Finished Strong
Another school year has ended. Now it’s officially summer for me. Well, at least I have summer break from school now. Still a reason to be happy because I finally have more time to my family and myself. I never thought in the beginning that I would survive this school year because of some personal…
Not my Battle
Image courtesy of fotografierende This week, I was verbally assaulted by my friend’s wife. My friend and I have been friends since college days and that was almost twenty years ago. The wife asked who am I on my friend’s Messenger account. I answered her politely, but she won’t believe me. She said that I’m…
Bird Spotting
I saw this beautiful creature today. I’m glad that my bird feeder is attracting birds. It only means that they’re beginning to trust us.
Treasures
It started with a pinecone. Then there came the twig. And then another pinecone. And another pinecone More pinecones! and baby pinecones! Stones were also added I see Plus a small piece of wood and another piece of tree. Then one afternoon I asked her if I can throw these away. She replied, “No mama,…
Radiotheraphy Clinicals
Time flies, indeed when you love what you’re doing. My radiation theraphy (radiotheraphy) clinical has already come to an end and there are still lots of stuff to learn and master. Three weeks in the department is not enough. I’m sure going to miss the patients, the staffs and the linac (linear accelerator) machine. However,…
At what cost?
Some say that dreaming and dreams are free and that should be enough to reach it. My parents, mentors and friends have actually said the same. Of course I also did. But when I became independent and started deciding for my life, I have never looked back at dreaming the way I did when I…

I was like, they should just shut their mouth and focus on other things rather than hating on other…

The government said that the risk for spreading and getting sick by the disease (Covid 19) is smaller in children compared to adults. That’s…
The Negativity We Need these Days
I got tested for the virus last week. Thank God it’s negative! But as I’ve told my hubby, we should still stay cautious and careful. The reasons why I got tested is first, my hubby have been abroad two weeks before the lock down and community quarantine and after his trip he developed some flu…
Pasalubong
Pasalubong is a Filipino term for gift/s usually from people who have been on a trip to other places or even just after a trip to the grocery. It could be anything from snacks to toys. The one who is buying the pasalubong does it out of love and expects nothing in return. So, as I’ve said…
Voracious Eaters
Sometimes, I wonder where on earth do the food balls go that fast because this weekend I placed 6 pieces of bird food balls and then by Monday, it’s totally gone! So, yesterday I bought a pack of balls again and put it on the feeder. I know and I’ve seen before that small birds…
