Recap. Review. Reflection. Whatever. Blogs are expected to post a year-end entry or a reflection of the year that was, it seems. There are also some that look forward to the things that the new year will bring. The "one word" that will hopefully be the guidance to achieve goals. Shall I do a recap, review, or reflection? Or that "one-word"? Honestly, I do not know. Last year, I was reading a book called The One Year Love Language Minute Devotional by Gary Chapman. This was on top of the … [Read more...]
Goal: To Read More Books, Cymplified!
Recreational reading was one of my hobbies. I used to read Sweet Valley Twins, Sweet Valley High, my aunt's romance books, and Archie comics. I still have the Sweet Valley Twins, which I painted. See below. Finally, my #fridaynightmemories is done. I get to read #sweetvalleytwins on the weekends when I was a kid. Does anyone have a complete set I could borrow? :-) #worldwatercolormonth #cymplifiedillustration #derwentinktenseblocks A post shared by Cym M (@ceemee) on Jul 9, 2017 at 11:30pm … [Read more...]
Hope For Picky Eaters, Cymplified!
Almost all moms become frustrated when it happens. They were doing everything according to the doctors', their friends', other moms', online articles' recommendations on feeding their children. Naturally, it comes as a surprise when some kids will suddenly reject food that they were gobbling up just days before. It's even more of a surprise when I say that there's hope for picky eaters. I have picky eaters. When my babies reached six months, I made baby food for them. I pureed pumpkin, … [Read more...]
Autumn in South Africa, Cymplified!
South Africa Although the lion and the elephant are two of my favorite animals, it's one country that I never imagined myself going. But, I am glad I grabbed the opportunity, despite the hindrances. Like the airport accidents going to South Africa and coming home. I'll gladly tell you about those incidents if you send me a message. :-) Traveling makes me realize that we are foreigners in other countries but we are all citizens of the same world. Because we all live on the same Earth, … [Read more...]
Personal Trainers In The Pocket, Cymplified!
Why I need personal trainers I used to think that I have a pretty balanced diet. I used to think that it was okay to indulge in junk food. Since I was playing badminton and volleyball in high school; walking from building to building in college, with gym sessions in between, then back to badminton when I was working; I thought ANY food was alright. Each morning my weight resets. Now that I am in my mid 30's, the lbs. are taking up permanent residency and are difficult to evict. My … [Read more...]
Family Getaway: Summer on Balesin Island, Cymplified!
Holy Week in the Philippines sometimes mean traveling with the family. This year was a local trip to Balesin Island. We still had to ride an airplane though. We were at the hangar before sunrise. With this post, I am taking you on a short video-heavy tour of some of the places in Balesin we have set foot on. There were more themed villages to see, like Bali, Phuket, Costa Del Sol and Balesin Village. There were fruit and flower farms, fish and aviary to visit, too. En route to Balesin … [Read more...]
Inter-May-ssion {What’s That Word?}, Cymplified!
What is inter-May-ssion? I remember saying, in my previous post, that I wish I could press pause on May. It may look like I did because this blog was quiet for the whole month of May. There was a long inter-May-ssion. See what I did there? :-D What happened? Well... Cray-cray May! When May came in, our helper went out and had a two-week vacation. Hubby and I teamed up for the household chores. The littlest one's ballet classes were still ongoing. Nobody's going to stay at home with the … [Read more...]
