  • Was cleaning my hard drives and saw this photo among the thousands I’ve accumulated over the past couple of years. This is me trying to pose for a picture somewhere in Jiufen in New Taipei City, Taiwan. Just to clarify, I was there first! When this pandemic is over, one thing is for sure—people will be more respectful of personal spaces. 😂 #PinayTraveller #PinayTravelStories #newnormal

  • Day ___. I spent a good 3 minutes staring at how the breeze made the curtains dance, creating an impromptu shadow play right before my eyes. The air has been heavy with rain that wouldn’t fall. The humidity is enough to drive me insane. This afternoon’s weather report said a storm is coming to our corner of the world, threatening downpours and gusty winds. To be honest, I welcome the thought. The sound of rain and thunderstorms usually lull me to sleep. #quarantinevignettes

  • Day 50ish. I haven’t been taking photos of myself lately, not even with my family. But I wanted to see what I look like during this quarantine. So here I am. Like Rapunzel’s, my hair seems to grow an inch each day! So I’ve kept it in a bun the past 2 months. I’ve also had several health issues—shortness of breath and hives among them. The constant thought of getting sick and ending up in hospital robbed me of sleep for several weeks. The anxiety overshadowed my usual sense of optimism. And that in itself was very crippling. For days images of lying alone on a hospital bed haunted me. I’d wake up in the middle of the night, unable to pacify the unsteady beating of my heart. It felt like I was drowning. I had to do something. I had to keep my mind distracted! So I took out my camera and started taking photos of everything. Better to fill my mind with images that give comfort rather than cause fear, images of hope rather than despair. Eventually, I eased out of my crippling mental confinement. I finally consulted doctors to address my health issues. No, my hives were not symptoms of COVID-19 but were triggered by anxiety. The shortness of breath was caused by anemia. I was prescribed medication that eventually made me feel better. And little by little, I healed from within. So here I am. On day 50ish, I am okay. And I can’t wait for the story of the new world to begin. #quarantinevignettes

  • 3rd Day of May, nth day in quarantine-- my husband's birthday. Baked him a banana cake but it was the little one who thoroughly enjoyed it. Pictures don’t lie. #quarantinevignettes

  • DAY WHATEVER. Before the world turned upside down, we already had a tiny edible garden from which we harvested eggplants, tomatoes, chilis, and lemongrass. We also had basil, calamansi, and jackfruit. We realized just how important it is to have a garden of our own during the ECQ. So we planted some pechay (the only seeds we could find at the supermarket). Will also plant coriander tomorrow. Nakakaaliw 'pag tumutubo 'yung mga tanim. Para kang nanonood ng milagro. #quarantinevignettes

  • Backtracking to Day 29. We will always remember Uncle Vic's big booming voice. That and his generosity. He died a hero, offering his own life to save others. He will be missed. #QuarantineVignettes
