    On keeping secrets

    Some may say I am oversharing life stuff on Facebook, Instagram, and even here on the blog by posting lots of photos, sharing private stories, etc. I think so, too. Sometimes, due to my anger, happiness, pain, excitement, I tend to grab my phone the second I feel it and post anything that’s in my mind. But newsflash: if you think you already know my life, then think again. There still are things I filter (not just selfies) before I publish them. Nope, they’re not fake, I just put a little “tint” on it to cover my private life. And yes, it is possible. For example, this little notebook on…

    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…

    So how’s the new mom? + some things worth sharing

    My daughter just turned three months last week but I actually thought it was at least six months already. With my new alarm clock, I can barely sleep plus new roles in my job plus tool transitions and configurations, plus one new group of bloggers I just joined plus I recently just had an accident and my left knee was badly affected plus my mom got sick. So yea, basically, my days and weeks became longer. So if you are to ask how I manage my time: I cry for like 24 hours a day. I honestly hate it when people say “take a nap while your baby’s sleeping”. Newsflash: when I’m at…

    May Day: We find what we look for

    I almost forgot I have this “May Day” blog category where I tag my life updates in case I am too lazy to write on my journal. Well, here I am again, updating my blog with super personal nonsense things as if my readers care. Oh, by the way, that’s how personal blogs work, right? The previous week has been the busiest one I had since I gave birth. With all the work load and mommy duties, I thought I was nearly quitting. But God is indeed good and gave me more inspirations to live life to the fullest. Anyway, before anything else, thanks for reading my previous post on Mental…

    Getting my journaling mojo back + some realizations

    It’s been more than just a month since I last updated my personal analog journal and I thought I already lost the mojo for it and for art, in general. Aside from not having enough time, I also needed to stay away from life’s drama and try to survive. Haha! Good thing is we just got our new printer and I’ve been on the printing spree already for weeks now collecting print-outs for the journal. It’s fun though, and God bless the internet for giving us unlimited printables and tips on just making yourself busy journaling. Some people ask, what’s in journaling that makes it so important that it takes…
