Rondnoir

Believe it or not, I’ve never tried Ferrero Rondnoir until today. I’ve always been the Rocher person. But I sometimes prefer dark chocolate to regular chocolate because my tonsils are very sensitive and it blows up pretty much when I stuff in too much sweets into my mouth. My officemate just got back from a weekend in Singapore and brought me this small box of Ferrero Rondnoir. It is DELICIOUS. I don’t know if I’m exaggerating but I love it. My favorite of all time is Toblerone (simple girl, simple pleasures) because the chocolate speaks to me. But this may be the 2nd on my list now. I haven’t had chocolates in ages, also probably why the taste was great. Thanks to Google Images it was so easy for me to find a photo. I wanted to take a photo of mine but I did a DOMO-KUN on it already and NOM-ed it.

Hello Bed

The weekend is finally here and I plan to spend most of it in bed. The past 3 weekends have been spent outside with friends, I spent the weekend at bff’s 2 weeks ago or with family because last week we checked in a hotel for my mom’s birthday. I’m going back to my cocoon later. It’s just gonna be me time where I’m just completely gonna laze the day away.. I’m allowed to! Work weeks are completely draining, add rush hour traffic to that. I love my work, I just wish there was more time in the day to actually unwind as opposed to waking up, going to work, work, coming home, dinner, catch up on a few things I missed, sleep then it’s the same routine again. It’s 1am and my bed awaits..

Weekend Recap

It’s officially Monday in my part of the world, and in a few hours it’s back to the office again. This was probably the laziest Sunday ever. Went straight home after church because my dad wanted to catch the boxing match (Mayweather and whoever his opponent was) but it ended before we got home anyway. I had one of the best naps in my life, probably due to hangover’s late reaction, but it was glorious. I wouldn’t trade those 4-5 hours for anything in my life. Sleep is definitely the best luxury anyone can have. A chill night with friends beats the whole loud scene in my book. Or maybe because I’ve grown older (I’m not sure about the wiser part) that I prefer quiet nights (not necessarily mouth quiet because we were overly loud in that cafe) with friends versus the whole clubbing thing. I used to love clubbing so much–I still do now, just not as much as before but if I were to choose a Saturday night it would be along the …

Third Culture Friendship

I just got home from a pretty long day and I’m so happy to be flopped in my bed (and possibly watch Personal Preference–see post below). There are some things going on in my life right now that I don’t really agree to, hopefully these “things” are for the better and will give me a few answers I need in life i.e. where I’m headed, what I’m supposed to do, how do I breakaway and everything in between. I don’t wanna dwell too much on it because I’m trying to practice living in the moment, so let’s just leave it as it is for now. While on the way home last night with bff to drive Paul & Patrick after hanging out, the four of us got into a conversation about our friendship. I have always called these people “The Core” because I consider these people as my core support system in Jakarta. We were talking about how much we missed hanging out especially since everyone’s so far from each other, or doing their own …

Minimal Saturday

After deciding on countless themes and designs for this blog, I finally settled with this one. It’s white, it’s clear, no fuss with just a humble colorful banner like the one above. I named it Infinitely Interesting after an Incubus song called Echo which says: Could you show me dear Something I’ve not seen Something infinitely interesting It sorta means that I hope with this blog I get to unravel all the interesting things and hopefully share them making it infinitely interesting. I also wanted to find an excuse to quote my favorite band of all time and its amazing lyricist Brandon Boyd and that part of the song just spoke to me. Today is a pretty chill Saturday, I was supposed to have brunch with my closest high school friends to celebrate our friendship of almost a decade but since one of us couldn’t make it we moved it to another time, hopefully next week. I’ve been friends with these guys for so long and they’re the ones who made me get through most …
