Spit it Out!

When my brother asked me if I wanted to go with him in an art fair, I thought I was going to see bunch of paintings just like when you go to a gallery or museum. But upon arriving at 10a Alabama , I was surprise to see booths that offers all sorts of things. We went straight to check Sir Denver's (my brother's supervisor) booth. My brother Ian (right) with Sir Denver. Sir Denver is selling his paintings together with his friends from Thingamabobs  that sells kikay stuff. Starbucks cup transformed by Sir Denver. After that we opted to check the other booths. I was looking for something to buy at Krafty Pirate I bought these cool earrings from Krafty Pirate. One of the booths that we checked was  Aromateria . I found there items really interesting, they sell Beer soaps, Coffee soaps, etc. They also sell stick perfumes. Plants were also a great find at the fair Since my brother and I have sweet tooth, we made sure that we bought ...

My friends and I are fond of anything Korean. Korean artists, Korean movies, Korean dramas, Korean songs and,of course, Korean cuisines. And so last Thursday, we ( Carla , Sarah , Mavic and I) had our lunch at Don Day Fresh Restaurant in Timog. Don Day is an eat-all-you-can Korean buffet at a very affordable price! You can eat unlimited Korean dishes for as low as 257 pesos only! Korean dish like C hapchae is served along with other Korean dishes.  There are a lot of Korean dishes to choose from. Too bad, I'm not that familiar with the names of other dishes. Fruits are also available for dessert. They also have Fried Kamote (not in photo) and their own version of Buchi (right lower part) for dessert. Soups are also offered. There are lots of green vegetables and dipping you can have for your wrapping. You can have these only if you avail their Samgeopsal and Chadolbaegi Buffet Meals. You can also enjoy unlimited grilled pork belly wi...

It's every book lover's dream to meet their favorite authors. And I'm extremely blessed to meet one of my favorites last Saturday. No words can express how happy I am to finally meet (and hug) the man who inspired me for so many years <3 This is the same caption I wrote on my fb account. Mitch Albom . The man behind "Tuesdays With Morrie", "The Five People You Meet in Heaven", "For One More Day", "Have A Little Faith", and "Time Keeper" had his first book signing event, here in the Philippines, for his latest novel "The First hone Call From Heaven", last February 22, 2014. Mitch Albom's latest book (As of 2014) With my friend Airina while waiting for Mitch Albom Mitch Albom has made a great impact in my life and so, upon learning his visit, I shouldn't miss the opportunity of meeting him.  I went to the said event with my friend Airina, and knowing that Mitch has a lot of Filipino...

God has a various ways of speaking to us.  Aside from the Bible and the priest's homily during mass, He usually speaks to me through songs. And here are the songs that I believe God used to convey His message to me. A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. My first blog post was actually about this song. Just check my post regarding how God touched me with this song. Panalangain by Monstar88 . I was in a jeepney on my way to work when this song suddenly popped into my head. After singing (in my head) the song's first verse, I just smiled and said, " Thank you, Lord. Yan din ang panalangin ko eh (That is also my prayer)." Burn by Tina Arena . I was cleaning our house when God talked to me through this song. My favorite part is the line that says, "Be anyone you want to be bring to life your fantasies but I want something in return... I want you to burn, burn for me baby like a candle in my night. Oh burn, burn for me... burn for me." It...

One of the few pictures I have with papa when I was a baby :) I grew up not spending a lot of time with my father. When I was a kid, my uncles were the ones who stood as my father for papa is working abroad. I was grade 2 at that time, it was my first year to study in Libya. My Father is the one who received the award with me. When I reach 7 years old, my mother brought me to Libya (where they're both working) so we could be together as a family.  But even in Libya, we still couldn't spend more time with him due to his crazy schedule at work, until came the time he stayed in there company on weekdays and went home only during weekends. My mom would always tell me, "Ako lagi nyong kasama, si papa nyo minsan lang, kaya sya sasama sa'yo paakyat ng stage." When we returned here in the Philippines for good, we left papa in Libya. They've decided that he'd work and mama will stay with us and guide as a we grow.  My father would have his vac...

If you're given a chance to swap your mother and have a new one, will you grab it? Me... No! Even if you'll give a million dollars! With Mama during my graduation :) My mom... She's not perfect. We argue (over small stuff) at times. She nags me at times (and I nag her too :P ). But that won't bulldoze the thousand of times she made me feel loved. My mom...She has a lot of roles in my life... She's my teacher , she is the one who taught me things that aren't taught in school. Like how can a handsome guy sit beside me in the bus(haha!). She's my personal nurse , she takes care of me whenever I'm sick. She's my cook , I couldn't go out of our house without eating because even though she is not good at cooking, she'd prepare something for me. At Manila Hotel after my oath taking She's my driver , when I was in college she would fetch me at school when my class ends super late. She's my clown/storyteller , she tells joke...

I was never a party girl. Sure, I go to birthday parties, but the kind with gleaming lights, deafening music, and leaping bodies on the floor... Never (OK! I've tried but it never turned me on). Now... I couldn't end my week without attending a party. Yep! I'm a party addict now! I love the loud music (so loud, I can sing at the top of my lungs without bothering anyone), I love the lights, and I love the crowd. It just feels right! I feel free! But unlike any other party, the one I'm attending starts at 8 am (Yup! 8 in the morning!).  Well, it doesn't really matter whether it is in the morning, afternoon, or in the evening. What's important is the feeling I experience when I'm there. The feeling of getting high... The feeling of getting addicted... Yes, addicted. Addicted to God.  Addicted to His love. To His promises. To His works. The Feast is a weekly Catholic Prayer Meeting of Light of Jesus Family . It usually starts with the Holy Eucharist fol...
