Little over a month since I promised to blog.Current location: LondonLocal time: 10:01pmTemperature: -1°CWeather: SnowAm supposed to fly off to Holland 3 weeks ago but the Vogels, as expected, can never be certain of their agenda. Latest plan is to fly off to Spain this Sunday, (it's Thursday today) and fly to Holland 2 days later. Back in London after our 10-day holiday because little Ariana has

I can never deny my passion for travelling. It's a want, need, desire and to an extremely huge degree; an addiction. Many a times I have acquaintances coming up to me asking why I travel so much. My answers have always been pretty consistent. I want experiences I cannot get out of reading travel blogs or watching travel documentaries or hearing the (no less than) enthralling travel stories. I

Received a text from a friend whom I have not been in contact with for a while and realised that I have not been much of a friend lately. Besides this friend's random status updates on Facebook, I pretty much know naught about what he has been up to lately.Which also made me realise that I have not been much of a friend to many others. I rarely reply to texts. I rarely return calls. I rarely

This morning, I had a sudden craving for McGriddles and so I did what I do best. I ordered my breakfast over the internet. Also, I specifically requested for the rider to place my food just outside my house and to call me once he had done just that. Which he did. Chuckled to my self as I gleefully peeped through the door and saw the good old rider unloading my breakfast onto my shoe rack. A jolly

Hi.So, it is 5:10am and I just finished with my revision. Am more or less ready for my Comply with Legal Requirement paper later.

Don't you sometimes wonder what truly is going on in the other person's mind? They might say one thing but whether they really mean it is another factor altogether. It's so infuriating sometimes.And for the record, stop spitting out my name like you bloody know me. Us being previous correspondents doesn't automatically equate to you being my friend. Get over yourself already.No, I'm not depressed

Question is, will I survive the next? That I know naught.Thinking about it makes me want to cry. I have 2 jobs to juggle, classes to attend (yes, I start school tomorrow, GASPSSSS!) and bridesmaid duties to fulfill over the weekend. Crazy much? The week after is pretty much as intense only difference being that I'll be a free woman during the weekend.Moral of the story? Be careful for what you

So, it's about 4am and I'm wide awake. What's new? Oh nothing's new. I reckon by now, the whole world probably knows that I sleep at 8am everyday. Not that I'm complaining. I rather do whatever I have to do when everyone's asleep 'cause there aren't as many distractions. If like me, you live next to a bloody highway, (or have slept over at my place) you'll have a rough idea of where I'm getting

And by funny I don't mean the 'haha' funny but the 'weird' funny. Between my parents, my father is the more supportive one over my shopping. Take my recent online purchases for instance. He saw me unwrapping the parcel and started bombarding questions about the exchange rate, shipping cost bla bla bla... And I could tell that he was genuinely interested in my purchases.
