One of the books I recently read is Paulo Coelho’s Manuscript Found in Accra. I’ve read a good number of this man’s books – some I’ve loved, some were so-so and some were just blah for me. I decided to give this new one a shot and was a bit disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, […]
In a month from now, it will be my father’s death anniversary. Two years. I can’t believe that it’s already been that long. It’s been too long and I’m lost without you What am I gonna do, instead of me needing you, wanting you… Just last week my sisters and I were talking about how […]
My sister had a copy of the movie Something Borrowed in her laptop. I heard of the movie before but was not really interested in it until I became a fan of Ginny Goodwin as Snow White/Mary Margaret on Once Upon a Time. After becoming a fan, I just had to see the movie. Something […]
Ally McBeal was my favorite show back in the 90s. I followed that show from the first season to the very end. I loved the crazy characters, the out-of-this-world imaginary things that happen in the minds of the people in the show, the music and everything else. One of my favorite seasons of the show […]
Almost a decade ago, I was introduced to the world of blogging. Blogging was nothing like the way it is today. It wasn’t about getting famous, it wasn’t about posing in the latest fashion or reviewing the latest of anything. It was about life: people shared their lives, their experiences, their innermost thoughts and found […]
Consider the implications. We think we know what we want, but we can never really know until we’ve got it. And sometimes when we have, we discover we never really wanted it in the first place – but then it’s too late. Alexandra Potter’s book Be Careful What You Wish For is about exactly that […]
This is a photo of football player Nate Burkey of Kaya FC as he leaves Emperador Stadium after a UFL game against Stallion Sta Lucia FC last February. I was going through some photos to post for today and found this one taken by my sister when I took her along to watch a game. […]
One of the books I’ve finished recently is The Last Single Girl by Catie Quinn. It is part of her Brew Ha Ha series of books that include It’s in His Kiss, Worth the Fall, The Catching Kind and Love in Tune. I haven’t read the other books yet but considering that I enjoyed this […]
I’m a big fan of the TV show Scandal. Apart from the political issues that they present on the show, I love the fact that you never know what’s going to happen. By the time you think you’ve figured it out the writers take everything in a totally different direction that you didn’t expect. There […]
A month ago I saw the movie version of this book. I actually didn’t know that it was based on a book until a friend of mine told me about it. Since I was a little disappointed with how the movie turned out I decided read the book instead. It reminds me of something I […]
Sigh…isn’t he just adorable? I’ve had a crush on Jesse Spencer for as long as I can remember. I remember watching him in this movie where he played a swimmer (this was in his younger years) and I thought that he was really cute. Years later he played the male lead in the movie Uptown […]
Are you already working? If yes, what do you do for a living? Is it your dream job or would you rather be doing something else? I’ve been a college graduate since 1998. For the past 13 years I have been blessed with a means to make a living to support myself and help support […]
Elie Saab has always been my favorite foreign designer. I love how his designs are so soft, so flowing and so feminine. Of all the designers, his silhouettes are just so beautiful. I sometimes visit his official website to see what’s latest in his collection but for the most part, I look forward to the […]
During the recent power outages due to the typhoons Santi and Tino, I had the opportunity to finally catch up on my reading. With no distractions from the TV and the net, I picked up a couple of books from my reading list and just started reading away. I ended up finishing two books from […]
