Picking the Right Ninongs and Ninangs for your Child

I wrote this article for a testing assignment and I want to share my thoughts on getting ninongs and ninangs (godparents) for baptism, which is very important in a child's life.

Last Cosplay Photoshoots for 2012: New and Old

5:39 AM

Gosh, I can’t believe I haven’t blogged for three months. I’m quite disappointed because I promised myself that I will blog more.

But everything is cool and starting to be...

Blogging Update 5.31.2012

5:08 AM

As you can see, it’s been a long time since I blogged here. The past weeks have been hectic and, for some odd reason, I’m having a hard time organizing stuff. I’m usually an organized person, thus the reason why I have an organizer. But for the month of May, everything is like a whirlwind and I don’t know how to organize things....

Aside from work, my bf and I have been busy with cosplay. Ever since we started cosplay last year, we met great people that became our friends because of our common interest in anime, manga, games and cosplay.

I never imagined it to grow up and be a venue in discovering various things. Named as “Scrutiny of the Mind”, this...
