Ang reunion na natutuloy. Guess who just woke up and who is always prepared #PSBAFriends #16yearsAfter https://www.instagram.com/p/CJRGlKWrUfZD52dfraEsx9QQ4HHjPGIKY0Ywbc0/?igshid=11qahw9gtqq3s

It was a Saturday morning, we just came home from Mama’s confinement. Her cancer came back at Stage 4 that spread in her lungs and bones. Only morphine can stop the pain. She’s starting to lose her grip and has difficulty talking. She asked me to get a paper and pen. She wanted to write the recipe for menudo, my youngest sister has been asking for it. She struggled with the pencil so I said she can just dictate it to me. She got frustrated with getting words out and then she cried. She said she’s sorry that she can’t be a Mama to us now. In the midst of that pain, she would still place our needs above hers. Happy birthday Ma! I still don’t know how to cook menudo but I cook edible foods now (and that’s a feat considering my state 11 years ago). https://www.instagram.com/p/CI8A9C6LGj5JIMLoHGnTW-6KJVafWO4BFxe6wQ0/?igshid=ovwc6x3q7lcs

Back when travel is still a thing and a take-away €5 mojito @ 2pm is goodness on earth... that is after (drunk) tasting all variants of limoncello 📸 @lui_flo #TabernaNearTreviFountain (at Fontana Di Trevi-Roma) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFi35FQh0NwXdQaTRYCOhijiWMJRaaxJn_Mt980/?igshid=p5k6rb8wlqgu

Last Friday’s coffee chat with GBO pips made me put on my makeup, blowdry my hair and wear earrings AKA look presentable in video. Also showcasing my failed, DIY full-on bangs. @ann_mnlgd this is how you document the session (see the jawline?) 😆 #QuarantineMadeMeCutMyHair https://www.instagram.com/p/CE64uj6BDD6g0Hm56kfRbcdmwizOJVVdBwNLYs0/?igshid=rim5h99jv3rm
