Finding My Voice Again For those of you who know me well, I sing. I know how to sing, I'm not saying I'm an excellent singer, but I can carry a tune decently.  :) In the more than 15 years I was part of prestigious Philippine choirs, I practically have thousands of hours of singing logged in my personal history for sure. But after i left my last choir, the Philippine Madrigal Singers, I sang a lot less.  This pandemic has opened me up to the opportunity to sing a lot more. Especially with a supportive partner like B, I have no excuse to pursue my hobbies, interests and passions now more than ever.  Lost in Your Eyes by Debbie Gibson is one of my favorite songs. The lyrics and melody are so beautiful. And Debbie? She's the OG of 80's pop for me. Enjoy this one minute snippet made with love, straight from my sala.  :)                                                                                                                                            - Melo  

Revival Post!

 My last post was five years ago...five years! a lot has happened since then:  K is on his last year at UP after graduating from Community of Learners. Fine Arts, majoring in Visual Communications...an accomplishment for a kid with AS and ADHD! I was on the ketogenic diet for 2 years, I am now plant-based for health reasons. Traveled with B to Bali, and Europe--twice! Got a Nintendo Switch (B's present) and that has never left my sight since.  Bought a house near my office - so yay! Learned to surf, skate and bike better! Oh...and now surviving what seems to be the worst year for most Filipinos - 20-freakin'-20! I'm now motivated to publish content on all the wonderful platforms I own just for fun and more importantly to chronicle my life. Woohoo! So many stories to look back on and I am soooo back! -Melo
