Last March 14, Saturday, I was fortunate enough to attend the Salcedo Auction‘s Important Philippine Art Auction that was held at the NEX Tower. There were around 202 items that were to be auctioned, and many of the works of the great masters were up for auction. My father was a great lover of art, […]
Unbeknownst to me, my husband is a certified dork and loves Transformers, Gundam and Lego. This is our personal collection at home: To Get There Go to Yau Ma Tei station and come out at Exit D Waterloo. Turn right and cross the road once you exit the station. Yes, this corner. Cross the road. […]
Since fiancee and I met online, I found it fitting to actually try to order my wedding dress online. Unlike many brides who have their couturier design their gowns from scratch, I wanted to see the final look and feel of my dress beforehand. I didn’t want to be one of those brides who take the […]
Most people don’t give Taipei a lot of credit preferring mostly to spend their vacations in Hong Kong or Singapore. However, having stayed in these countries for prolonged periods, I still find Taipei to be the best travel destination in terms of food, sights, culture, people, and value for money. It’s only in Taipei where […]
Post our finals, we MBA students like to destress. I did my destressing by doing some retail therapy. Fortunately (or unfortunately), Steve Madden is having a sale, and I purchased these mile-high clogs for HKD399 (Original price: HKD950). Now, us women are crazy. We would buy something at half price even though it’s darn expensive […]
My blog is often so text-heavy, you feel that you’re reading the encyclopedia (zzzzzz…). I often wonder how most of you can take it. Hence, here’s some photos of my observations on my 3-week stay so far in Hong Kong: 1) Desserts here are hai-hao (so so). Though they look oh-so-yummy, desserts here pale in […]
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 […]
…then I’m royally screwed. 🙁 As you already know, I need to upgrade to a new laptop because 1) mine is 4 years old and it’s time for a change, and 2) unfortunately, I have to make the change fast because it has less than 1 GB of hard disk left (even worse than the […]
Feeling a bit blue, I need to pop myself happy a bit. And what better to do than to make a slightly more narcissistic post than before? 🙂 As I was riding the MRT home, I asked myself, what made me different from most women? Given that everybody’s beautiful and special, there should be a […]
Okay, I succuumbed. I’m a sucker for deals and after getting the second letter from Chunghwa Telecom that I’m one of their platinum subscribers (guess all those NT$1,000++ bills paid off) and deserve a fresh mobile phone at a NT$1,500 discount, I finally gave in and bought this beauty: Sigh, so I’ve been on a […]
Look what came in the mail! That’s what you get for losing your pink one — NT$1,600 poorer (only got the 1GB one), yet the owner of a lovely hot-red machine! Isn’t she beautiful? 😀 Aiyo, this retail therapy’s starting to get out of hand… 🙁 Still a bit blue, but not as much! Yeehah!
