One Blissful Sunday at Treveia, Nuvali
Last Sunday was a great bonding experience for me and my beautiful family. Also, it was another great way to just escape and leave all the stress in the city and just RELAX.
Here are some of my takes:
Some fun shots with my cousins:
my little cousin poses for catalogues, i guess she’s a natural! haha

Things are looking up up up!
“The secret of happiness is to count your blessings (clinic points) while others are adding up their troubles.”
After the most stressful start of the year anyone could ever imagine (due to the stress of reaching quota on my clinic points), I “think” am positive that I’ll be able to reach if not exceed my goal this sem. I just finished my last restorative...

It's the LOVE month! ♥
Since we never got to spend valentine’s day as a couple last year (as i was in Bohol with my family), I really wanted this one to be special.. BUT… thanks to my oh-so-loving professors who decided to give their major exams (FOUR in total) on valentine’s day and the morning after, I failed to prepare anything for this day, BOOOHOOOO :(
Good thing, Stefano saved the day!...

Instructions for Life by The Dalai Lama
Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.
Follow the three R’s: - Respect for self, - Respect for others and - Responsibility for all your actions.
Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

Boodle Fight! :)
Boodle fight is a military style of eating where long tables are prepared and food are on top of the banana leaves. Viands and rice ready to eat using your bare hands, jugs of water are prepared on the side to wash hands before the “eating combat”. With the signal to start the boodle fight, everyone aims for his/her position.
Today, the family had a boodle fiesta lunch! It’s...

I have learned
I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them;
I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back;
I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
I’ve learned that you can get by on charm, for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something;

ONE DAY.. SOMEDAY.
A friend of mine opened his wife’s underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper- wrapped package:
‘This, - he said - isn’t any ordinary package.’
He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box.
‘She got this the first time we went to New York , 8 or 9 years ago. She has never put it on , was saving it for a special occasion.
Well, I guess this...

Do you really have to be cruel to be kind?
Mean people have hurt me in the past, mean people make me wonder again and again if their intentions are to help by hurting people or to boost their own self-esteems by picking on other people. Mean people just simply disgust me. But then again, mean people made me strong and believe in no one else but myself. Mean people continue to...

Oldie but still a Goodie
Just had my “cherrybomb” cam refurbished from my “baul”. I removed the cherry print cover and had it fixed at Hidalgo, Quiapo yesterday. It’s not in tip-topnotch condition as it was extremely overused in the past but it still covers its purpose nonetheless (as a temporary secondary cam), which is to take…

…I am thankful, because.. I have adorable, charming and lovable pediatric patients. Without their cooperation and trust, putting a drill or even a mirror into their mouths would be impossible. Sometimes, we’d give anything to be a child once again. A child who worries about nothing but their lost toy or their wounded knee, a child free from lies, hesitations and fears. A child who...

12 Things I Wish I Knew at 25
Originally posted by Rev. James Martin, S.J. A few are insights from the great spiritual masters that I’ve adapted for my own life. Maybe a few will help someone you know who’s 25. Maybe one or two will help you.
1. First up: Stop worrying so much! It’s useless. (I.e. Jesus was right.)
2. Being a saint means being yourself. Stop trying to be someone else and just be your best...
