Good SUNDAY morning! 

To make: 

1) Pop a nespresso capsule and slowly wait for the white tiny dot froth to form at the cup's center

2) Take a breakfast knife and swirl the froth outward

3) Play with it and enjoy drawing dynamite artwork using froth. Don't be afraid. 

4) Destroy design and indulge in a glorious morning cup o'joe. 

The day I became a Makati girl and lost my Southern privileges

January 23, 2012 - the first time I entered Makati and became an official Makati chic! Oh wait, I'm married. The day was gloomy and my emotions were in a flurry - melancholic happiness. I'd lie if I told you that I don't enjoy living in Makati now, and that I miss the heavy toll fees and the fantabulous traffic that helps you recollect your day and all the things you could be doing instead of staring at a tinted car window covered in bus belch. 


They say that to move in, you need:


1) An image of Mother Mary 
2) Holy Water
3) Rice - uncooked
4) Coins 
5) Candle
6) Round fruits 


Well, we did all this and we prayed and threw coins and entered our apartment with a lighted candle. Sweet gesture to our new home and we prayed that this home would treat us right. 


Despite all the difficulties, living in our own place helped me cope with married life a lot. We worry about the same things and we work on saving enough to pay all our monthly dues. The weight of life is becoming easier to bear. 


I know in my heart, this home will make a lot of memories. I know this home has the power to change my life. It already has. 


Makati suits me, I guess. 

Silence - the simplest way to respond nowadays

"It was a waste of my time to even type the letters and make them into words to respond to his stupidity", I exclaimed. I told my boss a year ago that I will never reply to something so foolish and waste another second of my seemingly simple life. 


I never thought I could say this but I am back working with the one person I swore never to work with again. I think his presence brought out the best in me. I bathe in his stupidity and I pat myself dry after every exposure knowing I am as shiny and squeaky clean. 


Let's talk about the post I made. I saw it on pinterest and I immediately shared it. Call it bad luck to post something negative, but I tell you, reigniting a really confused blog is not easy. Staying out of the office as much as possible is not easy. Not having the same great team I used to have is not easy. Most of all, living a peaceful life with my dear sweet husband and not having enough gossip in my life and controversy is not easy. 


I am mad about writing tonight. I wonder how long this will last. 


Let's begin! .. again.
