Advocacy: Elections, passion nights and a joke by Jim Paredes
Let me bring you inside my mind. My thinking on who to vote for this coming elections goes like this.
From a whole country point of view, I am of the opinion that the Aquino Presidency has made rather major strides in a lot of things. The economy, peace in Mindanao, anti corruption, etc..We still have a lot of problems. Many more needs to be done...continue reading>>

A Blissful Treat For A Working Girl (by: Body Bliss)
I
was given a blissful 60minute head-to-toe aromatherapy massage using 3 combined
techniques – Thai, Swedish and Shiatsu. Kathy,
my masseuse is indeed the best! She knows exactly what to do, the pressure she
puts to her massages were just perfect, consistent and ahhh... what’s the word?
Yes, rejuvenating....Continue reading>>
Ohh Sweet Life!=)
Can you imagine a life without cakes, chocolates and ice cream? I can’t...Continue reading>>
But seeing her again after a short while that we haven’t seen each other― a change; a new beginning, a stronger heart was born. Not only once did I shed a tear with her narrating of her story; but I looked at her and her eyes are dry. She no longer weeps, no longer weeps for the past...Continue reading>>
From My Personal Journal: Conversations with GOD
I talked to God like I would to a friend when I pray. I told him about my usual prayer. The only prayer I asked of him for myself. Then suddenly pools of liquid spring to my eyes. They trickled down my face and would never stop. I poured my heart out to God. And he encouraged me as if saying;
“My child, I am here. Tell me everything. I saw you trying to numb your heart for a long time. I am aware that you haphazardly picked yourself up and glued your heart to piece them back together, put a smile on your face, walked to the world nonchalant about your pains. But that’s not what I want for you...Continue reading>>
The I Do Project:20 Things I Want To Tell Engaged Women

of two good forgivers. Because every marriage is made up of two sinners.
(Romans 3:23)

Advocacy: May Yabang ang Pinoy!
I’m sporting my new priced accessory. Yes!I’m referring to that abaca bracelet around my wrist. It’s a priced accessory not because of its cost at Php50 it’s the cheapest bracelet I’ve worn. But it’s more than just a bracelet and the value attached to it is not at all cheap...Continue reading>>
The I Do Project: Video Series #1
So I told you on my The I Do Project: So Tell Me What’s your Love Language? post about a
friend who tasked me to help him plan his marriage proposal to
his girlfriend.
So, while I stayed home calming a troubled heart yesterday day. No, it
wasn't
broken but it was skipping a beat literally, I had trouble breathing.No,
don't worry, I'm used to having shortness of breaths every once in
awhile,besides that's not the story for this entry.
Now going back, while in that state I decided to seriously search for weddings and proposal videos, that's all I did half of my day. To start with here's a sample of a marriage proposal video...Continue reading>>

On Life Lessons: A Letter to My Son, on Starting Out In Life
Dear Seth,
You are young, and life has yet to take its
toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles
and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by long hours of
thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life.
For this, be thankful. You are at a
wonderful stage of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come,
but they are not without their costs and perils...Continue reading>>
So Tell Me What’s your Love Language?
What do I
really know about love and romance?
Advocacy: Let’s Talk About Garbage and Those Little Packets
I’m NOT your most makabayan at makakalikasan kind of girl, I don’t try to project myself that way. Besides, I’m quite certain somehow in my own mindless ways I have sure contributed in pushing Mother Earth to destruction ― I’m trying to internalize the intensity of the emotion of what I just said and I can feel it’s a sad thought; it’s mind-boggling. Can you feel or somehow imagine what I feel? I can taste the bitter truth, I hope you can too...Continue reading>>
If it’s Love:Morning Reverie (courtesy to the song that woke me up today) ♥
The morning is cold. The earth’s temperature dropped I think after the many days of raining we still did not get enough sunlight to warm the earth; I reached for my blanket, ohh, I love its warmth, it’s heaven. Immediately, I’m back to sleep. A few moments later, something calls me from my sleep. I’m awaken by hmmm, what is this scent? Ohh, vanilla, the scent of vanilla oil from my oil burner is touching my nose. I open my eyes, looked outside my window through my curtain still lying in bed. Ohh, it’s morning but it’s still dark outside...Continue reading>>
Advocacy: Anyone Can (One arm reach-one): A tribute to the Volunteers of the Monsoon Rain
Kamusta ka na Pilipinas kong Mahal?
How are you guys? I haven’t written anything in a week. But it’s ok, I’m not at all frustrated. And no, this is not a writer’s block it’s too early for that. And, I did not go on a whole week vacation like the sun. In fact, what I did was far from going on a vacation at all. But no complains I enjoyed every minute of it...Continue reading >>
Advocacy: A call for Help (The Monsoon Rain)– August 2012
I’m trying to write but couldn’t, I’m browsing the net to find an inspiration instead. But my heart is drench in worries. Should I be glad that I’m home and I’m safe?
When I look out my window, I can now see 2 pools of water; on my right side is the swimming pool, and on my left is a pool of rain-water accumulated in a vacant lot outside our village. I haven’t seen the other parts of Manila; and somehow I don’t dare see...Continue reading>>
