In this blog, he is everywhere.

Love snail mail?

Or a message at ohcarlaloo@gmail.com and we'll swap!

Did I miss anything?

Do you have something to recommend, like a recipe to make or an exhibit to visit? Did I post a work of yours without crediting you properly? Would you like me to help you promote a product or have me try out one? Are my random outbursts shocking you to the nth level?

Let me know what you think. Email me at ohcarlaloo@gmail.com and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. If not, I owe you a song and dance number.<3

Celebrating National Poetry Month!

Grab tea and maybe strong coffee. Let's go on a feels trip.

I usually talk about…

I'm a frustrated photographer (~~I now own an S95!~~ I bought my Canon 600D just last year. Yay! Now, to maximize its potential....), a romantic novel freak (though I do regret reading it more than I should), an absolute F. Sionil Jose fan, and often indulges in ~~texting~~ reading, singing in the shower and talking long walks.

My life has been irreparable since my father's death, 12 days after my birthday. One of my greatest accomplishments is I got to take him to a buffet that he absolutely enjoyed. He loved food more than anything, and it was a feat to satisfy his appetite, a feat I conquered. I miss him everyday.

I've successfully completed my training and am now part of the premier development bank in the country. I hope to start something great with it. If you're looking to make a difference, just email me.

This blog hopes to unite my two worlds: the development banker and the creative shit in me. It's a wish I am hoping to make come true. Don't you just love optimistic folks?

I am the proud granddaughter of Pedro Aguinaldo Susi. My father, Wilfredo Diaz Arriola, is my hero.

Treated ourselves to a glammed up day in a little park by Jersey City. Said it before, saying it again: we clean up nice. ❤️ #carlallan #34w2d

Baked #salmon with lemon pepper, #quinoa tossed with spring mix, 1/3 #avocado, a tablespoon of marinara, and a bit of sharp white cheddar. Not bad at all. Definitely repeating this plate. #gestationaldiabetes #gestationaldiabetesmeals #32w1d

Hopefully, only 8 weeks of this. So close and yet so far. #gestationaldiabetes #32w1d #almostthere

While driving home, we talked about the past weekend. He was quick to highlight that it was one of the most relaxing weekends we’ve had. We were surrounded by big love, all thanks to our big family. I sometimes wonder if he gets overwhelmed marrying into my clan, but seeing him take the time to bond with my cousins (who are like siblings to me) and our nephews and nieces (who are like our sons and daughters in practice), care for my aunts and uncles like our extra sets of parents, and lovingly cook for them whenever the opportunity arises, my heart fills up with so much gratitude and joy. I truly chose the right partner for this wonderful journey. Thank you for an eventful summer, 2019! Now, let’s finish this last trimester. ❤️ #carlallan #28w6d #laborday2019 #susienergize #lakebrant #lakegeorge

My favorite view. Thank you for a fantastic weekend. #carlallan #laborday

My dear loving husband, Another year has passed and it was nothing short of extraordinary. The lows were truly low — but the highs, we could not even come down from. This is a special birthday because it’s the last one we’ll have with just us two. While my nerves are shaking and my heart has its apprehensions, your calm and steady lead makes me confident that I have chosen the right partner for our newest adventure. You may soon be “papa”, “daddy”, “tatay” or any other father-like monicker to our little bb, but to me, you will always be “love of my life.” Happy birthday, my Allan. #carlallan
