I finally found a proper Apple Store in Saigon, with people who actually understand what you need and are actually helpful. Whew! Only those who have lived in Saigon will understand how much of a feat that is. Haha! Now my MacBook has a fresh battery pack on its ass. Yay!

The end of Spooks left us with no other option but to go back to DVD movies. Oh man. If Spooks was one of the best we've seen, Drive was the complete opposite. That's it. You've seen everything. Nothing more to see, believe me. Geez. The fact that the trailer already gives everything away says a lot, no? But really, one would expect that Drive would be this fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat kind of

Well, that's it. We've reached the end of what was probably the best series we've seen, ever. Argh! The soundtrack alone makes me want to start biting my nails! I'm still hoping BBC finds a way to convince the producers to continue the show. Please, guys??

Yesterday was a bit of a downer. We started watching season 10 of Spooks. We loved it, as always. But this is the LAST season... With only SIX episodes. Why, oh why?!?? We want more! BBC wants more as well. But the producers decided it was best to kill the Series while in its prime - if you can call it that, since it has been around for 10 decades. Damn! And then, I had to give Keng away to her

I know so many couples who are on the brink of breaking up right now. C'mon, guys! Don't wait for this to happen: Ouch! Are you just gonna let this happen?? Remember to always treat your partner well. Be sensitive to your partner's opinions and feelings. Show appreciation. Stop being selfish. Learn to compromise. Never take your partner for granted. Learn to fight fair. Care for what your partner

So true. If you want to have that adventure, that job, that car, that bag, that ability, that position, that trophy, and even that person...If you really want it, you gotta work on getting it. I firmly believe that the amount of effort you put into something shows the depth of its importance to you.

Busy, busy days! I should be super grumpy with everything that I have on my plate right now, but thanks to good ole' music, I'm doing everything while singing and dancing around with a smile on my face (yes, like I'm cuckoo! Haha!). Here's something worth re-posting. If you're having a blah day, then I suggest you get on the website right now!

Honestly speaking, I was expecting my NYE to be blah. Growing up, every NYE was spent with the whole family - themed costumes, games, gifts, hugs & kisses, swapping stories, lotsa food, laughter, and firecrackers - and I knew I was gonna be missing all that again this year. But HW stepped up. My knight in shining armour gave me the countdown kiss I haven't had in ages... And though we've shared

This just really tickles me. Haha! Guess who's been playing MI5 agent? Boys will be boys, I guess. But really, I'm so glad you're enjoying my gift! Why am I providing you with the gadgets, though? Isn't that supposed to be your job, now that Malcolm is gone? Haha!

Being an extremist, I always give my all. I bend over backwards as much as I can, just to make sure I am being understanding, accepting, supportive, and giving - to the point of sacrificing my own likes, wants, needs, feelings, and happiness. But too much of this leads to self deprivation, and even depression... And I've been through both. I think this also has something to do with how passionate

For my friends who are asking, yes, HW did love my Christmas present. I got him high powered binoculars and a spy accessory, so he can carry on being Bear Grylls / James Bond / MI5 agent. So yes, he thinks I give the coolest presents ever - which I do. Haha!

As much as I love HW's present, I still can't help but feel really sad that we're not together for Christmas once again. There is this knot in my tummy that simply won't go away. I thought a new pair of shoes - especially Jimmy Choos - could make everything okay. I guess Shoe Therapy doesn't work all the time after all. In my depressed state, I decided to immerse myself in Christmas tunes. I may

OH MY GAWD. This is pretty much what I looked like when I opened HW's present last night: Cos guess what my baby got me for Christmas?!?!?!?!?!?! You sure know how to make up for not being here, my love. Haha! And yes, you know me so damn well. Gawd, I'm still in shock. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Mmmmmmmwah!!!

Growing up, the holiday season was always "the most wonderful time of the year" for me. It was a time for family, true friends, warm hugs, good food, cheerful greetings, and delightful presents. The air just seemed different during this season - full of love, happiness, and warmth. It was perfect. And then I became an adult. Responsibilities have kept me away from home for years, and instead of

It seems the kitchen was hotter than usual today. Whew! Isn't the weather supposed to be cooler during the Holiday season? But I do love cooking for my man. His lunches are my favorite. I know how he works his ass off, and so I want him to have a yummy meal (made with love) to enjoy in the middle of the day. Mwah!

Typhoon Washi hit Mindanao Friday night. Some people were having their respective Christmas parties and were commenting on how it sounded like a washing machine outside, what with the strong winds and heavy rain. By 2am, Saturday morning, some of these people were to be washed away by a flash flood. Two days later, the death toll reaches 600+, and it continues to rise - almost as fast as the

The biggest question of the season has come up once again... Have you been naughty or nice? People are so quick to judge those who have been "bad". First of all, "bad" means different things to different people. Just because you don't like it, you don't do it, or you don't have the guts to do it (ha!), doesn't make something or someone "bad". Personally speaking, I would rather be with someone

“Nothing will work unless you do.” This stands true for anything and everything in your life - your career, your car, your health, your holiday, your talent, your house, your relationships.... Whatever it is that you have, the amount of love and work you put into it will determine its fate of either failure or success. Love it or lose it. Plain and simple.

I remember a time when I would spend hours on my swing, rocking horse, or mini pool. I remember a time when Ann, Jamil, and I would ride our bikes up and down our street, shouting, "Yo, Joe!" whenever we'd pass each other - because, you know, we were really those guys from G.I. Joe. I remember a time when I would sing and dance in front of the mirror, like no one was watching (okay, this one I

Cheating, in itself, is already very wrong - to sleep with a friend's partner is simply hitting an all time low. This reeks of insecurity, immorality, selfishness, disrespect for both yourself and others, and a serious lack of self-esteem and values. Disgusting. A few days ago, my band played pro bono for the anniversary fundraiser of ARC (Animal Rescue and Care). The amount of support they got

HW and I are always on a TV series spree. Currently, we are going gaga over 3 shows, namely, SPOOKS a.k.a. MI-5 (Season 7): Drama-action-suspense filled, for spy story junkies like us. TRUE BLOOD (Season 4): What sells better than sex, gore, the unknown, and violence? and THE WALKING DEAD (Season 2): Zombie fever has hit the world, and this show keeps us satiated. I hope HW comes home early

You and me, together, has always been magical and beautiful, despite the fact that the path we tread was full of obstacles. This new chapter was going to be exciting - but also difficult, due to certain factors involved. Was I scared? Damn right, I was. There were times when I felt like I didn't have it in me to keep trudging through the jungle we were in. There were even times when I would feel

I do like wearing boxers, though. I very rarely do it, but still, I like it. They're comfy! Hehe. They say words are cheap... Even worse if they're someone else's! That's why I don't buy those cards.

You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever - because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well worn path, and

When I was 13, I got hooked on Johnny Mathis, Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, and Dionne Warwick. Night after night, I would drift off to Dreamland with a smile, while their beautiful classic tunes enveloped me in a warm blanket of bliss - as only a naive, unjaded, uncorrupted teenager could experience. Here are a few of my favorites. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have throughout the years.

HINDSIGHT By F Sionil Jose The Philippine StarSeptember 12, 2011 I was visited by an old Asian friend who lived here 10 years ago. I was floored by his observation that though we have lots of talented people, as a whole, we continue to be shallow. Recently, I was seated beside former Senator Letty Shahani, PhD in Comparative Literature from the Sorbonne, watching a medley of Asian dances.

Whilst many dream of flying, I dream of swimming. I've always loved the water. Once I'm in, I find myself not wanting to get out. It can be anything! The sea: a lake: a lagoon: a river: a stream: or, my favorite, the waterfall! So that's my dream - to be able to breathe underwater; to feel the silky touch of the water on my skin as I freely glide amongst the strange yet beautiful creatures of the

It's too bad that so many people are scared of sharks, when they're mostly harmless and are breathtakingly beautiful. The movie industry is to blame for this. Boo! Sharks don't attack unless provoked. Although, the Great White Shark is actually quite temperamental - just think of her as a woman with her period all the freakin' time. Haha!

This recorded conversation between Ninoy Aquino and Mr. Steve Psinakis tells us of Ninoy's awareness of the possible danger awaiting him upon landing in the Philippines from political exile. Despite this knowledge, Ninoy still decided to come home, proclaiming, "The Filipino is worth dying for." - A statement which we sometimes sadly forget to prove to be true. Ninoy's assassination was met by

Don't fear so much that you refuse to jump into something different or new. The saddest summary of a life contains 3 descriptions: Should have, would have, and could have.

One of the things i lurrrve about my job is that my days are usually wide open. Miracle of miracles, I fell asleep quite early last night, and so I woke up bustling with energy today. I decided to spend the morning getting some sun. Well, that, and the fact that our whole block had no power, sent me out of my flat. Still. 'Twas damn good to be soaking up some sun. It actually felt like I was on

Chanced upon a road accident last night. One guy was thrown to the other side of the road. Lying on the hard concrete, he was in so much pain that he was hardly able to move. He's the lucky one. The other guy was lying face down and motionless, half buried under his bike, right in front of a smashed up van. The crowd around the accident was standing away from him. I guess he's on a different kind

Respect to Darcus Howe for his brave, truthful answers to this interview by an ignorant BBC newscaster (put her in their shoes & see what opinions she'd have then. Stupid, sheltered b*tch). Though it may seem mindless to most people, we have to remember that where there is smoke, there is fire. I come from a country which has gone through numerous mass revolutions, and so I have a slight

Something's wrong with my phone's LCD/touch screen. I'm guessing it might cost quite a bit to have that fixed. Maybe that's why I got lucky with the Super Sale at Aldo yesterday! Can you believe I got all these for only 42USD ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Yay yay yay!!!!! Good thing that was all the money I had on me, otherwise I would've gotten more stuff. Hmmm... There's always tomorrow, though....

Do not judge the lives and decisions of other people. 'Happiness' is couture; Not one-size-fits-all. It is different things to different people.

When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down "happy". They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life. - John Lennon Right on!

"I might not be someone's first choice, but I am a great choice. I may not be rich but I am valuable. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not, because it's great being me. I might not be proud of some of the things I've done in the past, but I am proud of who I am today. I may not be perfect, but I don't need to be. Take me, or watch me as I walk away."

When people tell me to save up so that one day I can be the one sitting and watching bands - instead of being the one "working" on stage - I get the sudden urge to introduce their faces to the backside of my hand. Just saying.

The Wise Guys I miss watching them perform! It's amazing how their voices blend so perfectly. I remember this one night, during their break, we went out and hopped into someone's car. I thought we were going somewhere, but no... They started rehearsing the voicing for one of their songs - a song that they've already been doing for quite some time. I was in awe of their dedication, and actually

The staff at Thi Bar have forever been requesting for this song, so we will do it this week. American Boy: I normally don't post band requests here, but while searching for this on youtube, I stumbled upon a couple of parodies of the song and I just had to share them with you. Quite funny! Egyptian Boy: And my favorite, First Asian Boy: Hahaha!
