  • Absolute people pleaser to a fault. I’ve had my pendulum period of adjustment (meaning I fluctuated between being too nice and being an asshole) over a couple of years ago. Glad to say that I’m at that Goldilocks spot of being courteous/tactful without being too much of a jerk (unless warranted).

    Hindsight being 20/20, it was really painful to look back on just how much I bent my back over/hoops I had to jump through to just please people/avoid their displeasure. The rage upon finding out i was being duped/used is real, but I’m glad I had some sort of a support system to smooth out the rough edges of my temper. 0/10 would not let anyone go through this.

    Remember: trashy peoples’ opinion of you are a dime a dozen, and there are more than a dozen toxic people out there.

    Choose wisely who you spend your fucks on.




  • My first birthday.

    I have no memories of it that I recall, but I do have pictures. Everyone was happy, problems were much simpler back then. It is what these photos trigger in me that make it a favorite childhood memory, though there are much more memories.

    Not that I long for those days again, rather I look at them with appreciation and cherish those memories in pictures, even if my one y.o. self could not retain those moments in my memory at the time.

    I used to (ignorantly) find taking pictures pointless. Looking back, I’m glad I had pictures of important moments like these. Not the SOCMED kind, but the truly special moments, the snapshots of our lives.



  • Saying shhhh pag nakabagsak ka ng gamit.

    It’s just so funny ung (silly) concept of removing all responsibility from you being the one na nakalaglag ng gamit by implying a shhh mo na ibang tao ung nakabagsak and hindi ikaw.

    I’ve seen and heard this much from my parents to the point that i unwittingly do it from time to time (though I try to limit it).

    I guess it’s the false sense of comfort you feel by convincing yourself na hindi ikaw ung nakabagsak ng gamit kaya lagi nila ginagawa un LMAO.








  • I wasn’t afraid of the dark, nor was I afraid of aswangs, manananggal, etc.

    No, my young dumbass was afraid of this (first 5 seconds pa lang tangina I was scared shitless (literally would cry sa first 5 seconds pa lang ng music). Never stayed to finish the intro, never even waited to find out what the hell this game was… until like I was 16 (ish).

    I was really furious to find out SEVERAL YEARS LATER that this was not even remotely close to a horror game, but a fucking Mahjong game (Dragon’s Eye Plus Shanghai 3). Really glad that no one really remembered from my circle of friends, or else they would have NEVER, ever let me live this shit down LMAO.

    This was my #KidsAreFuckingStupid moment.




  • Thank you!

    I’m no expert cook, pero feel ko parang kaya. Masyado lang overpowering ung lansa kasi tinanggal lang namin ung juices and sinarsa ung onion and diretso lagay ng sardines. I have to admit ung texture reminded me of tuna pesto and bigla ako natakam.

    Siguro nga it could either be too much sardines (this was just one can to 2 packs of pancit) as well.

    Naka mental note na sya and fingers crossed when we do it again it turns out better.
