Someone’s finally coming home.

I am too happy today to announce that I days ago I booked my round trip flight! It’s been months and weeks that I have been bothered about having the plan to go home yet I have not booked the ticket yet. Right now, it is all for real. One step closer to that day and I’m putting myself in that state of reality. Yes, I feel like all these are just part of a dream or a memory of the past. Mind you, this is the longest time I’ve …

2AM Today

I just came from work today, tired and very drained. I really miss the work I had way back in the Philippines. In college I had lots of activities in large organizations that allowed me to be doing office work yet be on the field when production shows are about to be up and running. After college I got into a company which was pretty much on the IT industry. Every work was facing the monitor screen and having your hands and fingers on the keyboard for ninety percent of …

263 days past and 80 days more to go.

Missing you has never been easy. Can’t wait. I wanna speed up in time, and let it freeze a lifetime.

Take me where I’ve never been
Help me on my feet again
Show me that good things come to those who wait
Tell me I’m not on my own
Tell me I won’t be alone
Tell me what I’m feeling isn’t some mistake
‘Cause if anyone can make me fall in love, you can
Save me from myself, you can
And it’s you and no one else
If I could wish upon tomorrow tonight would never end
If you asked me …

A Very Happy Mommy Day!

One of the best things in life is when someone can finally call you “Mommy”…
Yes, it is still fresh in my mind that very special day I gave birth to my very first baby. It was a feeling I know I will forever hold close to my heart ’til my last breathe. Being blessed to become a mother is ultimately giving me the strength and purpose of living my life in a way I would want my children to live theirs. I am very happy to be a mom. I …

Sweetest Virtual Valentine’s Date

Heart’s Day 2.14.2010

I’m lost for words. But here goes our share of planning and surprising each other.

Icay’s Surprise: What a week, if you knew what happened in between you’ll know this is going to be something different I must say. I decided to push through with the surprising. I have made surprises for Sweetest in the past but I guess this one is going to be unexpected. (And turns out to really be one!) I decided to ask a few friends, (You know who you two are! Plus our household …

TWO is better than ONE.

Now I know love isn’t painless. But it’s worth the risk; its worth the fight.
We both know it is.

I just wish we can be together on this special day. Life is indeed worth being with you. Even more than that. And I’m better with someone - I’m better with you. I’m a whole better person with you.
Here’s a song for you, Sweetest. You know I can’t sing! But I do dedicate this one for you.

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I …

Look-alike Mom and Daughter Challenge (Baby Photos)

Surprise! Here you go Sweetest. My desperate attempt to collect and collate my baby pictures with Yzzy’s baby pictures. You need to come up with your version too - once you get out of the very busy schedule you have that is. Oh well, maybe when I go home we could make yours then. I hope this justifies somehow that Yzzy looks like me! I tell you, its Tabby’s eyes that make her look so not-like-me. She is, and always will be a prettier and better version of Mommy.
Be …

HOLD ON.

Has someone ever told you God answers you?
For a lot of days now I have been giving myself heartaches. Honestly, I am so longing home. I have gone over Yzzy’s pictures for the most number of times than anyone could ever have. And it pains me to just go all through them knowing she’s growing up too fast without me. If you are reading this, and you think this is just nothing - all blabber. Please, spare me from another heartache. You’ll eventually feel how I feel if you ever …

Mama at 70

Wondering who our Mama is?
Well, she’s my mom’s mother, my grandmother, and Yzzy’s great grandmother. But we all call her Mama. Everyone does so.

She has been there to take care for me and my siblings way back years ago. And she did a good job helping my mom raise us all. Four kids - that is a lot. We were naughty but nice during those days. We would all run to Mama (and literally hide through her skirt) when Mommy is mad ) (and bringing the belt!) at us for …

Happy Birthday Rizza!

Meet Tabby’s only sister and Yzzy’s Aunt. We’re glad she’s spending time with Yzzy before she leaves. Cheers to a good life ahead of you, it is never too late to catch up on missed chances. Sometimes life gives you a lot of things to think about but hey, they were only made to make you see a different side of life. Not just those you want to see. Something to be thankful for, and yet a challenge to become a much much better person. No matter how you …

The White Rose.
White roses are the ultimate symbol of purity and innocence. It gives a wonderful feeling of positive vibes, peace and tranquility. It’s pristine exterior reflects the beauty and dignified meaning that it holds. Being one of the more popular roses (apart from the Queen of Roses – the Glamorous Red Rose), the White Rose, an understated and modest beauty holds great significance and is a symbol for interesting concepts which will be covered in this post.
The white rose in myths and legends
There are plenty of myths and legends …

A Love Story

Marking today as we turn two years, a month, and counting…
They say that love strikes you when you least expect it.
But some don’t call it love. Some call it an accident, and for some - true love. Its fate. Destiny. Its not about what people think anymore, its about what you both decide and hold on to…
What counts more than the years, months, weeks, or any measurement of time are the moments you have together.
Both good and bad.
From the start of friendship bound with fun, laughs, and pure happiness
to …
