It takes very little to make me emotional these days. Even a song that I find beautiful makes me teary-eyed. We have a neighbor who is six months pregnant now. She’s having a hard time with her pregnancy and I find it really moving that she gave up her lucrative job to be able to [...]

If you could do it again, what group from high school would you hang out with more? You know what, this is a really good question. I met up with an old friend a few days ago and it made me think of my choices in the past. Of course, I didn’t dwell on it [...]

August is a hard month for many people. My friend is pregnant and will pop out the baby soon. The girls and I are planning a baby shower for her but we are on a budget. The funds will come from our own pockets so if we can find free baby shower invitations, that would [...]

I remember being so enamored with reading this teen pocketbooks when I was in high school. Sweet Dreams. I didn’t have the money to buy any of the books so I borrowed. Some classmates of mine had them so I read what I could get my hands on. P.S. I Love You is the first [...]

I am trying my best to be more patient now. Instead of getting angry over little things like I used to do, I now practice being understanding. Like for example, the little kid spilled water over her clothes, I just say change your clothes and that’s it. Whereas before it’s a source of annoyance to [...]

For Gaby and her groom, nothing extravagant when it comes to wedding invitations. These two people are very practical when it comes to their wedding preparation. They don’t want to spend so much on their wedding and have nothing after that. In their minds, and in my mind as well, everything starts the day after [...]

Do you remember those little angel figurines that became so popular in the ’90s here in the country that in almost every occasion you’d get one? My mom loved those figurines a lot! We used to have a bunch of it on display but since packed all of it when we thought we were relocating. [...]

I love the color, the design, the metal ladder and the matching desk and chair. I just know that the [...]

Before I chose a web hosting plan, I made sure that I asked around. I called up friends and asked them about their web [...]

Watching cable tv can be a means of escape for those besieged with worries. Like me. When I just want an instant escape from everything, I turn on the tv, find a cable channel where I can lose myself into and tune in until I feel a bit okay. I know this can be construed [...]

There are days when I feel like being quiet. I love the serenity brought on by being alone. But there are days when I feel like being in a crowd, in the middle of festivities where everyone is having fun. So when I heard that the place I frequent when I was still working for [...]

Pillows. I love pillows. I have so many at home, in different sizes and different designs. It is my comfort when I am feeling sick or down. It gives me warmth. I have a body pillow that I couldn’t sleep without. It’s been with me for years. I always have it laundered to make it [...]
