The 10,000-hour Rule

The minute we got to SF, hubby wanted to eat at this ramen place that was on the same street where we were staying.

Waking up in Vegas

Packing my bags the last minute is so not me, but then that’s what marriage does to you *wink*.

We got to the airport on time and headed to the lounge to wait for our flight to board.

One Blogging Nation

I woke up early, beating the alarm clock by an hour. Unlike most days when I would groggily open my eyes and beg for a couple of minutes more in slumber, I was wide-awake.

A Steaming Cup to Soothe Troubled Minds

I woke up early this morning to the phone ringing bearing not so good news. I fell back asleep deep in thoughts and woke up again with hubby telling me it was late.

I couldn’t help but think it was all a dream.

The whole day was overcast with everyone paranoid about the arrival of Pepeng. It was like the weather took pleasure in keeping everyone in suspense. Dark skies, very soft rain and no wind.

Everyone prayed.

Hubby got home early and i went home as soon as i could arriving just in time to escape the downpour.

Waiting…hoping it would never come…

Anticipation needed a soothing cup of sweetness
