This is a conversation that happens fairly often. Recently it happened again, with a different set of characters. “He seems like a decent guy. So what’s the problem?” we ask, after she tells us about a boy. “He’s younger than me!” she sighs. “So? Age does not matter,” someone else points out. This is the […]
Birthday Celebration @ Pan Pacific Hotel
I celebrated my birthday with my hometown friends like I did last year – in a hotel room. I served Ikea chicken wings, Canadian pizza, and hokkien mee. Anne and Mark brought their wii and guitar and we all had such a blast eating and playing and jamming and talking and laughing with each other. […]
Zenie in Singapore
The last time I saw Zenie, it was also in September and also in Singapore, but three years ago. She was back in Singapore just in time for my birthday, flying in from UK, where she has been working for some four years now. Gay and I met her in terminal 3 and we had […]
Birthday Cakes
For the first time in the history of me working, I decided to take a birthday leave! Yahoo! So… now what? *Crickets chirping* Aha! I can wax nostalgic and take a look at pictures of my previous birthdays. (Whew! Crisis avoided.) My first ever birthday. Obviously I don’t remember anything about it but the pictures show that […]
Surprised
My first birthday surprise came this morning when I arrived at my work station to find Hershey’s kisses on it. Turns out it was from my new seatmate Tinay. She said she had been pressured when I jokingly told her the day before that I was expecting a surprise. LOL! Such a sweet gesture nonetheless. […]
I Miss Puppies
The mocha smell of their breath as they lick your face. The gentle pressure of their teeth as they playfully nibble on your hands. The cute sound of their high pitched barks as they try to get your attention. The way they chase you around the house. Their soft fur that smell really nice right […]
Crazy Stupid Love (Movie Review)
I had absolutely no clue what the movie was going to be about, didn’t even see any trailers of it. The title gave me the impression that it was another one of those mosaic movies ala Love Actually, but it’s not. The movie revolves around just two guys – Cal and Jacob. Mostly Cal, though. […]
Joint Birthday Celebration with Jemma
Jemma and I threw a joint celebration for our birthdays and cooked up some Pinoy goodies for the dwarfs at their place. Jemma cooked her pancit with quail eggs, Maya fried some spring rolls and cheese sticks, Dred whipped up some maja blanca, while I threw together a buko salad and grilled some pork liempo […]
Fast Cars and Fancy Women
Jyn invited us to watch a musical play that was being put on by his alma mater, Nanyang University, and we went to see it last night. It was held in the auditorium of another school, ACJC, which was located in Buona Vista. I had only ever been there once before, to be part of […]
Divergent by Veronica Roth (Book Review)
I bought this book upon Lord Voldemort’s recommendation. Okay, I don’t mean the real dark lord from the Harry Potter series, but a witty guy who pretends to be him. This is the official overview of the story: In Beatrice Prior’s dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of […]
