So part 2 of my adventure at PA continues! This time around, I was invited down to a 3-1-2 Meridian class at the Botanical Gardens hosted by Geylang West CC. Short of sounding like a math class, the Meridian theory is actually the core concept of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). If you’re wondering what meridians [...]

I was recently selected to participate in a Blogging Challenge by People’s Association where I was invited to take advantage of the workshops held at the local community clubs in exchange for blogging about them (No, I did not get any cash for this. If only I could pay my electricity bills with social currency). [...]

I’m turning 23 today and it would be pretty stupid not to use this opportunity to blackmail my friends and colleagues into voting for me at the Singapore Blog Awards 2011 which I am a finalist for. That’s right. It’s my birthday and if Josie says, you do it! Here is a simple visual aid [...]

This is an overdue post on our vacation to Mumbai & Goa mainly because it has been about a month since we’ve been back and you know how the internet works – anything later than 24 hours is so last summer. In summary, Goa was mind-blowing. Far from what it’s commonly portrayed as a haven [...]

So you must have heard by now (through obnoxious emails/twitter updates) that my blog has been shortlisted for the Singapore Blog Awards 2011!

I’m a finalist in the SBA2011 WTH category and [...]

Basically what the title of this post says…in that he actually sounds like a bawling brat. Weirdly real. Really weird. Why do I feel the urge to smother him with a pillow? And while we’re on the subject of children, have you met the ‘Adult Baby’? Yeah, just an average guy who enjoys being fed, [...]

This evening I made my way to Palate Sensations Cooking School for a cooking class hosted by blogger & technopreneur Jon Yongfook Cockle, held in conjunction with Cookpad, Japan’s #1 Recipe website’s launch in Singapore. The lovely Palate Sensations Cooking School (visited by Anthony Bourdain!! They have pictures to prove it!) is nestled in the [...]

In case you’re not following me on Twitter or don’t care enough about my life to read my Facebook statuses, Kiwi and I are currently immersed in the sights, sounds, smell and sweat of India because his Indian colleague is getting married in Mumbai. Cue, celebratory bollywood dancing around palm trees and 3 costume changes. [...]

The Fast & The Furious 5: Betcha didn’t think the series would survive past the car crash that was Tokyo Drift If you’re a fan of films with fast cars and testosterone fueled street racing, Fast Five is right up your alley. Thanks to the kind folks at omy.sg, Kiwi and I were invited down [...]
