Hello World ala Java

Baby steps. Getting there.

Time for Ketchup

Had a quick chat over lunch. Rants and updates were thrown here and there.

Though we're online most of the times iba pa rin talaga ang face to face chikahan. May namumuong plano. Ang tanong, kelan? 😀

Please define accordingly

So, yeah, we tend to overthink things a bit too much 😅 #LikeMotherLikeDaughter

Review: The Girl Who Could Fly

The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It took a bit of effort to get used to Piper's accent and voice. The story imparts embracing one's uniqueness and the value of friendship despite betrayal. My daughter rated the book with 5 stars as she'd like to read it again.

Deep words from p275

There is a place deep, deep inside every person that is hidden and hard to find. If things get bad enough and life gets too hard though some people will go to that place and never come back from it. Certainly, all outward appearances will suggest otherwise. They will look as they always did. They may even act somewhat like their old selves, but the truth is, the real truth is that they are hiding in this place deep inside so no one can touch or hurt them anymore.

Happy Birthday, Wawa!

Due to schedule conflict, work and all, we weren't able to celebrate her special day with her. Buti na lang my in laws were able to prepare something for her.

We pray for your constant good health and more joyful memories to come! 🙆

KDrama: 그 남자 의 책

True, who ever coined the term bookworm?



Spoiler: she did buy something towards the end.



That awkward moment with your ex.


If he's my type, he can snooze all day.



When you like someone, corny jokes are forgivable lolz



This heart to heart talk got me tearing up. Looking back, that pained expression tho.



Comic relief from the volunteer is much appreciated.



Mobile library. Awesome idea!



Ah yes, the million dollar question.



True. On both accounts.



Aaaaanndd so we move on! #GoGirl !!!



It's been awhile since I've watched anything korean. Glad this film didn't make me regret how I spent my precious Me Time ^^

Team Watermelon

None from the Lunch Buddies signed up for the company outing. With a tenure of three years or more, it is expected. Employees are less engage in such activities, even more for married ones.

I chose to attend, feeling newbie lang haha

Seriously, I need to put myselft out there. #TheHappinessProject manifesto. Make new friends.

Took this opportunity to catch up with old acquaintances as well. Who knows, one or two might end up as a good friend after all.

Someone from the team suggested we try riding the banana boat. I've always thought the ride to be too expensive and silly. This time though, I caved in since there's really not much to do. It was suprisingly fun! 🙌



I think it'll be nice to bring the family next time.

Loop the loop

Because I need variety when passing time, today I chose to knit a red bonnet for me.

I was able to snag super bulky yarns from Gantsilyo Guru two weeks back.


Next, I tried this combo. I need to work on my thread switch though.


I made a simple cute blue bonnet for baby V. I'm predicting he'll be big and he'll get to use the cap in the coming cold months.


I leave you with this über weird photo of me wearing O's bonnet. I hope to hand it to her soon para makahabol before October. Kahit man lang gawa ko makarating ng SKor 😅

Special Day for Moms

We had lunch at Buon Goirno and savored our favorites: soup, salad, pasta and pizza.



It was such a fine day, we decided to linger a bit for some photo ops.



We were planning to have BTIC for dessert but a new resto now sits in their stall. So, we had crepes and caffeine at Cafe Breton instead.

By the time we had our fill, more families arrived and the place is getting a bit crowded, we've decides to go back home and chillax for the rest of the day.

Pretty made a cute card for me :D I hope you enjoyed your day as much as I did! 🌷

I want me some ribs

And together with my mom, I got some from Morganfields Philippines! #Sarapness that Sticky Bones 🐷

Mauulit to, pramis! 😀

Anime: Tamako Love Story (Movie)

I would love to watch this feel good anime again and again. No kidding. Next in line would be the Tamako Market series and I believe it will be just as delightful.

The confession. The realization. The confusion. The awkwardness. To beoved in return.

😍 First love. *sigh*

Anime: Death Parade Screencaps (Spoilers)

I wasn't prepared for the eyecandy and interesting storylines from this series.


The newlyweds.


Childhood friends meet again.


The twist and turns thrown at me during the first three eps got me hooked! I couldn't bother getting screencaps as I watch events and characters unfold.


Life indeed is full of unfairness. I agree with you on that Decim. However, I chose to remain.. hopeful.

First of May

Happy 40th Anniversary, Mami and Dadi! 😘
