I have fallen in love
I Have Fallen In Love (a poem by the late Senator Benigno ‘Ninoy’ Aquino, written in honor of his wife, former President Corazon C. Aquino; Music by Jose Mari Chan)
I have fallen in love
with the same woman three times;
In a day spanning 19 years
of tearful joys..and joyful tears.
I loved her first when she was young,
enchanting […]

Quick visit to Baguio
We were in Baguio City yesterday to attend the wedding of a friend. The wedding ceremonies were held at the Baguio Cathedral and reception followed at the Baguio Country Club.
I have been looking forward to this wedding because I haven’t been to Baguio for quite sometime. I worried at first I might not be able […]
Politicians and their babble
by Louie Tacker
AS the elections in the Philippines has just wrapped up, politicians there may have already subsided with their talks, campaigns and all. Here in America though, politicians have started their babble already, though election is still over a year away.
I thought it won’t be for another year before we get bombarded with […]
It’s almost goodbye to summer…
Gem, Aypee and I went to visit my parents yesterday in our family home in Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan. As usual, Gem couldn’t take her eyes off my sister’s garden in which grow varieties of flowering and other ornamental plants.
Here are the shots she took using my Nokia N73 3.2megapixel phone cam. (Yes! I finally […]
Saying a little prayer
Marco took a photo of this wall in a friend’s house. What image can you figure here?
How do I pray?
Aside from a designated prayer/quiet time, I pray intermittently too, anytime, anywhere.
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to […]
Tiramisu for me on Mother’s Day
It’s been three days since Mothers’ Day, but I have yet to post these pictures of the Mothers’ Day cake that my children brought me. I knew they wanted me to post these pics, so they could have a share of the limelight again… LOL! Anyway, with or without gifts, I assured them they […]

I wanted to post this yesterday, Mothers’ Day, but Marco had the internet connection all to himself to do some work.
From out of nowhere, Momma Cat came to live with us. We didn’t know she was pregnant until one day, my daughter went up on the roof […]
Nothing’s gonna change my world
THERE ARE TIMES when I prefer not to talk, especially when I feel like revolting inside; or when I sense unrest around me; or when I”m extremely happy, sad or hurt, or faced with uncertainties; or when words are not just enough to express what I feel and think. And then I resort to music […]
On ugly photos and things she wants
While reviewing the photos she took with her phone cam, my daughter sighed deeply.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” I asked.
“I wish I had a nice digi cam so I can take better photos,” she replied.
I did not answer. What did she expect me to say, after digging deep into my pockets the day she enrolled […]
