10 things I love about Italy yeyeviray, June 8, 2011April 5, 2015 I cannot say I’ve captured Italy as a whole because each of its cities is rich in its own history, culture, cuisine, and beauty and I’ve only been to three namely Milan, Venice and Rome.

Accepting their uniqueness yeyeviray, March 25, 2011April 5, 2015 When my eldest son, Marcus, started schooling, I did not ask for him to be an honor student because I just wanted him to enjoy the whole learning experience.

Embracing my OCness yeyeviray, March 8, 2011April 5, 2015 I have an Obsessive-compulsive disorder. No specialist confirmed it but I think that my control-freak attitude is enough evidence already.
