Me in yellow??? Who is she??? haha I usually shy away from yellow clothes because I find it too much— too bright, too noticeable, too loud. It seems impossible to act invisible while wearing it. But since

Welcoming my birth month with grace ... and these beautiful photos. A few weeks ago, I booked myself a studio funshoot with a legit photographer! It was initially kinda awkward for me because I was feeling

I just finished reading my first book for 2025, which was, The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. Now, let me share my thoughts on it while it's still fresh in my brain. I am rating it a 3 out of 5. Not because

Have you ever heard about a floating bookfair? I first learned about it when I was in College in my hometown. There's this ship called, Logos Hope, which sails around the world. And yes, it is a bookstore

I spent Easter Sunday with the bestie! We met up at SM Mall of Asia (MoA) to attend The Grand Easter Feast in the morning. It always feels great to attend The Feast sessions with her, especially because

This is such a Tita thing to say, but omygoosh! Time flies so faaaast. My first niece just turned 18! What a crazy reality. haha Age is not really a big deal with me. I am just amazed with how the years

Eversince I learned about self-shoot studios, I've always wanted to experience it with my parents and furbaby. I tried it before with my friend, and it was fun! So I thought they will enjoy, too! There's
