Giordano warehouse sale where you could buy two shirts for 5SGD, toys warehouse sale, and other brands sale keep on popping up everywhere in Singapore. Then starting today until Sunday, there is another electronics sale. From what I’ve heard from my friend who read the paper today, you could even buy hairdryer for just 5SGD, [...]
Even before I arrived in Singapore, this wonderful website called gothere.sg has helped me a lot. Because of this, I was able to find an apartment that is so close to the office. Then there’s this website hungrygowhere.com. The domain name says it all. Restaurants information just a few clicks away. Recently, I came across [...]
The opening of Sentosa’s Universal Studios is fast approaching. Construction is still in full swing but when I went there last November, the roller coaster is already finished. For us staying here in Singapore, we no longer need to get one of those orlando vacations to enjoy what Universal Studios has to offer. Though, the [...]
In my iGoogle screen, I still keep the weather forecasts of places that concerns me, including Osaka. I was very surprised to see Osaka getting up to -11C. At this time of the year? When I was there, even at the peak of winter, the temperature in Osaka didn’t drop below -3C. I scrolled down [...]
It’s been a while since I’ve last put up the Christmas tree at home. In fact, we’d never put up a Christmas for more than 5 years. Because of Shaynna and Kiera, my 2-year old niece, I bugged my mother until she gave in. Two weeks ago, Shaynna happily told me over the phone that [...]
On my second day here in Singapore, I was on my way to my pre-employment medical checkup when an insurance agent. Having learned from personal experience, I want to make sure that my family won’t be in financial difficulty if something happens to. I’ve always wanted to get a good social security disability insurance, life [...]
I’ve been hooked to the current season of Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) since it started on October 4th. I am a fan of Melai, the sassiest housemate. There was even a time when I stay up until 3AM because the activities started at 1AM! Seems like all the things I got from my PBB and [...]
Weeks ago, I found this article in Marie Claire website entitled “Four weeks to a better body”. The article contains different exercise regime from Monday-Friday, good fat burners in all areas. You may also spend two days effort on those areas you want to have better shape. Was it effective? I wouldn’t know. I’ve only [...]
It’s almost Christmas! Many people are going to colder places to experience “white Christmas”. Others prefer something like myrtle beach vacation rentals. In my case, nothing could contain my happiness and excitement to go home to the Philippines. I’ve spent the last three Christmas seasons in Japan. Christmas day there is a work day. To [...]
Preferences do change. When I was in highschool, I prefer to act more feminine. I love what most girls want: jewelries. Then I entered the university. Exposed to male-dominated student population, it is hard not to act a bit tough. So I shed off some of the things I liked. From then on, I took [...]
I wished to at least change the template of this blog for its 3rd anniversary. But doing that is a bit difficult because I’m using a really old version of WordPress. So, I need to migrate to newer version to change into a cooler look. It all comes down to my laptop computer . I’ve [...]
I wonder if Singapore got the name Palawan Beach from the Philippines’ Palawan Island. It’s not as beautiful as “the Palawan” in the Philippines, but it’s a nice place to hang out on weekends. There’s a hawker/food court in there and I’ve tried out one Singaporean dish: Oyster egg. It’s not really made from oyster [...]
