On Waiting, Boredom and Lack of Inspiration

Posted: November 3rd, 2012 | No Comments »

The other night, I met up with Ada to watch the new movie Suddenly It’s Magic. It’s been a long time since she last saw a Filipino film and this is a kilig movie. Most of the people watching were giggling everytime Marcus (Mario Maurer) does something sweet to Joey (Erich Gonzales). I enjoyed this […]

Coconut Sugar: Your Healthy Sugar

Posted: November 2nd, 2012 | No Comments »

When it comes to sweetening our drinks, what choices do consumers have today? It’s usually a toss-up between white or brown sugar and artificial sweeteners, which to a growing number of health conscious consumers, seems more like a choice between the lesser of two evils. But what if there was an all natural sweetener that […]

Since I’ve been ranting on Twitter, I might as well write a blog post.
It was hard enough squeezing my words down to 140 characters, then I’d have to spam my follower’s twitter feeds.
I love this tattoo… It changed my life. Changed my mindset. Without experiencing this, I wouldn’t have learned the truth… The truth that I can overcome a painful experience like this. I had to be brave.
I’ve been wanting a tattoo for the longest time. But I’ve been holding it for 4 years at least, I just haven’t found the right moment, the right design and the right artist.

Freeway introduces their latest collection incoporating artworks of our very own Carlos “Botong” V. Francisco.

National Artist Collectors’ Series Holiday 2012

This year’s holiday collection celebrates Philippine’s greatest muralist of all time,   Carlos “Botong” V. Francisco , who comes from  the artist town of  Angono, Rizal.  Freeway’s Holiday 2012 Collection of National Artist Collectors’ Series pays tribute to his life and amazing murals. This most anticipated collaboration collection also marks the 100th Grand Anniversary of Botong’s life who was born in 1912.

Botong was the second Filipino to receive the title of National Artist in Painting, after Fernando C. Amorsolo.  He was one of the first Filipino modernists who revolutionized art and deviated from Fernando Amorsolo’s romanticism of Philippines scenes.  His great works include Blood Compact, First Mass at Limasawa, The Martyrdom of […]

“Life is not made up of minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years, but of moments.”
– Sarah Breathnach

I made a vow to myself to live my life to the fullest.  To live it with wonderful moments with friends, family and even strangers sometimes.  Sometimes, you plan for these moments to happen.  But most of the time, the best moments are spontaneous!

It’s that moment when you see your cat doing something funny, or your dog learning his first trick! In my case, doing a very complex pole trick for the first time!

In other cases, meeting a “Christian Grey” lookalike in Nepal!  After seeing him, I tweeted about him and people were like “Where’s the picture?”  And it frustrates me that the world begs for evidence when something cool happens.  My friends would […]

I have good news!  Well, at least it is good for me, but it might be good news for you as well because now you would now that it is possible because I have experienced it myself!

I was so happy over the week because I just found out that my impaired vision due to nearsightedness has improved!  It has improved to the point that my left eye doesn’t need any help anymore and my right eye’s grade went down!
My aunt is very particular about the eyes.  She is farsighted and needs glasses whenever she needs to read something.  She knows how hard it is to move around with a blurry vision!  You know how they say experience is the best teacher?  I beg to disagree.  You can learn from other people’s […]

Hmmm… let me see.  I don’t really want anything in particular.  My close friends know this, I am not materialistic. 
Maybe, I just want my mom’s cooking for my birthday.  I always do.
 
But hmm… let me see, maybe… just visit my blog and comment on this blog post below?   I would very much appreciate your greetings!
 
Only if you want…
 
That, I think, will be the best gift you can give to me
 
xoxo,
Hannah
