It was May 2003 when this 'ultimate fandom' started. I never thought that until this year (2014), my ever first love Asianovela will be shown again. I couldn't recall how many times it shown by two giant local networks in the Philippines. What I love right now is how we reminisce' this so-called 'Ultimate Throwback.' [caption id="attachment_9635" align="aligncenter" width="300"] My friends surprised me with this Album on my birthday![/caption] Meteor Garden captured the heart of Filipino audience. Remember the Meteor Fever segment in the afternoon wherein everyone go- crazy buying and collecting those stuffs from tumblers, pencils, notebooks and even umbrellas? Who lined for Pepsi's promo? and bought several cans to take home some memorabilias like mousepad or glasses? During those times, we learned how to sing Mandarin songs without understanding its meaning. Thanks to the internet, we research the pin yin/ romanized and learn...

I remembered that Internet was first introduced in my school wherein we can browse to research our assignments and current events. We were given a free (3 hours) usage per month in our library. From there, I began to surf the net and practice HTML which was our first project in Computer Subject. Many of us (girls) took the chance to browse our favorite Hollywood 'male' celebrities. It as 1997 (Titanic) when I noticed a lot of my schoolmates were downloading images of Leonardo DiCaprio, each of them giggles on the side and printing some of his latest news.

Then, I created my first webpage through Yahoo Website Builder as our school project. Our goal that time was to create a portfolio. T...

Last week, I finally said goodbye to 34 years and now I still don't feel am 35 (feeling kid again, yeah?) .When I was 30, I celebrated all month with different people in my life - family, friends and officemates. During those years, I somehow reached some of my goals like pursuing a good career, traveling with friends and meeting new people (leaving them as well). [caption id="attachment_9609" align="aligncenter" width="270"] Cowabunga, Pizza Party![/caption] The next life will be more challenging. But before that, let me reflect on these 34 years. 1. Independence I live independently during those 11 years. I have my own choices, taking charge of myself was such a big challenge. And, the best thing is I have started to take a direction which was I didn't expect to happen - a career that makes more interesting. 2. Learn to improve Yes, I don't have much room for improvement but I'm doing my best to exert efforts. I was being challenge one d...

I'm too lazy to blog for the past months, or ran out of topic to posts but this advocacy came into straight from my inbox and I love to share it with you. Prepare for a box of tissues because the message is very touchy. Too all future moms out there, don't be afraid if you have find out that your child has Down Syndrome. “What kind of life will my child have?” A scared mom-to-be wrote to CoorDown (Coordinator of the National Association of People with Down Syndrome) when she learned she was expecting a child with Down syndrome. The organization, in collaboration with Saatchi & Saatchi Italy, responded by creating this #DearFutureMom campaign: World Down Syndrome Day takes place on March 21st. Help spread the important message behind Dear Future Mom to help advocate the right to happiness and well-being of people with Down syndrome.

One of the greatest attraction in Chicago during the celebration of St Patricks day is turning Chicago River into Irish green. It has been celebrated for almost 40 years (now a tradition), and if we are thinking how they did it? It was a miracle (joke!) --- they said it was just a formula created and tested by independent chemists. Don't worry it's safe for the environment. The parade started at 10am last Saturday March 16 and the best location to see them was from the East side of the bridge at the Columbus drive or lower Wacker drive. You may check this site for more information, http://www.chicagostpatsparade.com/ Fortunately, or unfortunately we're lost in Magnificent mile? We were able to see this bridge. While am tracking our location via GPS, Mommy took this photo.
