Rona and Rino in Singapore
My friend Rona and her brother Rino had a 5-day vacation in Singapore. They and Rodel stayed at our place and Rodel took a leave in order to tour them around. We went with them when our schedules permitted, accompanying them to the usual tourist spots like Clarke Quay and Sentosa as well as Pasir […]
At the Transition Point
Read this off the book Around the World in 80 Dates : “When moving overseas, there is a transition point at which the enthusiasm and excitement of being somewhere new has worn off but the routine sense of comfort and familiarity with your new home has yet to kick in. The result is homesickness.” I […]
A Creepy Love Story: Even Death Won’t Do Us Part
I’ve been reading this interesting non-fiction book entitled Around the World in 80 Dates by Jennifer Cox. The premise is about this woman who goes on a quest to find her soulmate by dating 80 men all over the world. I must say, I’m learning a lot of interesting stuff, like this tidbit: Verona was […]
Drippy Days Always Get Me Down
“Rainy days and Mondays always get me down,” goes the song of the Carpenters. I suppose that is true for most people, but maybe not “always.” I like rainy days days when I don’t need to be anywhere but at home. It’s so wonderful to sleep in when it’s raining outside. Otherwise, I am not […]
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. Gelle and Cate arrived after the ceremony was done, but still in time to load up on free-flowing donuts and […]
Keeping Kelly
She was near tears, I could tell. But she tried her best to keep them at bay. Maybe it was because she did not want to ruin the face that her makeup artist had spent hours on perfecting. But it would not have mattered even if she had ruined the makeup. It would not have […]
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 […]
The Singapore Flyer
My high school classmate Chi visited her sister AA, who is also working here. Yesterday, Cate and I rode the Singapore Flyer (the biggest observation wheel in the world) with them and Chi’s boyfriend Punch, who also came with her. I loved the view, but as usual, I wasn’t too crazy about the height. Damn […]
Climbers vs Jumpers
While emailing with a friend about her current heart stories, I was reminded of another friend’s blog when she was in a similar situation a long time ago. So I dug up her old blog and decided to post a couple of her entries here just because they give me mixed feelings of wanting to […]
