There must be a way to end this! I mean, they’re like pests on the road. They just swerve in and out lanes as they please, without any consideration for others, whether it be pedestrian or other vehicles.  And the most irritating part of it is when they would squeeze themselves at the middle of the rood, right on top of the road paint, just to get through.  And then some would even knock at your car, telling you to let them through.  The nerve!!!  No wonder there are so many cyclists experiencing accidents.  Read the rest of this entry »

Grandma and me

I thought it was going to be a slow, lonely weekend since my husband’s out of town with friends.  But I was wrong.  Staying over with family over the weekend was a really good decision.  I was able to bond with my grandma, with whom I lived with for a good 6 years, including a year of married life.  The stay made me realize how I missed her. She stood as my parent when my own needed to go abroad for work. Read the rest of this entry »

I came across this test from one of my daily reads.  Its a test to see how good you are at detecting misspelled words.  I was an editor in a former job and I thought it would be a great way to check if I still have it without the help of good ‘ol spell checker.  And guess what?  I got disappointed.  I got 18 out of 25.

Where I Work

Thursday is THE doomsday for me.  Today’s the first time that I decided to brave the roads despite the notorious traffic scheme.  I woke up exceptionally early, dragged myself out of bed, in this nice bed weather, (insert pout here) to beat the specified time ban. What I didn’t realize was that traffic was even worse because of the schools where I pass by.  So I turned around and took the EDSA route.
