A series of digressions... I read somewhere that the success of a blog lies in giving people what they want to see and read, and in keeping private or personal matters off the table. I haven’t been able to do either. I suck at discretion. I write with my heart, on whim, and as I... Continue Reading →

For my Mom's sanity, I'm only sharing a few photos. While I can't contain the excitement over this new home,  I also have to be wary about sharing too much information. My personal 'policy' is that no photos of the bedrooms may be shown. Some things are better left private and yes, I guess, more interesting... Continue Reading →

Hypocrisy is just off-putting. So too, are extremist statements that feel like they’re being shoved down your throat. If you think I’m about to defend my position on the RH bill, you won’t find that here. I just finished reading the entire bill yesterday, but I am not (and perhaps will never be, well-versed enough)... Continue Reading →

July 25, 2012—a normal day on its own, but quite the “PERFECT” day to cushion all the week’s blows.I visited my high school alma mater to act as a judge for Buwan ng Wika. Pintasayawit is now “Teknosayawit” by the way (Spelling?). It’s always such a pleasure & privilege being back home, seeing how things... Continue Reading →

Dreams are one thing, having them come true, another. No one really tells you how difficult it’s gonna be to find a job, to know what you want to do, to have purpose, to be successful, to know thyself, to be happy, to be secure, to be everything and have everything all at once. Post-studies, we’re expected... Continue Reading →

May 17, 2012 It’s so tempting to choose a life of fluff. It’s too easy to fall into that trap—of playing and falling victim to the ironic pit of all things shallow. For some reason, I feel it all the more now, being back on Facebook and all. Going through the newsfeed sometimes feels like invading... Continue Reading →

New York, April 2012 Each trip to New York boasts its own set of adventures, mishaps and goings-on. With the help and guidance of my tito, Brian Jose (a thespian way before I decided to take a crack at it), I got to see Ghost, Peter and the Starcatcher, Once & The Book of Mormon on this...

You either love her or hate her. I kinda love her. She's my neighbor and guilty pleasure. :pAfter the Brouhaha at the Senate So I’m scanning through my newsfeed. Scanning, scanning, scanning. Laughing...making fun... ...scanning...scanning, breaking into laughter. Breaking into a resounding “ANODAW??” Scanning, laughing, slightly amused, entertained, annoyed, until I become increasingly alarmed at the nasty... Continue Reading →

04.21.12. I don’t get it. But I normally, almost always, feel it.  I don’t get why I get so sad on my birthday. But I do. And I guess the moment I acknowledge it (and the fact that it’s an insanely unreasonable feeling), I’ll be able to move towards more productive and less destructive emotions... Continue Reading →

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  Tornado-scare aside, I completed my Funeral Celebrant Certification Program! While that sounds a little odd/morbid, I am actually quite excited to begin this new chapter of my life. I'm not sure if I can publish photos just yet...besides, I'm not sure people really want to see that. Ha-ha. So, instead, let me... Continue Reading →
