I know I’ve got so many things I need to get done but amazingly, I don’t want to do anything now, except to write this post, of course. Have you ever experienced feeling as if time stopped? Like, you need to run, do chores but don’t have the strength to get up and take the [...]

Wella? Garnier? Loreal?
What has happened to the world? I can’t believe my hair is drinking hair dye every six weeks now. All that chemical jazz…doesn’t sound so healthy. I’m just in my early 30’s and having a full head of gray hair if I go beyond like 8 weeks without dyeing!
I hate the procedure, the time consumed, [...]

Who knew 5 years olds are very good caretakers?
While I never forget to update and schedule posts in my other blog, I seriously semi-abandoned this one. I had been so busy with work and with my other blog that I have put this blog aside.
On with the updates. We had a three day holiday that started last Sunday until yesterday. I loved staying [...]

then suddenly we have four kids
Today starts Pristine’s long vacation and she will only be back to school on the 14th. Today is National Day in the UAE and next week, there will be an Islamic holiday so schools thought it would be a good break for teachers and issued a long vacation announcement.
My mother had been taking care of [...]

counting minutes to lunch
It’s 5 minutes to 1 pm, make that five minutes before lunch break. For the first time in a long time, I am strongly anticipating lunch. I am going to grab my lunch box with eagerness and vitality.
I am hungry.
I did not have any snacks today, unlike the other days when I have a biscuit [...]

count down to 6 pm
It’s the first day of my work week and I am in pain. I am also busy with lots of paper work I need to tackle while shoving the idea of pouring kerosene and throwing a lighted match stick on the heap to solve my problem.
Moving on…I bought Ritter Chocolate Marzipan. I mean, duh, there’s [...]

I’m in exile but I like it
Pristine and I are in my parent’s house in the Philippines and enjoying ourselves, doing uhmm, nothing. Right, nothing. I am basically a homebody and every time I’m back for vacation (which happens at least once a year on the average) all I do is rest, meet a few friends but mostly, just rest at [...]

We’re leaving tonight
We are finally leaving for our summer vacation tonight. The day I had been dreaming about for the past 12 months is finally here. Everything is packed - I am packing light, so light it seems that I’ll just go over the back fence to grandma’s house! Since M won’t be travelling with us. I [...]

Saturdays should be like this
Aah, Saturday morning, past 8 am and I am still in my sleep wear? When was the last time I was like this? Maybe not in years!
My leave officially started today and for the next 45 days, I will wake up without thinking about work six days a week. Woo hoo! Normally I work from [...]
