It was one of Momo's best friend's birthday. Momo and I bought her an birthday present in the form of an entrance ticket to Universal Studios Singapore (USS). She was so happy! Big girls do get excited when they are going to a theme park! Trying to finish every single ride, we were th...
It’s no secret that I love burgers . Love going out for them and also love making them. And I think I do a pretty good job. Haven’t had too many complaints at least. That said, I’ve always been slightly bothered by one thing. I prefer my burgers with a slightly thicker patty. It’s jus...
On Budget day, we waited anxiously for the copy of the speech that would be given to the press. A blurb for our video in the papers had already been confirmed for the next day. When we obtained a list of the key measures, it was 3 p.m. We knew it would be impossible to include all the...
, I managed to witnessed a wedding between two GOs working in the club resort. It was one morning that I woke up and I saw banting banner of the two lovebirds having their ceremony together in Club Med Bali, where they first met and fell in love. Of course it all made sense. And kinda...
Someone from Singapore did a parody of “Under the Sea” on Singapore MRT transport system called “I Wanna Si”, which means “I want to Die” in Hokkien. So, Sebastian the Lobster sang along the tune of “Under the Sea” and tries to warn the Little Mermaid about the state of Singapore MRT ...

The key to a flawless face is finding the best foundation for your skin. This quest is a tricky one because first there’s the problem of finding the right type of foundation: Do you pick liquid over mousse or powder above all? Next, there’s the whole issue of finding the best foundati...
Continuing my stint of non-Fashion Week related posts (I know, it’s obvious I’m procrastinating about Fashion week), I’ve decided to post some watches I really love. I’m not really into the really expensive watches that feature precision clockworks and stuff like that cause I approach...
不管在哪裡，聽眾都是一樣的。 剛看了「康熙來了 」之 ‘走出廣播電台的DJ們’ ，台灣北、中、南不同地區的DJ上節目。十個人那麼多，無法深入去聊甚麼，但我發現很多地方的聽眾都有共同點。 其中一位提到，她在空中說自己餓了、病了，馬上就會有聽眾送吃的、補的，而且都只留在櫃台，然後默默離開。那位DJ認為這很溫馨。我倒覺得有點可怕。要是有人下毒，你死了變厲鬼，也不知道要找誰。至少也要留個名字吧？哈哈哈！不過，這樣的下毒事件不曾在我們身上發生啦。 有幾次，我剛好在空中說想吃些甚麼，然後那樣東西就很神奇地出現。我不知道其他DJ怎麼處理，可我不常在空中道謝，因為這會給人產生一種...
I didn’t have any engagements for the weekend, and I’m on leave from Monday to Wednesday. That’s FIVE days away from the microphones. It’s not that I desperately need any rest or something. I just have to clear my leave balance before the end of the financial year. SATURDAY | MAHJONG ...
Just read in detail about foot binding in ancient China. I always thought they just wrapped up the feet during infancy to stop them from growing. But, no! They wait till the girl is 4-7 years old, then break her toes and arch bones so that the toes can curl under the sole. Without ana...
OK, I know I’m very late on this news. Twitter added more countries and cities to the Trending Topics back in November last year and Singapore was one of them. How could I have missed that? Trending Topic is pretty useful for finding out what’s happening. Although most of the time it ...
February issue (p126 & 127). This month, they have a special Social Media edition which talks about how Social Media has changed our lives and the way we communicate with everyone. Facebook, twitter, youtube, flickr, and blogs have become part of our daily routine.
Take an expedition back in time and let the streets of the civic district area and the central business district come alive with rich history. These walking tours are specially catered for families (children aged 10 and above) and friends to learn more about our historic buildings and...
One of the biggest surprised that came from Singapore Budget 2011 is the abolishment of TV and Radio licenses. And it was greeted with cheers on Twitter and Facebook minutes after Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam announced it during the Budget speech. Home owners paid S$110 a y...
This is going to sound hypocritical for a business blogger like me, but I am going to say it anyway. It's better to get something REAL done than to spend too much time reading my blog. Or, for that matter, the hundreds of other business, PR and marketing blogs offering an endless buff...
