All For You

Countless of times, my mom would hope to win in the lottery game. And on cloud nine, she'd go on enumerating the things she's going to buy and do with the prize money. Problem is, she buys a card to draw out her "winning" numbers only when she remembers numbers which flashed in her nighttime dream. She so believes in this and she's not alone. There are millions of others in this country (or in the world) who wish to win that jackpot to be more financially secure in life. However, it's common kn [..] > read more
HR: Missing In Action?
Published on 2012-05-15 01:43:00
If you're in an active job hunt, do you... Feel that you’re one ideal candidate for the job posted but baffled since the HR has not gotten in touch with you after weeks or even months? Feel frustrated by HR or recruiters not acknowledging your submission of CV and/or calling you back after you've completed an exam or interview? Feel that the hiring process hasn't been improved despite that there are many technological advancements (e.g. for scheduling, checking of results, sending of auto [..] > read more
One Door Built for Chinoy TV
Published on 2012-05-05 06:57:00
Long ago and faraway, enamored of my own voice (ahem), I began my odyssey of writing--in my personal handwritten diary and after a while in private, public and commercial typewritten blogs. The number of views by my visitors from around the world in a day is decent enough to suggest that I’m not talking only to the mirror. But I am no Xiaxue, on the other hand. Anyway, somewhere in between, I realized that though I might be expressing myself good enough through this medium, I have not practi [..] > read more
The Waiting Game
Published on 2012-05-01 01:21:00
Well, it seems that we are often waiting for something. Regardless of who you are or what you do for a living, chances are, you have to play the waiting game: W A I T... for the traffic light to turn green if you're the motorist (or red, if you're the pedestrian) for the mail to come for the recess, break, weekend or vacation for the right partner in life for the birth of a child or grandchild for the adoption papers to come through for the healing of an injury To me, waiting right [..] > read more

Sometimes people contact me for advice, whether it be about love life, career, technical gadgets, software choice and installation procedures, phone applications, household and other life decisions. I would love to be an old wise person who knows everything, but most of the time I feel like I am only as good at some things as I am at assembling some furniture. Without instructions. Red-cheeked. In the desert. Alone submerged underwater. My closest friends know my weaknesses--doing super simple [..] > read more
Nationalism: Answer to the Philippines' Economic Problems
Published on 2012-04-03 02:12:00
As I am in the middle of organizing my files after reformatting my laptop, I found this essay I wrote for KASPIL2 (Kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, or in English, History of the Philippines) when I was an undergraduate student in college. I scanned through it and thought despite that it was written on November 29, 2008, the topic is still quite relevant to date. So here I'm sharing it to the public: Introduction It seems that the continuing economic tragedy of the Philippines has long been scripted, si [..] > read more

Review of Han's Cafe
Published on 2012-03-11 04:38:00
We were supposed to have lunch in the Boat Quay district but found that all the restaurants in Upper Circular Road were closed. This may be because today is Sunday and they're only open to customers in the weekdays primarily targeting the workers in the nearby offices. So we scouted for places to eat until we reached Chinatown and had lunch in Han's, alternatively. A Hainanese family-owned business, Han's started from a small food counter that has grown into one of the most recognized fast food [..] > read more
Review of Chennai Dosa

I am not cutting my umbilical cord to Chinese food, but with impressive succulent surfeit of spices, some Indian vegetarian cuisine are also good. Sauntering around Little India, I've come across this humble food house, a quiet enclave perpendicular to the busy Serangoon road, while in active pursuit of pure vegetarian restaurants yesterday. Their menu lists Indian snacks having different flavors of pratta, rava, uthappam, dosa and other sweets. I'm not well-versed with any of these but I felt t [..] > read more
Review of Nature Vegetarian Delights

Here's the list of places you can find the same restaurant name Nature Vegetarian Delights or 大自然素食 in Chinese, although I'm not sure if these branches constitute to the same food chain and if they still are open: No. 37, Teck Chye Terrace, Singapore 545734 Blk 356, Hougang Ave 7, #01-803, Singapore 530356 Blk 112, Buki [..] > read more
Review of Gokul Vegetarian Restaurant
Published on 2012-03-08 05:52:00
Chicken rice is one of Singapore's [unofficial] national signature dishes, and lots of tourists never leave the country without devouring this enticing meal. Consisting of rice cooked in chicken broth and poached or roasted chicken slices, it is eaten with chilli-lime sauce, black soy sauce and a bowl of soup made from the chicken stock. Here in Singapore, a hawker place or kopi tiam without a chicken rice stall is almost next to impossible. But finding stalls serving vegetarian chicken rice is [..] > read more
Review of LE Cafe Confectionery & Pastry

After walking for like 10 minutes from New Green Pasture Café, I stumbled upon one pastry shop located in the same road. As I read through the menu of house specialties (pineapple tarts, moon pies, coffee cookies, chocolate cookies and rum balls), my attention was most diverted to bean curd tarts since I have never tried (or heard of) bean curd tarts before. LE Cafe Confectionery & Pastry is the first to produce Singapore’s bean curd tarts. Posters of pictures and pricing were on the wall. [..] > read more

After my Ang Mo Kio trip, I went to Novena Square to buy frozen vegetarian products from Cold Storage for my family and walked home to leave the groceries. My next stop was Fortune Centre in Bugis. In my first visit there months ago, I wasn't particularly interested in food. Rather, I was there to attend a seminar regarding Internet marketing. I didn't learn much from the seminar though I have luckily discovered an entire treasure trove of vegetarian eateries in the building. Fortune Centre hou [..] > read more
Review of Affinity Vegetarian Food

The sweltering heat of summer in Singapore has come up. Not exaggerating, I could even see the wavy optical illusions and tangled refractions resulting from saturated humidity pricking the air. However, to get to my planned goals and destinations, [too bad] I could not escape today's relentless heat. I just had to put on an ample amount of sunblock and UV protection, on my face especially.

Review of Zen Japanese Vegetarian Restaurant
Published on 2012-03-06 07:21:00
Why did I choose Zen Japanese Vegetarian Restaurant for my second review? I have done my homework and according to my research, it is the first Japanese-style vegetarian restaurant concept in Singapore; therefore, it's not to be missed! Also, they claim to offer vegan food without garlic, onion, MSG, egg and other dairy products. Then I became much intrigued: if this is so, what would be the difference in taste between non-vegetarian Japanese food and this one? I have to find out. Address: 122 [..] > read more

How to Find a Job in Singapore

Offering multifaceted opportunities for exploration, be it shopping, international trading, tourism, or education, Singapore stands out on even if it's just a tiny dot in the world map. As well, it is a great job hunting spot, where pay is attractive to most foreigners. However, contrary to what I've heard and past beliefs, landing a job in this country is not as easy as it seemed.

First of the Last

I stare out the morning window, the outline of my head stares back at me, wispy hair out of place, wild. The sun isn’t up yet, only the faintest, faded line of pink lingers over the trees out back. This slow rising happens every morning, I think to myself. As I wrap my hands around my warm cup, I can’t help but rush ahead into the day. Even though the house is quiet, I’m running on the inside as if things are in full swing. My feet haven’t moved but my soul is rumbling. Tomorrow would [..] > read more
Happy Anniversary to Me Living in Singapore!
Published on 2012-02-14 18:01:00
I have been living in the Merlion City for a year now. Hooray! In the beginning, it's as if I were living in a dream, in a perfect world. I have seen it through the eyes of a tourist, a worker and a devoted admirer, aware of its flaws but fascinated by its beauty. There are trees and plants everywhere. The sidewalks and the streets are all clean. People abide by strict rules and live neatly in their own worlds. They communicate in their own languages with their free minds.

I left home four hours earlier. I had dinner and also bought for her. She must be hungry; I knew she has not eaten before or during the flight.

I'm not a grave believer of astrology, feng shui, horoscopes or anything of related sort; I just find their accounts marvelous.

Timely Inspiration for the Start of 2012

What a great movie to start the year! 1 hour and 49 minutes and I'm done watching In Time.1 hour and 49 minutes and I still could not stop thinking about it. The movie has an unusual storyline, something like a psychological experiment. Some critics say that it is a stark baloney with flat-footed plots and silly scripts. But overall, it is super interesting (at least to me)! It twists the concept of life and challenges viewers to rethink how they live their own. How so? Let me give you a brief [..] > read more
