Business. Relationships. Love. Life.
Sorry, but it’s been a so-so week for this Taipei blogger. Blame it on the huge typhoon that hit our poor city yesterday, holing me back home for the entire day — probably the longest I’ve stayed at home ever since I arrived in Taiwan! Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever […]

After a day of studying, I headed to Barcode for BC’s birthday. Imagine my pleasant surprise when I saw that the place was absolutely packed, and no wonder — incidentally, 4 of my friends were celebrating their birthday last night! The place was flowing with booze, cigars and crazy antics by wild Librans who felt […]

My life should be changing once again. Instead of studying, I’ve spent yesterday in a coffeeshop chatting on what may seem to be one of the most important conversations I may have in my life. “Decide,” my friend said. “And decide now. Otherwise, we’d still have the same ol’ conversation this December and 5 years […]

Ate at my favorite Taipei restaurant — Ruth’s Chris, finishing a 12-oz. steak: Beautiful, just beautiful. Check out the creamed spinach, mashed potatoes with onions and garlic mushrooms on the side. Unfortunately, the 12-oz. is just too darn much, so after visiting my friend at La Giara and tasting their delish almond cake dessert (so […]

Last weekend was just a marathon! On Saturday, I met up with my friend SC, for an early brunch at the now-famous Diner at Rui-An Road. The last time I was there, it newly-opened and I remember that their prices were good, and the food okay. It lacked the big portion sizes of Carnegies that […]

There’s so much that I’ve done, yet so little I’ve written about. Guess, every person only has 24 hours a day, and unfortunately for me, I’ve maximized these hours to the limit. For example, for today, I’ve only had around 3-4 hours of sleep, as my friend calls me up at freaking 2:00am in the […]

This is exactly how I feel right now: So funny, yet so true. Have been working non-stop in the past couple f days ever since I came back from my vacation. Heck, I can’t even update you guys on what’s been happening over the past few days — just a few bits and that. 🙁 […]

Enough is enough. I’ve reached the end of the line with all the partying. My lil brother who never gets out because my daddy’s super strict will kill me for saying this, but too much partying is truly bad for your health. As I was walking home alone once again last night after a night […]

Wishing you all a Happy New 2007! Bravely faced the crazy Taiwanese crowd milling and sitting around the 101 area and trudged to the Tavern to spend New Year’s Eve with Top-Climber and friends! Crazy fun! 😀 Had a few Smirnoff Ice Reds and a delish B-52 which got me real tipsy, then watched the […]

Phew, it’s been such a bizzy weekend that I don’t even know where to start. We held our company party at Agora Garden Hotel with the theme of “Tai-Ke” last Friday. It was pretty fun, and didn’t really win the NT$50,000 grand prize (though happy that somebody in our department did), but heck, I was […]

What did I do last weekend? Well, aside from the eat-all-you-can Korean BBQ dinner and social party at the Shannon that evening, after an hour’s sleep, went to Yangming Mountain to check out the sunrise and the hot springs… Drove across the North Coast to see the eroded rocks in Yeliu… Checked out the morning […]

Well, just to finish my report on my exciting/relaxing weekend, on Friday, I had a nice dinner at this divine Japanese restaurant called Peony Japanese Cuisine at Hsin-Yi Road, just at the back of Taipei 101. The ambience was great, and even the tableware was impressive, made out of stone and rock. The food was […]
