Three more days and I’ll be on a plane home. But since a few weeks ago, I’ve been forcing myself to wake up early but failed. I’m in vacation mode already! But, this means frequent cab ride to the office every morning. Anyway, I’ve encountered two types of drivers: silent and chatty. One time, the [...]
I couldn’t find a photo of my bicycle here in Singapore. Even if I want to take one, I can no longer do that… because my beloved yet seldom used bicycle got stolen a few days ago! I had to place it in one of the bicycle racks in the ground level of our apartment [...]
These past few weeks, I’ve been craving for Japanese dishes. Fortunately, there’s Manpuku near my place. Unfortunately, because it is so accessible, I’ve been eating a lot and gained weight! Here’s my favorite, thanks to a friend who recommended this to me. I’m wary of trying out Japanese food here in Singapore, having been disappointed [...]
“Orchidaceae, usually referred to as the Orchid family, is a morphologically diverse and widespread family of monocots in the order Asparagales. It is currently believed to be the largest family of flowering plants with between 21,950 and 26,049 currently accepted species, found in 880 genera.” – from Wikipedia Before writing this post, I never knew [...]
Singapore Expo, where many huge sales happen, is only a few bus stops away from my place. I often visit their website to check the events, specifically department store sale, I.T. sale, and most importantly, book sale! The last one was held a few days ago. I stayed there for an hour and it was [...]
I live in a part of Singapore where all I could see are HDB apartment buildings. But then I have always loved taking photos of the sky and buildings. I think I wouldn’t get bored taking photos and posting what I can see from the apartment over and over again. In my eyes, skies and [...]
In my desperate attempt to start leading a healthy life, I became a member of an all-ladies gym but I only went there for the first few months. I love breaking a lot of sweat but after the incident where I passed out, I decided that gym wasn’t for me. I even gained 2 kilograms [...]
NO NO… I’m far from getting married. I don’t even have someone who can give me a ring but I am fascinated with rings. I’m not really into jewelries but one of the artcarved rings caught my attention. I think this one’s really pretty: This brought me to the experience I had two months ago. [...]
It’s been almost two weeks since my last post! It has been really crazy at work that I often work from home. Using my brain for more than 12 hours a day has even taken out the inspiration to write something here. The worse thing is I was not able to occasionally upload my entries [...]
My place (and workplace) is only a few bus stops from the Changi Airport. When I feel really bored from just staying at home, I sometimes go there to read, have a cup of coffee and window shop. Every time I go there, I look forward to taking photos of the decorations, which they change [...]
The ramen houses here in Singapore that serve really delicious ramen is far from my place. I don’t want to spend 13SGD and still be unsatisfied. Finally, I found a Chinese substitute for ramen: Yum-yan! Every food court has a stall that serves yum-yan. Still, not all serve delicious yum-yan. But at least there’s one [...]
There are only a few people who regularly use bicycles here in Singapore. Could be due to the warm weather or the cheap and really convenient public transportation. Bus stops are really close to the apartment buildings and bus ride is cheap, so why exert a lot of effort and a lot sweat? I got [...]
