Tomorrow is the 116th Independence day of the Philippines & for this post, we decided to blog in our own language–Filipino. 🙂 ———- Wag magugulat, ngayong araw, naisipan naming magsulat gamit ang wikang Filipino. (Minsan lang ‘to diba?) Bukas ay ang ika-116 nang araw ng ating Kalayaan! (Salamat sa aking mga guro, hindi na ata maalis […]
Remember how they used to tell you not to play with your food as a kid? Honestly, until now, I’m still not convinced that we shouldn’t. I mean, isn’t it just more fun to add a few things here & there to make your food more enjoyable to eat? 😀 Ponggo & I have drafted
One night, one of my classmates from high school commented on my personal Facebook post & said, “I remember you had one of the nicest penmanships” to which Ponggo replied, “Are they blind?!?!” The other week, Ponggo & I were editing a video. He was checking the script I prepared & here’s how the convo went:
Fact of the Day #111: When Instagram is down, the world panics! Admit it, you also get that mini heart attack when you find out that Instagram is down. I honestly get paranoid. I always see comments like “Instagram, please bring my account back” so I automatically assume that by mistake, Instagram has deleted my
OH my! So, just like that, half of the year is done! Is it really June already??? We’re kicking off our birth month with a fun & colorful giveaway from the land of sprinkles, Krispy Kreme! Woot woot! My relatives can attest, this is my go-to dessert contribution when we have a get together
Ever felt like you had a slump at work & that you needed to seek inspiration elsewhere? Well, that’s how Ponggo & I felt a couple of weeks back so we packed our bags & went on a weekend trip with our friend Clara. At first, we didn’t know where to go but we felt
I’ve been trying to trace back when this started & why I have no weekends. I practcially have no weekends. Well, if I legitimately do, I start getting guilty. I’d bring my laptop or any pending work where Ponggo & I will be going. (More often than not, I end up being unproductive). I also
Ponggo & I spent a few hours of our workcation by the beach. I know, I know: The word “workcation” doesn’t actually exist. Think staycation is for people who want to go on a vacation but are staying in a hotel or their homes and workcation is for people who want to go on a
How can you check if you are watching Glee too much? Here is one of the signs that you are a truly certified Gleek 🙂 You just know you’ve had too much Glee if you’re now a slushie-phobe 🙂
I’m creating this blog post as we’re on our way from Paoay, Laoag, Ilocos Norte to Pagudpud. (Well, now, I’m uploading it as we’re on our way to Vigan from Pagudpud) 🙂 It’s a really hot afternoon. Well, actualy, everywhere in the Philippines, it’s really really hot! For the past couple of months, Ponggo &
Every single time I’m asked “Are you busy?” I always answer, “Yes I am”. Finally, it has gotten to a point where I got tired of hearing myself that I’m busy so I would just tell my friends, “Yes I am but I stopped thinking about it”. Deadlines have been piling up lately and I’ve been
Every time people ask why I exercise, I tell them that it’s cheaper & more productive than hiring a psychiatrist. The tricky thing about jobs like designing is that most of the time, it’s just you and your mind. You start coming up with an idea then that critic inside you will reject it. The
I don’t know who among my friends actually posted a screenshot of their 2048 score but from then on, suddenly, there were more moments of silence in the house. You see, the 2048 app is a game where you move the blocks around the square & combine the 2’s & 4’s until you get the
Every time April 26 approaches, I panic a bit. I don’t know what to write about. I’m done going through the lengthy history of how the Googly Gooeys came about and doing something similar each year would be boring. I also don’t know if I should stop explaining that April 26, 2009 was the evening that
I’m writing this on the eve of the 5th birthday of the Googly Gooeys and I couldn’t be any more grateful. I think I just met the awesomest, inspiring & most humble artist in my life! Ponggo & I were at the Tokidoki launch at SM City North Edsa today & we got to meet
I’m just really really happy that even if my computer is not currently fully functional, my screen’s at least working! We were at a meeting the other day when my laptop screen just decided to go black for no reason. *Yikes!* Anyway, after having it slightly repaired, the LCD’s aliiiiive again! *Whew* I just can’t
This Holy Week, I was initially thinking of giving up chocolates. Then, it just dawned on me, I can’t do that! You can let me exercise but please, don’t take away the goodness of bittersweet dark chocolate! So I had to think of something else that I was always attached to. Then it came to
Finally tired of leaving my life unto the hands of fate, instead of finding out whether “He loves me” or “He loves me not”, I started counting the petals on the flowers instead before picking them. They should be odd-numbered!! I just realized that I should’ve taken it further! I should’ve made paper flowers instead.
So, I started working out again last December. Well, technically, I can’t really just exercise for the sake of it. I need to move with music through dance in general. (Wait, don’t tell me I haven’t warned you about how awkward I dance). I was nursing this injury for two years & finally got tired
I was staring at this comic for a while & thinking, “Gahhh! What a stereotypical cartoon about girls & boys.} The character Tipsy is busy with arts & crafts while Ponggo is busy with his handyman stuff. Then again, I just realized I can’t call our situation purely typical because to start with, I can’t
