A few weeks ago I was talking to a friend from France who commented on how I am obsessed with learning a different language. While it is true that I am interested in learning a new one, I’m not obsesses to the point that I would spend so much to take classes. I have, however, […]
If it hasn’t been obvious to anybody yet, I love TV. I spend more time watching TV shows than I do movies. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that as a result of my being a couch potato, there are several shows that I follow and characters that I love to “ship” as partners. To […]
One of the songs I love that originated from the 50’s is the song In The Still of the Night. I remember listening to a cover version done by the Beach Boys when I was younger and couldn’t help but like the song. From what I’ve read, there are many versions of this song which […]
I can’t say that I’m a huge fan of Coldplay. I like maybe one or two songs and that’s about it. I can, however, say that I have this radar that is usually aware of where there are handsome guys — a hot guy radar that seems to have malfunctioned where Coldplay is concerned. Have […]
One of my favorite TV shows ended in 2012 but I only got to see the finale over the Christmas holiday. The cable channel that carries this show started a bit late so I only got to see it end in 2013. Better late than never! I’ve always been a fan of the show since […]
When I was younger, I had a “pen pal” from Australia. She was the niece of a friend of my parents who was from there. I always thought that it was amazing that I could communicate with someone from a different part of the world. I loved the idea that my letters, my words could […]
I’m a bit of a memories collector. I like to keep things that hold good memories for me. It hasn’t been easy to do in the past few years because they tend to just stay hidden in envelopes that I never open and I eventually decide to throw out. Late last year I found out […]
Last month the winner of The Glee Project Season 2 was announced and welcomed into the Glee family. Blake Jenner impressed the judges/mentors from the start and by the end of the show people were saying that he is a star, which was exactly what they all thought the show needed. Blake is not as […]
Back in 2009, I was invited by a friend to take an online course in Creative Thinking with the University of New South Wales (Australia). It was a pilot project of the College of St. Benilde and I took it along with several students from both Australia and the Philippines. It was such a good […]
What kind of phone/gadget do you use? Do you use Android or Apple? I know a lot of people put a lot of stock in the “image” that goes with using an Apple gadget as opposed to using Android but for me, it’s a matter of practicality and function. Both types have their pros and […]
There was a time when my gadget wish list comprised of Sony products. This was before I realized how much of a hassle it was for me to have my Sony products repaired when I had problems. It just wasn’t practical for me. I discovered Samsung when I first bought a D900i phone. When I […]
Cookies and Cream is my favorite ice cream flavor. I remember way back when there was still a 2001 Flavors Ice Cream place I would always order a combination of vanilla ice cream and Oreos because the actual ice cream flavor didn’t exist yet. I know that there are different Cookies and Cream versions depending […]
The latest season of The Voice in the US was something that I was not particularly excited about. It marked the return of original coaches Christina Aguilera and Ceelo Green after a season of having them replaced by Shakira and Usher. I liked the latter rather than the former so having the original coaches back […]
I went to visit my doctor a couple of days ago just to be sure that things were going fine with me in spite of my thyroid condition. I’ve been feeling weird these past few weeks and I thought it was better to be safe than sorry so I went in for a checkup. Thankfully, […]
