Our beach date was not going as planned. “It’s about to rain,” he pointed out, gesturing at the dark clouds. “Can’t you ask Mr. Sun to keep it at bay?” I pleaded. “You’re close, right?” I was referring to the fact that part of his name literally meant the word sun. “Yes, and he told […]

Spotted: Leopard Print Stockings
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}
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
“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. […]

{Throwback Thursdays} The Wind Beneath My Wings
This is a photo of me as a baby. My mom is holding me up and hiding behind me, so that I supposedly could stand on my own. It made me realize that this photo is the perfect backdrop for a song that suits her. Wind Beneath My Wings It must have been cold there […]
4-Hour Brunch in McDo or That Time When We Almost went to Malaysia
My friend Maya said she had never been to Johor Bahru, Malaysia, which is the nearest “abroad” you can get to outside of Singapore, being just at the border. It’s so near that you only have to take a bus to get there and it will only cost you S$2 and about an hour of […]
Hand-Held Monopod
If you love to take photographs, like I do, you know that sometimes you need the help of tripods especially if you want yourself captured in the pictures (and none of your friends have the generosity to ask if you want your picture taken after you had just taken the lovely picture of them, the […]
Halalan 2013
Today is election day in the Philippines but I already voted because I am an OFW (Overseas Filipino Worker) and we have a different schedule in our embassy. I went with my friends Yves and Betchie. Our voter’s registration last 2009 was still valid, so we headed to the embassy last Saturday to exercise our […]
Dancing in the Rain
I’m sure you’ve noticed my spanking brand new header picture and you’re dying to know the story behind it. The year was 2012, the year when the world was supposed to end. The place was Phuket. I was on a vacation with my Philippine-based friends Kes and Drew, and on our second day, we decided […]
