Disturbed by the Noise

Before you read this post, I’ll leave you this link. If ever I forget to add this link by the end of the post, you may go back up again and click on it. That’s how I feel about Trader and why I love him. The issue of the week is this — given that […]

Wanna Watch this Film!

Heard it’s a not-so-romantic love story that’s based on reality. Just loved reality-based movies! Wohoo! Too bad the showing’s not till August 27 (Thurs) in Hong Kong. But ooh, wanna watch, wanna watch! 🙂

Best. Chicken. Rice. Ever.

Okay, so people may pelt me with stones disagreeing, but I’ve just made the nicest discovery ever. On my quest to find half-bottles of wine around in my area, I came across this restaurant that’s a mere 10 minutes away from my place. As it turns out, my location offers a few more gems than […]

Foodfare

Sorry for the lack of updates. Dad, mom and a handful of my siblings came by to Hong Kong for a weeklong visit, so I’ve been quite busy parent sitting and ensuring that they have a nice time here.  My brothers went to the China Sourcing Fair last weekend that was held at the Asian […]

The Art of Successful Pickups

Today I met someone who I knew would be very good in picking up women. He made an impression on me and for all jilted men out there who thinks that picking up a woman is difficult, this is for you. “Women are just so predictable,” he said. “It’s not that difficult to get someone […]

One more time?

“So what are you doing this Friday?” he asked. “Am still deciding whether or not I’ll be going to this party,” I replied. “We’ll see.” “Well, if you’re not going to the party,” he continued. “Maybe I can take you out for drinks… and maybe dinner.” “Oh cool,” I answered. “I’m going to be fed!” (in […]

Breaking News: Homeless Bonita…

by January 2010. Oh my gosh, as if things cannot get any worse. My landlord sold my apartment without even consulting me! I accidentally bumped into the brand-new owner today in the elevators. “My parents bought it for me because I wanted to move out and they’d rather have me upstairs (they lived on the […]

Hot and Bothered

Let me be honest here, the scenario here stinks. People on the street are blaming those in Wallstreet for their problems. They think we must have sprouted horns or something. “It’s not our fault that the economy is sinking! It’s those $*#(@*#)@ bankers that’s at fault and they’ve gotten (*#@*&#@#@ millions of dollars in bonuses! Let […]

Where’s home?

My friend writes to me that he’s going back to Manila after a decade in New York. “My father is getting older and he needs someone to run the family business,” he explains. “Sayang naman (Such a pity) if nobody continues just because no one is there.” That’s true, though I think that one of […]

My Confession: I am a workaholic

Yes, I admit it. I am a workaholic. I come to the morning early in the morning at 7:30 am to join in the morning meeting, and my day continues on from there. Checking my mail which pops every few minutes. Tinkering on powerpoint to get that presentation right. Calling up contacts and asking them […]

Rising Up to Challenges

A warrior of the light is reliable.  He makes some mistakes, and sometimes considers himself to be more important than he really is.  But he does not lie. When people gather around the fire,  he talks to his male and female companions.  He knows that the words he utters will be kept in the memory […]

Saying goodbye to 2008 — and hello to 2009!

2008 passed by so fast — where has it gone?  In a way, it seems that 2008 was the transitional year.  It was the year when I deepened my expertise in project and relationship management, in addition to actually making a mark in the institution I worked for. It was also the year of many […]
