I am writing on my Blackberry for the first time now. That’s how desperately I need to vent this out. I figured the only way I can sleep tonight is if I talk about it — or perhaps write about it. This will be about you again, Scotchie. Because until now I hear your name […]

My Dog Owns My House
I figured there is no other way for me to get over this loss than to pour my heart out and not give a damn. So here is another post for you, baby boy. Tomorrow’s holiday gives me one more day to drain myself of sadness. And then I’ll get out of this mess and […]

What Does Dog Heaven Look Like?
Warning: emotional I wanted it to be a happy story — as it really was, and I wanted to tell it from the beginning. I’ve already started from how I chose him, how I took him home that blessed day when he was only a month and a half old. But now I guess I’ll […]

I got pretty excited with all my #SmartBEP discoveries in my previous post that I totally forgot to mention this. Aside from the concert, those people in our area had another show.
Although a fan of the Black Eyed Peas, I had absolutely no intentions of watching them perform live in Manila last October 25. I’ve already set in my mind that I’d rather put my 10 grand elsewhere. Until around 5:00pm of the concert day, when an officemate presented quite an interesting offer.Free VIP A tickets. […]
I’ve been hearing so many good things about Mercato Centrale at Bonifacio Global City. My sisters have been bugging me to go there for weeks and weeks. So finally, despite my splitting headache last night, we drove to Fort to check it out.
Tagaytay is one of those places we people from Manila go to for an “instant” vacation. With the rain coming and going from June to October — you never know when it’s going to pour these days — there aren’t really a lot of activities we could do outdoors. So last month, for my dad’s […]
