… or should I say a grain of it?
Let me back up a bit and provide some context before I explain the salt thing.
I’ve been back here in Manila for almost two years now and I must admit that the first 1.5 years were difficult. I came back and stayed mostly for reasons that had [...]

I had my trial HAMU (it’s not a sangwich, silly. It’s hair and make-up) with Madge Lejano and her hairstylist, A (for Aaron) yesterday. It went well!
Generally, I tend to look like this:
Big eyes. Bangs. Eyebags (yuck). And a sharp jaw that is really hard to hide in pictures. A few marks here and there [...]
