About Me

I believe in change for the evolution of a soul. I believe in change for the love of life. I believe in change for adventure.Born in the Philippines, raised in Adelaide, South Australia. Went back and lived in the Philippines on my own in April, 2007 - October, 2007. Went back to Adelaide for a month, then moved to Dubai, end November, 2007. I guess going around with just a swag of clothes and my hair curler hasn't changed so much since I'd moved out of home in June, '06, except, the "swag" is now a trolley cabin bag, which is sometimes accompanied by a 30kg-capacity Samsonite; and instead of going back and forth from my parents' house to my boyfriend's house, to my house, I now anticipate going back and forth continents - Dubai-London, Dubai-Karachi, Dubai-New York, Dubai-Melbourne, etc., etc. I somehow managed to score the job of my mid-'07's dreams and am relentlessly living it out.I have an incredible family and incredible friends. They are the ones who've taught me the most important things I know now; I'm always reminded of true beauty, compassion, intelligence, wit, integrity and love when I'm around them. I love different cultures and languages. I love good food and music. I have somewhat of a controlled obsession with food. I love to cook and more importantly, I love to cater to those I love.I love practically living alone, with my housemate popping her head in every now and then to say "hi", or to sit there for hours chatting with me over pumpkin seeds until our lips are sore from the salt. I love solitary walks, and long beach/pool sessions with my friends, but I also love relaxing in bed, watching episodes of Sex in the City that I've seen a million times, with a hot chocolate coddled in my hands.Adoro la vida. I think life is simple, and that we should live it out the way we want to."If you love life, don't waste time for time is what life is made of." -Bruce Leestyle="visibility:visible

Because it’s better than pulling out my hair.

I've concluded that in order to keep my positivity (and my sanity), I must - must write notes on great crew that I've met. Because, the negative people out there are doing my head in. I cannot underst...

Making bank vs. Making babies.

I am officializing my not-so-newfound interest in domestication. Once upon a time, I went to highschool dreaming of an adult life which involved weekdays planning parties for the weekend, and the week...

Home is where the bacon is.

It's astonishing the way in which "home" (by which I mean, my home city) becomes more and more intriguing and amazing every time you visit when you don't live there anymore. Strangely enough, What par...
