Rants and Raves


  • Weekend Adventures

    I had another one of those magastos but fantastic weekend that started out with dinner and movies with the boyfriend on a Friday night and ended by braving the heat and the Quiapo/Binondo crowd on a food trip with Hannah Banana and of course, the boyf 🙂 Can’t wait to go back. Gearing up for… Continue reading

  • May Asim Pa

    I was out with the boyf and a few of my friendsslashdrinkingbuddies for a dinner of gargantuan proportions (read all about it here). Jon whipped out his cool Android phone and took a pic of me and had me aged several decades old. Here’s what I look like maybe 40 to 50 years from now:… Continue reading

  • The Love That Feels Brand New :)

    To the most patient, understanding and super sweet boy I know, happy 6th, my love 🙂 I’m so lucky to have you. This one’s for you: Continue reading

  • Kikay Moment

    Yes, I do wear make-up whenever I go out. However, I don’t go all out with  tri-color eye shadows, shadings and the whole nine yards. With this heat, the last thing I want is to feel icky under all that make-up.  I see girls that,  after exposure to the sun, got these cake-y, disgusting masks… Continue reading

  • Back to Solids

    So the 9 days of torture is over, I actually made it without faltering, how awesome is that? Well, technically, I cheated on the 8th and 9th day but I had to because I’ll be celebrating 6th month of “togetherness” with the boyfriend with a cozy dinner tonight so he feels that I should ease… Continue reading

  • Weekender

    Since I cannot use my Facebook page or Twitter page as an avenue to rant about how fucking hungry I am right now, I’m gonna abuse this space. So. Yes, seven days into the Master Cleanse program and I’m dying for meat, lard, among other things. What makes matters worse is that I got a… Continue reading

  • Master Cleanse: Day Five

    I made a mental note to blog about the Master Cleanse diet as soon as I made it to the five day mark. For those interested or those who want to subject themselves to the same torture, here’s the recipe: For an average 12 fl. oz/355 ml glass (or to make it less complicated, a… Continue reading

  • Easter

    First off, let me just show you a picture that I am in, which, for once, angles worked on me. I hate seeing bad pictures of me being posted on public forums like Facebook (or worse, being tagged for it pa!) ever since I got a little soft around the gut area. Great pictures are… Continue reading

  • A Medley of Aches and Pains

    I rarely get sick. But when I do, I’m so fucking useless, it’s almost laughable. I had a pretty interesting week, actually. From Sunday to Monday, I was afflicted with a bad case of gastritis. By Tuesday, I got the worst kind of migraine. From Wednesday til now, I’m down with a cold, severe cough,… Continue reading
