Nana’s Green Tea {Foodee}

by 4 Comments

After watching Star Trek Into Darkness, Dred and I decided to have dinner and found ourselves in Nana’s Green Tea in Plaza Singapura’s new wing. I loved the design of the place. It was spacious and had interesting details, like screens separating the tables and windows framed with lights. They were high tech, too, with […]

The Great Gatsby {Movie Review}

by 4 Comments

I read The Great Gatsby as a child but that was so long ago that I forgot what it was all about, so I went in with no expectations. And how was it? I loved it! It lived up to its name: GREAT. It’s one of the best movies I have seen this year. Well […]

Nantoy’s Last Day

by 7 Comments

Kids, this is the story of Nantoy’s last day in our office, the day we made him feel abandoned and friendless. It was a Singapore holiday yesterday, but we still had work because that’s how shared service centers roll, but we get free lunch on these days, so it’s all good in the hood. The […]

This was my outfit last Thursday. I’m glad our office attire is set to high end casual instead of business formal. I really love leopard prints and I have lots of stuff with this design – vanity kit, sunglasses, skirts, scarves, dresses, stockings. I bought these stockings from New Look. I was looking for printed […]

Star Trek Into Darkness {Movie Review}

by 4 Comments

First things first: I am not a hard core trekkie. I have never seen any of the TV series episodes nor any of the older films. The only Treks I’ve been on (pun completely intended) are the latest incarnations, and I loved them both. Here’s the thing: I never would even have watched them if […]

The Mother

by 6 Comments

“I am going to kill The Mother on HIMYM,” Chi typed in our chat room of four, after three of us gave our opinions about The Mother. “I don’t understand you!!” Poor Chi doesn’t watch How I Met Your Mother. “Hahaha. Sorry! But after 8 seasons of waiting, they finally showed The Mother,” I explained. […]
