Donut Bite (a Halloween Special)
One of the pics we entered under Cate’s name in the Donut Empire photo challenge won a $50 donut voucher. Last night, we attended the halloween-themed awarding ceremony held in Tanjong Katong…or rather, I did.

Khatib Acoustic Night
“Pinay?” This was the question that started my journey to Khatib to join an acoustic night which turned out to be a birthday celebration of two Pinays. I brought Cate along with me, and we ended up having a lot of fun. We were clapping and screaming just as hard as the people who actually […]

Suddenly he broke off in midsentence, saying, “But I shouldn’t be talking about this.” “Why not?” Cate and I asked. “Because I should be […]
Terrible F1 Accident
Ahehe. I know, I know. Corny! I did get a small glimpse of the F1 race, though. A very faraway glimpse from our office in Raffles Place, where I saw the extent of the roads blocked off for this event, and an up-close view in Suntec City, where I got to see them racing by, […]
