Winter Break 2025
Nothing fancy about this year’s winter break, but we’re grateful to see family again and escape the hustle of city life. The ice appeared thin, but it was stronger than it looked. Small catamaran boats couldn’t pass through it without risking damage to their aluminum surface. We visited the cemetery, and I learned that in…

What’s the occasion?
What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain. I hate it when people ask what or who the reason is for wearing makeup or simply looking good. Can’t we just normalize giving a compliment without asking someone why they are well-dressed or looking bright today? It annoys me a lot whenever someone comments…

Braking Bad
If there is one thing that every car owner should know aside from changing tires, it is changing the brakes. In my opinion, it is a very useful skill in life and it is also cheaper than sending the car to the workshop. For two weeks ago, I had to change the break pads and…

Christmas 2024
For the first time, we’ve celebrated Christmas at home. Every year we used to be with the other members of the family during Christmas Eve. Since it’s just us, we had totally controll of our time and we could decide what to eat on Christmas Eve. The preparation took time as this was my first…

Energy Draining
These past few weeks have been a roller coaster ride for me. I thought that it’s going to be smooth days ahead, but I was wrong. My patience and sanity was put into test! Last Thursday when my shift’s done and was about to drive home, I found one of the tires of my car…

Christmas Party and Weekend Staycation
Last weekend was my company’s Christmas party. This is one of the things that I’m grateful for this season. It’s been a hectic start this autumn and winter because of the flu and busy schedule at work and home. No matter how I love my work, I needed a break from it too and of…

Weight Lifting
What is your favorite form of physical exercise? Strength training especially weight lifting is what I do at least twice a week. For me, there’s thrill and excitement in this kind of exercise because it tests not only your physical capability but also your mind power. Then there are times when every thing is smooth…

Tables Have Turned
For some weeks ago, the EENT (ears, eyes, nose and throat) specialist referred me to an MRI examination of my brain and my temporal bone. It’s because I’ve been experiencing sudden dizziness/vertigo. The specialist wanted to rule out cancer and other form of diseases in my head because she haven’t seen anything wrong with me…

A Colorful Mess
I’m sharing some of my 6 year old’s obra maestra. The living room might be “messy” when she’s in her creative bubble and I might have been a bit of a cranky mom because of the mess, but I’m glad that she’s enjoying painting and doing what she loves. She can use almost anything as…
