Time to stay calm and reflect...

Here are some inspirational snippets that I have been reflecting on the past few days. I'm experiencing some challenges in my career and I'm fighting off self-doubt..


When I feel stressed out...
















When I need more confidence...

















and when I feel scared with changes and life's uncertainties...
















Little things I forget :)

♥ Let's be cheesy ♥

One minute of cheesyness..  (Timer starts now)
For my G

  • I love your accent.
  • Your 'think' and 'thought' makes me giggle.
  • I love the way you love me (sooo completely).
  • I love the way you know me-you read me well.
  • I love everything about you. I can just melt when you look at me. I glow in pride knowing that You--the man of my dreams is inlove with me and is forever mine.
  • I love the way you laugh your heart out-how you even try to stop it but end up laughing   even more. 
  • I love your kind heart-your gentleness and sincerity. 
  • I love your wisdom that goes well beyond your 28 years. 
  • I love your smarty mind-your way of knowing stuff that I myself am totally clueless of. 
  • I love your ability to make friends with just about anyone-people are drawn to you. 
  • I especially love how romantic & sensitive you are..how you make me feel that I am the only girl in the world for you.  

There is truly no one like you love. You're better than the best.. 
And I'm so grateful that I have you..

Compassion And Responsibility for Animals (CARA)


I had Samuel neutered last August 20, 2011 at CARA's clinic in Malate.
I think pet owners should research more on the benefits of neutering their cats/dogs. 
I feel good knowing that Samuel is healthier and that he won't add on the population of homeless kittens. It was a good decision.


The clinic in Malate was very clean; people were very friendly too.

Connecting my dots....

"You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in the future. You have to trust in something. Gut, destiny, life and karma..." -Steve Jobs 
Trust and Faith in God.
Finally I know what I want, what's important & what I want to do in my life- where my heart belongs. It's an amazing feeling of self-realization. No input from anybody and no endless analysis. Just on my own. Reflection, Silence & Faith.

Having this direction motivates me. A certain calmness. A boost of confidence that I cannot fully explain. Despite occasional chaos and challenges, I can honestly say that I'm not restless anymore. I piece everything together up to this very moment. No regrets. No frustrations. Only acceptance, renewed energy and faith that every situation molded me to be who I am today. No pointing fingers, No hiding behind life's circumstances (and using it as a reason not to reach my goals).

This is a turning point, a clearer vision, a wiser outlook, a more compassionate heart. Finally, I know where I am heading. Exciting!

Manaog Trip + CRIBS Foundation

With all the beautiful things that are happening in my life right now..
I have to give back..
And so, I am planning a trip to...

I. Visit Our lady of Manaog:

(Image from: http://www.philippinesbestplaces.com/2008/04/18/manaog-church-our-lady-of-manaog/)
I visited Manaog last year with my bestfriend Y and her family. I want to visit again-the Church is in Pangasinan (hours drive from Manila).


II. I will organize a group to visit CRIBS Foundation and bring in supplies (raise more funds) for the babies. It nourishes my soul to do something like this.
This is their website: http://www.cribsfoundation.org/index.html
I will make an update on both project plans soon..pinky promise!

In A Nutshell..

* My dad is coming home 2 weeks from now, and he will be managing our first business venture.
* My sister and I will also start our business venture soon (Inspired by my Yellows).
* My work is in a 'manageable' mode now. Occasional Grrs but I won't complain. It is a blessing and I am grateful. I have to maximize what I learn from this organization and also reap more rewards.
* My yellow are all healthy and happy.
* My Car is on top-shape so no commuting (Thank you Office for maintaining it).
* My business ideas are transitioning from planning to implementation (I'm very excited).
* My family is healthy and we are complete.
* My barkada and I are celebrating our '16th year' of being a family.. Y+A+G+R have always been there for me.. highs and lows.
* My 'G' and I are more madly inlove with each other and we have been planning our life, our family, our travels together (This makes me dreamy and oh so happy).


Everything is more beautiful and with all the good news coming in-I am soo happy that I get to share this with my 'G'. He's the best. I'm crazy about him.
