Normally it would pop up out of nowhere for like a day or two … Continue reading being sick all the time

The last three weeks has really been a blessing considering everything that I have gone through. The first week I was home, my mom stayed with me and … Continue reading Better late than never
I’ve been stuck at home recovering from surgery for about a few weeks now and I have run out of things to watch. I was surfing through Amazon Prime movies for something to watch and a Filipino movie came up. Filipino movies are mushy, corny love stories where one is fighting for the other to make the relationship work and they are definitely tear jerkers. … Continue reading I wish my love life was a Filipino love story
