Sunset from a relatively new office building that has a magnificent unobstructed view of Pasig, Makati, Quezon City, Taguig, and Rizal.
My work set-up for a project I worked on, with my work contants: Kleen Kanteen water bottle, Zojirushi coffee tumbler, Zebra Sarasa pen, and Moterm A5 ring planner. It was a delightful new experience, conducting interviews at night for mid-shift employees with EMEA schedules. I usually conduct these discovery calls online during regular office hours, and it had been a while since I was out until late at night working.
How cute is that? An amazingly perfect pint of ice cream I just had to take a picture of. I’ve been regularly craving ice cream lately so much so that I actually feel sad when there is no ice cream in the fridge lol.
R has been giving me yellow roses since I was 19, and I think he’s the only guy who still remembers these are my favorite flowers (In a world of red roses, be a yellow rose.) and who still consistently sends me yellow roses, albeit virtually now since he moved to New Zealand about 20 years ago. This was a picture of a yellow rose from his garden that he recently sent me on WhatsApp, with a short note, “Thinking of you.”
My Mother’s Day celebration. P sent me this picture of our babies, during their first visit to the Philippines. In one of the parties hosted by P’s dad, T was walking around with T, holding her hand and proudly announcing, “She’s my girlfriend!”
