For the last year, I have been drawing non-stop because I wanted to experience (again) the thrill of creating images that we normally see every day. But, with what’s happening in my day work, I can’t seem to find the time to draw. I guess this is just a way for me to memoralise these images and to remind myself of the world that’s out there. Also, since I have recently dabbled into animation,

Hello. So many months have passed and I have not yet taken bold steps into going back to school. So, for those of you who do not know me yet, my constant goal since…2012-ish is to study. We always learn from our work every day. We get to experience situations that are new, difficult, and challenging, yes but make us question our capabilities. Most often than not, these situations teach us. I

I am reminded to day on the death of Grant Imahara as I was listening to Joji (Your Man). I don't know why but they look similar hence, the flashback. I have a huuuge crush on Grant and I guess his death came as a surprised to everyone. One day you are healthy, living your best and then suddenly you die. He was a freaking scientist. He contributed soooo much and yet he died unceremoniously.  And

Four years ago today, I celebrated my birthday with Ate Elaine and Jomel. We were still in Oz and they surprised me with this. Time really is approaching fast and I now only reminisce in fragments. Cheers for more years to come!Thank you guys. Will never forget this.  ♥️

My friends and I used to go out to places we have never visited for the sole purpose of trying their food out. We call our group D' Food Trippers Club (DFTC). In the group with me are Kris, Annabelle, Rey Phillip, and Karen. Lately though, we have not been out because of COVID. There is so much to try here in the city and I'm happy because Poy is very much supportive of our once a month nigh out.

This was my letter for someone very special that I made two years ago. Sometimes, I make something for this person because well, first love never dies...When you left me, I'm all over the place. You left me with some man I can't even say "I love you."You were this amazing person who pushed me when I thought I couldn't. You believed in me more than I to myself. You gave me inspiration and showed

So lately, I've been craving food from this restaurant in our hometown that have since closed down. Don't really know where they are but what I love about their place is their bibimbap. For a very decent price, you get to enjoy this delicious bibimbap (also because Iya and I love to model in their rustic place). I remember when Ms. Lani (one of my colleagues in the office) offered me that her

Before we went home back in 2016, Wonder, Maureen and I had a chance to visit our friend David Longford at his hometown in Wollonggong. We were so excited because this is something that we were planning for the past months. I was scrolling through my phone and found these pictures. I miss going on trips. I guess I'll be posting my previous travels because until now, no vaccine is readily

Part of the activities I do to keep myself sane is cooking. Last week, I made pizza for the family and after the dinner when everything's gone, it is safe to say that they loved it! I have been battling myself if I really wanted to cook this because I was thinking, this would consume much of my time. And it did! One thing to make this easier though is to make your dough and/or toppings a day or

It has been years since my last entry here and sooo much has happened I do not know where to start. But, I hope you are still reading this with a joyful heart and in high spirits. The past months however have been a challenged to me professionally (more into that in the next blog, hopefully). I feel that I am being dragged in this pool of jadedness that people my age experience. It sucks not

I think most of us, especially Christians, are excited to celebrate Christmas this year. People all over the world have experienced some tragedy in their lives for the past months and Christmas should bring happiness and people together. I was kind of looking for that Christmas vibe throughout this December (despite the workloads), hoping to celebrate it with some enthusiasm. But this last

Months after experiencing the magic of the Land Down Under and I'm back to where I am. I can't even say I'm back because everything has changed. Everything. I did change...my work, my friends, the people I hang out with, even the usual things I do has changed. It was scary at first, having no one at work that you can talk to about it. And then I got used to things. The process of fitting in

Okay, I don't really like to call it as such because for the past years, we call it insurgencies but never terrorism. However, since the President has already declared it to be one, might as well use it here to avoid confusion. I was browsing my Twitter last two days ago when I saw this rather concerning tweet about my former classmate asking what the noise was about. Then I started seeing

As I've said in one of my previous post, we had a farewell party and it was a blast! I'd like to say that it was because they like what I cooked. They said that it's their favourite. Yeey! But there were lots of alcohol at that time so I can't really be sure. The morning of that day, I went to Nelson Bay and Port Stephens to join the Tour coordinated by the uni. First, we went to Murrook where

I feel like I needed to go somewhere just to break the monotony of always chilling at Nobby's Beach. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Nobby's Beach. But I feel like I needed to go somewhere different. Two things I hate about Merewether Beach are the double bus rides and a long walk after it. But we'll see. I want to go to Stockton first. Just have a picnic I guess. When I went to Nobby's a while back

Okay, I have a confession. I don't really like beaches and sunsets. That was before. Now, I feel like going to the beach everyday and watch as the sun sets would be one of the highlights in my stay here in Oz. I still don't swim in them but I enjoy watching how things, like the sun, rest at the end of the day. Here's some of the photos I took on several of my visits at Nobby's Beach: This is

Today, I cried because I read something. I just woke up and read this rather lengthy note. I decided not to respond because it'll take me HOURS to write what I feel and that would mean HOURS of crying as well. Every time I remember it, I cry. So I decided I am gonna spare my emotions this time. I only have, what, a few days left before I go home and I want it to be free from all that. Tomorrow,

Today, we went to Ourimbah campus of the University of Newcastle and had a quick tour. It was, I think, a 20 minute walk from the train station which is really convenient for students who are traveling everyday. To our surprise, we saw a miniature Holi festival on campus, hamsters balls and strapped trampolines. I'm guessing it is the culmination of the Cultural Week. The main campus has the

I've been a huge fan of the Paper App by FiftyThree since a year ago (I think; can't really remember when I downloaded it in my tablet). It's an app similar to Adobe Draw and other drawing tools. I was instantly hooked with it but the problem is, I never had a stylus. Because I got tired drawing with my fingers, Paper became a dormant app in my tablet. When I first came here (Oz), I wanted to

So I went to Nobby's Beach today for a walk and the sunset was spectacular. Then, this woman started talking to me about how she saw me from this place and how she thought I was mad at something (coz I'm always frowning that's why), how I walk like a sullen person, etc. So I said, "I just look and walk like that, but I was not mad or being sulky at all." But she won't believe me and started

Today, I decided to trash all the unnecessary stuff that I have in my room. But then I spent almost 3 hours of rehearsing how I should fit all my clothes in two bags. Then a thought came up to me. Since they are trying to cut the costs of travel expenses, they will be booking us on a budget air company. And if that happens, our 30kg baggage allowance will now be reduced to 20 which is a total

This week was our last week of classes for all three (3) courses and I had my picture taken (along with some of my classmates) with my favourite lecturer for this trimester Colin Lynch. I appreciate him a lot because even though we, as a class, don't give much input to the discussion, he's super patient and he sees the best in us. I've learned a lot about Employee Relations that I never thought

I became so lazy that I stopped writing. I'm actually disappointed with myself on that aspect because I promised that I will still write no matter how bad my grammar is or even if there's really no one who reads this. It's like having an outlet and I let myself down. :( For the past months though, Twitter has been my tool to express. It's easy that way and I think being away from home for a year
