Alien Registration Number Needed to Access WiFi service in Starbucks

Hubby and I usually stay in Poetree, the coffee shop located at the ground floor of our apartment, when our Little Dynamo is sleeping in his stroller. We either read or he works and I browse the net. The coffee shop is very convenient for us as it has a free WiFi service offering a [...]

Friday Frustrations: Television as a Nanny?

Last week, I decided to join Maria of Conversations with Moms in her Friday Frustrations meme. The one constant source of stress for me is the television. I know. I know. I have conceded several times in the past how videos have supplemented my son’s love for dancing and singing. I love watching him so [...]

What’s in a Name?

When I first started having friends here in Seoul, I would always ask a new friend’s name… more than asking for their child’s name. As my social interaction progressed, I noticed I was often referred to as my son’s mom. My first thought was, like Stifler’s mom in “American Pie”? Hmmm… sultry. LOL. For new acquaintances, I would always [...]

Obtaining a Credit Card for F-3 Visa Holders

Using a credit card here in South Korea is more than just having “cash-less” convenience. Purchases using a credit card is directly connected to the tax system which counts your tax incentives at the end of the fiscal year. Hubby and I didn’t feel the need for me to have my own credit card here [...]

The Whys and Whats Attack

Reading to my Little Dynamo has been extra tasking these days… but rewarding, if I may add so. I started reading to him at 3 months old. I have a video of him flipping a book at about that age and it’s just so heart-warming watching it over and over again. We went about with [...]

Geared Up for the Rain

Today is a rainy day here in Seoul. Our family had our brunch in a nearby Popeye’s and our Little Dynamo was geared up for the rain. He insisted on holding my umbrella. So there he was, struggling with the weight. LOL. Tomorrow would be a sunny day.

Should Gay Marriage Be Legal?

Should gay marriage be legal? Miss California Carrie Prejean received a lot of flak from Perez Hilton after her stand against same-sex marriage during the interview section of Miss USA. I personally feel for the lady as she only stood up to what she believed in in front of people who are very vocal about [...]

A Pororo Musical Show

I gained a new friend from my son’s school. Even though she decided to stop sending her boy to Kinder Schule and I opted to put my son in day class, we scheduled a weekly get-together for our boys. Yesterday, we went to watch a Pororo musical at Yangjae in Gangnam. The theatre is in [...]

Friday Frustration

I decided to join Maria of Conversations with Moms in her Friday Frustrations meme. My first Friday Frustration entry is my seemingly continuing habit of procrastinating… in writing. I can write in my blog site and I can write about anything that interest me but the kind of writing which demands a lot from my mind seem to be [...]
