Now that we can do anything we like with our smartphones and tablets making a journal of the events in our life has never been easier. Gone are the days when we would keep a pen and a pad in our bag and take notes when we had the chance. Now there are apps that [...]
When I learned about Flipboard I was champing at the bit to have it on my phone even though it was impossible. It’s an app for Android and iOS platform and my previous smartphone wasn’t even close to these two mobile operating systems. The idea of flipping, reading and sharing has fascinated me and I [...]
Tweeties and Twimgo are Twitter apps for Symbian or Nokia Belle. I’ve been using these apps for over a year now and I must say they both work the way I expected. There are differences though on how the features are presented but smart in a way.
If you have ever so wanted that Instagram app but desperate about having it because the developer has exclusively created it for iPhone’s, don’t fret cos there’s a similar app for non-iPhone users. What’s special about this mobile application is the ability for users to apply effects on photos. If your phone runs Android or Symbian the Molome app can give [...]
I wonder how impossible it is to recognize ones ringtone and how likely it is to have the same tune with others. If you make a ringtone that’s different from others then you would know if it’s your phone ringing in the public or not. But if you’re using your phone’s signature melody as a [...]
The first snowfall in my place came as a surprise yesterday. Everybody was like in panic and road chaos everywhere created some accidents. Lucky for those who just stayed home and slept the cold away. This is the season when I get sluggish and all I want is sleep, but I’m sure many of us do. [...]

Shopping online is a trending activity in front of the computer. It’s, however, a decisive choice to browse for catalogues online before indulging into excessive shopping. The eckersleys art craft catalogue, for instance, gives an overview of the products for art and craft enthusiasts.
Quite a late post about the start of Advent observation here but it has just started and just one of the four candles has been lighted. This is one event in this country that I don’t want to miss. Each year I spend time preparing my place for Advent. My kitchen window will always look [...]
To be honest, I hadn’t eaten these small, bite-sized dessert until a few months ago when we entered our room at Sheraton Hotel in Stockholm. I didn’t even know it was called French Macarons. I learned the name on Pinterest when I saw some pinned photos which I thought kind of well-known to me. I thought they’re just plain cookies but when I [...]
Decorative Pumpkins for Halloween
Halloween is just around the corner and some children can’t really wait to dress up scary. I always prepare goodies and candies just in case they come to ring the doorbell and rant “trick or treat?” in chorus. I’m not used to decorating my home for halloween but a tint of orange or yellow as a [...]
It’s my first time to join Vår Ruset yesterday at Slottsskogen (park). It’s a yearly race for women here in Sweden and Gothenburg had its turn yesterday. It happens in the month of May when Spring is at its best. All women at work or in different organizations are welcome to join. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a bit of luck [...]
We thought our final gathering at work this time would be uninteresting since we were told that the administration would not be treating us a free Christmas smorgasbord (julbord). We were instead told to have potluck, which sounded more or less pleasing to everyone. But it turned out to be a smorgasbord (smörgåsbord) of international food culture. From pasta to pirogue, spring rolls [...]

We’ve had to work for three days this week and yesterday, the final day, was a competency development at the Swedish National Museums of World Culture. The [...]
