Brazo de Mercedes the Cat

by

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

by

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!

by

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

by

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, […]

Chipmunk Craze

by

It all started with one chipmunk. Then I got my own for Christmas, thanks to Chi and AA. Then Tyne and Monet were surprised when they both gave chipmunks to each other last Christmas. Then Rome, Caloy and April met my chipmunk Chinoop when they came here for a vacation and the next thing you […]

Library Love

by

Guess who just maxed out her library card again? That’s an 8-book limit, by the way, and each book can be borrowed for 3 weeks, renewable for another 3 weeks for free provided the book has not been reserved by someone else. This picture perfectly describes me I think the Singapore libraries are awesome not […]

Girls in Curls

by

Years ago, I got LSS (last song syndrome) on this radio commercial. Until now, whenever I see someone wear curly hair, the song plays in my head. @.@ Anyway, here are some girls who got digitally permed curls and bagay sa kanila ang kulot (curls look good on them). They look so bongga and mayaman […]

Got Marigold Milk?

by

I am not a fan of the taste of milk. I just force myself to drink it because I don’t want to end up with osteoporosis and also to help me lose weight. Yes, that’s right, milk helps you lose weight. I first read about it on Reader’s Digest, but it’s also in this article: […]

Someone is Obsessed with Eyeshadow

by

For my birthday last year, my friends Maya, Cate, Tatsie and Rodel gifted me with what I first thought was a wallet but which opened out to be a set of makeup brushes. According to my makeup artist friend Rome, Suesh is a good brand for brushes, and the ones she brought with her when […]
