What A Wonderful Day
I woke up this morning feeling well-rested and I’ve been feeling this way since the 3rd week of January this year. Maybe because I love what I do since that day. I also noticed that I don’t easily get sick for the past 3 months which is also a good thing. Today is a wonderful…

I Don’t Share my Problems Anymore
Sharing problems and complaining about how bad our situation in life right now won’t solve any of it. We don’t know what other people think about us. Some may feel happy that we are suffering and others console us but they’re also dealing with their issues in life. Sometimes, it makes us feel lighter because…

A Few More Steps To Go
3 months ago, I did some manifestation about shifting my current situation. I looked back on my past mistakes and decisions that lead me to where I was last year. Today, I can tell how fast-moving I am to where I want to be. My goals this time are created out of inspiration. I never…

I Am Grateful
I just got my new training schedule until the end of March and that’s the reason why I am able to make a post today. Since the 19th of January this year, my mornings are occupied, and squeezing some time to update here isn’t possible. Going out, encountering or experiencing new things, and meeting different…

A Little Update
It’s been a while, my WordPress readers! I’ve been quite busy these past weeks with my training. Some of you may just followed my blog recently (thank you!) and yes, I do miss updating here. I had and will have a hectic schedule these next few months and I’m a little excited about it. I’m…

Manifesting Good Things
Before I even welcomed the year 2023, I read a book called The Secret wherein I learned how manifesting good things works. I decided to try it last month and guess what. It does work! If you put your heart and mind into manifesting your wishes, they’ll surely happen when you least expect it. Your…

Sudden Change of Routine
It’s been almost a week since the last time I posted here on my blog because I got busy and there’s a sudden change in my routine. I still wake up early to do my usual tasks during the day. I’m adjusting and maximizing my time more in training, house chores, and business. Yes, I’m…

Half Way is Almost Over
Yes, I’m talking about the month of January. Time flies! Half of it is over and I can’t remember what I’ve done with those first three weeks of the new year. Maybe it’s normal to feel this way when I enjoy every single day that I wake up. There were days that I want to…

Things I Look Forward Seeing Every Day
Have you ever gotten excited to wake up and start your day feeling good? I do. There are things that I look forward to seeing every day that makes me feel grateful. As I grew older, the more I realized how little things matter in my life. I easily get distracted by bigger things and…

Guess Who Is Being Consistent
It’s been 10 days now (or now in some areas) since the year 2023 started and I’m pleased to tell you that I’m being consistent now in most things that I do. I made a commitment to myself last year that I will be more disciplined for me to reach my goals based on the…

Writer’s Block
What do you do to fight writer’s block? The word fight sounds too strong but that’s what I feel right now. I want to fight this feeling of not being able to write something good. I’m motivated to write about something but my mind is not cooperating with my heart. When my fingers are ready,…

The Opposite of the Other Day
Geez. Today is the opposite of the other day – busy and still productive. I woke up a little early than usual and began cleaning the mess my pets made on the balcony. They ruined the pillow bed I gave them last night. This isn’t new to me and it’s fine. They’re part of the…

2 of 365: A Chill and Productive Day
I opened my eyes this morning feeling grateful for waking up again. I made my bed and gathered my laptop, tumbler, and journal. I tied my hair and went downstairs to make food for my pets. It’s been a week now since I skipped drinking something hot in the morning and just eat a heavy…

My New Year’s Resolutions 2023
Two days after the year 2022 officially ended and I want to share with you my New Year’s Resolutions 2023. I wasn’t planning to make one but for some reason, I had the urge to write them. I guess I have to create a reminder for myself of the things I wanted to attain this…

1 of 365: How I Spent My First Day of the Year 2023
5:15 am – The time I woke up this morning. I checked my phone and closed my eyes for a few more minutes. I slept late last night, 10 minutes before midnight. I only had 5 hours of sleep but I felt okay. 5:40 am – When I decided to get up. I made my…

A Summary of My Year 2022
A few more hours to go and it’s already the year 2023. I honestly can’t feel excitement as I type this post. Maybe when I wake up tomorrow, that’s the only time I can feel that it’s another clean slate for all of us to be filled with memories. I’ve been thinking since last night…

A Cold Last Week of December 2022
We’ve been experiencing light rain from the morning of Christmas Eve until today. I have checked the weather forecast for tomorrow and still, a rainy day. This weather doesn’t make me feel guilty about napping after eating lunch and having coffee every time I wake up. Staying at home is probably the best way to…

Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Compare Yourself to Others
I just received some great news yesterday. Two of my cousins are about to go on different journeys – building a family and getting married. I feel so happy for them and at the same time, a little sad for myself. I can’t help but compare myself to other people. I wrote a couple of…

Things I Want to Tell My Younger Self
As I was looking for old magazines that I could use to make my vision board, I saw my old dream book and book of life projects back in my first year in college. I took them with me downstairs because I got curious. I can no longer remember what I have written to it.…

Deciding Where I Want To Be
I suddenly feel the urge to make a list of things I want to achieve for this coming year 2023 after I read a very inspiring story of success. Looking back, I’ve never had a list of specific things I wanted to reach yearly. Once, we had this project in college where we made a…

How Reading Helps Me to Survive
I have been reading some self-help books for a couple of months now while I wasn’t that active here on my blog. I must say that reading helps me to survive and become better than I used to be when it comes to facing hurdles as well as how to stay motivated every day. Some…

Unconditional Love From Having Pets
Do you have pets? Are you considering adopting or buying one? Before you make a decision, hopefully, you have already read this post, and could help you come up with whether you want one or not. I currently have 5 dogs and 4 cats. Yes, it’s a challenge to take care of them every day.…

First Day of Being 28
It’s official! I’m already 28 years old today! I woke up with greetings from my loved ones. I’m not going to have a celebration this year because one, I don’t want to spend money that I don’t have yet just for my birthday. It will pass like other days. Two, my friends and family are…

The Meaning of Life
I’m currently reading this book called Four Hours Workweek by Timothy Ferriss and this line made me want to write about my current situation: “Most people will choose unhappiness over uncertainty.” This line made me reminisce about my past situation today. After I graduated from college, I was so eager to find a job because…

I’m Protecting My Space
As I write this, the rain’s noise is what I’m only hearing. I feel comfortable and confident with my decisions in life these days so I decided to share some of my thoughts today. I’m not as open as I used to be about what I really feel with people around me that’s why I…

Be A Great Pretender Sometimes
Have you ever pretended to be a strong person to someone so they can feel the same way too? I, myself, have been in this situation for a while now. I don’t feel it’s my obligation or what but I feel good when I can bring encouragement and positivity to other people, strangers or not.…

Random Thought
It’s funny how draining it can be to encourage and cheer up others to have a positive outlook in life when you, yourself, can’t do it as well…

5 Things That I Promise To Myself
It’s my birth month, everyone! I’m turning 28 this year and I feel kind of excited about the things that I’m about to experience soon. Some people think that at this age, I should already have my own family, house, and comfortable life. Well, plot twist! I don’t have any of those things YET. I’m…

RealTalk. Welcome Back to Life, Danielle!
Am I the only one who gets annoyed when people ask me if I have a job now? If not, then you can relate to this article. I find it insulting when people don’t mind their businesses. You can ask someone what’s keeping them busy instead of asking if they have work or none rather.…

I Recommend This Book
Have you ever regretted taking the paths you’ve taken? Like, when you think about your past, you begin to imagine what kind of life will you have right now. Would you be successful or fail? Would you be happily married, divorced, widowed, or still single? Would you have become a doctor, teacher, regular employee, or…

We All Need To Learn How To Wait
“Patience is a virtue” is what I always remind myself whenever I feel like I am losing it. I admit that I was the kind of person who is impatient about everything. When I want something, I want it right away. And once I realized that it’ll take me so much effort and hard work…

Make Your Own Timeline
Have you tried to make your own timeline? I was thinking about making one last night and it made me excited. I searched on Google how to make one but I find their ways a little complicated and technical. Haha. So, I tried to find somewhere else like on Pinterest. And of course, it didn’t…

Why You Shouldn’t Settle For Less
When it comes to decision-making, some of you might just want to stay in your comfort zone. I understand how terrifying it can be to do something that is new for us. However, taking risks and facing our fear is one way of growing and being a better version of ourselves. Personally, I love the…

Things I Wish They Teach In School
As I look back on my school days and see the teaching system in my country and other parts of the world, I recognize that some important things in life are not being taught in school. Most of the problems and issues that occur these days are related to people’s beliefs and mindsets. And honestly,…

My Experiences (So Far) From Not Having a Facebook
It’s almost two years now since I deleted my Facebook account and I don’t miss anything about it, to be honest. I’ve gained so many positive things from doing it, and I don’t think I’ll come back on that app again. The FOMO feeling wasn’t here anymore and I’m going to share with you how…

What My Day Looks Like
My alarm is always set at 5:15 am. But lately, I feel sleepy most days so I decided to change it to 5:45 am. I get up at 6 am and officially start my day. I make my bed, change clothes, and bring my book and highlighter downstairs. My dogs are always thrilled to see…

How Journaling Helps Me Set My Goals and Be More Productive
I just finished writing in my journal and that was the main reason why I decided to share with you my experience so far with having it. You know, it’s different if you’re seeing than remembering what have you done in the first few days and months of the year. I used to do journaling…

Honest Confession
Hi! How’s everybody doing? It’s been a while, isn’t it? It’s nearly a year now since the last time I updated here and I do miss you all. A lot of things happen over the past 11 months and I can’t imagine how fast time went by! As I look back, I can’t honestly tell…

Are They “The One” For You?
Being in love with the right person is one of the greatest things that we can experience in life. Just by watching chick flicks and romantic movies or series, you’ll feel it. We imagine being in giddy situations where everything seems perfect. Yet, it’s not always the case for some of us. When it comes…

Small Things That Will Make You Happy 2021
I decided to rewrite the post that I made a couple of months ago about the things that make me happy. Because every day, I have a lot of realization in life that adds more to my list. I’m typing this while eating candy-coated milk chocolate. Another little thing that makes me feel happy. Today,…

Short Hair, Don’t Care
Yes, you read it right. I just got a haircut last night. It was a sudden decision while I was looking in the mirror. I felt that working out isn’t enough to change the way I look. So, I asked my mom to cut my hair to shoulder length. I have no regrets unlike other…

Let’s Make It Short But Sweet
Happy 1st of July! I’m in the mood to update my blog so here I am again. It’s been two weeks since I last updated here. Seeing how little attention I give to my blog by not updating for so long makes me sad. But knowing the reason behind that makes me feel relieved in…

My Weight Gain Journey Update
As of today, I’m 4 kilos ( 8.81 pounds) away from my target weight. I started my journey in March this year. And for me to be committed to my goal, I record my weight every 5th day of the month since March. I exercise at least 15 minutes a day and I eat more…

When Finding The Right One
Everyone wants to find true love. Some are willing to take chances even if there’s a huge probability of getting hurt in the end. Some are lucky enough not to experience heartaches on their journey of finding the right one. A few days ago, I had a heart-to-heart talk with someone about this topic. We…

Another Half of The Year Has Passed
It’s the 16th of June today. As I glance back on the previous months of my year, a lot of things had happened. It was a roller coaster ride of emotion where drama, misunderstanding, and heartaches were the highlight of the first three months of 2021. January where my sense of contentment became stronger. I…

5 Habits Why People Don’t Worry About The Future
Most of us have this habit of fussing about the things that might happen the next day, week, month or year. I don’t say that it’s bad to make plans ahead. But some people don’t worry about the future because it can damage the present, which makes a lot of sense. Worrying too much is…

5 Reasons Why You Don’t Settle For Less than You Deserve
Let’s say you got a job, started a business or your single status now turned to in a relationship. Everything seems right at first but as time pass by, you’re beginning to doubt yourself, the career you have right now as well as the person you’re with. There are so many things going on in…

Simple Ways To Live A Happy Life
With all the hardship that is happening around us, it’s impossible to always look on the brighter side of it. Sometimes, we just want to stay inside our room, let be absorbed by the darkness and never deal with any more dilemmas that outside can bring us. However, losing hope is a sign of defeat.…

How One Good Laugh Can Make Your Day Great
As I typed this post this morning, I realized how one good laugh can make people’s day great. Although there’s a small thing that made me upset, it didn’t stop me from laughing today. There’s this one comedian that we’re being interviewed as I watched the television. He made a joke about woman’s intuition and…

Being Hopeful In Times Like This
Yesterday was an Easter Sunday, the second time when people didn’t get a chance to go to church and honor the rising of the Lord from the dead. Last night, I watched the live Holy Mass on the television and the homily focused on being hopeful. The priest also mentioned that there is always a…

How I Spent the First Day of Holy Week This Year
It’s Monday and Holy Week has started today. I woke up around 1 am this morning and I can’t go back to sleep so I decided to get up and make a cup of hot chocolate. While waiting to feel sleepy, I read a couple of articles online. Around 4 am, I fell asleep and…

The Change Always Starts With You
Last two weeks ago, I found out my current body weight and the result made me so frustrated because I didn’t gain that much in the last 5 years. I’m underweight even if I eat normally and do exercise from time to time. I guess my effort isn’t enough. I have to work harder to…

The Advantages Of Living With Your Parents Being An Adult
Can you still remember the days where you can’t wait to leave home, get a job and do whatever you want in life without your parents’ approval? Mine, it feels like it was just yesterday. And every time I looked back on those times, I just chuckle and sigh. Most of you probably are already…

A Lazy Rainy Sunday
It’s been raining for a week now and I can’t help but hate this kind of weather. Because aside from it’s cold to take a shower, it also makes me feel lazy to do the things I should be doing. Yet, here I am, got the time to make an update here on my blog.…

I’m Figuratively Screaming Inside!
Hi, everybody! I’m back! The last time I made an update here was last year, the 25th of December, Christmas Day. I admit that I was trying to make myself busy doing something else since the day I stopped writing here and it took me a month or so to figure out that I don’t…

My Not So Special Christmas Day
It’s been a while since I made an update here on my blog and honestly, I miss it! Lately, I’m busy with the project that I mentioned before and I still can’t tell if it’s working well or not, it’s too early to say something about that. Anyway, let me share with you how I’m…

Say Hi To My Birth Month, December
Happy first of December everyone! It’s now my birth month and I consider this a very special time for me even if I don’t celebrate my birthday. This is the season of preparing for the coming year and just like the book, it’s about to close its chapter. A lot of things have happened these…

Goodbye, Facebook. Hello, Real World
And the day has come! Yes, today at exactly midnight, I’ll already put my Facebook account in the trash (not literally, of course). I decided to delete it because of so many reasons. This is just my preference and don’t worry, I’m not going to convince you to do the same. I have had this…

Things I’ve Learned (and Still Learning) From Exercising
When it comes to my wellness, I try to stay fit and healthy by consuming the right kind and amount of food, and by doing exercise. If you’ve read my post about me starting a 15 days challenge workout, then you’ll know how eager I am to do it. Today is the third day of…

Don’t Try Too Hard
Trying too much to be in someone else’s life without their willingness to embrace us is such a pathetic thing to do. The same idea when we try so hard to impress other people so we can receive praise from them. And aim for overnight success by tiring ourselves to death. I, myself, sometimes guilty…

Good Things Are Just Around The Corner
It’s tough to stay positive especially in times like this where each of us is adjusting with our daily lives. Some changed their working places from offices to homes, shifted careers without any plan of doing it in the first place and struggle to keep up with saving money. Yet, no matter what we’re facing right…

A Well-Organized Day For Me
I woke up before my alarm rings and I got up at around 5 am. My phone battery was below 10 percent before I charged it this morning. I had a few minutes to chat with my SO before he goes to sleep. I was already having a cup of hot chocolate at that time.…

The First Day Of My Body Pain Update
06/19/2022 It’s been 5 days since I started getting back to exercising again. I thought I’ll be able to maintain the weight I desired and reached but I was wrong. I focused too much on controlling my diet and skipped working out. Now that I lost 2 kilograms, I have to gain them back again.…

One Day At A Time
I woke up this morning feeling a bit blue. I didn’t eat anything last night, just a glass of milk. Like the other days, I opened my eyes around 4 am and left a ‘good morning’ message to my SO. We haven’t talked that much this week since we were both busy. I decided to…

Everything Is Going To Be Alright
The year 2020 is not yet over but I can say that I already learned a lot of things when it comes to family matters, friendship, career, relationship and in other aspects of life. This is probably the period where I encountered situations I thought I can’t handle. Indeed, you can only figure it out…

The Kind Of Weekend I Need
Today is Saturday and it’s my Mom’s day-off again. The month of November flies so fast and we’re already on its second week. I woke up at around 4 am and stayed in bed for 5 more minutes just because I want to. When I’m finally done making my bed, I made a hot chocolate…

Don’t Lose You; Love Yourself
You should learn how to love yourself first before you learn how to love others. Some are becoming selfless because they tend to give all the love they have including the ones that belong to themselves when in the first place, it’s not necessary. Because when people finally leave you, you might get lost out…

Simple Things That Make Me Happy
I decided to write about the things that make me happy because I want to remind myself how lucky I am than other people. If you read my post about what I am grateful for, I can say that this is the continuation of that article. Every morning when I wake up, I make sure…

A Day Full Of Realization
This morning, I read one of my sister’s message telling me that the wind and rain were so strong in Manila. They’re experiencing typhoon signal number 3 since yesterday and last night, the weather condition got worse. We’re already used to this kind of situation because yearly, we’re encountering at least 20 typhoons, almost the…

Stop Complaining And Make A Change
The habit of complaining about your life is probably part of being a human. I’m not sure how it can benefit you yet, all I know is it doesn’t do any good to anyone. It’s not only a waste of time but it also can make other people have a negative mindset. I believe that…

What’s New With This Year’s Halloween Celebration?
Happy Halloween everybody! I know that there will be a lot of changes in this year’s celebration of Halloween due to the pandemic. However, we shouldn’t allow it to stop us from having enjoyment!

Going Through The Darkness Before Experiencing The Light
There’s an enormous probability that each of us had been through rough times. And some may still be in that phase of life as of the moment. Some days, we feel awful about the past, reminding ourselves about the bad decisions we made and think that if we didn’t take that road, we might be…

Evening Routines That Will Make Your Life and Work Productive
A complete 7-9 hours of sleep in a day is impossible for some of us. Of course, we all want to get ample rest after a long exhausting day at work, right? However, many distractions keep us awake and never let us give a break-even for a couple of hours. Sometimes, we know that we…

Life Lessons My Mother Told Me
I think most of us became who we are because of our parents, especially our mothers. In a typical family setup, the mother is always the one who stays home, prepare the food and take care of the kids. We may not see it when we were still young but as we grow older, we’ll…

My Blogging Experience So Far
I want to begin this post by saying thank you to all of my readers and followers who believe that my writings are worth the time. Haha. You are one of the main reasons why I’m still here, updating on my blog from time to time. As you all know, I easily get weary and…

Why Not Make An Update
I have supposedly updated yesterday but I was still not feeling well. I still had a fever when I woke up this morning but I decided to take a shower because I want to get refreshed. And I was right! I had bread with peanut butter and a cup of hot chocolate before I took…

Another Normal Day
I slept last night at around 7 pm and I think that was the reason why I woke up at 10 pm, I just went back to sleep again. And again, I woke up at 1 am today and decided to scroll a few minutes on my Facebook newsfeed when suddenly, one of my friends…

Tricks That Will Surely Help You Save Money
It’s always been my plan to write something about saving money and finally, the long wait is over. Saving money is one of the hardest things that we think we can do especially nowadays where most of the transactions are online and cashless. Even before this pandemic existed, most of us use credit cards to…

Not So Bad For My First Pancake
I tried to make a pancake this afternoon while my sister was having a nap and my Mom was busy in the garden. I was a bit hesitant at first because my sister was supposed to be the one who’ll make it but I wanted to try something new! So, I got an egg from…

Wake Me Up When September Ends
The month of September is about to end and obviously, I didn’t plan to just sleep for this whole month and wait for someone to wake me up when it ends. As you may know, my title is from a song from the early 2000s which I haven’t heard since I was in high school.…

I Tracked My Phone Usage And Here’s What Happened
After watching a Netflix documentary about social media called The Social Dilemma, I can honestly tell you how paranoid I am now when it comes to using my phone and visiting my social media accounts. I’m guilty of overusing most of my time on my phone after finishing all of my tasks in a day…

How To Fix Misunderstanding And Prevent It From Happening Again
I’ll give you a heads up now; I’m not really great at giving any advice when it comes to relationships because I, myself, is also having trouble dealing with my own issues. Most of the things I’ve written here are based on my experiences and ideas, sometimes from the people that I know too. We are all…

You Better Stop Wasting Your Time
We all have 24 hours in a day to spend and in that case, we’re all equal. However, why do some of us still complains about not having enough time to do what we need in a single day? What do we think causes the problem of why we can’t finish the job we needed…

Reasons Why I Started This Blog
In today’s post, I want to share with you what are my reasons why and how I started this blog. I read some blogs about how they begin their journey in blogging, what are their reasons, so on and so forth. So, I thought this is a fun topic to discuss with you although I…

Pasta For The First Time
Yesterday, we celebrated my Mom’s 64th birthday. We were supposed to do it this coming weekend instead since she has work and usually gets home around 3 in the afternoon. However, since me and my sister are just working from home, we decided to drop by at the market after eating lunch to buy ingredients…

Is Lying Different From Not Telling?
I’ve been thinking a lot about this question these past few days and it bothers me in a good kind of way. Reasoning with my thoughts exercises my brain and it also allows me to think much broader aspects. We all have different ways of expressing ourselves to others about something and knowing your thoughts…

Things That I Am Grateful For
I’m aware that there will be bad days that’ll get in my way and not every day is a good day. It’s a reminder for me that bad days do exist, not only the good ones. So as much as I want to bring positivity to everyone every single day, I can’t do that. I’m…
