The Story of my Life

"If I could wish for my life to be perfect,
it would be tempting, but I would have to decline,
for life would no longer teach me anything..."

Snippets

My writing skills went on leave thus the silence in this blogpage for weeks. So for now, I can only provide you with bullet points of what happened in the past four weeks.

  • My first out of town trip this year was Punta Fuego. Thanks to Wilson's generosity. Check out my multiply for photos.
  • I'm back gymming, playing badminton and volleyball. And I'm sooo loving it!
  • Jom and I watched Tuesdays with Morrie a couple of weeks back. Sorry naman naiyak po ako...haayyy.
  • My brother got married by civil rites last January 11. Church wedding to be announced.
  • We've just booked our flight to Boracay for 4 to 7 April.
  • I'm currently reading Sputnik Sweethearts by Haruki Murakami (I stopped reading How to walk in High Heels to give way to this book). Next in line, A Thousand Splendid Suns.
That's it for now. I hope next time I get to write more.

New Year Recipe

Posted by Claire |

Take twelve whole months.
Clean them thoroughly of all bitterness,
hate, and jealousy.
Make them just as fresh and clean as possible.

Now cut each month into twenty-eight, thirty, or
thirty-one different parts,
but don't make up the whole batch at once.

Prepare it one day at a time out of these ingredients.
Mix well into each day one part of faith,
one part of patience, one part of courage,
and one part of work.

Add to each day one part of hope,
faithfulness, generosity, and kindness.
Blend with one part prayer, one part meditation,
and one good deed.

Season the whole with a dash of good spirits,
a sprinkle of fun, a pinch of play,
and a cup full of good humor.

Pour all of this into a vessel of love.
Cook thoroughly over radiant joy,
garnish with a smile,
and serve with quietness, unselfishness,
and cheerfulness.

You're bound to have a happy new year.
