I’ll be posting photos of different Christmas trees here in Singapore. The photo below was taken at Vivo City. This huge Christmas tree had been there when we were on our way to Sentosa on November 1.
For years, I’ve been considering of getting a degree in Business Management or even more particularly, Business-Information Technology Management. In the present company, and I think for all IT companies, the only two options presented before us are: to become a techie expert or go into the management side. I have no plans of digging [...]
When I went home to the Philippines for Shaynna’s birthday, I took advantage of the airline website’s seat selector. I love being seated next to the window but I don’t want to be seated right next to the plane’s exit signs and doors. So I chose the seats right in front of the emergency exit [...]
Sentosa is like the playground of all the visitors and residents of Singapore. I’ve heard a lot about it and my friends kept bugging me to go there. I got curious, but I planned to go there only when Shaynna comes over for a visit. Fortunately, a college batchmate gave me a ticket to the [...]
It’s almost December. I am really anxious about this year’s Christmas. I’m excited because Shaynna is already 5 years old, so I could enjoy Christmas with her. But I don’t want January to come because I’m gonna be 30! I don’t even have a complete list of what I want to do before I turn [...]
When I went home last October, some of my bonding moments with Shaynna are spent doing arts: color books, spread Manila paperon the floor and doodle anything, paper crafts, etc. Then there was this set of watercolors that was a freebie when I bought her milk. As soon as we got home, she got down [...]
When I was a child, I loved Christmas because I love receiving gifts! I always look forward to what my parents prepared for me. Though due to financial constraints, I didn’t always receive gifts from my parents. But still, I was happy. My godparents live far from my hometown so I couldn’t collect gifts from [...]
Together with the other Filipinos in the office, we are having our Christmas dinner and exchanging of gifts Thursday next week. I’m so excited but I am still not sure what to give to my “manito”. I wish I had to give a gift to a female, at least I will have a wide range [...]
Tuesday morning, I awoke to Arashi’s “Wish”, my ringtone. It was my mother, and her worried voice clearly made me brace for another alarming news: my cousin and close friend had been in (birth) labor for three days! She was admitted to a public hospital in Ormoc City. The doctor advised to perform a C-section [...]
As I am approaching the 30′s (OMG!), I am trying very hard to start a healthy lifestyle. And yes, I am desperately trying to control weight gain. Here in Singapore, I no longer feel much pressure of losing weight because a lot of people are obviously bigger than me. There are times when I find [...]
I have suffered acne outbreak since I was in my teens. Some people said that acne disappears after giving birth. My daughter is now 5 years old, but I’m still struggling with my acne problem. I have shifted from one acne treatment cream to another. The only one proven to be very effective could only [...]
Singapore is very small. Perhaps, smaller than Lanao del Norte? During my first few weeks here, I thought that “malling” is all people could do on weekends. If one has the finances, then he might want to board a ferry to Indonesia, or take a bus to Malaysia. But ever since I’ve started tuning on [...]
