Back from Hiatus
I just realized that it has been almost a year since my last post. One year! It has been that long! I really don’t know why I (or most people here) feel that time passes by so fast here in Singapore. I’ve been living here for more than a year already (OFW life…) It is [...]
My instrumentalist idols!
I belong to a musically-inclined family. My mom was a MAPE teacher (note: terror) and can really sing those high notes who can be compared to Pilita Corales. All my sisters played the piano and had performed at least a piano recital. My dad… well, he likes listening to the tune of Ol’ Blue Eyes, [...]
How to be GREEN
It’s not that type of “green” I’m talking about. This is about how we can help save Mother Earth… Eco-friendly greenness. We just celebrated the 40th Earth Day yesterday. Our world is in a greater danger than ever. We should do our part no matter how little or insignificant it may seem. Someone shared this [...]

(Mis)Adventure of the Day: 03-04-10
Fellow Rusher Rina aka Elen.P and her officemate Aileen went to Singapore for a 2-day training. Whenever I’m free, I’d take them around the city, eat variety of dishes, try the daring stuff, and of course, take a lot of pictures. Our pictures during their 5-day stay here can be seen here. But there was [...]
(Mis)Adventure of the Day: 02-19-10
I was in Bugis with my housemate enjoying our foodtrip of fishball, fried kway teow and water chestnut juice when we stumbled upon this sign on a store: Mmmmm… Buhok pa lang, amoy panggisa na. Sarap sa sinangag!
Welcome the Year of the Metal (and lonely) Tiger (that’s me)
Greeting everybody a festive Gong Xi Fa Cai / Kung Hei Fat Choi and a romantic Valentine’s day! Though it’s a little sad for me because my beautiful fianceé is not with me to celebrate not just the day of hearts but our 4th anniversary! (how cheesy can you get). It could have been a [...]
Singapore Life and the first ever International EB.
I am now on my 3rd week living here in Singapore and so far I am getting the hang of it. Even though I haven’t started working yet, I’m enjoying here. Strictly following my budget, I seldom eat out or splurge on something unnecessary. I’ll do that when I start earning my paycheck here. I [...]
The Year that was 2009.
This post is going to be short, sweet, and simple. The year 2009 was a splendid year for me. It was a year of big changes and unexpected twists and turns. I’ve met new people. Most were fellow Rushers like me. But of the countless people I’ve acquainted, only a few have been promoted to [...]
One month
ONE MONTH… …after I proposed to my fiancée; we have started preparing for the wedding. We have already paid to book the church and reception venue even though our wedding date is more than a year away. The stress of wedding preparation has started to kick in. We’ve researched gown designs, chose our motiff, scoured [...]
