Places to See: Mt. Cloud Bookshop, Baguio City

Personal Travel December 26, 2019December 26, 2019 by tarafrejas

If I remember correctly, I began including Mt. Cloud Bookshop in my Baguio City itinerary in 2016, after I heard from Mina that they were interested to carry some #romanceclass titles on their shelves. They used occupy a small space in the Casa Vallejo compound (Upper Session Road) and recently moved to a much bigger, much …

Book Cover Crazy: My 1st #RomanceClassCovers Experience

Personal Projects The Writing Community May 23, 2017 by tarafrejas

“Aga-aga daming feelings!” -Lo, 2017 ^ Now THAT is a pretty accurate description of what went down at the citruSnap studio last May 14, to be honest. There we were, six giddy authors (one of whom is also the photographer, the other, a book cover designer), two gorgeous models, and one badass stylist, trying our best …

When The Voices In Your Head Escape (AKA My First #RomanceClass Experience)

Personal The Writing Community October 3, 2015February 10, 2017 by tarafrejas

I forgot when exactly it was that Mina tagged me in a #romanceclass discussion thread on Facebook, saying because of certain things she knows about me, she’s inviting me to tag along to this little gathering. Of course I would have loved to join them, but I was new to the group and didn’t know the …

Them MIBF Shenanigans

Personal The Writing Community September 23, 2015 by tarafrejas

MIBF, or the Manila International Book Fair, is the country’s biggest and longest running book fair that usually happens in mid-September. As per usual, I am a relative n00b to this, and only attended it for the first time in 2013. A sort-of mistake, because I didn’t bring a lot of moolah with me so …

Fact: I have the most awesome friends. No, seriously. I may not be very well off (there’s a running joke in our office right now how we belong to borderline SEC D before payday, and it’s kind of true) but I have friends who are always there to y’know, make me look forward to every …

If you have not yet done so, do catch #SpaceSweepe If you have not yet done so, do catch #SpaceSweepers on Netflix! ❤ It's a sci-fi movie about a ragtag bunch of space debris cleaners who discover a genetically-altered child (believed to be deadly) during one of their cleaning sprees. Barely scraping by (because in 2092, Earth has gone to shit BUT CAPITALISM STILL EXISTS!), they decide to give the child up for a handsome amount of cash, but quickly realize the exchange isn't gonna be that easy. Not with emotional connections being forged and all life on Earth threatened.

.
Starts off a bit slow but escalates pretty quickly! The film is campy, fun, and emotional in parts (tissues needed by crybabies like me!), and it's just an amazing ride altogether. Bonus points for cast diversity and a witty nod to trans representation. Gotta give props to my boy Joongki for signing up for this film! Welcome back, Song!!! ❤
