Today I realized it’s been such a long time since I put on my heels and made up my face. No, it’s not that I let myself get frumpy and not nice looking again but well, I’ve learned to love my yoga pants and tops a little too much haha. That was like 30 whole [...]

Today was a cheat day. But….to be fair, I realized I am learning how to eat in moderation. Yey me. Granted that on occasion I still feel the urge to binge, I am more aware of it now. For example, today I opened a bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos and guess what….. I didn’t finish [...]

Sometimes, just sometimes, I wish I could use that excuse. Harhar. I mean, um, I’d love to send out a baby shower invitation and have a valid reason to gain weight and not feel guilty about it. Okay, not that I’ve really gained weight over the past few days (or should I say weeks) but [...]

If I had it my way (not that I’m not grateful for my work ) I’d spend every single day in this place, I tell ya. The 90 minutes or so that I get to spend there, whether once, twice or thrice a week (more if I’m lucky) is pure joy, I swear So….my new [...]

I have always said I would die if I lived in a country with snow. Seriously. I cannot take cold weather, even for a few days, I tell ya.  This whole week has been cold and it’s seriously, seriously driving me up the wall. Egaad. I dunno…I must be a prime candidate for S.A.D., or [...]

The past few days have been very stormy ones all over Manila and for many, it has been quite difficult and nerve-wracking.

For the first time EVER, my phone died on me yesterday. No, it didn’t break…I just ran out of battery. Haha. Seriously though, I think my friends will attest to the fact that I am one of those people who seem to be perpetually attached to her phone. My cellphone is kinda like an extra [...]

Dear Rice, Why oh why are you so yummy? Steamed or fried, with toppings or plain, you always, always seem to make me want more. I crave for you in ways I don’t often crave for other stuff, except maybe the occasional pink fuzzy drink I love oh so much. You make me want more [...]

Tamaditis – a made up word by me to describe the current state I am in. It is characterized by extreme feelings of being tamad, the Filipino word for lazy. Sigh. I swear. I have never felt this lazy and unmotivated in my life. I do not want to do anything. I do not want [...]

Every once in a while, I feel stuck and stagnated in life.  Don’t get me wrong…it’s  not that I’m not grateful for things that have come my way, but sometimes I kinda feel like I haven’t moved forward into my next life stage. Take for one my choice to stick with part-time teaching and being [...]
