It’s good to have short road trips every once in a while just to unwind from a stressful work week. Nature and food gives natural calm (to me!). Growing up in Rizal, what is there beyond Cainta, Taytay and Antipolo? What else can you do? Just an hour-2 drive, there’s a lot more to explore…
St. Padre Pio Relics visits Manila
When you are in a lot of difficulty, PRAY, HOPE and DON’T WORRY. 8/3/2018: Lucky to be able to attend the First Friday mass held at the Chapel of Annunciation, ABS-CBN, celebrated by Fr. Tito Caluag with guest priest from the Sanctuary of St. Pio San Giovanni, Rotondo, Italy, Capuchin Friar Fr. Gian-Maria DiGiorgio….
Limelight
Random: For 9 years I worked in the entertainment industry, reality is, people we hail on TV and movies are not gods and goddesses. The known are not perfect and ideal as we want or see them to be. People working behind the cameras possess a personality developed over the years. Some are naturally kind,…
The Encounter
It could have been face to face or a tight clingy hug… but thank heavens it was just some sort of “holding hands” coz we barely knew each other. We were strangers to one another… So here I am, making a dramatic intro when in fact I just want to share about…
Remember
When you decide to remove the negatives, the positives continuously come along. When you act with kindess and generosity, not as front or mask, you’ll be blessed abundantly. When you seek for truth and not easily swayed by gossips and opinions, you’ll find peace of mind and the reward to sleep soundly. When you practice…
Extremes
Confident… but too shy when in an unfamiliar crowd Happy… but not easily contented Tough… but emotional and sensitive when treated harshly and wrongly Goal-setter… but afraid to do something wrong Prayerful… but a worrier Independent… but dependent still in some ways Motherly… but wants to be protected and taken cared of too like…
Bits and Pieces
At times we feel broken, but we have to move on and make ourselves whole again. At times we feel we’re all over the place, and we want to have some sort of focus, identity or form. At times we neglect the small things, but these little ones, all together, make the big picture. …
Araneta Center Cubao Banchetto
You know it’s Christmas anytime soon when the famous Araneta Center Cubao Christmas Tree is finally up. To me, Cubao will always be the common place of people from the metro and the provinces (since bus terminals to different part of North and South Luzon are located within this area of Quezon City). There are around…
Hit That Target!
Last November 6, my Adventure Buddy insisted to take me all the way to a far part of Quezon City just to try Archery (If I don’t know how to go to a place, I consider it far already). Coming from Cainta Rizal, it took us roughly an hour to reach our destination (via private car):…
Jersey Boys Manila
I have always loved musical plays. The combination of singing and acting excites the hidden performer in me. Growing up, theater acting, directing, or simply singing on stage became a passion and a confidence booster (mostly for school). But those are nothing compared to the world class and professional performances I have watched on stage. I am…
Taytay Food Trip
Just beside Cainta, my hometown, is Taytay in Rizal. Aside from being the 2nd most populated municipality in terms of residents, it is known as the Woodworks and Garments Capital of the Philippines. A lot of businesses are booming too, food ventures in particular (and the same progress are happening in Cainta and Antipolo area)….
I am a Princess.
Like most girls, I have always loved Disney stories (and Disneyland)! More so, all the princesses and their happy ever afters. Fa Mulan has always been my favorite Disney character. In fact, I have watched Mulan 1 and 2 more than 10 times perhaps, and almost memorized all the songs. She may not be labeled…
