a new beginning...


As of today, I have pledged to keep a journal of the little learnings I get every day.. hoping to have a treasury of things to tell my grandchildren or just make me laugh when I am old and gray...


Here is what I learned today, actually I've kinda known this for a long time already and only decided to put it in writing today..

A toilet bowl with a closed lid in a public restroom is a scary thing. How would you like to open one and find there are unidentified floating objects... ewww.. I'd rather not! That is why, in this lifetime, I vow never to venture into the abyss of "what hides behind the closed lids". Unless, I have someone else with me, wanting to experience the whole thing wth me hoping not to puke upon whatever we might uncover, then I just might reconsider it.... Or, maybe not...

Do opposites attract and similar repel?? I beg to disagree!!

For sure you've heard of the cliche "birds of the same feather flock together" ; however there is also a saying "opposites attract and similar repel" which means exactly its opposite. So really, what gives? For sure, in the world of electricity; "opposites attract" is a fact but I think with the psychology of man, the former is more applicable.  I say this because of a personal experience with an unknown attraction to certain personalities and characters both in real life and in the fictional world.  Here are some of the personalities and characters I'm unusually drawn to... Bugs Bunny - I adored him as a kid and even as a adult, I still think he is so fun and intelligent!  Adam Savage - I'm a fan of Mythbusters ofcourse! Tom Hanks - I honestly think there is not one movie he starred it that wasn't good or wasn't played well! Neil Patrick Harris - I first loved him as a genius and

Product Review: Magnolia Pancake Plus (with maple syrup)

Image
I always like to make something from scratch but there are times when I just want to get something from the grocery aisle, open the package, pour the contents and just whip it up in a jiffy! So when I went to the grocery the other day, I grabbed a box of instant pancakes, cooked it yesterday and here is my review. By the way, I have 2 favorite fast-food pancakes - McDonalds with their regular pancakes and KFC with their chocolate chip pancakes, but in lieu of those good ones, this is a definite must-try! PRODUCT NAME: Magnolia Pancake Plus (with maple syrup) PRICE: 31.80 pesos at Gaisano Capital South The instruction was to add 2/3 cup water but I added 1 cup so I can make more pancakes and it still tasted great, no eggs and no orange juice needed. (perfect for those working under a budget) After adding water to the powder, it mixes easily and not a lot of effort is needed to get the lumps out. (yey, no muscle-creating exercise here!) The package says, “makes 12 m

Legolas oh Legolas...

I’d like to feel young and single again and just drool over some pictures of gorgeous guys today… (technically just 1 gorgeous guy with different looks...) It really started last night while I saw a glimpse of the movie The Hobbit 2 while feeding my beloved kid Izel dinner and I was shouting the whole time when Orlando Bloom (aka Legolas) came out and sashayed with his long flowing white hair, his cool yet noble stance, and his piercing eyes into the scene shooting arrows accurately here and there! Scenes like that just bring you back to earlier pubescent days when surges of estrogen and other hormones are kicking in… (yikes! I mean, what is a girl to do with that, right?) Historically though, I’ve had a crush on Legolas ever since I first laid my eyes on him in Lord of the Rings. Orlando is cute but Legolas is super super hot!!! (whew!) Anyway, here are some pictures I googled so you can see the point I am making…and you can drool along with me or just l
