Review: The Perils of Penelope (1973) (February 21, 2019)
Back when I was in nursery, our little school library had a single copy of an extremely hard-to-find book called Sesame Street Presents Bert and Ernie (The Jim Henson Muppets) in The Perils of Penelope (1973).

Review: Haliya Publishing’s H Club Box 4 [Sold Out] (February 11, 2019)
Very fortunate to be among the few to have Haliya Publishing’s H Club Box 4 (with a sculpture of Tabi Po’s Elias). My H Club Box 4 arrived via courier last week and I was planning on finding some free time this afternoon to do an unboxing video. But as luck would have it–I ran outContinue reading “Review: Haliya Publishing’s H Club Box 4 [Sold Out] (February 11, 2019)”

Our LlaoLlao frozen yogurt run the day before[i] was so amazing that my Mom and I decided to go for an encore today–this time at their Megamall branch. An added incentive for going back was LlaoLlao’s signature green spoons which I plan on collecting and reusing.

Picked up three pre-owned games today–Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, and Godzilla [2014]–for a really good price.
