T prepared a birthday party for Shaynna at Jollibee. This time, Shaynna’s guests are her cousins and soem children from the neighborhood. For […]

I was so much a grandma’s girl before going to highschol. I adored my Lola (grandma) Iyang that I often went with her to church, to her choir practice, and even when she sells those Filipino delicacies she used to cook. As much as I love my Lola Iyang, I love her older sister […]

October 12 was a school day but it was hard to invite Shaynna’s classmates for a birthday party. So I decided to bring in snacks to school. A week before, I have asked my mother to make an advance order of Kiddie Meals from Jollibee and have it delivered to Shaynna’s school at 2:30PM. […]

If my mother and my younger sister were staying with me, I would have gained a lot of weight already and would have taken into consideration using one of those weight loss supplements. My family loves to eat. Yes, there’s nothing wrong with it, unless junk food is what they often dig into.
I […]

There’s no way I’m going to post indecent photos here! Anyway, since Shaynna turned 3 years old, she had never slept beside me each time I go home. Yes, it hurt A LOT! But I could not blame her. I just tried all my might to set aside the pain and […]

During my vacation last week, I often fetched Shaynna from school. To get there, I have to pass by my highschool “alma mater”. That school sure did change a lot. The single-level classrooms have been replaced with a huge multi-storey, sophisticated building. A waiting area has been added to the simple […]

Thanks to all who drop by despite my inactivity in this blog. I went home to the Philippines last week for my Shaynna’s 5th birthday (by the way, thanks for the greetings). Now, I’m back here in Singapore. One thing’s for sure: a week with Shaynna and my family is really […]

My daughter, Shaynna is turning five on Monday. When asked what she wanted for her birthday? The whole family, some balloons and a layer of cake. As a girl, she added she wanted a tiara with flowers on it.
I can’t believe that I’ll have a five-year-old soon! And finally, for the […]

Before I came to Singapore, I thought electronic stuff are cheaper in Japan. Surprisingly, after visiting some electronics stores here in Singapore, I was proven wrong. Famous LCD TV brands are often sold at half the original price that it is so tempting to indulge in one. That is why many […]

A few weeks ago, our team leader approached a teammate and me and asked what physical “features” of a work laptop we prefer. I tried using one of the company’s 12-inch notebooks. It was very light but it gave me a headache because of the small screen. So I said I prefer […]

My art classes in primary school and highschool required us to make holiday cards for people dear to us. I usually made one each for my papa and mama. Papa was still working abroad at that time and I unceasingly followed my mother around until she mails it to papa. I also often […]

I blame my cellphone camera again for the poor photo below…
Anyway, the steel structures above are for the Reverse Bungee and Extreme Swing by the Singapore River, close to Clark Quay. Here’s a closer look at the Extreme Swing:
Would you dare try getting on those things? I never would. Even roller coasters scare […]

I grew up in a rural area in the southern Philippines. We did not have a telephone until in the late 1990’s. But then, cell towers were put up before telephone lines, so when I went off to college in Cebu City, I did not have to solely depend on snail mails […]
