awesome
A few months ago, after starting my job, I was looking for books in the PolyU library to read, disappointed to find they didn’t have anything by George R.R. Martin. I wrote an e-mail to their purchasing department, on the off chance that they’d actually have a budget for such trivial requests, but today I just found an e-mail that went like this: Subject: New Book Alert Notification ...

Please allow me to plug in an entry of self-promotion, as it only happens once in a while - I randomly joined this contest to “become Hong Kong’s next fashion correspondent” for Fashion One and Lifestyle Asia a few days back in front of Play. This morning I got an e-mail that went like this: Hi Yeni, I just wanted write to say thank you for coming out to the party on...

The last Boat Party of this summer
As promised, with much delay, the boat trip entry -  The title was ripped off from the facebook event page that Mariam created. And that’s not all I’m ripping off from that event page, either. Here’s some more:  Hola Preciosos, Its almost end of the summer and I haven’t been on a boat party - clearly this must be rectified. Hence, you’re all cordially invited!...

it's that time of year again...
(No, not Christmas…) Almost exactly last year, I flew to Bacolod City (more or less an hour’s flight from Manila) for arguably the biggest festival/street party in the Philippines - the MassKara Festival. (from Wikipedia:) The MassKara Festival is a festival held each year in Bacolod City, the capital of Negros Occidental province, every October. The word “MassKara” was...
