End-of-year Vacation v2
Well, I think Ling will be thrilled to hear this: but after writing up an itinerary for a 10 day vacation to Taiwan (she chose Taiwan ahead of Boracay and Sabah), I decided to see if I could work out
Coco Chanels
Coco Chanel (TV, 2008) and Coco avant Chanel (Film, 2009) – on rental. The only thing I know about Chanel really is the fashion giant has something called “Chanel No. 5”, though what exactly that item is I had no
