Saturday night, it's time to party! Part two for the April Babes' birthday celebration. The setting is at ShBoom Nightclub in San Ramon. Party-goers Anna, Grace, Kathy, Margaret, and Jenny got into the club by 10:15pm. I am ready to go in with my ID and all but Mina forgot her ID at home so we started to walk towards the car to go back home to retrieve her card. Then came to the scene

I've always thought, turning 30 is a big milestone. I actually dreaded turning 30. Dreading it, not because I'm getting older but because of my NBSB status. Just like the movie Never Been Kissed but at least the heroine there is still in her twenties. I would often kid that I would miss writing the 2 in the two digit number that is my age, now I have to use 3! It is silly but hey, that's is how

I too, am amazed on how well my affliction with computers turned out. I can confidently say I am a computer literate. I won't dare call myself an expert, we'll reserve that to the IT people that studied and made a living out of working with computers.I can still remember, when I was in elementary, our small school had purchased a PC for the students' use. But somehow, I already gone to 1st

I've always dreamed that someday I could be big enough a person to contribute something to change the world. I'm not a millionaire, a politician, a princess or a celebrity. How could little ol' me make an impact or even a small dent in the armor of injustices in this world?Enter, Children International. They gave me the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of two children that needed my

Why I rented a car for a week you ask? It is a long story. Well, the California DMV has this strict rule that all vehicles operated and registered need to have an insurance policy. Once you buy a policy for your car, your insurance company sends an electronic report to DMV stating that you and your car have valid vehicle liability insurance. They even created a branch in their office to monitor

I've always wanted to go to the Exploratorium in San Francisco. I didn't actually go inside, just beside the pond was enough of a dream come true for me. I always see this spot in the movies that I watch. Be it a Filipino movie or a Hollywood production as long as it is filmed in San Francisco, this spot manages to be in it.This little outing was on a Monday in the month of July 2007. Kathy and

Someplace else in the US, I would have had a homesickness breakdown!!!! Don't take me wrong, I miss my family back home terribly but being in California had made it easier somehow. How could I safely say that? Well, every turn of my head I see a "Kababayan!" There are tons of Filipino stores and restaurants here. I can cook filipino dishes because there are home grown ingredients that you could

Flower Girl, originally uploaded by LuiGirl.I read romantic novels. It can be contemporary, suspense, comedy, historical or whatever as long as there is a love story involved, I read.

The apartment where I stayed happened to be just a few blocks from the Capitol. Just walking distance to the post office, the library, bus station, Amtrak station, Westfield Shopping Mall and the Cathedral. In Downtown in case you got lost

After 11 hours of continous flight, care of PAL, I stepped on US soil last April 27, 2006. It was a very loooong trip! my feet hurt then. Today, almost 5 days of being an immigrant, I found myself, siting in front of the computer of my cousin's home in Daly City, California. He hasn't seen me since I was a wee baby and yet he had welcomed me to his home with open arms.My colleagues and I, (there

It's been awhile. I know. I've been busy with... life, I guess. Life is a 24/7 job you know!?! Anyway, I would just like to say that I miss blogging but... I have to prioritize. I'm not saying that I'm entirely giving up on this. It's just that it may take awhile before I could post a great piece. Well I'm not saying that all the pieces here are great... well you catch my drift? (humble... humble

A candid photo shot or all photos in general convey a story that each viewer's perception may be different from another. A picture can say a thousand words, or so a song goes. I believe that is true. A photograph is taken to still life. But still, its

As usual I had spent my day off at the mall. I just went there for a few arcade games and some window shopping. As the usual course of my day at the mall progressed, I had found myself at the record bar of the main department store. Usually I check out VCDs to look out for good buys to add to my VCD collection, but my feet brought me to the music section. Lately, I've bee enjoying the music

To those who are unfamiliar to NBSB, it's a slang for "No Boyfriend Since Birth." A lot of women in a backwards society maybe suffering from this due to restrictions of culture of "the man makes the first move." Here in the Philippines, a novel was even written with it as its plot. Why, you may ask, this NBSB phenomenon may happen to a girl/woman. One may think that the girl maybe painfully ugly

We had our monthly unit meeting today. Often enough this event is accompanied by a celebration of some sort. This month, we're celebrating the birthdays of Ruby, Kathy and Faith.

It's not mine but of a friend. I attended a wedding reception last January 8. A celebration of the union of two beautiful people that I had the chance to know in this lifetime. Mik and Gani have been through a lot of challenges and sacrifices in their relationship. I only had a short glimpse of their romance for I have known them only for only a few short years.
