My brother and I aren’t doing well. We just came off from a testy episode where my brother already cursed me to the noon, with the exception of “SOB” since that would mean cursing his/our own mother. As you can imagine, we are not yet in speaking terms. I really don’t understand him. Over the […]

Irrefutable fact: My boyfriend has brought in a new category of products to the Philippines. Before he brought it in, that product was non-existent.

Three years into her relationship, the girlfriend simply started to let go. She would wear flip-flops to the office. Started relaxing on that diet and gained weight here and there. Got fat.

For someone I’ve been talking to in a daily basis for 2.5 years, just going cold turkey is kinda tough. You for moments wonder what’s going on with them. Luckily, I haven’t stopped living my life after I got into the relationship so it’s not as bad as it could’ve been if we spent all […]

This may have been the smartest suggestion of the week: as we homesick pups are starting to miss our Asian fare, we’ve decided to head over to London’s Chinatown for some “authentic” (cough, cough) Chinese food.
