Two things: Black and white
I prefer white rice. I love the rice being served in Japanese restaurants. I don’t know what you call it but the sticky kind, I love that! I also love the Jasmine rice served in a Thai restaurant I once ate at. I love the smell and the taste of it. When it comes to [...]
The quest to serenity
In my ongoing quest to serenity, I frequently come across older and more mature people who are bitter with what they have become in life. I have a grand-aunt who was supposed to be married to the love of her life decades ago but due to the fact that they have different religions, her parents [...]
Alone again naturally
Being alone is natural for me. I don’t go pitying myself like other people. I am more confident than that. But there is always a tug in my heart when it comes into focus that I don’t have someone to call my own. I know it will come, yes. I only have to wait and [...]
Suddenly kikay! ;-)
I am not really much into accessories but for some reason, the past couple of weeks have seen me checking out, ordering and paying for choice accessories! I am suddenly turning into a kikay! Ha-ha-ha! I got two from a local store. Two kidada bracelets from my good friend in HongKong. And I am digging [...]
Cash versus credit
One of the things I learned when I started working at home is to avoid buying in credit. I save up for an item I would like to buy. If I don’t have enough yet, then I wait for the funds to be available before I buy it. That simple. This is why you are [...]
Should have known =)
I don’t really mingle with our neighbors unless they come to our house to visit. When I go out of our house, I walk straight to where I’m going and I don’t look at the persons I bump into. Not because I am a snob or something. But because I am not that type of [...]
Quick post :)
For some reason, I can think clearly when I am washing the dishes. I just washed the dishes and I was able to think of a million possibilities and ideas in those few minutes. Amazing! I should do this more often. Ha-ha! It’s still raining hard from where I am. The weather can make you [...]
Staying unmarried
I always tell the people around me that marriage is not the end all and be all of living. They should stop looking at me with pity or regret in their eyes. Because I don’t feel that way for myself. If marriage is for me, then it will come. It may be tomorrow, next week, [...]
Working at the beach?
Wouldn’t it be cool to work at the beach? When we went to the beach two summers ago, I remember telling myself that it would be just a time for me to relax. Anyway, it’s just two days. But you know what? I spent the whole night thinking about work! I specifically thought about my [...]
Happiness and being single…
Let me just clarify something lest you get the wrong idea in a previous post I did about my views on marriage… I am happy being single. I believe in marriage vows. I am just not totally sold to the idea that happiness can be found in marriage. There is also happiness in being single. [...]
Idea of marriage
I’ve been seeing a lot of my old schoolmates who are married and/or with kids now. They all look happy with their lives. I even had this two batchmates who look content being single with kid. The guy is far from his kid but you can discern from his status updates how much he loves [...]
The way you look tonight…
If given the chance to choose a man I can be with, I’d choose someone who is smart, reads novels, funny, loving and God-fearing. And someone who can sing! It would be really great if the man has the voice of Harry Connick, Jr. and that he can sing The Way You Look Tonight to [...]
New year, new life!
The new year is a time to boldly take the first steps toward your best future. I can’t remember where I read this line but it reminded me of my resolution this year. I need to be in control of every aspect of my life now. This year, it will have to be that or [...]
Messy drawers
My messy drawers are not messy anymore! Thanks to my ever sweet sister who took the time to organize two drawers of mine a few days ago. She read my post and was moved to pity ha-ha-ha! Nah! She probably got frustrated with me whining about the drawers so she handled it herself! Thanks, sis! [...]
