Honestly, Iām just glad itās your birthday so I get an excuse to post these photos š
These are from our recent Hong Kong and South Korea trip, and theyāre some of my favorites. Itās because of you I get to enjoy nice things and make memories like theseāand somehow also get budol-ed into āwalking distanceā adventures.
To the president of the walking distance budol club, thank you for all the adventures, planned or not. Thank you for being my sister, my constant, and someone I can always count on.
Happy Birthday, Sissy!
I hope everything your heart wishes for comes true.
Love you always š
Happy birthday, Daddy!
I don't have a recent photo of us but this was taken a year ago, and I really miss moments like this. When youād take us to places youāve been before (which is basically everywhere!! since youāve explored almost every province in the Philippines already.)
Youād share your stories with us, and even with your grandchildren. Weāre all grown up now, and your grandchildren are growing up so fast. I just wish we had more of these days together. (but adult life is so busy and hard)
I hope you know youāre never alone. You have all of us who love you so much. Iām always wishing you good health, happiness, and more time to make memories like this again.
32 years into this lifeā¦and learning to be okay with not having it all figured out.
Thereās a quiet kind of peace in realizing I donāt need all the answers right now.
Just the willingness to keep going, and the grace to give myself time. š

SVT Right Here in film šļø
Some memories feel softer when theyāre captured on film.
A little grain, a little blur, but the feeling stays clear.
Right here, in the moment. š

Wedding of Jan Joseph & Katrina Mae
š Mr. & Mrs. Abenoja š
Iāve known these two since elementary school, and watching their love start in college and grow all the way into adulthood has been something so special to witness. š„¹š¤
Finally, after 13 years together, youāre stepping into this next chapter side by side as people who are stronger, wiser, and more in love than ever.
Your journey has always been filled with patience, growth, laughter, and so much genuine love. Iām so grateful to have seen it all unfold.
So proud of you both, @jsqqrd@meowkaaaat ! Hereās to forever, to choosing each other every day, and to the beautiful life youāre building together. šāØ
Never got to post these pictures last year. š¤·āāļø
Swim in the crowd of people
If your feet donāt touch the ground, fly
When you canāt sleep, shine
Donāt forget, if you fall youāre still a shooting star
(even if you fall shooting star)
Over the electric line over the roof of the buildings
In a blink your yesterday is behind
Into the sunlight the awaited moonrise
Even if the morning comes donāt ever melt
Happy Vernon Day!

I was right there on the SVT Right Here tour in Bulacan last year. Always grateful for the experience and the friends I enjoyed it with. š
@luc_dangatan Sheās 9 today, which feels just right for a girl whoās practically collecting her nine lives already. šø
From Hallow & Weenie to Tora the Explorer, and now Kuro & Kokoro, sheās loved every kitty who crossed her path and theyāve all loved her right back. And when there isnāt a real cat around, sheās got her meow-meow plushies, her beloved Mofusand characters, and of course her cat headbands to keep the feline energy strong.
Keep shining, keep growing, and keep proving that cats arenāt the only ones who land on their feet. Happy 9th, our little cat-girl in training. š
Just got this developed last week. It's from a disposable camera I used on my 30th birthday in Japan.
I've been loving this song for a while now "One Way to Tokyo" by HONNE and it made me feel that my 30s is like a one-way journey forward through change, through distance, through love and through moments of uncertainty, growth and waiting. Time moves whether I'm ready or not and some things only make sense when I look back. But through it all, God has been constant in guiding, providing and reminding me that every step, every detour, and every delay has a purpose.
I'm learning to trust His timing, to embrace the unknown, and to hold onto what matters. Like these photos, like love and like faith, some things will take time to develop but are always worth it.
Here's to 31, to faith, to growth, to love and to all the memories still waiting to be made. š
Finally had some time to sit down and review my journals for the past 8 years (?) š¤Æ Some days I write and some days I don't and that's okay. One thing, I've learned from having journals for the past years is that life is all about the moments we choose to cherish. Writing helps me reflect on growth, challenges, and blessingsāeven in the simplest days. Itās not about perfection but about capturing the journey.
Grateful for these little time capsules of my life. š #rheedablejournal
