It was deja vu for me – travelling through C5 and, eventually, EDSA to get to SLEX. Only, I wasn’t driving and stuck in traffic all by myself. This time I was riding with three other fab ladies and kuya driver.
Our destination was the Amherst Laboratories of Unilab in Mamplasan, Binan. Six or seven years [...]

If there’s one thing that WordPress users should look forward to every year, it’s WordCamp. It’s a time for WordPress lovers to come together and learn from the gurus. I attended last year’s camp, and came away with a lot of learning that I immediately applied to my blogs.
The most practical learning was how to [...]
For parents, time management skills start to be challenged as soon as the first baby is born. As families grow bigger and older, schedules become tighter and busier. And, unfortunately, the challenge of time management becomes more difficult with each year and each child.
There are kids to drive, kids to tutor, kids to cook for, [...]

I feel bad for not being able to blog as often. This month was (was! It’s almost over!) Women’s Month and I was not able to write a single blog post about it. Boohoo.
But the Health and Wellness team of writers (all of them beautiful women) at the poc.net worked hard all month to make [...]
“For age is an opportunity, no less than youth itself,
though in another dress. And as the evening twilight fades away,
the sky is filled with stars invisible by day.”

Last Saturday, on the way home from The Fort after having dinner with ex-colleagues, I finally saw the huge electronic billboard of Nuffnang along EDSA that says: hello, bloggers. It gave me that warm feeling all over, because bloggers are gaining more popularity and public acceptance in the Philippines.
Nuffnang is the phenomenal brainchild of two [...]
The other exciting personal pursuit I talked about in my previous post is The Filipino Mom Blog. And it is finally online!
How did this begin? It was never intended to be a full-blown blog project… All we – Cess, Cookie, Feng, Julie, Lynn, Wenchie and I – wanted to do initially was to blog about [...]

I know, I know.
My entries have become sporadic and sparse again lately. On top of that, I have been unable to visit your blogs. This is because, aside from parenting tasks (waking up early, driving, tutoring, driving, breaking up fights), I have also been busy with other personal pursuits.
Things like these (personal pursuits, I mean) [...]
