Business. Relationships. Love. Life.
Despite the rain, evenings at home are made so much better with some flowers on the table, some nice smells, and this: Amazing what a few touches from Ikea and other cheap stuff can do to your mood! My vase from the other day only cost me HKD10 from Jusco (Hong Kong’s HKD10 store) while […]

Right below my building is a wet market. Everyday going to work, I always pass through it without thought. I was already used to the people and the smell so nothing really fazed me. Today however, when I was on my way home, I saw a lone man sitting right by his stall. It was […]

Apologies to all the Apple fans out there, but what the hell is going on with your products? Yes, I do appreciate the convenient touch-screen screen, the ability to download thousands of apps for free to my device and your very cute photo-attach-to-my-contact capability.

Though I’m super sad that I’ll soon be moving out of my lovely apartment, I enjoy the last few days of it by reminiscing of all the memories I’ve had of this place in the past. What’s more, thanks to my friend JM whom I’ve met in my Singapore trip, I’ve decided to freshen the […]

I’ve just finished watching An Education starring the upcomer, Academy-nominated young actress Carey Mulligan, and the suave charming Peter Sarsgaard. It was such a pleasure to watch, and really hits the bulls eye on the type of education we’d like and hope to have. Are we to pursue education in the real world, or be […]

I came home Sunday discovering that my house has been broken into. The damages were my Sony Vaio Laptop, some cash and jewelry. Irreplaceable are the gazillion of photos stored in my laptop as well as my almost finished MBA application essays. Also lost was my sense of security in my apartment — what would’ve […]

Trader asked me what my New Year’s resolutions are. His were to sleep earlier, play less video games and read more books. He’s just started getting addicted to video games and wanted to curb this time-wasting endeavor. “To be better than I was last year,” I told him. “Am not the type of person to make […]

It’s really amazing to see how people appreciate your work at year’s end. At least, after months of hard labour, you see that people are grateful for all the assistance you’ve extended to them. This is what made my day… A huge ass hamper from one of out biggest clients. Been smiling as I’ve lugged […]

As many of you know, I’ve always wanted an MBA. Ever since. It’s been my dream ever since I was in college, but I figured that I had to work 2 years or so to be eligible for the program. However, things happen as they always do. I was transferred to Taiwan to study Mandarin. […]

Last year, my parents told me that I can now officially date. Now turning 29, I’m dating this really nice guy, relocated to a new country and are celebrating by parent-sitting this week. My dad is constantly in my back about Trader. “Can he support you? Maybe I’ll need to support him?” He takes great […]

What I learned after our fourth month anniversary with Trader? 1) Relationships are already hard enough. Happy to admit that I’m more than a handful to be a boyfriend too, and can be over-annoying sometimes. Hence, it’s really important that you find someone who really really loves you, and who’ll make an effort to stand […]

Curiosity got better of me and I met Ex#3 this week for afternoon tea. Trying his best to be the understanding boyfriend, Tader knows about it and tells me that it’s okay so long as it’s in a public place with tons of people. Ex#3 looks as good as ever, and as unavailable as I’ve […]
