Waiting

The past year was grueling. I had to endure a series of disappointments, detours and delays. But happy to report that the wait is finally over. It was a looong season of waiting. Waiting for a job contract. Waiting for my work visa to get approved. Waiting for my Overseas Employment Certificate. Waiting for myContinueContinue reading “Waiting”

The Water From The Faucet

We all know that water is part of our everyday life. We use water to drink, clean, sanitize…actually in almost everything, and not just in our homes but we also use water in factories, vehicles, equipment, and many more…in every single day. In short, inasmuch as we need air to breathe, water is also veryContinueContinue reading “The Water From The Faucet”

To The Ones Who Stay

But this is not about love. It’s about my professional life. Today is my third year at work. Well, it’s technically a non-working day as it’s a Saturday, but allow me to celebrate it through a blogpost. Three long years and counting (with a work break). Big deal? Maybe not for some. By the way,ContinueContinue reading “To The Ones Who Stay”

2022’s Trial Month

Hello February, goodbye January! 31 days after we bid adieu to 2021, we are celebrating the new year again! Kung Hei Fat Choy, pahinging tikoy. Just kidding. Time really flies fast. But having another first day of the month to be celebrated as new year, is maybe, just maybe, the moon’s way of cooperating withContinueContinue reading “2022’s Trial Month”

The Year That Was 2021

It’s the new year and lot of people for sure have already posted essays and entries on social media and shared about how the past year went by. I usually skip the essay writing part in welcoming the new year, but with how 2021 started (which was on a really low note that even madeContinueContinue reading “The Year That Was 2021”

Blogging and Mental Health

I shared in my previous posts that years ago I took a break from blogging because I observed that my posts weren’t authentic. I felt like copying other bloggers’ style and I found it was not sustainable. But the urge was really strong. While on hiatus, the call to write (actually type 😅) and shareContinueContinue reading “Blogging and Mental Health”

Today

I want to celebrate today. Every 28th of the month is a special day of my romantic life. Well, I am not sure if I really need to mention it in the blog but I just did. But apart from that…these also happened: Salary arrived earlier than scheduled. Salary received was greater than usual. ThenContinueContinue reading “Today”

To be Honest

A life update. To be honest, there are still a lot of entries in the drafts waiting to be finished, but here I am penning a new one. I thought my next blog entry would be about financial tips or another book I finished to read or another Kdrama I binge watched. But I guessContinueContinue reading “To be Honest”

A Year Older

It’s been a month since Luzon (Philippines) is under ECQ and also today, I turn a year older. I celebrate at home. I spent the day working and also praying the workload would not be brutal (as I had been working extended hours these days) for me to be able to rest early and maybeContinueContinue reading “A Year Older”
