Okay, finally have time to write this. I know I promised you all this post will be up last night but by the time I finished my Japanese test, I thought ‘sweets’ was a Japanese word. So obviously you all have an idea how splendid my performance must have been during the test. #failoredilalikethisOn a [...]

Will upload the group pic with everyone when we get hold of the copies :)Okay before we start, if you are rerouted to this blogpost from some 'naughty' websites; I suggest you click x as the content is really not what you're expecting.

The last chat with Bibik
As she was giving me a back massage, we had a very interesting conversation (for which towards the end she was almost fired- hence the last chat):N: Bik, do you think she's prettier than me? *showing a picture on Instagram*B: (without hesitation and the tiniest bit of guilt) Oh, she's pretty, you're sweet.N: *red with [...]
Jane of all trades
Since I started the Inspiring Orchid I have the tendency to women-named everything. My car used to be James but now SHE is Emily. But shoes have to always be Jimmy. Eventhough they're not Choos they'll always be Jimmy. Teehee.My laptop is now resting in a clinic as the battery decided to die on me. [...]

Small changes
Okay, it is time to address something serious. My eating habits. I have been going through this weird acne flare up phase these past few weeks. That's why the photos on Instagram are all just foods and quotes. Out of options and skincare products to try, I decided to tweak my lifestyle a bit.1) Healthier [...]
Phone interviews
Let me tell you this without freaking myself out. Phone interviews are a pain in the ermm... buns? (I'll figure out a slightly more appropriate word for it later)I mean, how do you ace this thing? One minute you're I don't know, eating yogurt? And the next moment you have a phone call for oh [...]
Urgh. I hate figuring out titles.
If this snowman can make the best out of summer why can't I?So, I just googled 'how to transfer your photos from iphone to macbook'. Clearly, I am technology savvy. I was thinking some ways to personalize my blog and thought maybe my own photos will do the trick. Anyway, that's not important.I know how [...]
