  • Update: Unfortunately, Babbel isn’t offering live classes anymore. I’m taking French classes again! I started posting them again on TikTok, so I’m currently receiving questions on how I’m learning the language, what platform I’m using, and most importantly, the cost. Since I’m no longer using Lingoda, I decided to make a separate post for Babbel…

  • Napa-‘trip down memory lane’ ako nung may hinahanap akong book review ko. Every blog post kasi, merong link to the next post. Di ko namalayan pindot ako ng pindot ng next at nabasa ko yung mga old entries ko nung 2020. Nakakaaliw basahin yung mga ikinaka-excite ko noon and at the same time, yung mga…

  • Minsan, I feel defensive sa desisyon naming hindi magkaanak. At yung minsan na yun ay ngayon. I think it’s due to some recent events, kasi ever present pa rin yung mga shocked reactions ng mga tao pag nalaman nilang wala kaming anak at wala kaming planong magkaanak. Siguro pag hindi ko na na-witness yung mga…

  • I have parts of myself that I’m not a fan of, and I’m sure I have not-so-great traits that people see clearly but I’m oblivious to. But I realized that I have to accept my temperaments and trust that people can handle me, or better yet, let me know if I’m being too much—or too…

  • I read this New Yorker article about friendship, ‘The Trouble with Friends’. Feeling ko, it was a reality check. Narealize ko, my hope and aim for friendships were too idealistic and childlike. Ang nakatatak sa utak ko, “Gusto ko lang naman ng someone ngayon kung pano kami ng grade school bestfriends ko noon.” Yung updated…

  • I am sooo overwhelmed. Wala na kong work at hindi na ko pumapasok pero parang 18 hrs akong nagtrabaho kahapon. 3:30AM gising na ko. Sabi ko magmo-morning routine muna ako para kalmado ang simula ng araw ko, kasi alam kong madami akong aasikasuhin para sa paglipat namin. Pero nung napa-check ako ng e-mail ko, ayun,…

  • I knew October would be a great month, and it did not disappoint 🤍 The major thing that happened this month was our first US trip! I think almost all of my October entries are related to this trip. And yes, hindi pa rin kami nakakamove on ni Kenneth. We still talk about it every…

  • I was excited to go stationery store hopping in New York—especially whenever I see Raquel’s NYC posts and videos. Well, I was excited in general because it was our first time visiting the States. Being first-timers, there were a lot of things in our itinerary, but I’m glad I was able to squeeze in some…

  • I’ve been writing a lot for my blog over the past few days. I don’t know why I’m so excited about it. It feels like I’m doing something important when I’m actually not. I guess I just have a lot to say to no one in particular, and I’m glad to have the space to…

  • Today is back to work day after a week-long vacation. Work became more bearable today kasi may hangover pa ko sa bakasyon namin. Fresh pa yung memories kaya mapapangiti ako every once in a while. Easily one of the best vacations we’ve had kasi ang ganda nung mga sights (kahit crowded), ang sarap nung food…
