I’m not a big fan of costumes because I feel I’m so done with them with my dance classes as a kid but I do love the idea of being able to receive chocolates for Halloween! 🙂 Posts About Chocolates: Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs & Chocolates Chocolate Cake Recipe Calorie Counting Now at 1 day […]
So this has been my habit since I discovered Multiply years ago. I would stay on a social networking site and search for new things that will inspire me. It usually gets to a point where I really like everything I see. Then, I get overwhelmed and confused then I start streamlining my feed. I
I know I’ve said this before but I noticed that a majority of the people I know from the blogging / social media world are actually introverts. Well, they may appear as extroverts during events and gatherings but I would usually catch them in their downtime wearing a do not disturb me face. 🙂 Hehehe.
Here’s more of the Flotsam & Jetsam x Vitamin Sea La Union weekend with photos taken by Abbey Sy! 🙂 If you missed the first post, click here. I was around 4 months pregnant when we were there and I just realized that 1) I can no longer bend and squat as much 2) I have limited
I’ve been able to rest at home some more lately. In fact, now, I’m thinking of doing a mini tour of this place before things get crazy next year schedule-wise with the baby & all. 🙂 One of the things that I think will be demoted in my priorities would be these Instagram problems!
My August schedule has been heavy in terms of events but September is proving to be equally challenging with my daily deadlines. I told Ponggo before the month started that for me to be able to tackle this huge task, I’ll give up blogging so I can streamline my tasks. Well, lo and behold, look
Today, I really wanted to concentrate on my deadline. But Ponggo noticed I was getting burned out so I decided to start my day by exercising in the morning instead. After that, I found myself refilling the calories I’ve burned. *Oops* People ask me why I still exercise, well, I always do for my mood
Lately, I’ve been working on a project that requires me to draw religiously for at least 4 hours a day. So far, I’m on track. *Whew!* It’s challenging and rewarding so far. I really really try not to fall asleep at night when I have to finish the last few corners of my illustration. Yep,
So I was initially planning not to find out the gender of the baby because I thought that there’s already so much that science could tell you these days so why not leave out one tiny detail so things would be more exciting inside the delivery room! 🙂 I shared my plans with Ponggo &
I’ve started thinking about how my life would be next year upon giving birth. I’m pretty sure that somewhere between changing diapers and chasing sleep, handling my social networking accounts or even making sure that the blog is alive is the least of my worries. One of the things that my friends & I get
I missed making comics so much! It’s been a whiiiiiile! I’ve been stuck with all the back end operations doing errands here and there. Although, I must say, that part was also a refreshing break from getting stuck and finding myself zoning out while scrolling my feed on different social networking sites. 🙂 A couple
I’ve always been wanting to share some tips on how to make your colors vibrant but them pregnancy hormones have been kicking in and I’m just usually asleep. For example, I actually started working on my outline and practicing my monologue for TypeLabMNL more than a month ago. (Yes, I would speak to myself in
We don’t know if we’re having a boy or a girl yet but I’ve definitely started picking baby names. I’ve already hinted on odd choices such as Ampersand & Asterisk in this previous post. The hubby is not pleased…at all. I’m thankful though for all you on Instagram who thought Ampersand was a legit name.
We don’t know yet if we’re having a boy or a girl but I’m definitely picking baby names for fun. Every time I get the chance to glance at names, I try to pick my favorites. I did it during the ABC’s of Hand Lettering book launch & I would also do it when going
Hello Guys! Hm…So what have I been up to lately? As I’m writing this, it’s still Ponggo’s birthday. I’ve been very consistent with putting up a social networking ready birthday greeting but today, hormones just took over my life spending most days nursing the late presence of morning sickness in my life. I’ve always been proud
Hello Readers, When we started the Googly Gooeys, people on Tumblr kept on asking me what our characters would be like if & when we had kids. Well, since it’s going to be pink + blue, they’re going to be different shades of purple. Fast forward to some 6 years later, I noticed some symptoms
I think it’s ironic that the drawing above has all the bright colors but the message it conveys is a bit on the pensive side. *Hmm…* I felt so stuck and uninspired last weekend. I don’t feel so good when I feel I already have everything figured out then I have to start answering new
Honestly, saying “honestly speaking” has always been awkward. This is so especially when the person you talk to is quick enough to pick up the fact that maybe the reason why you’ve been using the phrase is that you’ve been dishonest to them before! So, when you’re thinking about using that phrase, think again! It’s
We watched Pitch Perfect some couple of weeks ago and this has been on repeat ever since. I was thinking of doing some version of illustrated lyrics like I used to here: Rolling in the Deep by Adele Hey Soul Sister by Train But, for this one, I just wanted to focus on these lines:
This year, I’m so happy that I’ve actually streamlined my work into blogging & workshops. If I continued to accept commissions, I don’t know what will happen to everyone who needed to get their invites and materials done. I can’t keep them waiting forever. I always say “sleep is precious”. My body usually lets me
