The pandemic has made many of us even more dependent on the internet and on our mobile phones, tablets, and laptops. Personally, I do not think I have ever seen as many streaming movies and TV shows before compared to during this pandemic. All the sleepless nights for me have resulted in streaming so many […]

I’ve moved around a lot in my years of my existence. I’ve lived in several places but there is only one place that I still call home: our family home in the south of the Metro. I know it’s cliché but there really is no place like home. I grew up there, my formative years […]

The past week has been nothing short of eventful. As most of the world knows, Taal Volcano spewed out ash last Sunday afternoon, blanketing towns as far as Metro Manila with the grey powder. By the end of the day, Alert Level 4 was raised, warning the public that a major eruption was imminent in […]

My hair has been a big issue for me these past few years because of the gray hair that keeps popping up. I wouldn’t mind it much if I didn’t look so stressed all the time and having that hair color seems to make it worse. I’ve taken to experimenting with box hair colors and […]

One of the things that I have always been fascinated with has been stories about royalty. I’ve read the books, watched the movies and TV shows related to royalty through the years, with most of my interest being with British royalty. For the most part, the stories I’ve devoured have been of historical figures. Learning […]

The lockdowns happening all over the world has resulted in many highs and lows. It’s not surprising that people feel a surge of contradicting emotions from everything that has been happening everywhere. I have been working from home, but it’s hard to completely focus when you see so many things on TV and read about […]

Dance is something that I’ve loved since I was a little girl. I would have taken lessons and taken that interest seriously if my parents didn’t think it would distract me from my studies but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love it any less today. I have so much appreciation for great dancing and […]

The past week has been troubling for me. I feel that with all the things that were on my mind I needed to do something to make myself feel better and lift my spirits up. I think we all need to do something every now and then to uplift ourselves and get us in a […]

Religion and I have a complicated relationship. I was raised a Roman Catholic. As I got older I’ve attended service for Born Again Christian groups. I still go to Catholic church during the major holidays but for the most part, I don’t anymore. I may not be perfect in the sense that I am not […]

It has been a while since I did a Sunday Update post. The last one was, if I am not mistaken, during the first month of the lockdowns here in the Philippines due to the pandemic. Those were easier times. Since then, it has been a challenging and stressful nine (gasp!) months…so far. No one […]

My nephew is currently in his dinosaur phase. There was a time when he was obsessed with cars. Then he progressed to construction vehicles (oh how he loved his excavator). He then moved on to trains (specifically Thomas and Friends) and now it’s dinosaurs. This has been the longest obsession so far; he’s been at […]

After a long wait, I finally got to watch Crazy Rich Asians over the weekend! I’ve been wanting to watch this movie since it was announced and I was actually looking forward to seeing it on the first day that it started showing in local cinemas but unfortunately, I was severely under the weather at […]

If I can give one word to best describe what the past week has been for me it would have to be this: exhausted.  This past week has been all about a trip to Davao for work to attend an industry-related convention with my boss and our directors, along with a couple of other co-workers. […]

They are coming back! They said they would and now it’s confirmed that they will!  If any of you have read my post on the Boyzone concert that I attended in August last year, you’d remember that I was hoping that the boys would come back for one last show. For a moment there my […]
