It’s been a while! There have been many things to feel unhappy about recently, but there were still moments to be grateful for despite the past heavy months.
Kenneth and I went to a community market and saw Bea, my illustrator friend, with her sister, also an artist. They were selling art prints and other cutesy artsy stuff. Aside from the prints and stickers, her sister also offers 5-minute live portraits for $5, and that’s what caught my interest. We had our portraits drawn and it was super cute!

The following week while we were doing our couples deck session, we drew a wild card and it prompted us to draw each other’s portraits for only 1 minute!

Haha that was fun.
I am currently relistening to Mark Manson’s ‘backwards law’ podcast episode, and I found myself involuntarily reaching for my copy of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck, which my sister gave as a bon voyage gift when we moved to Canada in 2018.

My sister filled this book with pictures of us, photos of our favorite movie/tv characters, inside jokes, and sweet messages. I haven’t finished this book yet, which means I haven’t read everything she had written down, and I love that there are still sweet notes to uncover after 6 years.

Hello and welcome!!
It took a lot of back and forth to start this members-only series, because if I’m going to be honest, I cannot think of a single person who will pay for the stuff I’m going to share. BUT, I guess I’mma have to tryyy. There are a couple of reasons why I wanted to start this:

Day off finally! Random thoughts:
A collection of things I want to be reminded of.
🎧 The first half of life is a huge and unavoidable mistake.
📖 I have walked through many lives, some of them my own..
I miss hearing Kenneth say, “Wowwww..” everytime nagluluto ako. Medyo nakukulitan pa ko sa kanya dati kasi araw-araw nya kong tinatanong, “Anong pagkain natin?” Pero ngayon, wala nang nagtatanong ng ganun. Nami-miss ko yung dependency nya sakin pagdating sa food. Yung dating annoying, hinahanap-hanap ko na ngayon. Ugh life.
