I’m the kind of girl who believes in the traditional view that all girls must learn to cook, sew and housekeep. Well, if you think about it, you’ll be pretty much self-sufficient if you can do all three. Except I’m not particularly a good cook and I can’t sew much. I used to be the kind that would burn down…

30 day song challenge day 09: song i can dance to
Day 09 — A song that you can dance to I’ll admit that I can’t dance for nuts. Unfortunately, I was not born with dancing 细胞。Instead, I learnt the hand actions to some songs like Perfume’s “My Color” and Ayumi Hamasaki’s “Trauma”. But if I really wanted to dance to a song, I’ll choose AKB48’s “恋するフォーチュンクッキー” (Koisuru Fortune Cookie). It’s…
30 day song challenge day 08: song that i know all the words to
Day 08 — A song that you know all the words to I probably know the lyrics to a couple of English songs, but somehow the first song I thought of was Perfume’s “My Color”. I swear this is a Japanese song with the easiest lyrics to remember by heart. There’s only one verse and chorus. The chorus just repeats…
30 day song challenge day 07: song that reminds you of an event
It has been some time since I did this. Continuing where I left off… Day 07 — A song that reminds you of a certain event ZONE’s “HANABI ～君がいた夏～” (HANABI ~Kimi ga Ita Natsu) brings back great memories of J-Net fashion show especially the one in Fall 2007. It was my first year taking part in the fashion show and I…

SkinnyMint teatox programme
Tadaa! I’ve completed the 28-day SkinnyMint teatox programme. There are tons of testimonials on the website but before you get bought into it, you must know that the product works differently for different people. Do not treat this like some miracle slimming medicine. As stated on the website, you still need regular exercise and good sleeping/eating habits. My experience with the…
devils and realist
Just completed 魔界王子 (Makai Ouji): Devils and Realist. I thought the author/manga artist was rather creative in using characters from heaven and hell to spin a story. While there’s the usual power struggle between both factions, there’s a twist to the qualities of the characters. Some devils are portrayed as kind while an angel is portrayed as one with negative qualities.…
married life
Was inspired to write this entry after a comment on a friend’s wedding photos. It’s always the same pattern of questions after someone gets married. How’s married life? When are you gonna have children? I used to laugh when someone asked me the first question, simply because there is no difference after I got married and moved into our own…
love vs. hate
Powerful words from a powerful man. As fights go on between Israelis and Palestinians, let’s be reminded that… No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more…
night cleansing
Am sipping the Night Cleanse tea (second brew) as I write this post. Was expecting the ginger taste to be really strong, but it’s surprisingly quite mild. The peppermint taste is also not too strong and rather calming. I only tasted the ginger when I reached the bottom of the cup. Hope it calms the achy feeling I got in…
