Ramil and I have ended our movie hiatus last Saturday. After two years of not having stepped a foot inside a movie theater, we decided to celebrate our 15 months of married life by watching 300. I must say that we chose a worthy movie to watch.
I've heard and read a lot of raves about [...]

Right now, I am simply two things: a wife and a mother. I cannot even call myself a teacher because I am currently on maternity leave. My days these past few months has been all about struggling to be a decent mother to Mateo and a still-fumbling wife to Ramil.
A lot has changed ever since [...]

I’ve been feeling down lately. Blame it on all the changes happening around us. I feel like I need a break. I know the break is not going to come so the best option would be to remind myself of some things that might have been lost on me amidst all the nitty-gritty of baby [...]

With my boys.
These two people have been making my day lately. I only have to look at them to know that God has blessed me with so much. Nevermind that we’re not as financially comfortable as we want to. I have all the riches I’ll ever need.

I have been officially on maternity leave since this Monday. Which actually means I’ve been home alone also for most of the week. With no one to talk to, I found myself thinking about how it would be like if I am able to push through with my plans to be a stay-at-home mom. Since [...]

Around a year ago, Ramil and I had grand plans of celebrating our 1st year as husband and wife. We wanted to go somewhere and celebrate our anniversary by going on a 2nd honeymoon. Unfortunately, this idea wasn’t put into action because of the third person on the way. I was right smack in [...]

“Ramil, I still can’t believe we’re here now. Everything that we’ve planned and wished for are already happening. We’ve been through a lot, I never would have thought 15 years ago that you would be the man God wants me to be with. You’ve changed from being my classmate to being my best friend and [...]

This is our new toy.
I never thought I would be so excited by an item so….domesticated as the minispin.
Ever since we got married, Ramil and I would have our laundry done by a nearby laundry shop. This usually costs us around 250-300 every week. For the past 2 weeks, we’ve been bringing our laundry all [...]

According to ex-pregnant women and pregnancy books, an expecting mother may suffer from the Scatterbrain syndrome. Being a forgetful person even before I got pregnant, I was very worried about experiencing this.
At the start of the pregnancy, Ramil would tease me about having the scatterbrain syndrome whenever [...]

No, we are not lotto winners nor are we Deal or No Deal contestants. In fact, Ramil and I struggle every month to make ends meet. We’ve loaded our credit cards (unnecessarily, hehe!) and we have unpaid loans. Our combined salaries every 15th and 30th are used up even before we get them. We are [...]
