Climbers vs Jumpers
While emailing with a friend about her current heart stories, I was reminded of another friend’s blog when she was in a similar situation a long time ago. So I dug up her old blog and decided to post a couple of her entries here just because they give me mixed feelings of wanting to […]
Random Acts of Kindness
Back in college, our org moderator put up a challenge – we were supposed to do a number of random acts of kindness within a certain span of time. I don’t remember the specifics, but notes were part of the assignment. Signed notes of appreciation for friends and family were simple and common enough. The […]
Funny Furniture Adventures
Adventure 1: The Side Table in the Bus and MRT Yesterday I invited Cate to go to Ikea with me so that I could buy a bolster pillow and side table for me as well as a full length mirror for our room. So we headed to Tampines MRT station to ride the free shuttle […]
Drills and Thrills
Today we had to climb down 14 floors worth of stairs for our fire drill. My legs were shaking by the time I got down. A good thing I had worn flats in preparation for this event. When this had happened back in P&G, I was wearing stilettos. No wait..that wasn’t during the fire drill. […]
Missing My Penguin
Today was one lazy Saturday spent cooped up in our bedroom watching Pushing Daisies on someone’s laptop. When Peter hugged Cate’s teddy bear, I suddenly missed my own cuddly stuffed pet who is still in a bag I left in my old office back in the Philippines. Last Valentine’s day, we organized an exchange gifts […]
Royce Nama Chocolates: Little Drops of Heaven
When I got my first paycheck, I decided to treat my Singapore family to the most raved about chocolates which happened to have a store in Suntec City – Royce. Last time my former officemate Adette was here, she was looking for some to buy as pasalubong. Turns out she had bought the wrong thing. […]
