March 12, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 12 Comments

It was my supervisor’s birthday last Friday, so I emailed this to her. She sits right next to me, so I heard her laugh. The day before, my team mate and I had talked about getting her a cake. Hari: I will buy the cake at CCP. What does she like?Me: She seems to like […]

February 16, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 12 Comments

My friend Tyne is leaving Singapore and moving to Canada, so my friends danced for her and I put the video footage together with our pictures and 7 last words and came up with the final product below. She also has footage dancing with the boys thanks to Cate’s genius idea of pretending that it […]

My Bestfriend’s Birthday Surprise: “Open When” Letters

January 17, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 26 Comments

It’s one of my bestie’s 30th birthday today so I decided to surprise her with 30 “open when” letters. I got the idea after reading Tiffany’s blog  about doing it as an anniversary gift for her boyfriend. Let me explain what that means and how I did it. First, I took 30 plain mailing envelopes and […]

Corporate Christmas Decors

December 30, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 16 Comments

I thought I’d sneak in one last Christmas-related post before December ends and show you the Christmas decors in our office. We have an annual Christmas decor contest, and as usual, people pulled out all the stops. Both our floors were completely decorated, so there are way too many pictures, but here are my favorite […]

7 Birthday Surprise Ideas

October 13, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 12 Comments

I have always loved to surprise loved ones on their birthdays. I was that girl who came up with handmade birthday cards and passed it around the classroom for everyone to write on. When technology evolved, I came up with blogs and other digital stuff. I know how tough it is to come up with […]

Throwback Thursday | Haven’t Met You Yet

September 26, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 11 Comments

Today’s Throwback Thursday post was triggered by this week’s HIMYM S09E02 “Coming Back.” Ted’s promise to himself reminded me of one of my favorite songs, Michael Buble’s Haven’t Met You Yet. Do you know that song? You can watch the music video below. The song is so Ted Mosby in that the singer is singing […]

Jenny’s Farewell

August 24, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 4 Comments

When my team mate Jenny resigned and left Singapore last month, we came up with something for her send-off. I thought that since she was going to be a housewife when she goes back home, we could make a cookbook-themed scrapbook for her. I gathered recipes from my team mates and gave them colorful scraps […]

{Sunday Comics} The Sinister Siblings

July 13, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 6 Comments

I used to look forward to Sunday comics. While I was poring over our Disneyland pics and choosing the ones to use for my blog, I realized that some of the pics could tell a story (we didn’t plan it that way) and thought of making it into a comic. Moral lesson: kids, don’t steal! […]

Retailing Relationships

April 20, 2013 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 17 Comments

Sometimes when I’m out with fellow single girl friends, we eventually get round to the topic of our love lives. Or to be more correct, the lack thereof. Now the thing is, you can make plans about almost all things in your life – career, purchases, travels – but the one thing you can’t make […]
