Songtwister

by

It started in my childhood. I had a notebook that I shared with my neighborhood friends Steph and Lenlen. It was like a scrapbook that held pictures we drew and songs we wrote. Songs whose lyrics we changed a bit so that it became our own… different but with no sense. Like changing the lyrics […]

Climbers vs Jumpers

by

While emailing with a friend about her current heart stories, I was reminded of another friend’s blog when she was in a similar situation a long time ago. So I dug up her old blog and decided to post a couple of her entries here just because they give me mixed feelings of wanting to […]

Funny Furniture Adventures

by

Adventure 1: The Side Table in the Bus and MRT Yesterday I invited Cate to go to Ikea with me so that I could buy a bolster pillow and side table for me as well as a full length mirror for our room. So we headed to Tampines MRT station to ride the free shuttle […]

Drills and Thrills

by

Today we had to climb down 14 floors worth of stairs for our fire drill. My legs were shaking by the time I got down. A good thing I had worn flats in preparation for this event. When this had happened back in P&G, I was wearing stilettos. No wait..that wasn’t during the fire drill. […]

How was Your Day?

by

Peter was telling Cate and me about his trip to the ministry of manpower last night. Our entire family was on its way to Fair Price to shop for groceries then. Suddenly he broke off in midsentence, saying, “But I shouldn’t be talking about this.” “Why not?” Cate and I asked. “Because I should be […]

Terrible F1 Accident

by

Ahehe. I know, I know. Corny! I did get a small glimpse of the F1 race, though. A very faraway glimpse from our office in Raffles Place, where I saw the extent of the roads blocked off for this event, and an up-close view in Suntec City, where I got to see them racing by, […]

My First Week

by

It was my first week at a new office. As most first weeks go, this one was quite boring, because there was nothing much to do yet. My boss took us out for lunch on my first day as a welcome to me, and we had Thai cuisine and home made ice cream for dessert. […]

Happier Birthday

by

I already had a very happy birthday, but it became even happier when I got this email from April just before I turned in for the night. This was the perfect way to end my day. Thanks so much for the effort, guys. Love you! ***** P&G’s never been the same without you… So we […]

Overday

by

Cate and I decide to invite ourselves for lunch at Gelle’s. They cooked lunch, we brought dessert and drinks. This is the first time we get to see their place which is located in the heart of Singapore’s red light district. The FURIOUS FIVE is reunited, and lunch gets extended to dinner. Can’t wait to […]

Someday

by

“I know what to get you for your birthday!” Chu tells me, a smiley icon at the end.“Ano?” I ask, pleased. He was coming over to Singapore next week, and since I don’t start work until September 15, I can be with him.“I’m not telling you,” He retorts.“Ok fine. I love surprises anyway,” I reply.“Malaki […]
