If I ever have a go-to gadget, that would be my phone because I can do anything from writing a blog post to answering e-mails, taking care of all our social networking sites, coordinating things and chatting with friends. But there are also things I do that make me hate it so much: 1. Mindless […]
If there was ever something that I didn’t see coming when I started blogging on Tumblr in 2010, that was me & Ponggo appearing in public and talking about our blog. True to my introverted nature, I enjoyed being able to post stuff online and bask in the anonymity that goes with posting nothing but
I always wondered why DIY and hand drawn things are getting more and more common these days but I never really sat down and bothered to find out what was fueling the handmade movement. Then, I realized the need for this in my last blog post. I mentioned that I’d rather go back to writing
