Business. Relationships. Love. Life.
I’m back! Okay, I admit it… Sri Lanka was different from what I expected. I went in with a lot of misconceptions that were debunked as early as the first day. In fact, my real draw of Sri Lanka was that it was as messy as India, as historical and archeological as Cambodia and the […]

I am at the Changi Airport in Singapore as a stopover to Sri Lanka. Earlier this afternoon, had stopped over in the spanking new Hong Kong airport. Oh, I feel exhausted after having travelled to countries at the same time. The ironic thing is, wasn’t even aware of my Singapore stopover until we landed in […]

Love makes life complicated. I liked it when I was still single. I just didn’t give a f*ck about anybody else and went on my merry way. Obviously, I savored “me” time and even ate and watched movies in the cinema alone. I was happy. And then he came and swept me off my feet. […]

You can talk to him for hours and […]

Last night, I met a guy who intrigued the hell out of me. It’s quite rare to see these types anymore — that “devil may care attitude.” Admittedly, I was jealous of his ability to not care what everybody thinks about him. There emanates his confidence, his solid standing and high esteem. People from an […]

Beauty and sex appeal can be a curse. Back in the Philippines, there was a popular rap song when I was younger. The chorus rang, “Humanap ka ng panget at ibigin mo ng tunay (Find somebody ugly to love and love him/her truly).” The song’s message was, if you ever want happiness, you have to […]

Personally think that I’m not your typical fashionable chick, but there are some trends that I just can’t help but cringe. Blame it on Lindsay Lohan, the Ashley twins, the grungy Mischa Barton and even Lauren Conrad. One look and you’re like, “Eeeeeew, where did they get that?!” Here’s my top 5 “Bleh” fashion looks […]

Wow, haven’t I been posting multiple entries about my relationship instead of my usual feel-good, you-go-girl type of posts weeks ago. How fast things have changed, and how this bothers me. “You really like him a lot,” my girlfriend accused. “I’ve never seen you go gaga over a guy since I met you.” This was […]

I’ve read quite a few I-Need-Help-in-my-Relationship books before, but this one takes the cake. There’s only one chapter that I did not agree in, which was when Sherry instructs women to act like useless females and pretend as if we need a man to be our Superhero. Otherwise, I find her advice to be quite […]
