Friday Night Movie Series

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

I guess this is my way of taking full note of a new routine. I know it’s not uncommon for anyone to go to the movies on a Friday night, it’s just that this time around it weighs more due to certain circumstances that surround it.
Welcome to one of the new series here at The [...]

Moving, Thinking, Writing

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Falling in a predicament wherein you would want that you’re armed with words to best encapsulate an experience. I’d often blame circumstances for not writing. It can be that I’m still on the move when the inspiration struck and when I got to sit in front of the computer, I’d already lost it. Or perhaps [...]

Finding Inspiration

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

Not necessarily having a bad day nor a matter of writer’s block, just finding yourself in a period of lull. You’re simply waiting for an idea to strike. Stuck in that point in time — waiting.
In the middle of finding something to jumpstart the thought-process needed to bring that pen to touch the paper and [...]

The Album Cover Tag

John & Brita Haycroft
Where Only One Grew Before
(Image used for the album cover: 51/365 200209 by carolinabena; cover layout, all mine)
This is actually a tag thing circulating in Facebook but I just had to bring it over and invite folks to come and join the fun. It does require a little tech skill, i.e. Photoshop, [...]

Oz Welcome and Celebrating 31 Years

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

The Oz Welcome
Pushing a trolley laden with a set of luggage amounting to 60kgs (or somewhere close) became less taxing when I saw a beautiful family holding up a home-made placard saying “Welcome Lola & Tita!” walking through the airport doors. Now, that’s what I call a warm and love-filled welcome! I’ve always wanted to [...]

New Moleskine Winner

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

G’day, mate! Yea, that’s me saying hallo from Oz. But before I go off telling you about the stuff that’s been happening down here, let me sort some business out of the way.
After over a week’s wait, with no word from the winner, I had no choice but do a re-draw for the Avalon.ph-sponsored Bloghopping [...]

Tuesdays with Moleskine

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

Well, for the winner of the Avalon.ph-sponsored Bloghopping Moleskine Giveaway winner, it can now be everyday!
I know it can be daunting to actually write down your dreams. It can feel too pressing to have this sort of wanting for something that’s not exactly within your reach. At least, not just yet. But seeing them on [...]

An Early Christmas Gift

Friday, December 5th, 2008

December is the month filled with celebrations. Of course, the most obvious reason would be Christmas but the month is filled with friends’ birthdays, “Simbang Gabi”, and such, too.
The month is also known for the unbelievably, horrendously, you’d-rather-shoot-yourself-than-drive-in-that-traffic heavy traffic. But this doesn’t really stop people from going out anyway. There are still things [...]

Dreams and Moleskines

Monday, December 1st, 2008

Starting the last month of 2008 — also my birthday month! — is the Bloghopping Moleskine Giveaway courtesy of the longest running shopping website in the country, Avalon.ph!

Avalon.ph is the very same place where I bought my new Moleskine notebooks plus the Jeffrey Eugenides book. This gives you an idea of what they’re all about. [...]

“Welcoming the new month is the [...]
