“So, have you thought about what to name your baby?” I asked my pregnant friend Kes a few months ago. “I haven’t decided on it, yet,” she replied. “But I was thinking of coming up with a name that was a combination of my parents’ names, my husband’s and my own.” “Well, as long as […]
I Couldn’t Have Imagined How Good My Life Would Get
The Big Bang Theory is one of my favorite TV shows. I can always count on it to make me laugh out loud literally. But a few weeks ago, they had an episode that made me tear up, not from laughter, but from being touched. This was when Howard decided to celebrate the anniversary of […]
{Dating Diaries} a Boy in a Bar part 2
To all the people who have been waiting for this sequel, I am sorry. I did not mean to make you wait this long, seriously, I am no torturer like Moffat. I meant to continue immediately but I got distracted by life and a bunch of things, so… Meanwhile, to those who have no idea […]
{Expat Diaries} Lost in Translation
One of the biggest struggles of a new expat has got to be conversation. I’m lucky that I moved to a country where most people can speak English fluently (just like the Philippines, I’d like to point out), but they have a different accent compared to ours, so it still wasn’t easy. I clearly remember […]
Dating Diaries: a Boy in a Bar
Kids, this is NOT the story of how I met your father. (But funnily, it is somehow the story of how I met How I Met Your Mother.) To tell this story well, I need to take a page from how Ted Mosby does it and start from the very beginning, which means I will have […]
Ivy’s Farewell @ K Box Karaoke
Kids, this is the funny story of how I met Ivy. We were batch mates, meaning we started work on the same day which was the first day of a week-long training session. On said day, we both snuck out to the sandwich shop during break time to grab some grub. When I saw the […]
A Solo Gold Class Cinema Experience (Review)
Last Friday night, I found out that I needed to pick up my camera from Canon on Saturday, so since I was going all the way to Vivo City anyway, might as well make the most of my trip, right? A movie was definitely in order, and I had just the movie in mind – Gravity. […]
{Letters} How Singapore Got Its Name + What IOS7 Taught Me
Dear Nikki, Tada!!! Here is the letter you requested! I still can’t get over the fact that you actually asked me to give you a letter and hand it to our colleague to hand to you when she flies to Manila next week! I mean… who does that these days?? LOL. Anyway… I was going […]
{Letters} On Death and Birth
Dear Hairdryer, I knew there was something wrong when I used you this morning and you didn’t sound quite right. Sure enough, you shuddered to a halt and when you refused to start again, it made me realize that you had served me well for over 7 years and needed to retire. I can still […]
Chippy British Takeaway {Foodee}
Last Friday night I left the office with my colleagues Jen and Gracia. While on the bus, we suddenly decided to drop by Tampines mall for a quick dinner. That was the plan, anyway, but knowing how girls are, we ended up having a lot of detours along the way. Gracia bought pants from a […]
