A Taste of Life This is dedicated to our good friend Aina who wrote “I can almost taste the weekend” on her status last Thursday to which I responded, “Really? How does it taste like?”. Thank you for your patience when I take everything too literally. Thank you too for being there for me when I […]
Yesterday marked the fourth year since Ponggo proposed to me under the Eiffel Tower. So, I posted about it on my personal Facebook account as I got trickles of likes coming in, Ponggo sent me a message via chat saying, “Really? It’s today?” and added “Sorry! I no longer have my calendar so I don’t
Earlier this year, Mikey, Ponggo & I were busy working on this animated clip. We were so engrossed and so deeply absorbed into what we were doing to the point that no one was talking to each other. However, from time to time, we would hear Mikey say, “Oh man! This is just soooo awesome!”
Drawing: Expectations Versus Reality This is how I feel every time I draw and my mind won’t cooperate with my hand. Same goes for taking photos when I already have a composed image but I just can’t seem to let my camera to follow my brain! On the other hand, a day is awesome when
Make yourself look thinner in photos! This is what I’ve been guilty of lately. No folks, you won’t find a step-by-step tutorial here on how to liquify your curves on Photoshop & other digital techniques. I’m actually sticking to the basics. I even forgot to include the following: 1) Crop unwanted fats away (always the
Ahh…when people need something from you…. It’s just so funny how people go great lengths to ask a favor from you. They’ll befriend you then ignore you and remember your existence again when they need something from you. Also, the format is always like a spider web where you’re lured into the center and
We’ve had a crazy past two weeks and we just realized it when we got home the other night & stared at our messier-than-usual place. Apparently, we have been treating our tiny home like a hotel. We only get to stay here to sleep then we would pack up a third of our house
We were so thrilled when Anton Diaz of Our Awesome Planet, an award-winning food blogger, invited us to do a guest blog post on his website. Anton is the organizer of Mercato Centrale, an outdoor market located in Bonifacio Global City, inspired by the outdoor markets of London & Florence. Anton initially started blogging
Not to be mistaken with our real set of Frequently Asked Questions our Instagram FAQ’s, here’s a set of frequently asked questions by relatives & friends! I just realized through the years that when people are asking you these answers, it’s not as if you’re obliged to grab random guy & label him your boyfriend
The rain has been unstoppable these days. Every week I try to do a quick gesture on my phone, I always hope that the drawings on the topmost layer of my updates will change into suns & clouds but no, they’re all lightning, rain & grey skies! Recently, I’ve been having an on & off
It’s Friday (at least in this side of the world) and I’m pretty sure your brains are fried by now. So, here’s something we can all probably use. Our friends always ask us where we get our ideas for a new blog post. So, we’ve threshed out some tips on where to get ideas when
I was always a magazine type of person who’s friends with a lot of bookworms. My friends often talk about this and that book and how they feel for a character. At that point, I usually zone out because (a) I really have no idea what they’re talking about or (b) the thought of reading
Today, we’re very honored to have been invited by Heima to talk about their MT Washi Tapes at the Trion Towers, BGC, Taguig City where Real Living Magazine was having their Real Living Space Exhibit–a showcase of the works of 8 interior designers. To complete the experience, they came up with free DIY workshops, one is
I don’t know how I can ever escape the topic of food. For the past couple of weeks, I wrote about why I’m fat, struggled with my diet, and asked if I really looked fat. Even our supposed technologically inclined entry is still an ode to food! My friend once told me (as well as
Every time I have to convince a friend to join us on a scary theme park ride, they always ask, “What’s the point of all this? Why do we need to scare ourselves?” I go on gladly explaining that we are living in a time & place (at least within 200 kilometers of where I
If there are two things that I really need to enroll myself in right now, they would probably be: 1) Yoga classes for inner peace & less fats in the inner thighs and 2) Chocoholics Anonymous–or something like it. “Hello! My name is Tipsy!” “Today, I successfully walked away from a convenience store while I
The Android KitKat has just been launched. We stared at the icon and we saw that it can be a popsicle / twin popsies / ice pops or whatever you’re supposed to call it these days. Android started with Cupcake, Doughnut, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jellybean and ta-daahh…they now have that wafer
My friend shared how good it felt to follow one’s heart & this was my response. Anyway, I was just scrolling through all the files & searching for the latest post & I just realized we have a lot of entries that start with who, what, when, where, how & why! Read on & review
Please forgive my contemplative mood lately. I think this is the slump I always forget I have to face when I spend an entire month working on weekends & being happy about holidays because I have more time to…umm..work! Anyway, recently, I’ve been trying to restructure my schedule and injecting a bit of gym time.
I think the problem with saying “I’m NOT going to eat” so many times is that what registers in your brain is the last word and not the verb. Anyone with me in this struggle? Is this true or is it just true? The other day, as I was about to get up, I
