As a little child, just like so many others, I have always loved and believed in fairy tales. I still can recall how it felt watching those movies... it always made me feel good and the world seemed so much brighter and sweeter. But growing up means giving up some of those fantasies because they seemed to just drift away, out of grasp...or simply put, they become something 'out of reality.'

Now we're done to the last three destinations. You all set to go?My eight destination is Russia. It is for me the best place to chill out. Almost everyone I meet who had been to Russia had their both thumbs up. If by chance you've seen the movie of Clive Owen and Angelina Jolie (Beyond Borders), James Bond movies, and The Saint, you'll not argue with my point. It is very cold out there and

A week ago, I was shocked to learn that the Korean female lead in Attic Cat, which I loved truly, was found dead by suicide.

Almost two weeks ago, a colleague of mine from Philhealth has passed away due to renal failure. Although we already knew of his inevitable fate as early as last year, we were still not prepared to let him go. How could we when that person was someone whom we used to saw everyday, someone whom we oftentimes ate lunch or dinner with, or someone whom we've practically considered as a 'family'...For

Your parents raised you. Your spouse lives with you. But it's your brothers and sisters who really shaped you. Surprising research reveals how. Why childhood fights between siblings can be good...How not being Mom's favorite can have its advantages...Why your sibling is--or isn't--your best role model...How a sibling of the opposite sex can affect whom you marry...How those early bonds can grow

It’s so real…everything is so real!” After arriving from the airport, we were fetched by a friend who’s a local there and we went right out on his pick-up. It must have been autumn there because I was feeling a little cold…

I looked at the rain gushing into the window panes,they seemed so happy just glidin' and sliding anywhere,every drop washes over every dirt and soil,like replacing everything with serenity and peacefulness...As the rain pours hard and loud,I hear my heart pounding in sync with its rhythm...How I wish it can reach my heart and drench it cold'til it breathes no more.If I die, I'd like to be bathe

Why is it that simple words could cut deep in one's soul? Why is it too hard to forget harsh words spoken even though you try hard convinving yourself that they were uttered insincerely and unintentionally?Why is it hard to forget bitter memories? Is it some kind of a curse that once it's let out, it could never be reversed? Or if it can be, how? They say be careful of the words that you utter

After two-gruelling days of pure work, the guests we're ready to have fun...and due to public demand, Blue Room was booked and sealed for the whole night just for us (this is a repeat of last year's CoRe Final Meeting in Davao City).I should say that at first we were quite worried that not eveyone would enjoy the set-up...but we were proved wrong (15 mins. after!) Well, they're set to have fun

Last week was a very hectic one for us here in PRO XI, Davao. We had almost 40 VIP guests arriving, a two-day meeting to organize, lots of sidetrips to accommodate, and tours to make.As guests started pouring in on June 6 (Tuesday), everything was set...Itineraries were laid out...All they had to do was relax, enjoy the city, and get down on business.

Last weekend, since it was a long weekend, I did what I usually do on such occasions....indulge in a dvd marathon! The theme for the day was: inspiring war stories...Innocent VoicesJoyeux NoelAnd so I watched American Soldiers, Joyeoux Noel, and Innocent Voices (Voces Inocentes). Among the three, what really left a sting in my heart and mind was the latter. It's about surviving against all odds:

If I had applied a visa back then, would I have gotten one? I remember watching an independently-produced Filipino film, La Visa Loca, almost two years ago. It depicted every Filipinos’ dream of going abroad and hardships in acquiring a visa, any visa at that. Sometimes people opt to desperate measures just to be able to get a visa…selling family belongings, sometimes heirloom, loaning money

Ironic though it may seem that during such sanctimonious moments, all that we could think about are 'plans' of vacations and relaxation for the Holy week. Are we all becoming apathetic Christians?I for one is guilty of this. I remember then that holy week means observance of fasting, penitence, and indulgence. We never fail to observe 'Bisita Iglesia' and participate in the 'Way of the cross'.

Have you ever experienced being sleepless at nights? at any place? Last weekend, I was doing nothing special. It was excruciatingly hot...the best that you can do is stay in a cool room with dvds and a cable tv.At first, I watched "Just Friends" movie...it was cute and funny. I think I can relate to that movie...well not in the sense that I was fat and all but being 'unnoticed' during my puberty

As had been our tradition here in the office, a mass was held last Friday morning. Normally, I hardly get to attend in such activity because on most instances, I'm late or if not, I'm tied with urgent tasks. Anyways, as I was early to arrive in the office that day, I was able to hear the service. I never had great expectations from the masses that I attend into. Most often than not, I usually get

Our theme for this year's Christmas party is "Philhealth Buhay-Bata (PBB)"...It was held in Garden Oases and Restaurant last December 16, 2005. It was supeeer fun...anything a child would want in a party...parlor games, live band, group presentations! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

After the entire craze for the Christmas activities, I am finally breathing normally again, my classes and exams were so over for this year…I was quite depressed about my test results though. I admit I wouldn’t be feeling this way had I not been so involved in our office activities. But on the other hand, I had fun doing it and being part of all craze…I guess I’ll just have to manage my time more

With all the activities, I missed doing some of my daily routines. I hardly get the chance to write on my blog lately though I still visit a few of my regulars' homes...and it seems I'm not the only one who's probably hazed and dazed!Yesterday was a great day...we had our carolling competition, again here in our office.

I was surfing the net for possible costumes which I could make a reference with regard to my upcoming events...aside from the Christmas costume party and hawaiian debut party, I have just received an invitation to a formal wedding party! Well, it's useless to whine now since I've already made a post about it here.I was searching sites for designer brands when I encountered this quiz...I took it

As if it's not enough that I had to think for a costume for our office's Christmas party, I am again beset with what to wear in a debut party of my boyfriend's sister, Joan.Our office's party theme is "Children's party", specifically toddlers' party. So, all of us must wear toddler costumes. Every year, our theme varies...in 2002, it was a Hawaiian party...in 2003, Christmas in the Jungle...last

If you remember, the whole country was shook with the news of a plane crush somewhere in Cagayan de Oro City in 1998.Just today, my cousin Archie (who's now based in Virginia, USA), emailed to me the link of his mom's article printed here in the internet.

September passed by unnoticed. No September chills. No christmas songs on radio. No little boys and girls carolling on our block, or anybody's block either. No lanterns hung and lit yet. No joyful greetings exchanges. It's November. 40 days to go before Christmas Day...still I don't hear my favorite Christmas songs being played on air, at least not as oftern as the past Christmases.

Several weeks ago, I made a post here about my thoughts on pursuing Nursing as a career. Well, yesterday, one of my officemates asked me if I had plans of enrolling into a Special Program for Nursing. She told me about her plans of doing so. I got so excited. Then out of the blue she said, we needed to enroll this semester to avoid future complications.We called up the school where we're

But arggggh, I can't help but be sore about it! I was looking forward to another weekend on an island with white sands. So much for that!

Looking back, my cousin (who’s currently a Head Nurse in a certain hospital in Houston) was telling us to study nursing. He was also a nursing student then. When I told him that I was planning to enroll into a Social Science course in U.P., his comment was, “ Huh? Walay kwarta dira.

By the ways, I am the type of person who waits than seeks when it comes to friends. Most of my closest friends I didn't happen to exert effort of finding them.

Peoples' feelings are like those eggs in the picture...the eggyolk represents our innemost feelings, the eggwhites serve as the buffer between the internal and external forces, while the shells protect it from being breached. Eggs are fragile, breakable, and tarnishable. There are times that no matter how hard we try not to hurt other people's feelings, we still end up doing the very thing.
