After watching The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, we walked outside so that Yves and Betchie could steal some smokes before we had dinner. That’s when I spotted two sunflowers slotted through the holes on the concrete tiles on the ground. They looked so bright and cheerful that Arlyn and I just had to take a […]
The Real Chinese New Year
My boss is a big believer of Feng Shui and apparently there is a feng shui master who calculated the real start of the Chinese New Year to be today. So he instructed the guys to make offerings to the fortune god. I wasn’t able to take a picture because I didn’t realize they were […]
Pineapple Juice Diet
According to my friend Kes, her secretary lost 17 pounds in a span of one month (she started dieting last January 5). Her diet? Lots and lots of Del Monte unsweetened pineapple juice and lesser rice than she normally ate. She apparently lost a lot of belly fat. I’m gonna try it. Wanna join me? […]
Brazo de Mercedes the Cat
I first saw him on the steps leading to the park last week, when Cate and I first hit the park for exercise. It was love at first sight. I bent down and said, “Aww he’s such a cutie!” It’s raining cats in Ang Mo Kio, but he was the first cat I saw with that […]
Wendy’s at Lau Pa Sat
A third reason to visit Lau Pa Sat: We discovered it only yesterday, thanks to a tip from Tyne and Monet. We couldn’t help ourselves and had to check it out today. I’ve always been a fan of their frosty back in the Philippines, so I tried out their twisted frosty with M&M’s. It’s made […]
Impromptu Pool Party
It was just supposed to be a simple task of picking up Tatsie and Cate’s family’s padala from Rodel in Pasir Ris. Then Rodel’s officemates had the idea of having an impromptu pool party in a Simei condo and we got invited as well, transforming an otherwise bland Saturday into a very enjoyable one. Sometimes, […]
Chipmunk Craze
It all started with one chipmunk. Then I got my own for Christmas, thanks to Chi and AA. Then Tyne and Monet were surprised when they both gave chipmunks to each other last Christmas. Then Rome, Caloy and April met my chipmunk Chinoop when they came here for a vacation and the next thing you […]
Got Marigold Milk?
I am not a fan of the taste of milk. I just force myself to drink it because I don’t want to end up with osteoporosis and also to help me lose weight. Yes, that’s right, milk helps you lose weight. I first read about it on Reader’s Digest, but it’s also in this article: […]
Spotted: a Squirrel
While at the park yesterday morning, April and I spotted a squirrel scurrying up the branches of a tree. a squirrel or is that my chipmunk? It’s just interesting to see animals you don’t normally chance upon in the urban jungle. I don’t remember ever seeing a squirrel in the Philippines, yet it has the […]
Ikea Love
Whenever I’m in Ikea, I get this sudden urge to settle down, get married, and have kids to have my own home to decorate with their pretty stuff. Last Saturday, I brought my guests there and I ended up buying just a couple of items, but they are very good buys. First up, the long-awaited […]
