Thanks for finding Penny’s Daybook!

Penny PigtailsWe are a Singapore-based lifestyle portal for both girls and boys from all over the world to draw inspiration from. Our readers are smart, art savvy, trend setting, independent and spirited individuals with diverse interests.

We get our hands busy as we provide exciting ideas for the artsy soul, offer lifestyle centric articles, host a gallery filled with photographic memories and feature reviews on gadgets, toys and bits of the entertainment scene. Penny’s Daybook consists of pretty much what we love, actually.

What’s a party without communication? This interactive space encourages readers to share whatever’s on their minds as opinionated individuals with varied personalities.

Ditch those other bandwagons; let me take you for a real ride.

Chin Adine (Business Developer/ Editor)
adine@pennysdaybook.com

As a child, she built tents from blankets and pillows and in all that blueprint of fluff, secret passage ways were constructed. To play and keep adult trespassers at bay, security also meant having a toy telescope at the entrance.

But Adine has since stopped hoarding furniture as she grew to love the idea of hoarding ideas in her head. Adine illustrates, designs, dances and impersonates, though none of which she does professionally. She is however, a freelance writer/copywriter and a creative writing teacher who loves her music without the crazy auto-tune.

Today with the creation of Penny’s Daybook, she feels like she’d never left the tent at all.

Kim Hana (Content Management/ Editor),
hana@pennysdaybook.com

A woman of few words with an unsmiling mien to match, Hana believes she is better read than seen or heard. The better part of her always exists on a page.

As writer and sub-editor in her full time job at a lifestyle magazine and publishing company, she spends a good majority of her time bent over the keyboard. Apart from writing, she worries a great deal for her eyesight and posture. However, she enjoys her job immensely and hopes to gain many more opportunities as such.

Hana’s brush with Penny’s Daybook is not so much mere coincidence as it is the chasing of common dreams with good friends. She embraces New Media but would love to see the day Penny’s Daybook rolls off the press, hot and heavy – with information – what were you thinking?

Nicole Verghese (Creative Developer/ Editor) ,
nicole@pennysdaybook.com

Nicole is a singer, domestic goddess, technofreak and literary enthusiast all rolled into one. A writer by profession, she hopes to make it as a singer some day, whilst growing and supporting Penny’s Daybook.

Entrenched in the arts since Nicole was a child, she’s been in love with everything to do with music, movies, performing arts, books, design, fashion and the creative process behind them. While dabbling in poetry and song-writing, she also bakes and like any other Singaporean, loves food.

She also tends to talk to herself and break out into a song randomly.

Photographs were beautifully shot at Joan Leong Photography.

    hi. any possibility of looking at a “makan” section? reviews of gastronomy sensations would be nice. value for money; nice ambience; nice food: for the young boys finding exotic places to bring their dates to. =)

    Hi Nixon,

    Thanks for dropping by and taking an interest keen enough to give suggestions on what we should feature.

    We are currently looking into that because we know how Singaporeans can be such foodies but the occasional epicurean dinner date is a must. We promise more food reviews.

    But you know what, sometimes it’s the heart that counts and if your purse-strings are tight then try a DIY dinner like the Rosemary Chicken and Potatoes, a recipe from Bachelor’s Banquet!
