Hello, hello! We’re back once again! Ponggo & I had a tough but very productive and fulfilling working weekend. We ended it nicely with a filling dinner and a quick skate at the rink. Since were were sleep-deprived and tired by Sunday night, we were didn’t necessarily in the cheeriest of dispositions. [May I also […]
The other night, Ponggo & I were working on a project. I was telling him to use another software but he won’t budge. Then, he was asking me for instructions from time to time. Years ago, one of my bosses told me that the best way to teach someone is by helping them discover stuff
It’s the love month so please allow us to abuse the topic of L-O-V-E. Here are some pre-relationship woes. While it’s fun to look back at them, these things can be a pain in the head (and heart!) while these were happening (enter dramatic music): When Someone’s Too Dense – While others can be
It’s Valentine’s day! Well, at least in this side of the world 🙂 As much as 1/2 of me (or more accurately, 48.3452%) would like to make your eyes bleed red, pink & hearts, hearts, hearts today, we interviewed some our homies from the blog-o-sphere (Forgive me. I just really wanted to use the word
Our first ever fight back when we were still dating (umm…more than 10 years ago) was pretty much about this. When I said yes he thought I was really saying yes but he didn’t know that I was secretly hurting slash dying inside. Apparently, for certain people yes is yes and no is no. For
Try reading the title again when you’re done reading the comics! 🙂 This is how I am each time I’m talking to someone on the phone & (a) I’m at a dead spot or (b) when the lovely lovely (*sarcastic*) cellphone network is acting up. I would start the conversation with a good mood then
I’m a bad cook. I really am. I mostly microwave stuff. Ponggo refuses to use the microwave. He loves his food cooked just the real way. He doesn’t care if it takes his beef curry 5 hours to cook or how much of a hassle it is to reheat his siopao by steaming it. On
Gift-giving is probably not the most exciting part of our relationship. After so many years of trying, Ponggo has finally given up on me. I have way too many comments about all the presents he has given me. One year, he tries to guess the clothes I might like. Last Christmas, he bought me stuff that
We won! We mostly stayed home the past two weekends and we were glued to our laptops chasing deadlines, fixing the site etc while the TV was on. (Exciting, I know. *sarcastic*) There were a lot of competitions lately: the recent local cheer dancing competition, the local intercollegiate basketball league (i.e. UAAP) &
Social Networking Alphabet (Part 2) Well, here’s part 2 of the Social Networking Alphabet! If you missed part 1, scroll down or click here. I’m just amused that there’s really nothing good under “U”. Suggestions anyone? 😉 Everything that we could think of starts with the prefix “un” which usually comes with rants & drama
Stop copying me! “Stop copying me”, Ponggo would tell me. One of my hobbies / purposes in life is to annoy him. 😉 Ponggo loves using my phone for games and once he’s done & the battery’s mostly drained, he gives it back to me and asks me to charge it for him. Instead of getting
Everytime I See You Everytime I see you, I age & my wrinkles get more defined. I’ve had a very stressful week at work this week having to deal with twisted truths and some dirty corporate politics. Everytime I had to work on two particular projects, my heart beats fast, my vision narrows, I find
The value of honesty in a relationship has been stressed so many times by older people and a number of magazine articles and talk shows. Then again, there’s a very fine line between being honest and being brutally frank. The other night, I told him that he was
Optimist versus Pessimist: This is one of the usual conversations that Ponggo & I have. I accuse him of being negative and he accuses me of being too happy sappy. He claims he’s a realist while in my defense, I tell him that I just want to see the best side of all things. It’s
You Just Did: Isn’t it amazing how people say that they’re not going to tell you anything when by doing so, they just did? People also ask permission to ask a question when in the process of doing so, they just asked a question. It’s like asking people to respond to your question “Are you
A Gazillion Times First of all, my source of happiness today is the fact that I’m finally able to include those colorful washi tapes as (part of my useless) props behind Tipsy! I don’t know what is it with washi tapes. Staring at them makes me happy. (Me & my color fixations…) I think I

Usually, we have the option to answer a call or not. Then again, if it’s an important call–especially from nature–we simply can’t refuse!
