London Lovin’: Marylebone Parish Church Gardens
Trekked to Marylebone High Street on foot from Oxford Circus Underground. (Yes it was a loooong journey and walking is what I do when I hate staying in the hotel room with nothing to do) It’s a cool late-summer day with overcast skies but no sign of rain – perfect for a lazy walk in…

London Lovin’: Salads Galore
In an attempt to eat healthy, after weeks of body-damaging food & activities, I’m (finally) faithfully eating my greens! The variety of salads at Pret A Manger is staggering. Besides being so darn fresh this salmon couscous is actually very yummy! Also, my mom will be glad I’m not just eating chips, chocs and cereal…

Yet there isn’t a train I wouldn’t take
A meeting, a perfume launch, and an after-work HappyHour at Words Worth — all these on my only day home this week! Loving what I do because I could be spending the entire day in bed with my truckload of books, but if I’m not filling up my days and making sure I’m dead beat…

a different sky
I can’t fight the sentiments flooding back alongside memories — simply by hearing a song, when my iPod’s on shuffle, it’s completely out of the blue — to think that out of 12-hundred songs, the one song that makes your heart clench has to play just as your mind’s too clear to be distracted. I…

Kudos to the kind Caucasian lady who took the photograph for us And I’m home early for the weekend to bake my family a Rice Krispies batter treat! Dessert ought to…

You don’t have to say you love me
“I suppose the things that you always take for granted, that you don’t even notice, are what you miss the most.” — Sarra Manning (You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me)

Travel-diary: Milano (II)
A 6-hour journey on foot in Milan as a solo explorer armed with just my camera and a cup of Caffe Shakerato Sights and sounds of a bustling Italian city. Beautiful.

Travel-diary: Naviglio grande Milano
Traveling is indeed a discovery of the self – I’ve learnt that shopping is no fun when there’s so much sightseeing and exploration to do! While everyone else was at Serravalle (designer outlet), I took to exploring on my own. Armed with a fedora, and a city map and my batman suit, I was determined to…

Travel-diary: Melbourne
Perhaps I’m not too much of a winter person. Hiding from the incessant drizzle in the heated warmth of the hotel just shows what a coward I am! Checked in at Rendezvous Melbourne in the evening. Dinner was at Nando’s, before bumming with Rena and watching Running Man till we almost dropped dead from laughing…

she’s all the lifeboats you need
Hands up if you’ve got an eternal crush on Jack Dawson. “Well, yes, ma’am, I do… I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what’s gonna happen or, who…
