Work + Love = Happy Jess

Last year, was a great year for Philippine basketball.
And I was definitely glad about the achievements of our National Team. Being a basketball fan myself, I was really proud of who we are, and what we do on the court.

I felt so blessed to have witnessed most of it. Even felt more blessed in having two basketball events at work.

Don't even ask what I was feeling during those times. Glad. Overwhelmed. Giddy. Overjoyed. Everything positive. Doing something closest to my heart was the best thing ever.

Tautuaa, Galliguez Legit Ready for the Bigger Stage

(Edited)

Yesterday was a big day for PBA D-League.

It feted the battle of two undefeated sides: the Cagayan Valley Rising Suns and Hapee Fresh Fighters.

One had the generation's best amateur stars. The other had a cast of tested role players surrounding a giant centerpiece. Only one can claim the top spot and after the intense and highly-physical encounter, Cagayan emerged spotless.

Two names - among many promising young stars during that day - stood out: Moala Tautuaa and Abel Galliguez. They proved in the decisive win that they are ready for the bigger stage.

Make-Over by Jason and Mark of Team Lourd Ramos

Last year, I had a couple of milestones that I was really grateful for.
The opportunities that came deserved to be given full justice or else everything will come to waste.
I was overwhelmed by the blessings through friends that helped me along the way.
Especially to this couple that I actually just met a couple of months ago. Mark and Jason supported me in reaching my dreams. Truly real friendship was not measured by quantity but by quality.

These two made everything happened. And I am always grateful for them. They made me look always camera ready for my courtside reporting stints. Always fresh and classy for my VTRs, weddings, and work events.

Here are some of my make-overs last year and looking forward to more this year!

Long weekend due to the five day Papal Visit.
But I still have work. Good thing restdays fall on Sunday and Monday.
To satisfy my cravings for another beach adventure, I got my crew and head on to the south.

World, say hi to my weekend adventure crew and welcome to Aquaria!

When I buy clothes,I usually buy a complete outfit. All the time. So often, Im using the same set of outfit. Just like for this dress, I matched it with a red pumps and red clutch. First used for a wedding and now for a event. Learning: know how to mix and match.

"You turn my world upside down."

Different View.

Different perspective.

 




I had a lot of milestones last year. Milestones that caused changed. Major change. From head to toe. Inner to outer. Change. Change is constant. It is inevitable. Something that we need to embrace. Change for the better. Change for yourself.

Finally decided to post after almost two years.
Don't have so many words to say for this trip.
But here it is.
