It was St. Patrick’s Day last Monday, and in some countries, people celebrate that by getting buzzed. I didn’t do that, but I’d like to talk about the funniest things I have done while I was drunk. (1) I drunk-dialled my ex, and when he hung up on me, I yelled “Why won’t you talk […]
7 Things That Make Me Cry
I am a ridiculous lady who has the shallowest pool of tears in all of humankind. Okay, maybe that’s a tad exaggerated. But I bet if we ranked everyone, I would be in the upper 10th percentile. SERIAL WEEPER I cry very easily. I have been known to cry in public vehicles while reading articles […]
On Letting Go
The last two episodes of How I Met Your Mother have both been about the titular couple letting go of their greatest loves lost so that they can finally move on and find the love they deserve – each other. The mother’s story is one of my most favorite episodes in the entire series. I […]
Lettr: Personalized Postcards

And though getting dumped hurts whatever time of year it may happen, I think it’s even more painful when it happens right before the most […]

7 Ways to Save Money
“Dee, let’s be thrifty buddies, okay?” my roommate suddenly pleaded with me last night. “I need to save money for my trip.” “Okay, sure!” I replied, because saving money is actually on my list of new year’s resolutions this year. I also want to save enough money to go on a trip outside Asia soon. […]
The Dog’s Horoscope and Peach Blossom Luck
The biggest holiday in Singapore is coming up next week – Chinese New Year. Malls and stores are all decked out in Chinese New Year decors and peddling mandarins, lucky charms, and red underwear (for good luck).
