I actually wrote this as an add-on to the ‘about’ page of my product review blog, VERY BEAUTY, but decided that it’s a bit too personal to post it there afterall. So, I moved it here. I will not lie; I love receiving freebies and samples. As much as I would like to join the ranks of beauty bloggers (or…

let it go
That was what my friend told me. It took some courage to let her know what was bothering me all this time. Yes, it was something that happened 10 years ago and one should “forgive and forget”, but I never received proper closure for it. Although I laughed and casually said that I was 年少无知 whenever I mentioned my Polytechnic time, the…
quality of healthcare
As most Singaporeans would know, there are different classes of rooms in hospitals which vary in price. Of course, the price for a night’s stay in a single room is more dear than a shared room. Besides the difference in price, what other things do people expect to be different for each class of room? What do you expect if…
blogshops
Welcome to the blogshop era where a new shop pops up online every few months…or even weeks. Well and good for people like me who enjoy shopping in the comfort of my home. Online shopping is so fast and easy. A few clicks of the mouse and I can get almost anything I want. Plenty of blogshops means more variety…
cheapskates and more
If you haven’t seen this yet, you have to. It’s about Carouhell Carousell, a mobile app where Singaporeans can easily sell their stuff. It started off as a nifty idea, at least that’s what I thought so. Tired of uploading pictures to my computer, this app provided the ease to just click, snap and post whatever I needed to sell…
hey, how about a meet up?
Inspired to write this entry rant after I saw a friend’s post on Facebook about a guy who met up with all his Facebook friends and took a photo of each meet up…or so I think. (I admit that I didn’t read the article. Was judging by the title of the article.) Talk about friends and meet ups. I wonder…
uncovering the memories
I’ve decided to slowly archive my blog entries from 2004-2005. I have them on Notepad, so I’m really just transferring them here. I laugh at my style of writing then. My blog was pretty much an account of the day-to-day happenings. But it’s the details that bring back great memories…the good and the bad. About the bad, there are just…
carry that weight
My friends were sharing this story on Facebook and when I read it, I knew I had to share it too. Columbia Spectator TIME Magazine You can also learn of Emma’s story and her project from this video: I think Emma is very brave to share about her traumatic experience using such a method. I agree with her that our…
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…
degeneration of our country?
I was happily catching up on my anime when I took a break and switched over to the Facebook tab. That’s when I saw this…this disgusting piece of news and now I cannot sit still without giving my two cents’ worth. *fumes* I studied Advertising, but even without that knowledge, I know for sure NOT to compare these two entirely…
