Why can’t I just take biogesic?
I’m down with a mild fever today. It was worse on the MRT ride this morning. I was shivering. I still went to work but checked up with a doctor in the late afternoon. Suddenly, he asked me what my religion was before giving advice about finding my prayer center. I told him I was experiencing insomnia. […]

A beef with broccoli kind of Sunday
I attempted to cook beef with broccoli earlier. I was following instructions from the venerable Panlasang Pinoy. I think I put too much soy sauce as it turned out salty. Or perhaps, I didn’t have much of an appetite today. I really miss my boyfriend. It sucks when you are used to doing EVERYTHING with […]

So this is what Compass Point looks like
It has a nautical theme! Compass Point is a mall in Sengkang. I have never been to Singapore’s northeast regions (Kovan, Hougang, Buangkok, Sengkang, and Punggol) until earlier today. I noticed that the connection between the MRT and the LRT is easier (unlike in Choa Chu Kang). Singapore’s northeast towns are stringed together by the purple […]

Rocking the boat in Sungei Punggol
We tried to catch the Filipino Dragon Boat Singapore (FDS) team compete at the SAVA Sprints International 2014 earlier. We didn’t get to catch them in action because I underestimated the time it took to get to Sengkang (my first time in Northeast Singapore). Lol. The boys (Urduja) won 1st and 2nd place in the […]

Where S$60.00 makes you a millionaire
My last trip abroad was Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam a few weeks back. I have not shared a single photo from that trip. I guess I’m doing a bit of soul-searching since my boyfriend left Singapore. The past few weeks have been a blur. I’m paying twice the rent these days which is preventing […]

1-for-1 frozen yogurt at The Mission Juice Co. on Fridays
Those frames make the “well done” yogurt cup look very Singaporean, eh? The yogurts are quite tasty. I had a petite serving (x2). The nice lady offered to put the 2nd one in the same cup since I was ordering on my own. SGD 3.50 for petite, SGD 5.00 for just right. (All 1-for-1 on […]

#tbt in Ifugao (2009)
Five years ago I was 24 and enjoying a work assignment (raket) in Ifugao with my college buddies. I miss the rice terraces and the little life lessons learnt while traveling with the group I was in. What life lessons are these? Enjoy what you have. Appreciate history and tradition. “There’s no point in living, if […]

Cary Agos is in jail!
What the hell? The Good Wife gets better each season. What’s Alicia going to do? He’s too pretty to be there.

The iPhone 6 is here! (Or, not.)
This is my second time to experience living in a country where the latest iPhone is released at the same time as the States. The first time was in 2012 when the iPhone 5 was released. I bought mine in Yishun along with a corporate subsidy thanks to my previous employer. With my 2-year StarHub […]
