Another happy post-Christmas celebration with my girls!This year, however, is a different and meaningful one. We didn't just celebrate Christmas among ourselves but somehow "passed on the celebration to others". ...
Merie Christmas, I mean MERRY CHRISTMAS from the Clarete family to yours!
Unlike previous years wherein we get to celebrate this special occasion with relatives, this year we are alone as a family. We don't have the magarbong...
Meeting people and eating while catching up must be one of the good things this life has to offer. I feel delighted that all throughout this year, I was able to squeeze in such meet-ups despite the corporate-slave-busyness I have. Sometimes...
Last Saturday, it was our second time to participate in 98B Collab’s Saturday Future Market at Escolta. And each time, I am amazed how talented and creative Filipinos can be. I can’t help but admire those people who are really into these...

This is overdue but I MUST BLOG ABOUT THIS! Part of the greatest things I’m thankful for this 2013 is being one of the grand winners of Ensembles’ Wear My Design Year 2! Thus, it is apt to write a sole post for this very ultimate superb...

Not the best photo of my newly-dyed and cut hair by Piandre. New nail color too! After trying Piandre out, I'd still choose Falconi! Or maybe I'd give other Piandre branches a try, but I got disappointed tonight. Anyway, this is still...
Hooray!! Animo La Salle!! Waited for five years, we’re back and we’re no.1!!!
Six years ago I was able to witness La Salle’s win over UE which led to their 2007 championship! A year after, La Salle made it to the finals once again;...
It happened to be DLSU-UST’s game 2 on our 33rd monthsary and what’s the best way to celebrate it?? Inside the Big Dome! Haha! First, we cheered for our respective alma maters, and of course DLSU won!! They have to!!!
After the game,...
Yesterday, Luke and I watched the do or die game of NU-UST, semi-finals round. We’re lucky to get patron tickets for the game and witness up-close his alma mater’s win. Yes, UST won. They made it to the finals, which translates to our...
Me to Luke: a-Yabuuuu (I love you)

One buzzing payday Friday, I rushed to the Manila International Book Fair at SMX not to shop for books but to at least see Shing (Jezreel Manugue) once again, after...
Yay!! Finally, though a quick one, an eat-out with Tin pushed through! It was one nippy lunch-out at Saboten. It was a first for the both of us and we actually liked it. Since I’m not really a fan of Japanese cuisine, it was a good...

I am OA-ly emotional of last night’s win! Ako lang ba? I bet the whole nation joined together in a tear-jerker kapit-bisig moment as we won over Korea and cut the so-called “curse-of-Korea” during the FIBA Asia 2013 playoffs! It was a sure ticket to FIBA WORLD in Spain 2014!!! Grabe the feeling!!! It was so hard to contain...
