I found my Holy Grail hair when I got a digital perm three years ago. I know it’s what suits me best, but the problem is that perming makes my hair look really dry, so I got my last perm last December 2011 and resorted to manually curling my hair instead, and it actually looks […]

Django Unchained {Movie Review}
I know this movie has been shown in other countries months ago, but for some reason it only opened in Singapore cinemas last Thursday, so I only got to watch it yesterday. When I first heard about this movie, I got curious about it because I enjoyed Tarantino-directed films Kill Bill and Inglorious Basterds and […]
Medz @ Orchard Central {Foodee}
Last Saturday, I met up with Maya and Gay. Another friend of ours had recommended this place called Medz in Orchard Central, saying that it was like a Mediterranean Marche but cheaper. Now we’re all huge fans of Marche and always game to try something new, so we decided to go there for lunch. When […]
Oasis in the (Changi) City
Last week, Mildred and I accidentally discovered an oasis in the middle of the city. Changi City Point, that is. We were on our way home after work when we realized we hadn’t had dinner yet and decided to go for a quick bite to satiate our aching tummies. So we stopped by the aforementioned […]
Pan de Manila Chocolate con Leche
Hello! It’s Filipino Food Friday once again! When Gelle went to the Philippines last time, she met up with our friends Chi and Ngangi in Tagaytay. We’re all close friends, so I was very jealous, especially when I read Ngangi’s blog about it. Tse! LOL. But I got my consuelo de bobo (a fool’s consolation) in the […]
The Stranger and My Necklace
An amusing thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. We were on our way to Starz Restaurant when the woman in front of me, a total stranger, suddenly stopped me and asked: “Where did you buy that necklace?” She was referring to this necklace “Umm… it was in…” I struggled to answer because I […]
Wedding Entourage Rules
While I was out for lunch with some friends last time, one of us asked the rest about what the role of maid of honor entailed as she was going to be one for her sister’s wedding. So we told her that she had to literally be the bride’s maid and I kept on emphasizing […]
From Half Alive to a Hundred Percent
Yesterday morning when my former boss came across me in the pantry, she asked: “Why do you look half alive?” Haha, what a question. I have to admit that I was amazed at her spot-on observation. It’s either she knows me so well or I really did look that terrible. See, the night before yesterday, […]
{Fab Finds} Macbook Keyboard Decals
I hate white things because they get dirty so easily. That’s why I chose the black iphone both times I bought them (3gs and 4s), even though most people prefer white. But when I had to buy a macbook four years ago, I opted to buy white because it was the cheapest macbook available. I […]
Suck It, Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek {Book Review}
I like Olivia Munn on the TV show The Newsroom, so when I saw that she had a book with a catchy title, I decided to check it out. It makes for fun light reading, sort of like reading a series of blogs. And just like a blog, there are some chapters that are interesting or […]
