  • Sweet Sleep

    Do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble. “When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep…

  • An Anniversary Post

    Has it been a year since my handsome web designer posted this? “The website will be filled with thoughts, ponders, rants and scribbles of Issa. (I’m sure of it.) You might also run into some pictures of her tutees, workmates and adventures. Poems and stories and more.” How pushy, I thought (haha). It turned out,…

  • LET Passers 2011

    My sister just took the LET last April 2011, luckily my vacation period. She was focused, determined, yet anxious during her self-review. Today, we both learned she passed.

Miss Diamant has my utmost…

  • MANIPESTO NG ISANG DAYO

    ni Pat Villafuerte 1. nakahihirin ang bawat paglunok ng laway na sinaid ng mga pagbilin at pagpapaalala habang ang bawat bisig at mga labi ay nag-iiwan ng bakas ng pangungulila. di mahawan ang sapot ng pagluha na binikig ng putul-putol na pangangaral at paninisi, ng pangangatuwiran at pagtanggap, ng pagbabalik-loob at pagpapatawad. sa nalalapit kong paglisan, kayraming…

  • Yin Vibes

    Dark. Negative. Passive. Moon. Feminine. That’s what Yin means. Immobile. Constrained. Just like a pupa: never feeding..never moving. Maybe I lack plans. Or worse, I seem to lack direction. I don’t want this loneliness to eat my being. Not now. Contentment or complacency? Maybe I am not thankful enough. My sense of balance has probably…

Flex your brain muscles with these 10 perplexing words! 1. gourmand vs. gourmet. Gourmand means someone who likes to eat and drink a lot without discrimination (=glutton) while a gourmet…

  • Esperanto or English?

    Have you ever dreamed of creating a language that people in the world widely speak and understand? Probably, most of us did.  Though very few of us tried our best to construct a simple language that will help bridge cultural gaps.
