Learning new stuff is something most people relish with gusto. Knowing things others don’t is something a lot of people relish, too. So if you’re either of the two, good for you. After all, learning is its own reward. Some points raised in a recent conversation with friends are the reasons why guys cheat, nipples […]
When Sleep Becomes A Problem
I’m a workaholic, and I don’t deny that. Despite this, however, I make sure I get enough sleep to make me last through another day of work. But lately, I noticed I haven’t been sleeping much, and for several weekends now when I technically should have more time to sleep and recharge, I still haven’t […]
Happy Mother’s Day!
I remember back in February, my seven-year old came home from school smiling shyly. As soon as he was inside the house, he handed me a handmade card for Valentine’s. Even though the card was some sort of a project his teacher made them do in school, it totally warmed my heart. The heart of […]
What’s In A Name Anyway?
Warning: Mom blogger named Maricel who loves Harry Potter and thinks her kids have the most amazing names in the world is writing the content below, thereby, the probability of biased judgment.

When On The Road, Better Safe Than Sorry
My husband got involved in a vehicle mishap on the morning of New Year’s Day. While driving along a dimly lit section of the McArthur Highway in Tarlac City, an SUV hit him from behind, making his vehicle spin three times. It was very fortunate there were no incoming vehicles in the opposite lane. From […]
This Christmas, I Wish PAGIBIG Would Send Bills On Time
While working on this post, I am sick, and I hate it. I feel feverish, but no, that won’t keep me from writing. Not yet, at least. I’ve got tonsillopharyngitis. The scratchiness in my throat started Monday afternoon, which was aggravated by the very cold temperature inside the airconditioned bus I boarded for Manila. And […]
Nail Biting In Children
My six-year old oftentimes bites his fingernails, especially when he isn’t occupied with stuff. And because he loves holding things with his hands as well – the typical six-year old, curious as they come – the nail biting bothers me immensely. Lately, I realized he doesn’t even know he’s biting his fingernails until I tell […]
What Is Hypothyroidism?
In a previous post, we said hyperthyroidism is a condition where the thyroid gland produces excessive thyroid hormones, affecting the body’s overall metabolic functions. Symptoms of this disease include excessive sweating, increased bowel movement, trembling hands, muscle weakness, irregular or scant menstrual flow, to name a few. In this post, we’re going to tackle the […]
On Sprained Ankles and Battered Women
I was on my way to a venue in Makati City yesterday morning when I twisted my ankle just outside the Makati Med premises. I was lost and having trouble finding my way to my destination when this happened. Against my better judgment, I braved the discomfort and went on walking, determined to not miss […]
A Tale of Two Bullies
I was blog hopping when I stumbled upon a line that made me pause: “Bullies are made at home.” The exact words of a blogger-doctor. Well, yes, I know for a fact that a person’s attitude, whether good or not, always somehow finds its way back to how he was raised as a child. Come […]
