Day 6: 5 Things I can Eat Every Day
Before I begin, let me just say that this is a highly unrealistic list…well, it is realistic though it is far from healthy. Of course, I can eat fruits, vegetables, bread, eggs, more of the essential foods, every day. But on the topic of food, I like to dream. Therefore, I’d like to revise the title to “5 Things I [Wish I could] Eat Every Day [Without Bodily...

Day 3: 8 Places I Want To Visit
In truth, I want to step foot on every inch of this earth. But to narrow it down to a list of 8 for the sake of this Tumblr challenge, here’s what made it:
1. Philippines - I don’t count my venture to this country at 2-years-old; I don’t remember any of it. It would definitely be nice to go to the house my mom grew up in and get better acquainted with my roots.
2. Italy - Ever...

Laptop - Again, superficial; see #2
