Happening Today: Iloilo

"We were touched by four characters, and the story of a family in Singapore. The director's intelligence and sensitivity bring forth very important issues - childhood, immigration, class struggles, the economic crisis. We were unanimous in our first round, and have chosen to award the Camera d'Or to Anthony Chen for ILO ILO." - Camera d'Or...

Bibliophiles Devotional

"So many books, so little time." - Frank Zuppa Oh yes, I can totally relate. Amidst the hustle and bustle of daily corporate life, my books teleport me to a whole new dimension where I can escape to an entirely different environment. Because it is my only way to escape my corporate world, I could never have enough. Opening a new book...

Junkie Find: The Cream Factory

Olfactory person as I am, one thing I look for in the stuff I get is its scent. This bath cream came in the mail this week and I loooovvvee it! This is The Cream Factory Bath Cream in Goat's Milk and Honey. It smells so yummy you'd want to linger in the shower more! According to their website, www.dessertfortheskin.com,...

"All his life he tried to be a good person. Many times, however, he failed. For after all, he was only human. He wasn't a dog." - Charles Schultz Oh, Sachi, how I wish I were you. To know how to obey all the time. To meet each day with excitement. To greet your master with unexpected glee. To just love unconditionally. xx, Corporate...

Never A Coincidence

"All sickness can be used for a greater purpose. Perhaps it's to bring you closer to God. Perhaps it's to bring you closer to your family. Perhaps it's your path to inner peace. If you're sick right now, I urge you to listen to God speaking through your soul. Perhaps there's a message in your sickness. Once you hear the message, do it. If you're sick right now, fill your life with love. Receive love. And give love." - Bo Sanchez,...

Omniscience

I have no concept of rest. The word is alien to me. My current state though, forces me to stay still and it is just now that I am learning to take things slow. They say it takes twenty-one days to make a habit and I am almost in a quarter-way of developing a new one -- randomly flipping the book and getting some sort of message...

The M Diary

Sistine Madonna. Raphael. "The tender words we said to one another are stored in the secret heart of heaven: One day like rain, they will fall and spread, and our mystery will grow green over the world." - Rumi The "M" word seems like a taboo. Noone really talks about it publicly. But I do. I may not touch the life of someone...

God's message for today: Restoration

"Return to your fortress, O prisoners of hope; even now I announce that I will restore twice as much to you." - Zechariah 9:12 And again, my Lord, Thy Will be done. Amen. xx, Corporate Junki...

On The Way To Reconstruction

It has been a while since my last post. I was very busy with house transfer and it was really tiresome resulting to some creative drought. This site will be on its way to some revamping - gonna use Adobe Muse (as per a friend's advice... so excited!) - But before I do that, please help me decide on which logo to use. Thank you so much to...

Gratitude.

Corporate Junkie Goes Back to Davao

Davao always fascinates me. It is one of the places where there is nothing to do but eat and chill (just like Bacolod!). My husband and I stayed there for three days and two nights from June 15-17 to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. We were accommodated by a very lovely Davaoena (if that is even the term) who made our stay so...

Nuggets of Wisdom

I came across this content from Paulo Coelho's blog and found some references to the original author. Lovely piece of work. I just needed to repost :) I Have Learned by Octavian Paler We have time … We have time for everything To sleep, or to be all over the place, To regret mistakes and do them again, To judge others and find excuses for ourselves, We have time to read and write, To correct our writings, and regret what...

The Lost Wonder of Banaue

“The Lord often has his prophets climb mountains to converse with Him. I always wondered why He did that, and now I know the answer: when we are on high, we can see everything else as small. Our glory and sadness lose their importance. Whatever we conquered or lost remains there below. From the heights of the mountain, you see...

Life's Big Inspirations

“It's a lie to think you're not good enough. It's a lie to think you're not worth anything.” - Nick Vujicic Standing tall, "limb-less" amidst a big crowd, you would not miss this man. It was not because he looked different from most of the people in the audience. It was not because he came from another country or the fact that he...
