A to Z Reflections
Some time last March, I accidentally found out about the A-Z challenge, which challenged bloggers to post the letter of the alphabet every day during the month of April, with Sundays off for good behavior. When I saw that, I thought: As my favorite Barney Stinson of HIMYM would say Now I have been blogging […]
Young Yesterday
My mom recently uploaded pictures of her when she was young, BD – Before Dee. And what perfect timing, as I had no ideas for my Y! Thanks Mommy! The thing is, it’s a bit strange to think of your parents as being young once. I mean yes of course you knew they were, but […]
XXX
I know that my title isn’t technically an alliteration but do you know how difficult it is to find X words? I thought of writing about Xanthic X-men. Xanthic means yellowish, so I was going to write about wondering why the movie Wolverine doesn’t wear the comic book yellow costume, but even though I love […]

Queen of Quotable Quotes
Back in the Philippines, forwarded text messages were (or still are?) a thing. They’re like forwarded emails but shorter, so they’re usually jokes or “quotes,” like this one: I was finally getting over you I had crushes other than you I walked around with my head high, thinking I wouldn’t fall But then you smiled […]
Peer Pressure
“I’m going home next month,” a friend of mine announced some time ago. “Ugh.” Well that wasn’t the typical reaction of an OFW (Overseas Filipino Worker) about going home, so we asked her why she didn’t seem happy about it. “I’m dreading it,” she explained, her unhappiness etched on her face, “because it will be […]
Overwhelming Obsession
I think I may have a problem. I tend to get obsessed. About what? About anything, really. Let me list a bunch of random stuff I have gotten obsessed with over the years.
