Memory is a very tricky thing. Especially my own. See, people are usually very amazed at my excellent long term memory. I can recollect scenes from the past quite vividly or remember poems or song lyrics by heart. I can recite quotes from movies or TV shows or books verbatim. I also remember everyone’s birthdays. […]
CNY in Batam, Indonesia {Deetour}
Last Friday, we suddenly decided to book a trip to Batam, Indonesia for the Chinese New Year since Monday and Tuesday were holidays and we had a long weekend. Tatsie found this website and made an inquiry. We wanted to go on the 14th and 15th but the agent advised that those dates were already […]
Valentine’s Day {Movie Review}
It’s like Love Actually, but instead of Christmas, the central occasion is Valentine’s Day. The official plot description goes: “Intertwining couples and singles in Los Angeles break-up and make-up based on the pressures and expectations of Valentine’s Day.” It has a Hollywood star-studded cast and directed by the director of one of the most well-known […]
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
I wanna read this. I know, that’s a movie, but it’s based on a book. I’m enamored by fantasy books but movies, not so much. Take Harry Potter for example. I wasn’t impressed by the two movies I had seen before I finally got my hands on book one – then I read all the […]
CNY Celebration
Today, our boss personally handed out our Chinese New Year bonuses in red packets. When he gave me mine, he told me to work hard – not that he’s implying that I’m a slacker, it’s just that I’ve only been a month in the company and should not have a bonus. But he explained last […]
Sunflowers Made Our Day
After watching The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, we walked outside so that Yves and Betchie could steal some smokes before we had dinner. That’s when I spotted two sunflowers slotted through the holes on the concrete tiles on the ground. They looked so bright and cheerful that Arlyn and I just had to take a […]
The Real Chinese New Year
My boss is a big believer of Feng Shui and apparently there is a feng shui master who calculated the real start of the Chinese New Year to be today. So he instructed the guys to make offerings to the fortune god. I wasn’t able to take a picture because I didn’t realize they were […]
Pineapple Juice Diet
According to my friend Kes, her secretary lost 17 pounds in a span of one month (she started dieting last January 5). Her diet? Lots and lots of Del Monte unsweetened pineapple juice and lesser rice than she normally ate. She apparently lost a lot of belly fat. I’m gonna try it. Wanna join me? […]
Feng Shui Bedroom
Seeing my makeup all organized in a pretty pink box inspired me to clean up my room too. I had rearranged it for my P&G friends’ visit so that we would have more space but I’m not happy with the way it looks. Inspired by my boss’s fondness for Feng Shui, I decided to do […]
Make Up Box
I finally bought a big kit to organize all my makeup. They used to be all over the place, so that whenever I had to transfer to the kitchen, where the light is better, I had to take several trips when in the middle of my session, I realize that I had forgotten something and […]
