2023 was the year of revenge travel and reunions for me! I did a lot of stuff inside Hong Kong, too, including events I held as an official Girl Gone International host.
2020 Highlights
A lot of people will look at this year as the year when nothing happened, but as a friend reminded me in the Christmas card she sent me, I actually accomplished a lot of things this year. Travel – I’m glad I had a chance to travel to El Nido, Palawan on the first of […]
2019 Highlights
In a few hours, 2019 will wrap up and 2020 – a new decade – will be upon us. Oh my, where did the time go? Here are the highlights of my year: Travel I was a wedding singer for my friend Maybelle’s wedding in Tagaytay, Philippines and met up with friends while there. I […]
Highlights of 2016
2016 has been a pretty crazy year for the world in general, thanks to a lot of “I did not see that coming” moments. I wouldn’t say my 2016 was bad, though. It wasn’t one of my most memorable years ever, certainly not up there with 2008 (when I moved to Singapore) or 2014 (when […]

2014, I Love You, Goodbye
So it’s that time of year again. I’ll jump right in, okay? Okay. I started 2014 on an optimistic note. The chosen Pantone color of the year was a shade of my favorite color, so I assumed that it MUST be a sign that it was going to be a good year for me, right? […]

Goodbye 2012, Hello 2013
I started off 2012 with so much optimism that it would be legen – wait for it – dary, but unfortunately, it did not measure up to my expectations at all and was, in fact, a downright dud. It wasn’t too terrible, definitely nothing that would compare to my 2009, thank God, but it was […]
Goodbye 2011
So another year is winding down to a close and we are gearing up for the last year before the world will end… if we believe those Mayans, anyway. My 2011 was awesome, high up on my list of favorite years. Here’s a recap of what happened: – I got my own room again after […]
Yearend Recap 2010
My former boss, David, who is a devout believer of Feng Shui and chinese astrology, gave me a prediction earlier this year. He said that dogs (I was born on the year of the dog) suffered last year but this time around, their luck would pick up. He was absolutely right. 2009 was the worst […]
