Blog Challenge: What’s on your iPod? I barely have an hour and a half before this day ends this side of the world. I was planning on posting Day 14 around noon but then, I woke up after lunch. Then we went to the grocery to buy supplies and to get something for the relief operations we have at work. So, anyway, first thing: I don’t own an iPod and I have never had one. It’s not necessarily because I can’t afford to get one, I just never thought of buying one for myself. I guess it is because I […]

Blog Challenge: Do you have regret? This is a hard question to answer for me. And I have to be careful in how I answer this because I may say something that I would probably regret later on and it would add to the list of things that I regret. Not that the list is that long, anyway. I think. So, do I have regrets? I guess at some point in life, we all regret something. Could be something that we said, something that we did, something that we did not say or did not do. You wouldn’t really know […]
Day 12: Something That I Miss and A High Angle
Blog Challenge: Something that I miss I just transitioned from being single with no dependent to being single with dependent. In other words, I just became a parent. And as most of the people who, well, technically changed status, there will always be a few something that you miss doing. I hope I will not be looked at in a bad angle for being honest with this topic. One of the things that I miss is my “me” time. Before I got pregnant, I have the liberty to do whatever I want whenever I want. I have quite an impulsive […]
Typhoon Heartbreak
I couldn’t sleep. I am tired, my back hurts, my head is starting to hurt and I really, really want to sleep now, yet my mind is still awake. So let me just segue a bit from the usual mommy journey that I have been blogging about lately. My country has been hit with what was declared as one of the strongest typhoons Friday last week, leaving a lot of places totally devastated. I have tried to avoid watching the news but to no avail since my Facebook page newsfeeds was full of news. I have browsed some of them […]
Day 11: Last Book Read and Bath Time
Blog Challenge: Last Book Read Geez, the last time I read a book feels like a lifetime ago. Let me see, hmmm. I think the last book I read was one of the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. I just can’t remember if it was book 16 or something else. So I guess if you want me to tell you the synopsis, I can’t. I don’t remember how the story goes. There was a time when I had way too much time on my hands that I could grab a book and read until I finish it or until […]
Day 10: Daily Routine and Favorite Toy
Blog Challenge: Daily Routine Yeah. Uh huh. What routine? LOL! I think I lost my routine when I started my maternity leave. The routine that I knew was: wake up, prepare for work, go to work, get coffee, work, work, work, work, get something to eat (if I remember to eat), work, work, get coffee, work, (is that light outside? Oh crap it is almost morning, I gotta get home), work, go home, prep for bed, sleep for the next 3-4 hours. Then the whole thing starts again. During weekends, the scenario would be, wake up, stare at the ceiling, channel […]
Day 9: Bucket List and Where They Sleep
Blog Challenge: Life List / Bucket List I don’t have an actual list written down somewhere although there are quite a lot of things that I would like to do before I die. Or before I get too old to do them. I don’t know if I will ever be able to do them, but then who said you can’t dream of something outrageous, right? So, here are a few of the things that I have in my virtual list: 1) Skydiving. This is something that I have wanted to do for a long, long time. The thought of jumping […]
Day 8: Biggest Pet Peeve and Favorite Photo
Blog Challenge: Biggest Pet Peeve My biggest pet peeve: government offices. Seriously. I hate dealing with government offices. If I could only avoid it, I would. But a lot of requirements needed come from government agencies. And trust me, I could go on and on and on and on about my complaints for each and every agency I’ve encountered. My top reasons for this will be: red tape, their lack of respect for time, a lot of known loopholes in the process but no action is being done to fix it. I guess those are the top ones reasons I […]
Day 7: Dream Job and Nap Time
Blog Challenge: Dream Job I dunno. I wanted to be a pediatrician for the longest time. Then I made a turn to a different direction. Then there was a time when I my goal was to become an executive. Not sure what kind, though. 😛 I would go up the corporate ladder easily, own three cars and a house. Well, not exactly a dream job. Anyway, I haven’t really thought about this for a long, long time. I have always thought that climbing the corporate ladder will be easy as 1-2-3. I never realized that being in the corporate world […]
Day 6: Last Random Act of Kindness and Breakfast
Blog Challenge: Last random act of kindness How would you know if something you did is indeed an act of kindness? I’ve been thinking of what to blog about this topic since last night and I always come back to this question. What if something you did is just part of what you normally do? You don’t even think about it afterwards. Unknowingly, the person on the receiving end felt like you handed them the world and thinks that you are the kindest person ever? (exaggeration intended :P) Let’s create a scenario here with the above premise. I will exaggerate […]
