My not-so-ordinary Thursday

The day actually started quite early and I even woke up before the alarm went off. When I sat up in bed, my arms had this tingling feeling and my tummy was indescribably loopy. (Don't ask me how that body part can get loopy.) And I got to my appointment on time... sort of. After an hour, I was able to get back home and rested for a couple of hours or so. Then I "prettified" myself again and escorted my second niece to her Recognition Day. It was quite fruitful... way more fruitful compared to my days of late.

I got to visit my alma mater, had a perfectly legitimate reason to dress up and wear makeup, took a lot of pictures, and spent some of my last rapidly vanishing pesos. It was quite an adventure.

This was yesterday. The sun was up in the morning. Clouds gathered and brought a slight drizzle in the afternoon. My cute nieces and I accompanied my father as he got some groceries after Cate received her official looking--but ultimately disposable--certificate. It was pretty low-key. But I had great fun. :D

Funny Day

This surprised me when I pressed "home" on my net browser.  Strange, but cute. ^_^ Grazie, Google! I guess? And no, I still don't celebrate it. Haha!

The Real Deal about Truth and Freedom

For the past few weeks, I have been fortunate enough to stick to the routine of reading a verse from the Bible every morning and reflecting on its message. It has been wonderfully enlightening, to say the least.  Last Wednesday, this was the verse that greeted me when I opened my Bible app...  If the son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.   ~ John 8:36  To say that I was stunned is an understatement... but then, I shouldn't have been. Ever since I can remember, whenever I'm struggling with some ethical or moral dilemma, I always get an epiphany of the answer. In my youthful pride, I thought "Wow, I'm brilliant." Not knowing it was not actually me but God who was guiding me to the answers. It took me a while to realize this and thankfully when I became an adult, I did. This time was one of them. You see, I was struggling. Four months and still counting, my father and I have been forced to endure each other's company for weeks on end. Outsid...

Knitted Fingerless Gloves

Just created my first ever knitting design -- cable-stitched fingerless gloves! Yay! Here's the short of it... I just resigned from my latest regular office job and am currently catching up on all the hobbies I've sorely missed when I was still frantic with ridiculously impossible quotas and tear-inducing deadlines. So, here I am... going back to my knitting, crocheting, reading, and telly-watching -- not to mention my blogging. Finished 5 books, caught up on my TV shows, and found all my crafting tools from my poorly organized box... just last month. Have also been able to get my lappie fixed and got most of my personal errands done... except for a couple or so. Not bad eh? But the thing I'm most proud of accomplishing lately is that I finally got to create my own knitting pattern design... something that actually required more than plain straight lines. Hehe. Et voila! Got the idea from a friend who was suffering from an over-enthusiastic air conditioning applia...
