There are days when I just want to give in to my craving for junk foods. Never mind the cholesterol they’d be giving me. The following is a list of what I usually buy whenever I need that unhealthy-food-fix. 10. Piattos Sour Cream Flavor by Jack and Jill- cheaper than Lay''s Sour Cream 9. Moby Chocolate Puff- puffy and airy sensation in the mouth 8. Dingdong Mixed Nuts by JBC Food- whenever

Whether you plan on having a civil or a church wedding, the Marriage License is a requirement in getting married in the Philippines. Application for the license can be secured at the local Civil Registry from the city, town or municipality where either the bride or groom resides. Your personal appearance is also a non-negotiable requirement in the said application. Philippine law prescribes a

Nuong bata pa ako, ang ideya ko tungkol sa Divisoria ay isang malayo, mainit, masikip na lugar kung saan kailangan kong mag-ingat sa naglipanang mga mandurukot, at kapag uwian na’y malagkit at mabaho ang pakiramdam. Not to mention, masakit ang ulo sa tindi ng araw. Whew! Puro negative, noh? ‘Yan ay nuong hindi ko pa naa-appreciate ang Divisoria. Pero simula nang magtrabaho ako’t nagkaroon ng

This article was written around 3 years ago. Hope this helps expectant moms who are starting to shop for their babies: The moment I realized I was pregnant, one of the things I was so excited to do was to shop for the baby. But it was only until I was 7 months pregnant that my husband and I made our first purchase for the baby – tie-side shirts. Being obsessed with lists, I asked family and

Aliya will be attending her first ever pajama party today! Yay! I don't even remember being able to attend one when I was a child, much more when I was already an adult. Their teachers were the ones who organized this, even suggesting to bring along blankets, snacks and flashlights. Haha! I'm excited for my little girl!

Bow ako sa ad agency sa likod ng TV ad na ito ng Meaty Ginisang Gulay Flavor Mix. Aside from maganda ang message (encouraging kids to eat their veggies), ok din ang recall ng song, madaling i-memorize ang lyrics, very visual, very appealing, cute ang CGI at mga sikat na child stars ang mga talent nila. Very child-friendly. This is Aliya’s current favorite. Super saya niya kapag napapanood ang ad

Romy’s best friend Gerald Garcia’s wife Emily gave birth May 27 at The Medical City. We went to visit them right after giving Aliya her morning bath. Chatting with Emily and watching her fresh out of the delivery room made me remember what I myself went through when I gave birth in Sept last year. Made me remember to write my BIRTHING STORY.

Moreover, He’ll make sure you get your just reward. Your responsibility is to remain calm and peaceable even when

Sa blog ng kaibigan kong si datzitdatzol, sinulat niya kung paano niya hinahangad na mapadpad sa Fleet Street ang mga kinaiinisan, kinamumuhian niyang mga tao. Mga taong gusto niyang makadaupang-palad ang character ni Johnny Depp sa Sweeney Todd. Hindi ko napanood ang pelikula, mahina ang sikmura ko sa mga ganoong klaseng eksena, pero aaminin ko, sa mga pagkakataong nagagalit din ako, naiisip

Huwaaa!!! Our beloved neighbors Simon and Jacque Tan moved out today, and I'm so sad! It seems only yesterday when Jacque and I were preparing for our respective weddings and scouting for houses to rent. I found this apartment bldg near my parents' house when this was still, literally, a skeleton. I showed this to Romy, he liked it and we reserved for unit A. I know Simon and Jacque were looking,

Romy and I were watching something on TV the other night. It was about a family who badly needed financial, spiritual, emotional support. It was burdensome to watch, but I also felt a different kind of burden. I was burdened to help. I feel this way a lot of times. For years I have been like this and it’s one of my most consistent characteristics. I watch, hear, read about someone needing help

Sabi ng OB ko, don’t let the baby control you. You’re the parent, you should learn to be in charge. Sabi ng Babywise na book, doable daw na ngayon pa lang makapag-set na ng sleep and feeding routine para sa baby. Itong mga sinabi nila, example ng “madaling sabihin, mahirap gawin.” Minsan nga, feeling ko, imposible gawin. In fact, as I write this, super nagmamadali ako. Nagmamadali mag-type at the

My daughter Aliya will be one month old tomorrow. The whole family is happy and grateful for her, she’s such a wonderful bundle of joy. She’s brought so much love and happiness to each member of the family like no one else has done before. She, too has totally changed our lives. People say one’s life will never be the same again once a baby is born to a family. Indeed, my life has totally changed

1. Whatever I’m doing, drop it at least 30 minutes before my husband arrives from the office. I don’t want to be caught smelly and my face oily. 2. Even if my scripts are yet to be finished, make it a point to be ready for bed with husband, even if it’s just for snuggling. 3. Try and experiment with new dishes so as not to bore husband. 4. Stay at home most Saturdays as it is husband’s rest day.

maraming nangyayaring injustice sa mundong ito. mga injustice na directly at indirectly affected ako at mga kaibigan ko. kaya ang prayer ko for the longest time, God, please move! please do something, please rebuke and teach them the lesson na hindi nila makakalimutan. do something sa buhay nila to the point na kahit ang matigas nilang puso ay lumambot para sa inyo. change situations in my favor!

Natuloy din ang Bohol trip namin ng family at ng husband ko last week. Grabe, parang antagal namin hinintay ang trip na yon! Dahil I booked it nung may Php10 promo ang Cebu Pacific nuong February, we literally waited for it for 3 and a half months! Yun ang pinakamatagal na booked trip ko. Usually kasi, mga isang buwan lang from the time of booking to the actual trip. Imagine, I postponed getting

It’s been five months, going on six since I got married. There has been a lot of changes, but nothing mind-boggling, thank God. Adjustments abound, though, specifically my body clock. Would you believe I wake up at 6 in the morning, whereas when I was still single, 6am is still madaling araw for me! Though I go back to bed once my husband leaves for work at 7, it’s still a big change for me to be

Barely a day since my laptop and I met and I’m already so fond of him. I think he’s going to be a close friend, someone I’ll be hanging around with a lot of times. I declare that this laptop, whose name I am still thinking of, will be reliable, dependable, shall give me wonderful times and excellent scripts, shall not catch any virus or any form of disease and problems. I am looking forward to

It’s been 15 days since I finally became a Mrs Parayno. It’s been a journey, a revelation, a really fun and exciting adventure. I learned and am learning a lot. So far, everyday is an exciting experience, even if we’ve come back from our Hongkong rendezvous. Hindi natatapos sa out of the country ang happiness! Anyway, since everyday there are new things to do and accomplish, I haven’t given out

It is October 24. And it means we have exactly a month to go before the wedding! The wedding that we started planning 9 months ago, the wedding which seemed so far away just a few months back… it is finally here, very soon! Last Thursday, my sister Belle told me her gift, a double stove burner has been delivered to her office that day. Thursday night she brought it here at home… may kalan na kami

Oct 7-9 was such a wonderful weekend. Romy and I attended the Discovery Weekend in Mapayapa Village, QC. it was a 3-day stay-in retreat that's aimed to focus on each other as an engaged couple. cellphones and even watches were not allowed! i was nega about it at first, but later realized it was worth sacrificing these gadgets even for just a while!

i woke up today excited. excited to head straight to the munisipyo and claim our marriage license that we applied for ten days ago! yehey! and yes, i did get it and it was just thrilling to see our names there at the license to marry form! haha, kahit bukas pwede na kami magpakasal! joke!

it's September 26, barely two months to go from our wedding day! although the major tasks for the wedding have been confirmed, paid for, finalized, still there are some nitty-gritties that have yet to be ironed out. whew, as the day gets nearer, the more emotions i'm going through!

It's a nice feeling. having paid almost half of the caterer contract today? who said something like this will make me feel light? that something like this will make me feel accpomplished? to think it's only monday today, ha? haha, only bride to be's can relate, i guess. or should i say, only hands-on and obssessive compulsive bride to be's, to be specific.
