Cutting the (cable) cord

» It was just a regular day at work, and I was counting down the minutes until happy hour (also known as every Monday to Friday). When the clock on my computer screen read 5pm, I let out a high-pitched "Yipee!", grabbed my purse, and flashed an in-your-face look to Guru's overworked writers (it's good being the boss).

» Nicola Jones-Crossley, 23, is the branch director of Business in Heels Bangkok, a women’s-only networking group for sassy and successful professionals. Business in Heels (BIH) was founded in Australia in early 2012, and since then has achieved a global presence with over 35 branches in the US, UAE, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa and now Thailand. Boasting “Business Babes” that come together professionally and personally, BIH events are like a bra — they support women. BIH Bangkok will have its official launch on Wed, Mar 26 at Swissotel Nai Lert Park (6:30-9pm. Tickets available from businessinheelsbangkokpremier.eventbrite.com.au). We sat down for a woman-to-woman chat with Nicola ahead of BIH’s Bangkok debut next week.

The most slack-tastic time of year!
Guru, Sumati Sivasiamphai, Published on 07/12/2012
» We've finally made it to December, which means that the seizure-inducing lights have been strung up across the city, the festive outdoor events are taking place in full force, and there may be at least five cases of assault as a result of annoying Christmas music blaring in every department store.

Three ways Halloween is like real life
Guru, Sumati Sivasiamphai, Published on 26/10/2012
» Halloween is almost upon us again (Oct 31). While I'm sure all you fun party people out there are getting into the supernatural spirit, I find this non-holiday holiday to be about as exciting as someone who shows up to a costume party wearing a white sheet with two holes cut out for eyes. Yes, that means that my lame self will probably just sit at home eating all the candy that I'm supposed to be handing out to trick-or-treating kids (and I'll love every cavity-producing second of it).
