Following the highs of being with friends on Saturday afternoon, I was hit by an inexplicable sadness come evening. I became easily annoyed (much to the stress of the long-suffering better half) and pensive. Lest you diagnose me as crazy, let me assure you that I have long suspected as much... (haha!) Anyway, it might …
Hollywood goes on a baby boom, while I await my fate…

Here's my office desk a good two months ago: ...and last Saturday, around 5PM: I wont deny that I feel a certain sadness seeing the once "busy" desk left empty. There's an unspoken melancholy in opening empty drawers, used to be crammed with papers and stuff-- now rattling noisily due to an occasional pen or …
The Baker’s List (A Meme)
This blog is inspired by one of my kind readers, GravureLover (loved your name!) who ended up here at Kamikazee Universe over a wrong link. As usual, I am indebted to Sunday Stealing for constantly providing writing material -- I will forever be one of your avid thieves 🙂 Anyway, here's my fourth meme -- …
Notes to a wedding, long goodbyes and tear-stained tissue paper
It's still December 10 -- a good twenty days before the year ends and we usher in new beginnings. A good ten days but I feel my world spinning so fast that there are moments that I would like to scream -- Stop! I want to get off! I have been so unbelievably blessed this …

Life has a way of giving you funny and endearing little surprises -- and in the end, it's really up to you to keep up. I am currently trapped in a whirlwind of pleasant surprises, ground breaking challenges, realizations and little blessings. Sometimes, I find it hard to keep up, but it's the little blessings …
And I felt my heart cave in

Of sisterhood and random photoshoots
Of all the things that bring the element of sweetness to the usual payday--one of the highlights for me is the little ritual I share with my little sister, my Unniechan (a portmanteau of the Korean and Japanese word for sister Uhn-nee and Onee chan ). My sister is 3 years younger than me, but …
I am not here.
My mind is millions of miles away, currently eating a bowl of ice kachang while feasting on mutton and beef satay: A part of me wants to blame myself for not saving enough this year to make it for our usual November get-away...The Hubby and I. We have planned to go to SG (his first …
W.W.B.W.D? (what would Blair Waldorf do?)
These past few weeks, I've been entirely acting like a drowned rat that's been too miserable to even save my life. A lot of shitty things have been happening to me this past few weeks and alone in my room, I have come to realize that I have been acting like a loser whining endlessly …
