RESPECT BEGETS RESPECT. The point of this post is not meant to defame or retaliate. I’m sharing a disappointing experience as a way of reminding suppliers that if a client treats you in a condescending or discourteous way, you don’t need to take it sitting down. In fact, you shouldn’t. WARNING: LONG POST BUT WORTH …
It still feels so surreal when I say it. Sometimes, I look at my growing belly and I feel the tiny kicks of my baby, and I am still in utter disbelief that – oh my god! – we’re going to be parents! Our guinea pig Booboo is going to be a big brother! “SO… …
Once upon a time, Mike and I experienced being models for a day… That time was our pre-nuptial / engagement shoot. Our parents and our parents’ parents probably never had something like this back in the day. But now, a pre-nup shoot is done by a lot of engaged couples to get people even more …
It’s been almost two months since we’ve moved into our new home! Right now, we’re still missing a few things like a dining table and a small couch, but so far, we’ve managed to turn this space into a place we can really call “ours” (well, until our lease contract expires, that is!). Before moving …

Sunnies Cafe is an all-day brunch restaurant founded by supermodel (and my little sister’s ultimate girl crush) Georgina Wilson, together with her other pretty model gal pals Martine Cajucom and Bea Soriano, who also pioneered the famous local eyewear brand, Sunnies Studios. For the final celebration on my birthday week, I had dinner at Sunnies Cafe …
For my birthday a few weeks ago, I didn’t really plan a big and grand celebration. I wanted to save money and I just had one simple wish: to eat sushi! Lots of sushi! Well, I got my sushi, all right… but I got so much more than that. I got to feast on all …
My aunt asked me a few days before my birthday, “How old will you be this year?” Without flinching, I proudly said “Thirty three!” My cousin-in-law laughed and said, “You’re too honest! You should have said twenty seven!” (I could have said 8.25, actually. The advantages of being a leap year baby!) I was getting …
