Nope, I’m not talking about an ex-boyfriend I’m talking about my love for the piano.
I started taking lessons when I was around nine years old. We didn’t have an actual piano then, all we had was a keyboard that my dad brought home from Japan. My lessons were actually on and off for several [...]

My sister just maxed out her card. The flurry of her Christmas shopping left her with little awareness with how much she was charging in her card. I remember last year when she was still planning on getting herself a Fair Credit Credit Cards, she even browsed different credit cards to find the best one [...]

Ramil will be going back to school next June. He has long been wanting to take up the teaching units required of him. Both of us are not education graduates and yet we are teachers. Ramil took up BS Biology while I took up BS Mathematics. None of us seriously thought that we would be [...]

I used to have a lot of silver jewelries. Silver rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. Ramil and I even had these matching rings. When you’d want to have some jewelry and gold is too expensive for you, silver is usually the more practical alternative. Some people buy these precious metals not just for vanity’s sake. [...]

My generation is slowly entering that time in our lives when almost everyone we know is getting engaged. I still remember last year when my male officemate was asking around about diamonds.

Ever since Ramil learned how to drive, I’d always find an excuse not to drive. Don’t get me wrong, I used to love driving but with the traffic and parking I soon lost my interest in it. Parking can be such a hassle especially if you are in a hurry. My grandma’s friend who lives [...]

Since Ramil and I have plans of starting our own business, we’re usually very interested in anything that would help us learn more about starting our own business. We also do research every now and then and we also try to keep ourselves updated on new technology and the latest craze. One of our concerns [...]

I’ve been racking my brains for the perfect Christmas gift for my mom. Ever since I became a mom, I understood more how much my mother went through for me. Thinking that she took care of me the way I’m taking care of Mateo made me realize how much mothers love their children. I am [...]

Now that I am married, I don’t expect to be included in a wedding’s entourage list. It seems though that some people don’t care whether their entourage are married or not. I still remember when we were planning our wedding. We had some difficulty finalizing our entourage list because some people we wanted to include [...]
