    I’ve been making new friends. I’ve been meeting good people. Better people. Hopefully making better friends. I feel thankful every time I am treated nice by somebody, or when someone listens to me, smiles at me, is just plain good to me. It makes me feel that I won’t have to be so trapped in

    This month I feel like I have leveled-up as a person. So much happened. I’ve tried closing some lose ends with some people and while not all of it went smoothly as I’d hoped it would be, I’m still glad I took that chance. Just trying to stand up for myself this time made a

    If I can’t be thankful for anything, I can be thankful for that. :)  Today: I don’t want to take my friends for granted. I want to thank them for so many things, and I don’t want to make them wait too long to hear how much I love them and how much I appreciate

    C was telling me about his shoot over the weekend and I remembered when he texted me that he was jealous of Magno because he gets “recharged” by Paoie’s real hugs since she was also at the shoot.  Then I remembered him asking me last Friday if A is okay because she asked about me

    What do couples do on Valentine’s Day? How does it feel like to have a guy surprise you with things? Yesterday was the first time I had a “date” for Valentine’s. C made my first Valentine’s day with him (or, with any guy for that matter) special enough. Woke up to a touching letter/email C

    I have a friend who, when applying for a job with foreign employers (Singaporean, actually), was asked to rate her skills from 1-5. She didn’t want to say 5 — it seemed too high as if saying you have no other room for learning because you’re reached maximum best already. She settled for a 3,

    I have recently read the article “We the restless” by Fatima Avila and it speaks very closely of how I feel: Restless. I wish to tread a path similar to Fatima: have 2 years of work experience in my country, take graduate studies abroad while traveling a lot and then eventually work with an international and

Tickle Theory

A life well-lived is a life documented.

I’ve been writing about the mundane since the day I dreamed to be a writer. I’ve traveled, worked, lived, loved, overcome heartbreaks, met kindred spirits, read books, kept dogs, and been engaged to be married — here are all the words that piece together just how much I’ve changed and grown since my university days.
