All the Single Ladies

July 6, 2011 My story

Last night, I came home early from work. I had a great day: an awesome interview with Marja Vongerichten (the host of the upcoming PBS TV series “Kimchi Chronicles” and wife of Chef Jean-Georges), a busy work day of transcribing and writing (no thumb-twiddling!) and a yummy mid-afternoon Asian snack (strawberry cheesecake pretzel sticks). And [...]

Cheesy Sunday

June 6, 2011 blog meet-up

I apologize. I missed last weekend’s ED post. I have not been very active online lately. I just have a lot on my mind and I haven’t really had the energy to write a lucid post, especially a sensitive and emotional one like my Weekend ED series. So this post will be a bit of [...]

Three Hoorays

May 11, 2011 My story

I’m So Hot

November 27, 2010 product review

I wish you all understood Korean. Because I really, really want you to sing along with me to this: It’s hilarious! It cracks me up every single time I listen to it. It’s funny because these five girls are rocking and bopping to the most ridiculous dance, saying the most ridiculous things: “Everybody is watching [...]

Thank You Letter to God

November 26, 2010 dinner event

Dear God, I tried. I really tried to think about all the things for which I need to thank you. I tried to list them down. I tried to organize them into neat categories, so that I knew I’d have three main thanksgivings to share during tonight’s Thanksgiving dinner. I tried. And I failed. Because [...]
