Business. Relationships. Love. Life.
It was the first time in my entire life that I was made to wait for almost an hour in the restaurant before the person appeared for dinner. We have set up our dinner appointment at 7:30 pm, moved it to 8:00 pm, and it was around 8:50 pm till my friend showed up. Goodness […]

My friend and I ordered the Nitti’s Omelette (NT$280) which […]

After weeks of waiting since nobody wanted to see it, finally got to watch “Babel” tonight. My friend’s verdict after the lights came on again: “Ummm… did you get the story?” My verdict: I like it. Sure, it wasn’t as entertaining as “Blood Diamond” which was such an adrenalin rush and though gory, fun to […]

Do you know how it feels when you’re starting a marathon? You’re all pumped up and ready to go, and yet you unconsciously wince at the challenges that lie ahead. You see, a full length marathon — 42.2 km is not a piece of cake even to the best of us. Though Taipei will hold […]

Tonight, I had a luscious dinner at one of the most expensive French restaurants in the city. At least NT$3,300 a pop + 10% tax in a meal that lasted almost 4-hours, and serving a supposedly delicious chef’s specialty, La Petite is so famous that clients from Singapore fly all the way to Taipei just […]

To make a point, Sony painted an entire apartment complex… And released 250,000 balls (I kid you not) down the streets of San Francisco. I don’t get the entirety of the message, but I can definitely appreciate it. Its beauty lies in its simplicity. And you appreciate it even more as you imagine how much […]

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 […]

I sometimes wonder what’s it like if I didn’t come to Taiwan. Would life would’ve been any different? My guess is, thanks to my Atenean degree and my rich leadership background, it would’ve been possible for me to be employed in some of the leading multinationals in the Philippines. In fact, a day after I […]
