At first I was afraid, I was petrified… I really didn’t know what was happening with the plant. Already unstable as it is from its current pot (I’ve been holding off repotting it since I acquired it last February), I initially thought that the three new shoots coming out were branching plants itself (that’s what…
I Am Wonderfully Made: My Covid-19 Experience
I can’t believe that after almost a year of hiatus from this blog, I’m finally back; just to document my Covid-19 experience. But I gathered the things I learned during isolation with the goal of giving good hope for everyone. My self-care regime failed me. It was Saturday (Apr 3) when I felt a different kind…
#SelfPortraits #IndaySeries (Part 2)
Can you believe it’s already December? It felt like we just had a quarter, a quarantine season and December this year. Anyway, couldn’t let the year end without finishing part 2 of my previous post (haha!) So, here goes the second half of the things we did this quarantine. #6 We Studied. Having a lot…
It’s Time To Prepare For Fall And Winter Style
We are on the verge of waving goodbye to another season during the COVID pandemic. While it’s been difficult to flaunt seasonal fashion so far this year, it’s important to stay positive. The world is slowly starting to open back up as we transition into the final quarter of 2020. People appear to be adapting…
#Self-Portraits #IndaySeries (Part 1)
Thank you for patiently waiting. I know that it’s been a while since my last post. But before anything else, I’d just like to say that from wherever you are reading this right now, I sincerely wish that you and your family continue to remain safe. It’s been the only thing I wanted to focus…
Egypt: The Recap
In the hopes of accomplishing something this ECQ (enhanced community quarantine) in Manila, I have decided to take advantage of online courses/ modules offered by different platforms. Okay, let’s just say that watching the legal drama Suits (started this time of COVID-19 lockdown too) sparked an interest in accomplishing something from Harvard University so naturally…
Antelope Canyon
Britney Spears was indeed lucky when she was able to shoot the music video for “I’m Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman” in Antelope Canyon in 2001. I guess it’s easy if you have the budget to buy all the tours available in the slot canyon for the day. For most of us though…
Joshua Tree National Park
Joshua Tree National Park was the last in our itinerary before starting my city tour of Los Angeles. Located at the borders of California, it was a convenient and an oh-so-wonderful stopover for a drive back from Arizona. What’s special about this protected area is that it is a transition zone between two deserts: the…
Horseshoe Bend
No matter how many articles I devour on how this geologic masterpiece was formed by nature, I still can’t wrap my head around it. Not sure if everybody feels the same way about Horseshoe Bend. It’s actually the same thing with Monument Valley as well as all the other attractions I visited in Arizona. Lol….
Monument Valley
“There are certain places in the world that seem like special effects, they don’t seem real. They’re too perfect.” – a film historian once said about Monument Valley. It was last minute when I brought up the idea of Monument Valley to Wil. It may have been a mere 2-hr drive away from Page, Arizona…
