- Bad Run
This morning’s run with the hubby in Bonifacio Global City was a BAD one on so many counts: 1) Attack of the Mountain Bikers. Where did they all come from? There were over 50 mountain bikers circling the BHS loop when we arrived. There were double the usual number of runners, but we were still [...]
- 2009 Goals
“Consider goals as launching pads to something far greater.” – Cyndi Laurin Ever since I came across those aforementioned words in 2007, I stopped making resolutions and marked each New Year with GOALS instead. Here goes… ONE-DAY GOAL: To start eating properly tomorrow—as in the way normal human beings do without gorging on ridiculous amounts [...]
- Subic Seven
Just got back from Subic with the hubby, kids, and my side of the family. We spent three full days of lounging around at the beach, eating to our stomach’s delight, and enjoying each other’s company. { 7 SIBLINGS } With my Dad’s recent passing, we thought that the first Christmas without Dad [...]
- ‘Tis The Day Before Christmas
It’s the day before Christmas and I just love how slow and sleepy everything is until family and friends gather together for Christmas eve dinner and mass tonight. This morning was quite the opposite for me though. It was filled with energy and laughter and food and chatter. At 6:30 a.m., Annie, JunC and [...]

- My Christmas Wish List
Where is it: My Christmas Wish List? I’ve been so busy with work, the kids, dinners, workouts and shopping that I’ve realized just now that I haven’t sat down to think about what I want for Christmas, which is only a week away! (Gasp!) So, here I go, typing as I think about everything I [...]
- Thank God It’s Monday!
I’m so relieved the weekend is over. To make a long, dreary, dreadful weekend story short, I learned—during what should have been an easy 5k run at Nike Run Clinic last Friday—that my knee still needs more time to recover. (Note that I do not use the word “injury” as I’m fairly optimistic that [...]
- Singapore, Here I Come!
It’s been a crazy week. I felt like I was doing everything at 5k race pace hoping to accomplish as many things as possible before leaving for Singapore tonight. That should explain why I barely had the time to tell you how I excited I am about this trip, which brings with it a lot [...]
- Ugly Feet
I have never had uglier feet than I do now. I’ve had a black toenail on my right foot for what feels like f-o-r-e-v-e-r. If that wasn’t bad enough, after New Balance last Sunday, my left pinkie toe was practically covered by one giant bloody blister that scared the living hell out of me [...]
