For some, this past February 14 is an (un)happy Valentine’s day. It has become rather commercialized and a chance for establishments to sell love-themed things at a higher price. These people find the posts of flowers or chocolates or dates somehow cloying. It reminds others of their states, whether by choice or not. Aloneness, loneliness, rejection, loveless. For some, aside from having heart-shaped or red-colored things, they also celebrate anniversaries or birthdays. Can't feel the … [Read more...]
Chapter October, Cymplified!
Chapter October Celebration One of the chapters in a year that I look forward to is Chapter October. It's not my birth month, but it's my hubby's. That means there's cake! Yum! :-P Also, it's when we celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. Thirteen years married. Whoa! That means we've known each other for almost two decades. Although we didn't discuss any plans, I was hoping we'd have lunch together before we fetch the children from school. It didn't happen. But... We had dinner at Café … [Read more...]
Embrace Women, Cymplified!
Embrace Women And Their Differences There are numerous kinds of women. There are countless combinations of personalities and preferences; not to mention race, culture and beliefs. Like flowers with copious species, women bloom differently and each is unique. The number of petals might differ largely or slightly, another might flourish facing the sun and the other blossoms embraced by cold air.

Book & Borders Café, Cymplified!
Book & The Introvert in me is super curious about the Book & Borders Café. I love the idea of reading a book, while sipping coffee in a quiet and cozy corner! It's one of my me-time dreams. I appreciate the chance to visit the newly opened Book & Borders Café on Banawe St. in Quezon City. It was my hubby who saw it and told me to wait there. He probably remembered all the times I gushed about books and coffee. Upon entering, I made a beeline for the shelves that held various books … [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...]
