August 8, 2016 Tonight marks the first month that you're gone dad. ...
I don't mind being single. I don't mind not having a commitment. I don't mind not having a wedding ring to meddle my finger with. But sometimes, I just want someone to hold my pieces tight when i'm about to fall apart, someone to hold my hands gently when i'm scared, someone to share my fears and wildest dreams with. I don't mind...
It is not being on my own that is so scary, having someone is a good thing but the realization that someone you thought was yours wasn’t and you are actually on your own. After all, the process is something I am afraid to feel and the emotions that comes along with it. I am not afraid of being myself, it’s the thought...
There are still women currently in their mid-20s who are afraid of commitment. They are still at a stage where they just want to grab opportunities for introspective and adventurous experiences of singledom. They do have a backpack of alibis or reasons why they still stay single but bottom line, they feel they are not ready yet and worse, afraid of being “tied...
1. Real love makes us feel vulnerable. A new relationship is uncharted territory, and most of us have natural fears of the unknown. Letting ourselves fall in love means taking a real risk. We are placing a great amount of trust in another person, allowing them to affect us, which makes us feel exposed and vulnerable. Our core defenses are challenged. Any habits...
Banaue Rice Terraces — an iconic and ancient landscape of the Philippines that is said to be the greatest engineering masterpiece of the indigenous people in Ifugao. Having been raised in the mountains of the Cordillera, I grew up knowing why I should be proud of being an Ifugao is our man-made terraces built thousand years ago by our ancestors and stood still to this moment and...
Situated at the heart of the Cordillera Mountains and a renown UNESCO World Heritage Site, you may want to visit Batad, a small village in Banaue, Ifugao and perhaps where once can see the best views of the centuries-old rice terraces, aside of course the view seen in Banaue proper itself. At the highest peak overlooking the terraces of Batad ...
A Batad adventure wont be complete if you wouldn't visit Tappiya Falls, a 32-feet water falls hidden at the foot of the mountain. Though it is quite a difficult trail but once you get there, it will be a rewarding experience. If going down is hard, going back is harder. :) The majestic view of Tappiya falls from above. ...
A peek to our roots. Went to Batad through Saddle point then exiting through Bangaan trail. Hiking for a few hours passing through hills, terraces and falls that took us about 4-5 hours. I enjoyed most of it of course except the tiring part of the hike. ...
A festival celebrated every year to showcase Ifugao culture and traditions. ...

We should have a time alone once in a while. Got to cuddle our pillow or favorite stuff toy. Look at the ceiling, doesn't matter how long, just stare. Think of the past days, of what have you done and what have not. Smile, you thought of something sweet. Frown, of something regretful. Close your eyes, say your prayers. Have a peaceful sleep, you've been good, nothing to think too...
Lumipad ka, sinama mo ako, medyo mataas pero okay lang. Ninamnam ko ang sarap ng hangin kaya napapikit ako. Ngunit sa pagdilat ko, wala ka na. Nghintay ako, umasa. Pero iniwan mo na pala ako sa ere. Pumikit na lang ako ulit at pinagpatuloy ang paglipad na hindi ka na kasama. Nagpatangay sa hangin saan man ako nito dalhin. ...

My one basic rule when it comes to relationships: When in doubt, discard. Keep your heart sterile from the pain or heartbreak it may cause you if you still go on even with the doubt. ...
Went for a hike with my Red Cross friends to Mt. Santo Tomas and we passed by Mt. Cabuyao. ...
Sagada had always been one of the top places I wanted to visit. Luckily this December, I had checked it on my list as DONE. ...
You have made me strong in the past but not strong enough to handle it with you. I don't know what draws me close to you, what makes me miss you even after months of not hearing anything from you. ...
