Back to old ways...


Part of living a healthy way is forgetting about this meat. Still, my first challenge of getting back to pescetarian diet is seeing my family eat lechon manok with a cold bottle of soda, and me at the side eating my oatmeal...

People who are not gifted with great metabolism really need an extra effort to stay healthy. And especially for those who are working on graveyard shift like me...it should be eat healthy, sleep more and exercise…

I am looking forward for a one year survival marking this first day of September 2013.

Alone Time

People often wonder why I am always by myself, no, not always but most of the time. They look at me as if I have no time for fun or anything. And as if I always work hard. 

Little did they know, I am not the hardest worker in town, I just do my best so that I won’t regret of not giving my best shot in the end. I make fun, and I do not need to look for it in a company of so many. It is much more of appreciating little things around. I have genuine set of friends and whenever we get along surely it is a nonstop laughs. 

I have simple but quality moments every time. Hassle free and a close encounter with what I wanted to do. 

Don’t worry, I can get along with anybody, it’s just that my alone time is one of the happiest time of my life. And I prefer it most of the time.

One Step At a Time


          Someday…

         I can be at two places at one time;

         I can be a CEO of my dream project, laughs!;
         I can be with someone who will take care of me and whom I will love in the best way I could;
         I can just smile and forget about the tears;
         I can have the best things in life apart from what I have right now;
         I can make an impact;
         I can be as grateful as I can be;
         I can make YOU proud of me;
         .
         .
         .
         ...
         Taking one step at a time...

Know Your Worth


"Know your worth. – When someone treats you like you’re just one of many options, help them narrow their choice by removing yourself from the equation.  Sometimes you have to try not to care, no matter how much you do.  Because sometimes you can mean almost nothing to someone who means so much to you.  It’s not pride – it’s self-respect.  Don’t expect to see positive changes in your life if you surround yourself with negative people.  Don’t give part-time people a full-time position in your life.  Know your value and what you have to offer, and never settle for anything less than what you deserve." - taken from 14 Rules for Being YOU ...

Pork Nilaga :)

Pork Nilaga

Ingredients
Pork Ribs
Petchay
Red Bell Pepper
Baguio Beans
Spring Onions
Tomato
Ginger
Salt to Taste
1 Piece Kalamansi
4 Drops Soy Sauce

I am the only one practicing pescetarian diet in my family and most of the time they do not like eating fish and vegetables. So I need to cook like this. Though I am not into strict pescetarian diet because it is really hard to cook different dishes in one meal when there are only three of us eating. I do not like wasting food. Basically I eat the vegetables and they eat the meat.
