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 got there, I understood how to help him better and relayed this information to his secretary for further instructions. 

Lolo Brian treated me to lunch. His simple gesture to thank me for coming with him. I love my Lolo Brian so so much! I got adobo in kimchi rice with a sunny-side-up egg. It was okay, but it made me very full, I did not even finish the whole serving!

After our late lunch, we went to a flower shop to buy some flowers for Lola. We picked a white and red-themed arrangement since RED was her favorite color. When we got Lola's flower, we went directly to her and arranged it very carefully while Lolo's driver was cleaning the mausoleum. Before heading back to the office, we offered a prayer in the form of the Holy Rosary.

That's how a Productive Day Before Heart's Day should be! Or maybe just for me 😉

I just realized that God works in mysterious ways! Lola used to grow orchids in her garden and I have loved looking at them since I was a child. Maybe it was His way of reminding me to help my Lolo and offer prayer to Lola in her resting place.

Thank You, Lord! Thank You for always giving me signs that serve as a reminder in my daily life. Thank You for giving me a chance to experience the love and care both my Lolo and Lola have to offer. I am so grateful to have them in my life!

These photos made me realize I have to get my hair treated!!! The hair looks really dead AF 😂

Becoming 21 - Still Becoming

Becoming 21 - Still Becoming Office | Louisiana ES - Lourdes Ext.  May 07, 2024 Who am I? It’s a question I’ve carried with me every day for the past 21 years. Some days I think I’ve found the answer. Most days, I realize I’m still searching. Lately, I’ve been making decisions that feel like a turning point — choices that may not make sense to others but feel necessary for me. For peace. For freedom. For growth. The kind of decisions that whisper, “This is your life now — own it.” It hasn’t been easy. This year, I: Chose not to enroll in any college subjects. Declined an exam my mom wanted me to take. Ended a 7-year romantic relationship. Each decision was made with a heart full of fear, but also with a quiet fire of courage. These weren’t acts of rebellion. They were steps toward something bigger: my becoming. I don’t have a backup plan. No safety net. Just faith — in myself, in God, and in the path unfolding before me. People may not agree, but that’s okay. This...

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.

  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!)
