2016 was a very memorable year, with all the crazy things that happened – Brexit, Trump, Harambe, etc. That’s a good thing for me, because it will make it easier to remember when my nephew was born. Someday, when I’m out Christmas shopping and trying to remember if a particular toy is age-appropriate for him, […]
LZ Christmas Dinner @ Cafe Melba
I had Christmas dinner with my hometown friends at a lovely child-friendly cafe in the east last night. They had it beautifully decorated for Christmas with a huge Christmas tree complete with Christmas songs blasting from the speakers. There was a lot of space for kids to run around. Karl (Carlo and Kris’s kid) happily […]
Pokemon Go Christmas @ Changi Airport
This morning, my friend Armar mentioned that there was a Pikachu parade at Changi Airport. It was too late for me to catch the event because it happened at 11am, but it wasn’t too late to catch the Pokemon Go Christmas installations, so I told my teammates Yan Ming and Guohao that we had to […]

Today we Filipino friends had a Christmas slash New Year lunch at Calle Real, a revamped Filipino restaurant near our office in Changi Business Park.

We had two Christmas dinners, but before that, we did a belated birthday surprise for our VP Evelyn on December 15, on her first day back from vacation. We asked Ivan and Gabriel (guys from another […]
Yogi Secret Santa
Che, who I first knew as Indieberries but who is now also known as Indieyogalife, organized a gift swap called Yogi Secret Santa. It was unlike other international gift swaps I had ever done before. Most of those usually reveal both gifter and giftee (I know, these sound wrong but you know what I mean, […]
Christmas Pranks
It’s December! That most magical, my favourite time of year. Apparently, it’s also the time of year when you light-bomb your boss’s desk. 😜 My teammate GH brought in the Christmas lights he used for his creative marriage proposal earlier this year, and we decided to prank our boss who was on half day leave. I got […]
Have Yourself a Senti Little Christmas
My mom just posted a video of a girl named Daniela Andrade singing a Christmas song. She has such a great voice and she has set up the perfect backdrop of Christmas lights and an adorable dog who looks just like our family dog Pepsi who died many years ago. The whole thing just made […]
