Traversing Malatan-og Falls

  Traversing Malatan-og Falls DSB - Malatan-og Falls February 15, 2025 It's Saturday, and I woke up late today. There is not much I can do today since I already checked out my To-do list during the weekday. I decided I wanted to go for a swim and I invited my cousin, Manang Jel to accompany me in my spontaneous hiking craving! This is a much-needed break for us. We need rest and a break from the stress we are dealing with in our lives and this is how we cope with it! Manang Jel usually is my one-call-away friend and my walking buddy during the morning and night so we kind of had the endurance for the hike to Malatan-og. Although we were prepared, we still had some short stops to catch our breath! Gosh! It was not for the weak. The view was breathtaking and it sure did remove all the pain we felt (physically and emotionally, at least for me! 🤪) This is one for the books! Thank you, Manang Jel! Literally for everything! You are really present in the ups and downs of my life. You saw...

In Love ♥️

  In Love ♥️ Kabankalan City | Office | SM - Bacolod | La Salle | Home February 14, 2025 Today is a day to celebrate LOVE! Today is my first-ever Valentine's Day single! Today is a great day! Started my day attending bidding in Kabankalan City together with Dad and Ms. Roselyn. We went to different schools that are located in mountainous areas of Kabankalan.  When we went back to the office, we celebrated Valentine's Day with my angels by buying a heart-shaped cake. They devoured it like there was no tomorrow!  Before I attended a meeting in La Salle, I went to SM Bacolod to treat myself with some love. I decided to cut and treat my hair since it really is dead! (At least my hair would look livelier than my heart! JK!) I ended my day with a selfie at home and a shake-shake-fries from Mcdo as my dinner! this used to be my go-to hairstyle when I was in high school (Octopus/Layered Cut!)

Productive Day Before Heart's Day

  Productive Day Before Heart's Day Bantayan Park | IBP - Bacolod | Flower Shop | Lola Evelyn's Resting Place February 13, 2025 It's been a while since I haven't had my morning walks, and this Thursday was the day I changed it. I woke up early and was motivated to start my day. I don't even know where I'm getting this energy boost because, on the past few nights before, I lacked sleep.  I saw how the sun had risen while the moon was staying still. I am no Science geek, but this stuff fascinates me!  I also saw my favorite flower, orchids , I didn't hesitate to take a photo of them! Booths that are selling flowers and food are being brought up already because the city's festival is coming too soon (February 19) The day went on. When I got to my office, Lolo Brian was worried about his permits concerning his law firm operation. That is when I decided to help and went with him to the IBP Office in Bacolod City to understand the depth of his problem. When we...

February 12, 2025

  February 12, 2025 Home | Office | Martir-Gaudite Building February 12, 2025 The first photo was a random post from Facebook. I can truly feel that this resonates with what I am feeling about love lately. I don't mind when the love I give cannot be reciprocated. What I give is not wasted because those that I poured my love unto, deserve it. All I ever want is to be remembered as someone kind and someone who's love is overflowing! Today was a normal day. A few touch up with work and an afternoon run for errands. I ate a lot during my lunch break. It was a sumptuous meal prepared by Yayay! While I'm eating lunch, I am watching a movie entitled "Ruby Sparks" a film that was recommended by a dear friend of mine. It's actually a long overdue suggestion but I happen to only have free time today 😂 I was scheduled to leave after lunch but I was hooked by the film's plot and how the actors portrayed their roles -- where after researching about the film, I knew th...

First Tuesday of February 2025

  First Tuesday of February 2025 Home February 4, 2025 God is nothing but good to me. He knows what my heart contains; what my heart mourns and rejoices.  I started 2025 with the same gut retching feeling and emptiness I felt in 2024. It was only a few weeks when the year started that I began feeling it AGAIN. I am so tired of it. I thought when the year ended it will disappear as well, but it did not. The only hope I was clinging to was God. He's always sending me a message that I will get through it. Sometimes through a random IG or FB post, sometimes through people I encounter.  The message is so clear. He still wanted me to push through and continue. He knows how much I wanted to give up, but He made me hold on. Now, I can't wait to see what 2025 will bring. He made me His strongest warrior in 2024, what would I be now? This might seem uncertain, but one this is for sure -- that I'll always be His.

Kissing January Good Bye!

  Kissing January Good Bye! Timi & Thomas | Office January 30, 2024 My day started at the office, leaving the angels with tasks to accomplish for the day. I went to bacolod to get some stocks and to issue a check. When I was on my way back to the office, I remembered that I haven't eaten any meal and it was already past noon, I passed by my dad's building and decided to eat lunch at Timi & Thomas, I had cheese sticks, beef salpicao, and iced milk. I was really full after that meal! When I arrived at the office, work had already piled up and I got into it right away. The clocked turned 5, and it is closing time for our office already, though for me I stayed until 10PM! I had to finish my school outputs that day so that I won't be missing out in my weekly tasks. I didn't know where I get this courage: most of my outputs I opted out to do it individually than with a group so I had to deal with my actions!! GRR life happens, bye January -- what's in store for me...

Yayay Sabel's 75th Birthday

  Yayay Sabel's 75th Birthday Office  January 20, 2025 Yayay doesn't know that we have prepared something special for her birthday. My staff loves Yayay so dearly. We surprised her with a cake and a birthday song that led her into tears.  You are so loved by many, Yay! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During my younger years, Yayay was already there for me. She used to be very present in my life, especially when it comes to my dancing career.  I remember when I was still studying in Taytung during my kindergarten she was the one in charge to bring me to school, carrying all my school stuff, gym bag, and a very large water jug! She is a superhero in my eyes. She'll wait for me every dismissal. Her face is the first I seek when I go out of our classroom, it is a relief to always know that she is just there waiting for me. The day won't end there, we'll commute our way to th...
