Taiwan It That Way

I've got to say, this is one of the most memorable trips I've ever had. And I bet Jan would say the same. We booked our Taiwan trip from November 16 to 19, thinking that 3 days would be enough for Taipei. But since the airline cancelled our flight on the 16th, we had it moved …

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

For the first time in my life, I wished I have the singing voice and be in a musical. Well actually, I have been part of musicals. The biggest one I had was just a mere school play in college. But what difference does it make? I think the only line that divides both professional and a…

How I Avoided Pregnancy Stretch Marks

I'm not saying that stretchmarks are bad. This is in no way an indication that your body is ruined. But it is indeed a proof of how it has triumphed. However, a lot of people are still asking me how come I do not have pregnancy stretchmarks at all. Well, I had my way of "avoiding…

Hong Kong-Macau Diary

This is not a travel guide but rather a summary of our recently concluded HK-Macau trip. ON AIRPORTS I'm not really sure what exactly happened but I think I held my breath for a while as I stood in front of the Immigration Officer while he asked me a couple of questions. The th…
