Meet Pom Conan who doesn't shy away from the cam but can't take its blinding flash. And so I could only take this pic from the side.

When I Went Loco in Ilocos

It's summer time once again! School is over, Holy Week is a few days away, and everyone is starting to make plans for their vacation. Head for the beach or a nearby resort? Participate in sports marathons? Take a crash course in arts, culinary, or photography? Organize a family reunion? Or simply spend a weekend watching cable TV or old DVDs? The choices are aplenty, depending on the available time and budget. Since I am restricted by both, I figured I have to be as creative as I can in order to join the summer frenzy. And so . . . BACKTRACK to July 2011, that memorable time I spent in the scenic province of Ilocos. The destinations: Vigan, Laoag, and of course, Pagudpud! Mitchie ♥ Come to think of it, this is a very belated account of that trip. Shame! But as they say, better late than never. Yes!! FIRST STOP: VIGAN Richie and I reached the UNESCO World Heritage site of Vigan in the wee hours of the morning, probably around 4:30 am hahaha! We realized we eithe...

My Favorite Things In random order:  1. Writing , which is why this blog was born; which is why I took up journalism in college; which is why nearly all my professional experience had something to do with either writing or rewriting; and which is why I loved it when Jyego would write me little notes (just to say thank you or sorry ) when he was growing up.

Jyego wears one. 3. Aguila , my paternal name, because it is associated with the eagle, a symbol of power and nobility. 4. Leo , my zodiac sign, my birthday being July 23. Cheers!!! I am a true-blooded Leo so I had the symbol tattooed just below the back of my neck. Many references say Leos are the most dominant of all the zodiacs. I cannot agree more! Depending on the person I am dealing with, this trait can be my ...

It was a good day yesterday. My son took an entrance exam in FEU Diliman, and he passed. *grin* It was both our first time to set foot in the school. Jyego was visibly nervous, but he was also ecstatic at the new environment surrounding him, a vast university on roughly a 15-hectare piece of land. In spite of the scorching heat, it felt nice walking on the university's covered walks and seeing a lot of greens all around. As the university claims, there is peace and quiet within the school premises. When we reached the Guidance office, it was past eleven o'clock in the morning. We were politely told by one of the personnel that we were a few minutes late into having Jyego take the test. We agreed to meet there again at one o'clock in the afternoon. Jyego and I went to the canteen, but he did not want to eat anything. He was obviously still feeling tensed. I wasn't so hungry myself, so we just sat there. The cafeteria isn't a very fancy place (it's not even ai...
