Nokia Stories
“Don’t buy a Samsung phone,” my friend cautioned us over lunch one day. “My husband dropped his, and its screen got shattered.” “Did he drop it from a high place?” I wondered. “No, he was just standing and it slipped from his grasp.” “Eeps!

{Letters & Links} Birthdays, Christmas Cards, & Fave TV Shows
Dear Dred, Whenever you gush that you are my #1 fan, I feel what Sherlock must feel towards John. Mostly surprise at the admiration, but also a deep gratitude that I don’t quite know how to show. Like Sherlock, I have a problem with physically showing my emotions. I always prefer to hide behind the […]

{Letters and Links} New Domain, Christmas Cards, & Food Coma
Dear Readers, Notice anything new? What do you think of my new domain? I actually owned deecoded.com a couple years ago but I stupidly gave it up when I thought I wouldn’t really blog that much anymore, so now if I want it back I have to pay $400+ for it because it has become […]
{Expat Diaries} Lost in Translation
One of the biggest struggles of a new expat has got to be conversation. I’m lucky that I moved to a country where most people can speak English fluently (just like the Philippines, I’d like to point out), but they have a different accent compared to ours, so it still wasn’t easy. I clearly remember […]
