    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…

    A little trek while pregnant

    I really am jealous how fit Isabelle Daza is, and how she makes pregnancy + working out look easy. When I was in my first and second trimester, I already feel a little bit off and walang gana. So whenever I see Belle’s IG stories, I wish I had the same courage and strength and endurance she has. What I am proud of, when it comes to being physically active during pregnancy is my little trek to Treasure Mountain. Haha! Weak, I know. Well, at least I did it. It is a little place for the people who can’t really hike tall mountains or can’t do a loooong trek to…

    Gerry’s Grill Favorites

    Finally had the time to go out with my family for dinner! It’s not that I don’t want having dinner at home, but I just needed some time outside the house just to unwind and at least see places I don’t usually see everyday. Lol. Yea, we just went out to the mall as we always do. It just felt a little better now because we’re welcoming a new kitten to the family.. Gerry’s Frill is one of the most common go-to places especially for groups or families – hindi lang masarap, affordable pa. So yep, I am not blogging about because this is my first time (it’s actually my, idk, 100,000,000th??)…

    My newest tambayan: Coffee Project

    I really love cafes. It’s actually on my bucket list to own and manage a coffee shop someday. So while I’m crossing out some more items on the list, I just stay in coffee shops to feed my love of cafes. Konting tambay at explore muna and maybe (just maye) someday I’ll have my own. Though I’m still a dakilang tambay,I also have my checklist for visiting a coffee shop. The place should: be cozy and comfy; be with internet/wifi connection; be Instagrammable (though I find almost every coffee shop Instagrammable); have a good coffee or hot choco; be a place where I can work or write or read a book…
