I didn’t know why my friend told me she’s celebrating Black Friday when it’s supposed to be a time to commemorate the Lord’s suffering for us Catholics. She laughed at me and told me that it’s a day for great deals! So that was why she’s so happy! My friend’s a shopaholic. She shops and [...]
When my mom was alive, she’s the one who cooked our food. She came from a family of excellent cooks so it’s natural that she’s as good as them. But when she passed away, we struggled for a while. My sister took over the chore of cooking for the whole family. It’s not as good [...]
Our family has a history of early marriages. My parents married when they’re in their 20s. An aunt married when she’s just 19. And some uncles even married in their early 20s as well. So it’s no surprise that a cousin is now planning to settle down while still in college. His mom has a [...]

I guess being online more than 12 hours a day has some advantages. Like I can get on free online auctions and really pay close attention to the items I like. I also get to read the latest news and get to write about it before the others. Most of the time anyway. And when [...]
When we were kids, my dad was never around much. My dad’s often at work or with friends. And he has many friends! I remember we always had a visitor day after day. We even had “housemates” that are friends of my dad. It might be the reasons why we don’t like other people living [...]
I’ve said this time and again that preparing for the future is very important. It is hard to live with the principle of “come what may”. I am trying my best to take care of things as early as now. You never know what will happen tomorrow that’s why it is better to be prepared. [...]

One of the things I am thankful for is that I was born to a family with simple dreams and simple joys in life. We live in a modest house. My siblings and I went to private schools but nothing too fancy. We don’t have a car at the moment but we used to have [...]
Modern technology is really providing us with a lot of information about anything and everything under the sun. Imagine, there’s ancestry dna now wherein you can find out about your ancestry’s place in history! Amazing, isn’t it? It just goes to show that sooner or later, every known disease in this world will have it’s [...]
You might have noticed the irregularity with which I update this blog. The reason is that as much as possible, I limit my posts here to topics about the family. Or anything concerning a member of the family. When there’s really nothing good to write about, I don’t update. It’s that simple But then, I [...]
