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 […]
Brazo de Mercedes the Cat
I first saw him on the steps leading to the park last week, when Cate and I first hit the park for exercise. It was love at first sight. I bent down and said, “Aww he’s such a cutie!” It’s raining cats in Ang Mo Kio, but he was the first cat I saw with that […]
Wendy’s at Lau Pa Sat
A third reason to visit Lau Pa Sat: We discovered it only yesterday, thanks to a tip from Tyne and Monet. We couldn’t help ourselves and had to check it out today. I’ve always been a fan of their frosty back in the Philippines, so I tried out their twisted frosty with M&M’s. It’s made […]
Avatar, I See You!
Better late than never, as the saying goes. We finally watched Avatar this afternoon, after AA wondered if it was a rite of passage that one had to go through in life. I myself was wondering what the fuss was all about and agreed that we ought to watch it. So we watched it in […]
Impromptu Pool Party
It was just supposed to be a simple task of picking up Tatsie and Cate’s family’s padala from Rodel in Pasir Ris. Then Rodel’s officemates had the idea of having an impromptu pool party in a Simei condo and we got invited as well, transforming an otherwise bland Saturday into a very enjoyable one. Sometimes, […]
