Japanese yakisoba = oishii!
I was never good at cooking…so food was probably one of my parents’ worries when I decided to move out of the ‘ancestral’ (haha!) home to my own small sardine can apartment. They knew how I liked to gorge on Lucky Me pancit canton, even when...
I succumbed to the MAC 187!
Note: This post contains affiliate links. OK, I’ve just bought my very first MAC 187 brush — the Cadillac of all makeup brushes. Wallet damage is P2950. BUUUUT guess what? I don’t care. I’m just so happy to finally have one of my own, after...
I made Hello Kitty purin!
Since I’ve transferred to the Morayta school, I’ve been purin-deprived…until last week, when I dropped by Hatchin after meeting Schatz at his office for lunch. Boxes of purin mixes were calling out to me, yay! So I grabbed a few, and bought an extra cup...

Tax good news for the Working Class Pinoy
At least something to look forward to — paying less taxes to our government!! I am not anti-tax…I am just anti “paying hard earned money to those who don’t deserve it”. Hehe. Got this bit of good news from a friend (too lazy to read...
Nintendo DS keeps kicking PSP’s butt! (How Sony perdio the handheld war)
Oh yeah! I knew it! Dami ko nang kino-convince na mas maganda ang DS — maski nga estudyante ko, gusto kong bumili sila ng DS para kuno mapractice nila ang Japanese writing nila, hehe (kuno)…pero alam mo naman ang mga Pinoy — kaya nga hit...
DFA and passport renewal: The good, the bad and the ugly
Finally! After 50 long years of trying to get my passport renewed, I actually finished it today. YAY! My passport expired in March and it was only today that I was finally able to renew it. While I am not really scheduled to go anywhere soon,...
Say No to Toxic People!
So right! M likes to forward emails. Sometimes, I ignore them altogether (because they are mostly email money making schemes — you click, she earns). But there are also lots of forwarded ‘gems’ like this one and I thought it would be a shame if...
