Magaling ‘yon sumubli,” I always hear my father say this when we attend celebrations in my mother’s hometown in Agoncillo, Batangas. In the small barangay of Bilibinwang, everytime there is a big celebration everyone who would want to give thanks and ask for blessings gather and […]

Read More Through the Small ScreensI am a firm believer that heartbreaks do not need two people going separate ways. Sometimes, heartbreaks happen in instances that do not even involve a break-up. 1.

Read More To my selfless Tita NorrisToday marks our 99th month together. When I tell people how long our relationship has been and how we got through all these, my heart would always skip a beat.
