Magandang Umaga!

Morning becomes even more sunny, upbeat and optimistic when you have

sinangag, tuyo or danggit, itlog na pula, kamatis, mangga at mainit na kape sa hapag, 

a classic Pinoy breakfast ensemble.

yum!

But when on the go, this humble salted bread paired

with hot choco can make a great morning jumpstart!

While I'm Waiting (John Waller)

You Are Here...

yes, there is so much to look forward to,
but there is only ONE thing to always look back at
especially in times of sleepless nights, skipping meal time (but overeating),
ingress and egress.
at the end of the day, it's always a privilege to serve, knowing that
the cause is something bigger than yourself.

You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might that His arrows 
may go swift and far.
-Kahlil Gibran

I am so being fixed.

Sweet Sabado!

going to the grocery, making breakfast on weekends, brewing tea for my coteachers

and making them laugh are just some of the super many things that make my heart smile.

the simplest things. the real ones.

today is saturday. minimal errands to do :)

then i met with some friends and watched BM show.

im not a super fan of classical ballet or dancing in general

maybe because i really can't dance properly. i want to learn but i just simply can't.

i tried Zumba last year and it was a funny not fun experience.

i think i need more time and practice to learn things that require great kinesthetic skill.

but i appreciate dancing, contemporary or classical.

one reason would be because of the music that syncs with it.

hahaha! :)

after BM, Zyre and i found this cutesy coffee corner
along Donada St.

menu is not so pricey yet yummy.
they also have cakes.
:)

the concept of the store's interior is minimalist.
two floors, not so big but well lit and cozy.
wall on the stairway is painted white
and decorated with super cute doodles on Sintra
(sorry, i didnt get a snapshot of it).
this wall of framed photos faces the coffee/tea bar,
cake chiller and cashier.

i miss my fairy and gabbie.

rain, rain...

graduate school.

readmission.

how did that happen?

i never saw it coming.

better get used to surprises.

hay...
