Stir the waters a bit... As I look back to 2011, the only highlight that I can remember is my company transfer. Don't get me wrong, that's a major change in my life given that I've been with the same company for almost 8 years. But still, I have this nagging feeling that the year just zoomed past my consciousness. I was happy but I fear that my happiness in life made me lazy to do other things

WeddingsI really love attending weddings. Being part of a wedding ceremony makes me feel that I am part of the cycle of iife. Baptisms. weddings, birthday parties of toddlers are the notes that comprise the melody of life and cycle of nature. There is a need for us to celebrate. I know that it may be a bit traditional but it's essential for each major change in one's position in life to be

Musings for 2011As I sit her and ponder about the year that is ending in a few weeks, I can't help but wonder about the many life ripples that transpired that made it "The Year of CHANGE".Who could have thought that destinies change when the heart and mind unite. There were also a couple of items that seem to be unthinkable before and now has become reality. Meanwhile, I digress and think again

My struggle with weight Since I could remember, I was always the fat girl. I came into this world weighing 8lbs and ever since my first cry - I was overweight. I didn't mind this when I was growing up, I was considered cute and cuddly. My mom's officemate refer to me as Patsie. They get to feed me when I go to my mama's office and since I don't like to play games with the other kids, being fat

Don't SettleThe death of Steve Jobs made me realized that there are lessons that he preached that I have done in my life. I never settled for anything less than what I loved. My most recent decision to leave a managerial job was because I was turning into a person that was not true to my beliefs and my spiritual style.I didn't love my work then. Each day, waking up was a chore. I was a working

Hello, how have you been? Wow! It has been awhile since I visited and updated my blog. Things happened so fast and I wasn't able to get time to sync up my blog with my twitter and facebook updates. Although these social media tools are very useful, I think we all still need a space to confine our insane thoughts and aspirations. This is just a start and I think I will start updating this site on

Anyway, Car and I attended the 6th anniversary of the desserscomesfirst blog. It was very uplifting to be in a room of people who share the same passion to desserts as we do.

Seasons of Chow for Car and Nette The year 2010 was a good year for our palate. We were able to sample a good variety of dishes and I think despite my 20-pound weight gain every pound is worth it. As Mommie said, "The couple that eats together stays together." How can you split up when you are so happy with the companionship and the cholesterol oozing in our blood streams? Anyway, I digress once

But when I begin my relationship with my Iphone, I am a convert to super moder handheld devices. I literally don't open my laptop anymore when I am at home. I only need my Iphone to check my emails, facebook, update my twitter, watch videos, podcasts, etc. I don't want to work

Life Goes On...Funny how much strength these three words gave me tonight..."Life Goes On". It's true that whatever happens to the litle piece of universe we manage, life happens. The earth turns in its axis, night becomes day, and everyone goes about their business oblivious to the fact that the woman walking in the train station with head bent so as not to let strangers see her cry is in a state

Random thoughtsWe had to hide evidences of our relationship from facebook because Mommie's sister got into trouble at SSA. It seems that her teacher saw her kissing another girl. I just laughed but deep inside I was really annoyed.

The End of Poverty It has been quite some time since I bought a brand new book (not borrowed, not from a second-hand shop). I was supposed to buy a fictional book - something light to read. But I glanced through the bestseller's list and I saw the book by Jeffrey Sachs "The End of Poverty". Being in a very optimistic mood as Noynoy begins new management of RP, I bought the book in the hope that

Life HappensA very wise person who goes by the name John Lennon said - "Life is what happens when we're busy making plans.", we too are swayed and pushed from day to day by fate, destiny or Father Time.

MMFF 2009 It has been a long standing tradition in my family to watch MMFF movies on Christmas day. I think it started when we were staying in Meycauayan and SM North Edsa was just an FX away. I think it was something I looked forward to even if my mind goes catatonic for atleast 2 hours. A winning formula for an MMFF blockbuster is to make it appeal to the whole family. Imagine the math, if

Imagine, the years of plotting, scheming with Korina and then, puff, fate weaved a different tapestry and Noynoy is the one in the spotlight. I am very apathetic with regards to politics but this time, my sense of

Mother Cory During the last days of her life, she was fondly admired as Kris Aquino's mother. Yes, Kris Aquino is a Filipino Pop icon but Tita Cory is a STAR. I was still young then and I don't have enough memories of her. I cannot remember the Tita Cory that led the nation to democracy. But what I can still recall is my mom always praising tita Cory for being a simple woman. "Para lang uniform

Thoughts of you... It's hard to be separated from your other half. It dawned on me on an 18 hour non-stop flight. I wished she was with me, holding me, and lulling me to sleep.

With the recession being felt worldwide, there's a palpable stress in the air. But without stress, difficulties and all this brouhaha, no change will come. Without change, we might as well be dead.

Christmas came early... Little things make me heart a flutter these days... - text messages :) - being a witness to a friend saying Yes to her suitor via Coffee Frappe with choco swirl that spelled -- Y- E - S!. I told her.. "Ba't nde na lang OO, pinahirapan mo pa barista :) - little bibe :) - smell of curry, coffee and tobacco... - Laughter of people around me

Aso kaya si Pong Pagong? While I was looking at Botbot (my dog stuff toy given by Tala), I realized that I named him Botbot because he reminded me of Pong Pagong from batibot. I thought Pong Pagong was a dog. I have this hypothesis that maybe Pong Pagong is Botbot the dog inside a turtle costume? I think I am losing it... :) AMEN!

Priorities As my best friend and I were talking, he was asking me, "how does it feel to be thirty". The gay is just a few months younger than I am and he feels that I am ancient! I told him that I feel great because I aged backwards :) I feel that I am just 18 right now. You should have seen me at 18 man, I looked like someone with all the weight of the world at her shoulders. I took life very

Kirsten - Twilight's Saving Grace Who could have thought that this girl was Jodie Foster's daughter in Panic Room.... so boyish, so endearing... hayyy... I am smitten.. :) Edward had no chance! But as my friend commented, they could hire a better makeup artist next time (espasol king si Edward) and they need a new Edward for New Moon.... Bella, bite me :) (Alice, you're my number 2 girl :))AMEN!

Prop 8 - Misunderstanding of words? The day that Prop 8 was passed (together with Obama becoming the first black president) was described by a writer like the opening paragraph from Charles Dicken's A Tale of Two Cities.."It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." True, Americans went past race (slight blame on the lingering recession) but they still have a very rigid hold on their

Baka ma-Madagascar ka? :) Newsflash: A recent incident made me coin the work "Madagascar" to mean, Magoyo or Maloko - to be deceived. It's a long story but tonight I realized that I was such a fool.

My falling star ... One unforgettable day from the week that was: I was doing my usual work when I felt that I needed some nicotine in my system (translation: I wanted to be with my star :)). I went over and ask her if we could go down to the lobby for a quick yosi break. She obliged and while we were walking, she said these words that turned my world upside down. "I am resigning..." I

Hooters - No gay guys here! When I heard that there was a Hooters bar at the Mall of Asia, I immediately asked Nike, Pochie and Rorie to go eat there! I loveeee their 911 chicken and of course the chicks :) I had no expectations with regards to the women because I saw an article that had a picture of the Manila Hooters girls and I was not impressed (choosy pa me!). Upon entering, I was

Lez in Drag... When it was confirmed that I was going to be a reader on Mark and Consi's wedding (yep, I recited the Love is, love is verse), I already asked permission from the bride (Mark) if I could wear a suit. Waaahh, Mark was adamant that I should weara dress! I don't know why but he wanted everyone to dress his/her biological gender. The guys that read the first reading and responsorial

My star... I saw her again and the usual reaction - she took my breath away and my knees went weak. She is more beautiful than I remembered and I am at my wit's end on how I can make her cross over.. hahaha.. But again as my friends say, "She is who she is, you can't change that.." I can't hope for something that might break my heart in the end. But there's still this fighting urge inside of me

With the falling of the leaves I bid Adieu(photos courtesy of Momon and Mommy Alyza) As I drove along I-35WN, I could see Downtown Minneapolis from afar. The city is beautiful. It's not New York nor Chicago but it is a charming city that has a special place in my heart. Maybe because it holds so many memories for me. This is the place that I called home for six months this year and 8 months the

News from Gaylandia...A coming out party on my birthday weekend... This week, Clay Aiken (the famous eskaparate queen) admitted that he is... hold hands please.. gasssp.. gay. Ok, ok, this has been used several times and I know many writers came up with more drama and brouhaha in announcing this. So, can we have a big COMING OUT party and invite everyone who we think is still in the closet or in

Turning 30.. I will be turning 30 in a couple of days... and one thing that I think I lost this past year is trust ... trust in people. From now on, people need to earn my trust... I will not freely give it. And... I will not take a person's statement at face value. People have many hidden agendas and I have to dissect what they really want. I am now more jaded.. but careful. And, I think I

Aydul I watched this video and I realized that maybe Ellen and I have the same taste in women... look at the boney structure of Portia hihihi. I am happy that the public seem to accept Ellen and what she represents. The reason is I think she doesn't make a big fuss about being gay. She seems to radiate that it's normal. This is a far cry when we were growing up and my mom will buy me skirts,

Eraserheads --- the beatles of Pinoy Gen X Yesterday evening, while I was inside Alberto's car (with Baby Biancs (soon to have her own baby)), we were listening to the Eraserheads CD and we were chatting about how we were pissed that we missed the reunion concert. In the midst of our nostalgic storytelling, Biancs was laughing when we realized that Alberto and I were in college while she was

Things I will miss about Minneapolis - pangalawang hirit I wanted to blog about Mamma Mia but right now what is foremost on my mind is how lucky I am to be here in Minneapolis in the midst of good friends, colleagues and the perfect Minneapolis weather. I really enjoyed my stay here in Minneapolis the second time. I came here to test someone and sadly, she failed, or I failed. In retrospect, I

Obama Rocks! As I was reading Rorie's pile of Time magazines, I realized that the world is changing at a faster velocity and here I am wallowing in self pity. Ahhh... time for drastic change... I have to get into the groove again. There's more to life than my EMOing. Call it plain laziness, but I have been in intellectual stupor for the past few months... blame it on post-adolescense syndrome (

Transference is the key... I have been a proponent of transference for the longest time. If you want to move on, forget something or just plain sour graping, transfer your attention to something or someone else. This is the most effective way for me to get over someone so here I go again... a toast to the new Object of my Affection... :) Librans are so funny :) AMEN!

Updates from MoiOh God, my blog is a mess. It's full of you-tube videos because I believe that the only way I could express how I felt was through mushy, crappy, EMO love songs (peace Xtian my bro). Congee gave me a week to recover and she was right. I am ok, finally. Although, I feel that there's something on my throat when I chance upon a love song on the radio but I have Xtian to tease me, so
