The Curious Case of the Apple Turnover

And so I went out with my bud, Jaywalk, when he returned from Taobaoland for a stint. We headed to Starbucks for a cuppa and were queuing up for drinks when I saw him staring very intently at the pastry and cake display. With a sense of foreboding, I trotted towards him. Him: Hey, look [...]

Vichy Tri-Activ Anti-Imperfection Hydrating Care

As close and online friends know, I’m always on a tireless quest to improve my perpetually troubled skin. Before I flew off to Copenhagen, I was invited by Pearlin to the Vichy Normaderm event at House @ Dempsey. I was very interested in the new and improved line Vichy has come up with – an [...]

starmist the IT-diot

So Pawprintz, her fiancé and I went to Epicentre as I was in need of a new pair of apple earphones to replace my torn, tattered and corroded ones. The fiancé to sales guy: Do you guys have headphones that come with the microphones? Sales guy [enthusiastically]: Oh yes! Here are some. These *gestured with hands* are [...]

First Taste of Copenhagen

Island Brygges is across the city, separated by water and connected by a bridge. I saw this hanging and wondered what it was all about. A few steps later, I saw more. Similar to what the Japanese does in some areas of Tokyo, people made wishes and hung the locks with their names on them on [...]

S T A Y at Copenhagen

cOPENhagen!

Hello, I’m in Copenhagen! Don’t “wah!” too soon; I’m here for work and had to fly 1/2 hour before my birthday. Somewhere between Sillypore and Denmark, midnight happened, and then unhappened, and happened, and unhappened, repeat and rewind. Birthday came 6 times this year ha ha de ha. *lame joke* Birthday was spent walking and [...]

And I’m Off

Ooh, today – or not yet today – is a special day, but I am not here and not yet there, and somewhere past midnight, midnight didn’t happen; the hour tries to strike past by me, but I am fleeing away from Time, and the minute before midnight will drag for 6 more hours before [...]

Bangkok Birthday

So Bangkok is usually about 3 things: shopping, eating and massages. One evening, the gang and I decided to go for a head, neck and shoulder massage somewhere close to our hotel before dinner, and somehow the duration of the [terribly bad] massage overshot by… hellalotoftime. We were running late for our dinner at Tawandang [...]
