A prayer is answered, a dream is fulfilled.

Back from my dream travel for almost a week, I wouldn’t want to miss this chance to glorify God for causing it to happen. A prayer is answered, a dream is fulfilled. My is full. Europe is my dream destination. I had it in my heart in my late teens. Can’t remember how and why,…

Europe…we’ll see you soon!

If you are a loved one or a very dear friend of mine, you sure know that Europe is a big dream of mine. I actually have 3 big dreams, only God and me know what these 3 dreams are. One of these big dreams is to live, work and retire in Europe with my…

My kind of volunteer work

In January 2016, ADB has added a leave day to our benefits, we call it “volunteer day” where a staff can do outreach work on a weekday and file it as an official leave. We can do it individually or as a group with friends or as a department. In October 2016, the Staff Community Fund…

My ♥ is full..

..and so is my tummy 🙂 Today, one of my greatest dreams got fulfilled, one of the things in my bucket list got ticked – that is to learn how to bake. 🙂 I grew up in a very simple family. My mom cooks but she never bakes, so I had nil idea how to…

Reading is ♥

I love to travel, in every travel, one of my “must bring” is a book. I don’t always get the chance to read while on travel but in my heart I want to have that kind of vacation where I don’t have to do anything but just read leisurely, maybe under a coconut tree, with…

New additions to my collection

I only collect Starbucks cards. As much as I want to collect bags and shoes, I just couldn’t afford it. ;P It started a few years back, my Starbucks card collection is divided into two sets, the ones that I personally buy from my travels and from the Philippines when I like the design, and…

When you find the perfect pair, but…

not the perfect size… As you may probably know, my dream travel is yet to be fulfilled very soon!! So one of the things that I need to invest on is a good, comfy pair of shoes, well probably not one but 3 pairs. ;p My friend Gillian and I were killing time before we…

Today – 15 January 2017

Today is another milestone for me, thank & praise God for it! I attended for the first time a Christian service. For more than a year, I’ve been praying for God’s leading. Something inside of me has changed. I wanted to know God more and more, I wanted to know Him in a more personal…

I’m back!!!

So sorry for being MIA for a loooong time… Got so busy with all the Christmas festivities, barely had time to even draft some blog posts and updates here. I hope I can blog more often this year. I have lots to share but have limited time. This year, I also want to read lots…
