Alessandra Bella's Christening Day

Bella is Michelle and Jomatt's little bundle of joy, and today she was baptized in St. Mary's Catholic Church in Dubai. Michelle is one of my closest and most trusted friend in Dubai. I am so happy for her to have Bella in her life. =) She will be a great mom for sure. My pregnant belly doesn't show yet in this picture, but my tiny little speck of a baby is there inside of me as we ate lots and lots of spaghetti and two cupcakes in ate Bella's reception =)

Crazy Cravings

Tuding's Pork Chop From Laguna

Rodic's Beef Tapa from UP Shopping Center

Arrozcaldo From Anywhere

I think one of the many challenges of being pregnant in the middle east is not being able to succumb to all the cravings of a preggers like me. Today I craved all of these, but how?

Crazy Cravings!

Another diary entry. There is no exagerration, i think of food 24 hours a day and it is so frustrating because I am stuck here in Dubai. I crave Filipino food the most. I dream about chicken joy, the crispy skin and yummy gravy. I want a whole bucket of chickenjoy thighs! I also want palabok and burger steak and peach mango pie ❤️❤️❤️

I watch KrisTv on pinoytv and man, i drooled at the sight of those mango trees. =( I really really want to go home. If only I wasn't queasy all the time, I would be on the next flight home and come back with 30 Kgs worth of all the food I crave. maybe in the middle of the second trimester! I hope so.

new Year 2014 in Dubai =)

im a flying mommy, i am lovable, and friendly. trustworthy. i am perky and bubbly. i love life for all its worth and friendship to me is sacred. i love to cook and eat. im a chocoholic and i love eating nutella like most people eat peanut butter. i love shopping like most girls. i love ballet shoes and cute bags and sunglasses. I love butterflies and stars. I love the beach. i love music but not as much as my husband does. i love blogs i have so many of them. i am loquacious and i love listening to other people's stories. what i am best is being a daughter. and always being a loving wife. and a cool sister.i am holding on to sanity and time differences has made me craZy. and dumb. aNd stupid.

I am obsessed with the idea of having my own business. I gave my aquarium to my cleaner Ravi. I love all shades of blue. I also love green and most of my clothes are black. I am always bonkers and I dont like smiling. I love gossip, but I gossip mostly about people i like. I am a sucker for friendship and love. I complain compulsively, and things slowly sink in to me. I have decided that I am grown up enough to choose my friends. I can count all of them with one hand excluding the f*ck you finger. I fantasize about bags I can only have in my dreams. Dreaming is free so if you see me staring, I am dreaming of love, life, and everything in between.

I like to blog. =) I blog about the places never in my life I dreamed I could ever visit. I blog about Food because I love , soo love to eat. I blog about every thing I think about because I want to get it off my head. I blog for when I cannot sleep. I blog and then I would read it again and again. I am probably the most avid visitor of my blog. Coz mostly, I blog for Me :) I love Korean Drama =) I watch it whenever I have free time. I would either be overwhelmingly happy or extremely sad after a series. I would sometimes go for a flight with eyes so sore of too much crying after a late night Kdrama.

I love to cook and eat. I make a really mean sinigang and sinampalukang manok. I make a yummy steak too. Cooking is therapy to me as cleaning is to some girls. I am very patriotic, and I love all things Filipino. I miss my family back home especially my nephew Vaughn. =)

I am an ex-pat who sleeps in different beds all over the world week after week after week.I am a wonderer and a wanderer. I can not be in one place for a very long time. I am a dreamer and my heart overflows with gratitude to the Lord for all my dreams are slowly coming true =)

I call myself riobebeh because i wish my name was longer.im named after rio diaz, the late comedian/ actress. if i could name myself, id call myself julia. im quite perky most of the time. but nowadays ive decided not to. i want to dwell in pain and boredom combined. my greatest weakness would be my family and my strength i draw from the Lord. Im blessed generally, with almost everything. my mom and dad are both loving. i have a goodlooking brother, i have the sweetest sister in the world, two loving godmoms, and friends i could die for. im a sucker for friendship and love.friendship to me is sacred, though I screw up a lot. i can easily be addicted to anything. addicted to shopping, a compulsive chocoholic and a freak for serieses. i can talk continuously for hours and hours you wouldnt even notice. i laugh at myself all the time and when i cry i cant stop. i love to walk out on people when called for. patience, is not one of my virtues. im most of the time a mess, but im a work in progress.
