My Weekend Journal

Thank God, it's Friday! This is my favorite day. Aside from it being the last working day of the week, we have free snacks courtesy of our generous Executive Officers. Today, we have ice cream and cupcakes. What is so special today? We are celebrating a friend's birthday! Happy Birthday, Junele! Our happiness would have been complete if only some of our colleagues and friends were not leaving the company. We have been working together for more than three years. We may have transferred from one department to another but the silent bond is still there. I really hate goodbyes. Where is the good in goodbye?

When once you were famous but became egomaniac and insufferable and all the people who were head over heels with you would spit on your face if given a chance? Value what you have now before you end up craving for them when they were lost. The word … … after it's said! Have you ever been wounded by words? I have, and most...

Three weeks after giving birth, I had rashes all over my body. At first, I noticed some red spots on my back and thought those were only insect bites. But later on the day, the spots spread to my legs, arms, neck, face and stomach; and eventually, they are all over my body! They itch really bad I could hardly sleep.
