More than 4 years ago, after 10 attempts to get a promotion in a span of around 2 years, I finally got it in March 2015. That’s when I met Chris Stephens, the General Counsel (GC) of ADB, since December 2012. In all those unsuccessful applications, I didn’t feel discouraged because I know from experience…

“me time” essentials
The ABCs of my “me time” essentials include: Good: Ambiance Book Coffee ️ On this particular day, I managed to squeeze in some “me time.” I actually wanted to make it a regular part of my schedule, maybe once a month, one Saturday or one Sunday when I will spend it somewhere, just reading, chilling, writing my…
Coffee, tea or me?
While we are on the subject of change, I will be sharing with you some changes in me, very light and happy ones, so don’t worry. 🙂 I used to be an avid tea-drinker, well, I still drink tea but very seldom. I only drink it when I feel like I “need” it. Need means…

Summer Special (Part 3)

I’ve traveled quite a bit and have seen quite a lot but it still blows my mind each time I see such elaborate, intricate, gigantic edifice…

Lately there are lots of templates on Instagram where you will answer questions about yourself, it’s like an online version of the good old slambook! 🙂 I first saw it from my dear friend Gillian’s IG stories so I downloaded some of the templates from TheSundayChapter IG and answered them. Sharing some here: Having been able…
