Seeing this video made me think of my answer to the question “What do you love about your body?” … … … … … Why is it so hard? If you asked me this question a year ago, I would have burst into tears. My self esteem was so low at that point that [...]
Yes, fuhrealz! Johnnie Walker is inviting the F1 legend Mika Hakkinen over here in the Philippines! Mika Hakkinen is Johnnie Walker’s responsible drinking ambassador.

I love my earth and I love the seas, the forest and of course I love animals. My heart cries when I hear animals being abused especially cats, dogs and bunnies. We have animal shelters too but they need help. I found a way to help these lovely animals and you too can help by [...]

The best way to gain self-confidence is to do what you are afraid to do. I don’t think I will be where I am now if I didn’t stop to look fear in the face. I used to have stage fright, but I really love dancing and performing and so I had to overcome it. [...]
Do you know how lucky we are to be living in the Philippines? I honestly can’t imagine myself growing up in some other place. It has been my home for many years and I quite enjoy the bountiful natural gifts we have in our country I am up for any adventure but I must [...]
Sometime in May, I got invited by Human Nature to have a hearty dinner with other beauty bloggers. For those of you who don’t know what Human Nature is, it’s a local brand that’s 100% made in the Philippines. By 100% I mean 100% labor and 100% materials are locally made! Human Nature is actually [...]
Dog food is everywhere! You can find it in grocery stores and the most basic of pet shops. Sadly, there are not a lot of bunny stores in Manila. Here are the pet shops that carry bunny food, well, the ones that I’ve been visiting so far. 1. Bio-Research They used to have a [...]
I remembered the time I donated my CPA review scholarship to someone who can’t afford it – a year after, he fulfilled his dream of becoming a CPA helping someone to fulfill a dream is priceless! A friend is celebrating his blog’s 5th year anniversary. You know him online as Batang Yagit. But he’s richer [...]
I must say, I am so reluctant to admit that at my 25 years of being here in the Philippines, I haven’t been to one of the most beautiful places in my home country – Palawan. I have heard the many good things people say about this place but sadly, some sad events happened too [...]
Today is a very wonderful day! A very touching incident just made my day and it reminded me of why I continue to share my experiences on this blog I get emails here and there from readers asking further questions about my blog posts on my travels, food blogs, fashion and beauty thing-a-majigs and many [...]
On my recent trip to Hong Kong, I noticed that they just don’t give the plastic bags that you put your purchases on for free. They usually charge you with HKD 0.50 I guess to promote a more eco-friendly shopping. Vince and I were buying our favorite drinks on 7/11 there and we were surprised [...]
Today is World AIDS day and I recognize the need for the Philippines to be informed about delicate topics that people are uneasy to talk about. This mysterious disease is REAL and so are the danger it poses to us, our friends and family. Please read through, be informed and share to everyone. It is [...]
It’s the time of the year when every journal junkie is in search for the best planner they could ever have for the new year. Choosing the right planner for you is crucial. This, by itself motivates you to write more and to look at your progress more often. It’s based on experience, if the [...]
I wish you never smoked. You never would have had lung cancer and you would still be here with me now. I never would have had weak lungs Since I was a kid, my lungs have always been my problem. I’m writing this letter now because I can’t sleep at 3am – coughing [...]
I just got back from my Boracay trip but I am sick T___T’ I cancelled my dubbing session today because my flu would make me sound funny T__T’ Therefore, I just stayed home… I needed to sleep supposedly, but I think I slept enough. There’s only one thing to do… bum around the house, get [...]
Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you that I have been planning to “Dance” again a year ago. Every time I think of my broken dream as a dancer, I often say to myself “Maybe I should Dance Again.” And, it ends there… I didn’t really commit to finding dance class or doing something about [...]
I am an advocate for the environment and every year I cover the Earth Hour. Last year, 2009, I was alone hanging out by myself at Bonifacio High Street. I blogged about it here and I was happy and amazed I also blogged about the Dark EDSA – it was very very VERY TOUCHING! [...]
I was supposed to go to this event, but sadly I was down with colds *sniff* *sniff* … Since I am not a millionaire and I don’t have much money to donate on my own, I really want to commit myself to join activities for a cause. That way, I can help in other great ways without having to shell out money. I am so glad though that Coke Halika raised P115,407.30!
This was the first Running event I have ever had. 5km is the longest run I’ve ever had so far. It was more tiring than I thought. After 1km, I swear I said I won’t make it… I don’t know but I sill continued to run. With every step I make, I hum a song in [...]
After the Nestle Fitnesse program, we headed to Cava Somerset for the project Headshot. One of the best things about being a blogger is that you can reach to people and influence them. And, if you know me, I’m a pro-environment person. So when we were asked to choose our advocacy, that will be shown [...]
The typhoon Ondoy has left us all devastated. Typhoon Peping avoided Manila city proper, but it hit the provinces big time! It brought deadly winds to our Northern provinces. Many lost shelter, clothing and have no means to buy food. All three are basic necessities for one person to live.
This is a quickie post. I’m promoting my friend’s event: Let’s Go Sago Surfing Clinic in La Union Why? Because I also want to promote sports to you alls! Don’t just sit on your laurels! Go out! hear the waves! stand on the waves! SURF! It’s the awesome-est event of the year organized by Jonel [...]
It definitely is time for a new “me”! I have been caught up with too much work and stress lately that I have forgotten how to take care of myself. This new powerful website could just be my only hope for a new direction.
I am just so amazed to know that she knows so much about her advocacy (i.e., waste segregation). Job well done miss Seifert! You have made us Negrenses proud! She’s oozing the right confidence, the perfect smile and the right brilliant and smart answers! I don’t really watch beauty pageants. My mom is such a [...]
