Have you ever had that feeling of being lost in your own thoughts? Thoughts about the past? Thoughts about how you ended up where you are right now? Have you ever thought that you could have been somewhere better?  You could have been a completely different person than you are now? So many comparisons right? So many thoughts. So many people to even compare to your life right now. I've had those thoughts too.  Once in a while i get confused with my thoughts.  What I really wanna do, even what I really wanna think about. As I move forward in my life, there are times that i still look back and think about my favorite moments.  My triumphs, my failures, all that happened in between. Randomly, earlier, i was browsing through youtube and saw old videos of Disney's Lizzie Mguire.  Yes, the legendary 13 year old that changed every other girl's awkward teenage years.  So many memories came into play. I suddenly remembered how campus crushes would walk the...

Came across Denice Lao's music while eating breakfast at McDonalds.  See? I could't forget her music.  What i heard was a raw rendition of her single Just Got Home.  It felt like it pursed right through my heart.  "Too early for the moment, timing's never right". Words I couldn't even seem to utter when confused. Luckily, before this smart chinita launched her album, I had the opportunity to tag along in one of her work trips and she let me in on her experience.  She shared her experiences, her difficult and trying times and how she even excelled in something she didn't think she was even good at.  I found her to be inspiring.  She's not available in SPOTIFY! <3 To the girl who was an inspiration to the youth, keep it up <3

Being a member of a JCI chapter that loves to protect life below water was what attracted me to joining JCI Cebu Sinulog chapter in Cebu.  I have been an advocate of the MDG since I started volunteering for the cause and now I found a JCI chapter that has the same values and visions as I do. In 2003, JCI Cebu Sinulog had this hobby of doing SCUBASURERO with long time and seasoned divers.  This was initially to answer the call of debris below water from highly commercialized areas in Cebu, the island of Mactan particularly in Lapu Lapu City. Fast forward to 2019, as a member of 7 years and counting, the chapter members and I thought that it is time to broaden the scope of Scubasurero for this summer and make this into a campaign that is relevant to global warming.  This time, it is getting the businesses around the island involved and increasing the volunteer count that will not limit to only scuba divers.  This year, we thought to encourage young active citizens...

Iconic American shoe brand Keds is known for collaborating with female taste makers in the art and fashion industry. With numerous collabs that swept ladies off their feet, it is releasing another stunner this summer with the Keds x Dusen Dusen line. With a background as interesting as her signature bold patterns, Brooklyn-based designer Ellen van Dusen brings a unique perspective to design: neuroscience. Van Dusen bridged her love for design and psychology, studying how the brain reacts to different aesthetics. Her striking patterns are created to stimulate the brain’s reaction to movement, color, and contrast using angular shapes, vivid hues, and upbeat, feel-good prints. “Keds follows a similar model to the way I like to work at Dusen Dusen—using a classic shape as a canvas to experiment with color, pattern and shape. It was really fun to translate my work to a shoe” says Van Dusen. Women&#39;s Keds X Dusen Dusen Champion Spill in Cream and Green (P3...

Thinking about Italian Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings. Oh for the love of Chicken wings.   The Chicken wings craze have gone over the top and can’t believe that chicken wings stores are popping up in CDO and what I love about chicken wings is that it just brings out the best in every family and barkada.   Yes, that’s right!   I went to check out the places in CDO with the best chicken wings and I came across a quaint pop up kiosk at the 3 rd level of Centrio Mall called Wing it! Flavored Wings!   Cool name huh?   They even have this very catchy jingle over the radio. Going straight to the point on my chicken wings craze, I went for the P199 -12pcs since it was the most obvious choice and wanted to try their 3 unique flavors.   Well, I loved every bit of it!   They had the Italian Garlic Parmesa, Texas Hickory BBQ, NYC Wild Buffalo.   Their staple flavors are the perfect fit for their staple aesthetic! I wish I could repl...
