We were seatmates back when we were in high school. I loved doodling back then. I even doodled on...

I’ve always dreamed I’d get a needle-thin and reliable [doesn’t skip] fountain pen. I finally had it...

This is the first time I’ve done something like this. According Tony Perez, it is a form of...

One of the things I learned is that Filipinos don’t like caricatures. Caricatures usually mean that...

Perhaps this will be the last time I will draw the senator. Perhaps. She has inspired me throughout...

Ok. I want this in my house! ...

Milkfish [bangus] simmered for more than 10 hours using a recipe by @simpolph -- I can't describe how delicious it is. Next time will try to use tamban. ...

I dreamt of you today. In that dream we were in a theater. It felt like we haven't seen each other for years. When I saw you, I ran to you and hugged you. It felt good. ...

I love quiet mornings. You wake up and your only problem would be - do I eat breakfast now or later? Do I want to read the whole day or watch a KDrama on Netflix? Do I want to get out of bed or go back to sleep? Yes, I am savoring the goodness in my life. When the silence isn't empty, just full of answers waiting to be uttered. ...

When silence no longer feels empty, that’s when I realized I stopped grieving and I’m healing quite well. Still grateful that I have such moments to enjoy. ...

Happy New Year!

I love the fact that Brian’s inner-child is still very much alive. Especially on his birthday. ...

I really love this view. One of my wishes is to live in a condo with a view of the cityscape. Who needs TV when you have this beauty before you? Of course that means not being able to open the windows. The city smog can be unbearable during rush hours. ...

Ho. Ho. Ho. ...

The sweetest thoughts can lighten a heavy heart. Thank you @pengsonmarisyll and family. I love you too. ...

Happy Holidays y'all! ...

Loved watching the dawn from my bedroom window. ...
