Bulacan Exile 2012
I was never a fan of Holy Week. You get four days of vacation but hardly any establishment is open. My family never goes out of town during this time because my parents are so busy with church work. I decided to take a self-exile at Annabs’ house in Bulacan. I’ve never been there and...
Thai Cooking Class
I returned to Thailand for the fourth time (yes, fourth) last week for a much-needed R&R with my mom and tita. The usual shopping and eating was, of course, penciled in. But I want to make it more memorable by doing something I had never done during my past trips. So I decided to...
When Your Home Is Being Violated
All elbizens (people who studied/lived in UPLB campus) have the same thing to say about the recent killings that have been happening around campus – in our time, LB was safe. We would walk at wee hours to buy mami, siomai, or what have you, without having the fear that we can end up dead....
Maple Oatmeal Muffins
I was checking out the contents of our pantry one day and I saw we still had one unopened can of maple syrup from Canada. It’s been in there since November 2010 and I thought it might spoil if I don’t use it right away. So using my AllRecipes app on my phone, I searched...
Tomato Pesto Cream Penne
I’m being an adult these days, which means I’m actually taking the time to prepare my baon for work. I picked out easy recipes that I can whip out without much effort since I’m usually so tired and sleepy every work night. One of the easy recipes that I did was the Tomato Pesto Cream...
When The Going Gets Tough, Start Counting
Things have not been so easy these past few days. I don’t know if I should blame it on migraine or on PMS or the fact that I cannot sleep (27-hour days). I read somewhere on Twitter that people should count their blessings when they’re feeling bad about something. So I explored Pinterest and made...
Why So Blue?
I went to the spa and had my nails done yesterday. I told the pedicurist to paint my nails blue. I’m 25 and I thought, by the time I’m 35, it may seem age-inappropriate to have blue nails. I want to do things people can get away with while they’re still young. I also want...
The Attack of the Gastroenteritis
I’ve been suffering from gastroenteritis and/or gastritis for about two weeks already. Gastroenteritis is like a stomach flu where the patient experiences abdominal cramps, diarrhea and nausea. Gastritis, on the other hand, is the inflammation of the stomach and usually happens when you’re acidic. The first three days being literally sick to my stomach...
The 2012 List of Things To Do
We’re eight days into 2012 and I realized I haven’t listed down goals or plans or anything that might give my year some direction. Last year, I didn’t make any resolution or plan because I thought I’d be going to Canada mid-year so it’s really pointless to make plans. But I didn’t go so I...
