    Week 35: Almost there! + my first NVS recognition

    My mom and dad are currently on a vacation, attending the local fest at the province. So yep, I and my siblings are making each day alone, with house chores 24/7. It’s a good thing, though. This is the first time for the longest time they went out of town by themselves, and it’s also our chance to better ourselves on house works. I know they’re enjoying themselves, especially my mom who just had her first flight ever. But my belly’s about to pop, and I just am positively wishing Mneme and I can hold it in until May. So far, thank God, I have no scary contractions yet. Anyway,…

    Week 28: Hello, thirdie!

    This is what I hate about commuting

    Every morning, I have to wake up at 4, prepare for work in at least one hour, and go out to commute at around 5. It seems normal, though. Since I don’t have my own car yet, I have to adjust my time because heavy traffic isn’t the only problem of commuters, but the volume of other chance passengers and the number of available jeepneys, buses, or train seats there are. If you’re thinking I have the privilege to skip lines, uhm yes I have. But the struggle is still “real”. Summer heat is too much to handle, especially when you’re pregnant, even with the help of sunscreen and umbrella…

    Life lately: it’s NOT okay not to be okay

    Can I be honest with you?

    Of course, I can. And I always am. I know being “honest” and “open” are two different things. Opening myself up to public isn’t easy, though. It’s not for fame, oh hell no. It’s just I just found this outlet an easier way to explain myself, than looking for someone who “can” and “will” listen to all my dramas and whom I can trust. Yeah, drama. Who cares, anyway? When I write something personal on this blog, I know many would read it. Personal kasi eh. There always is that curiosity that’s why people read something personal. Just like the title of this post. It’s catchy, isn’t it? Aminin mo man o…

    Saying hello to a new chapter + the baby’s name! #MnemeOnTheWay

    I was truly blessed to have a baby shower for Toyo! We were a little unprepared (because we honestly gave more time and effort on the decors and food, but not the program, lol) but at least we managed to gather everyone not just for a simple snack or late lunch and “kwentuhan“, but we also put a little fun for my friends to enjoy. I never knew it would be so much fun celebrating it with friends and family. This was actually the first time I (and my family) organized a party for a large group (40+ attendees. Sorry hindi tayo kompleto sa groupfie!), so bear with us. Haha!…

    Week 23: What I learned

    The past week was not-so-good for me and Toyo. Well, not okay especially for me. One of those hell weeks, really. Now, I;m on my 23rd week of pregnancy, and I;m not super happy. I just uninstalled all my social media apps from my phone supposedly to avoid stress from those stupid fake news and articles. I loved reading, don’t expect me to just scroll up and down the timeline without reading anything posted on it plus the comments. Yeah, my bad. So I decided to ditch those apps also to limit myself on using phone during pregnancy. They say it’s actually not that bad, but better to limit yourself from it.…
