Hello guys, this is Eisa. I want to wish you all “Eid Mubarak!”.

To commemorate the occasion, we did a little funshoot in our home with me wearing kandoora and shal headdress, the national clothing for males in United Arab Emirates, our host country.

Hello guys!

Mag seryoso din minsan

what ya looking

I was looking for props, grabbed this instead… my mom’s favourite ghee

Stay home. Stay safe.

Flex ko lang ang photo-op ko almost 6 years ago sometime in October 2014, with Itsoura.

October 2014

This was before I met my now ex-husband. Age: 32 years old.

I am so happy with these photos and how it turned out. Talagang request ko kay Josephus I want the photos to be as natural as possible, and he delivered!

This one below is my most favourite. Yung natural lighting effect ng sunshine striking my hair, I feel it’s magical. Echos haha.

On the other hand, I have no regrets with the decisions I made. I even wrote about our engagement in my old blog here.

It was tough but I made it through and I’m alive. I am grateful to God of gifting me a child and I named him Eisa. Ipinangako ko sa sarili ko na papalakihin ko siya ng maayos, he is loved, he belongs and I will aide him in building his character.

I remain me. I learned a lot about myself along the way.

I had to endure the mental stress as aftermath of the collapse of my marriage. I still feel the pain kahit 3 years na ang nakakaraan, so I can’t get myself to watch the latest Korean drama na “The World of the Married” tagos sa puso ko charing hehe.

Though I had come to a realization that each time I stumble into hurdles, I feel it’s a revelation of either the two: (1) a lesson to strengthen my character, or (2) learn in letting go and believe that there’s something else for me.

The first year was difficult, slowly medyo naging okay-okay na as time passes. I heard somewhere, time is the best medicine. I have learned that I don’t have to please everyone. I ate to my heart’s content. And I indulged myself in watching Korean and Chinese dramas for my entertainment in the evenings and weekends. I actually took a liking of learning Hangul and Mandarin in the near future.

Periodically, I pause and savor my present. Life is beautiful.

My next personal goal is to build my core strength and achieve a 24-inch waistline. But rather than being skinny, I desire to be strong. No crash dieting, only gradual change into my eating habits and re-introducing workout routines. And I love my waist trainers, and improving my digestive health.

I wish me a happy me and a happy you. 🙂

So I have been wanting to store homemade burger patty recipes for my Filipino palate, something economical, masarap at puedeng pang negosyo (in case lang I go that route later), na somehow though you can have a little mark-up ay affordable pa rin.

Homemade Beef Burger by yours truly 🙂

So base sa aking pagsasaliksik sa youtube ‘wink 😉 heto ang aking personal preference when it comes to my burger patty. Take note maraming available na iba-ibang ingredients from various resources… heto lang yung talagang pasok sa panlasa ko.

Because it’s a keeper for me and I want to share also to those who are interested that’s why I decided to post it here.

Give it a try and I hope you like it too.
