El Mundo Cafe: a new place for your “me time”
Imagine your life as a big, colorful mosaic and “me time” is the dazzling little gem that brings it all together. It’s that little window when you hot pause from life’s demands, you dive into your favorite book (or just some random read), binge that series guilt-free, or simply savor a quit cup of coffee (or in my case, with a plate or two of yummy meals). And sometimes, the literal place you go matters. Again, in my case, I like staying in a hotel. This time, I tried the U Hotel in Makati and I really enjoyed their El Mundo Cafe. Since I started vlogging, I take more videos…

The power of your story
Hey, guys. Nothing big to share today, but I’d like to talk about all things ‘limitations. The first days of 2019 taught me a very valuable lesson I almost always didn’t put in mind – limitations. I’ve been busy in my ‘self-care’ project without even realising I was spoiling myself already. Stress-eating, binge-watching, spending too much time on Facebook. Aside from being a mom, I didn’t feel productive that I was too weak to even take pictures and update my Dailies. I mean, what shots would I have? My life’s getting boring. Routinary. Wake up, be a mom, eat, take a bath, go to work, work, eat, work, go home,…

Looking back before 2018 ends *heart emoji*
It’s already Christmas! I know we are not certain all bout Jesus’ birthdate, but most of us are celebrating life, joy, and love in Jesus’ name. ‘Tis the season for forgiveness and making peace, showering love, and gift giving. And speaking of gifts, this is the first time I gave little gifts to the people in the office who were always there for us, making us safe and comfortable. It may be a little thing, but really, it is a big tick to my bucket list – to give back at least in simple ways. Thank God for the continuous blessings that I am more than willing to share! By…

I don’t know why I’m still writing about this but here’s my life lately
It has been a busy month. No, really. Juggling two jobs is hard, I’ve made myself aware about that even before I entered the second one. But it’s just now that it’s actually sinking in. Both are demanding too much from my 24-hour day. And oops, I forgot to mention I also am a mom. Being away from home at 7am to 9pm during the weekdays made me feel really guilty, so I had to excuse myself from my second raket on weekends. But normally, that’s my weekdays and I’m also out for blog features at 11am to around 12mn on Saturdays and Sundays. My Mnemo just turned seven months…

May Day: when confidence is silent and insecurities are loud + some things worth sharing
I wrote this crappy little article on my Tumblr blog waaaay back, talking about my lack of confidence and insecurities. Honestly, I can’t understand my words before, but I get the point – I was insecure and I was feeling guilty for myself. Today, as inspired with an article from Dr. Melanie Greenberg, I’m sharing my stories and thoughts again with hopefully well-written words, or at least better than how I wrote it before. Insecurity driven by perfectionism that leads to social anxiety I have lots of curvy and sexy Facebook friends and, honestly, I envy their perfectly fit bodies, so I tried working on my own. As I scroll…
