Easter’s Debbie Downer
Debbie Downer once again. I’m sorry. The Facebook status messages are really getting me down. Everybody is off to their Maundy Thursday to Easter Sunday holiday. Being the free (meaning no leave-filing necessary) vacation for Um, this is the time of year that we head off to the beach or drive out of town with [...]
First Time Home-Buying: The Appraisal and The Floor!
After getting the email from my loan officer early last week the she had ordered the appraisal of the home we intend to purchase, I thought, yes, we’ll know for sure when we’re moving within the week. Well, the week came and went with no news. To make it go faster just in my head, [...]
Thank You for Smoking
I watched this movie years ago and loved it. I just had to get past the fact that Katie Holmes was in it. LOL. This reminds me, I have yet to read the novel. Anyhoo, I saw this video most probably over a year ago being circulated on Facebook and I thought it was hilarious. [...]
Space Dreams
In the frequent occasion that I day dream of having loads of cash, I just got into thinking on traveling – where I would go, how long I’ll stay, the languages I’ll learn to be a citizen of the world. Very nice. Then I remembered one particular line from the speech my grandfather prepared for my [...]
The Beach
I’ve had that defunct 90’s girl band, All Saints’, Pure Shores on loop for a week or so now. I think I mentioned in a previous post that this is usually that time of the year when I was back in the Philippines that I’d be brewing up beach trips and making them happen. I [...]
Magnetic Poetry: Colorful Seasons
Occasionally, creativity befalls upon me, when the words just flow through my veins with such power and majesty, or when images come together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Occasionally, this happens in the kitchen (though this happens mostly while in the shower). Thank you, Magnetic Poetry, for the words on my fridge.
Faith
I had a really bad experience with a certain company today while on my job hunt. I think it is safe to say that this is the first time that I have ever been discriminated for being an immigrant. I will (or will not) write about this incident in another blog post. But that incident [...]
De-stressors: What’s Your Antidote for Stress
What are your de-stressors? Our brother gave me this… thing. I am not sure what it’s called but it is a de-stressor. You put it on your head and slide it down your scalp. It gives you shivers down your spine, but it’s good shivers – one that would be tingly from inside-out. I found [...]
The Breaking Point
So, the rain came pouring…in the beginning of spring. I seriously bawled my eyes out to sleep. Little Princess and Captain Awesome on video chat triggered it. I just couldn’t bear being away from them anymore. Summer has started on their side of the world. School’s out. This is the time of the year when [...]
First Time Home-Buying: The Paperwork and The Trees
I realized that with a new home where you are directly buying from the builder, it’s not when they accept the offer that you really feel the excitement. Afterall, it’s the builder’s sales agent who gave you the price anyway. It would be up to you to challenge that, in which you risk insulting the [...]
Twenty-Three and Beyond
When you’re twenty-three, you think you can keep up this level of performance forever. – Survivor, Chuck Palahniuk It’s funny how a week or so ago, Ms. B and I were talking about missing being 23. I am not sure if there’s something magical about the number, but I’ve heard a couple of songs about [...]
