Most people label me as an extrovert. All the personality tests I take say the same thing. But today I realized that I might be an introvert after all. Why? Because I am sitting in the corner of a dark room instead of going downstairs and mingling with my brother’s family-in-law and other guests. I […]
I’m Not That Girl Anymore
Sometime last month, my friend invited a few of her friends to an intimate homemade lunch to celebrate her birthday. After stuffing our faces full of delicious tilapia and chicken and other delights, we somehow got to talking about the differences between the youth and us, people in their thirties. “My niece is always posting […]
Cheers to Fifteen-Year Friends
My brother asked me to help him design his wedding invitation. I don’t know where he got the idea that it was in my set of skills. Luckily, I do know how to use Picmonkey for designing stuff, so I managed to find a way. The perks of being a blogger, eh? Then just when […]

The Importance of Friends
I am referring to friends the common noun and not Friends the proper noun, but I would like to start this post about the latter, which is Friends my favourite sitcom of all time.

6 Things That Happen When You Move Abroad
6 years ago to the day, I landed in Singapore with a trolley full of my most precious possessions and a food keeper full of instant noodles and canned goods, AKA food I eat whenever I move to a new city and don’t have a job yet so I need to be thrifty. There was […]
My Guilty Pleasures
I decided to join in on this month’s Total Social and post my guilty pleasures at this particular moment in time! (1) Watching celebrities participate in the ALS ice bucket challenge. Because it’s fun and for a good cause – raising awareness and funds for ALS. My favorite so far is the one done by […]
Sometimes I Find Solace in Being Solitary
Last Sunday, I went to church then decided to go on an impromptu trip to the beach… by myself. I took the MRT to Vivo City and took another train to Sentosa island. I was wearing a long, thick Sunday frock with high heeled cork wedges, something that is completely NOT suitable for the beach, […]
