this little piggy: December 2011

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Wednesday, December 28, 2011. It's not about me at all. The city's still asleep as I head out to teach the 6:30am class :). It's been over a month since returning from training, and teaching has opened up a whole new world for me, beyond my imagination. No, I don't mean this in a fairy tale sense. Every time that I teach, I learn something new, discover something surprising, am amazed, and yes, even horrified. Because ...

this little piggy: January 2012

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Friday, January 27, 2012. Brown eyes and all. Like waves of the ocean, up and down, up and down.'. Not too different from practicing the yoga. Some days we are strong, the others, we take our time, and we breathe more, sometimes less - but always, always we breathe. You see, almost all my life, all 5'1 of me, would almost always receive the same adjectives over and over again. Tiny. Innocent. Little. I ...But the thing...

this little piggy: The sad case of coconuts

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2012/04/sad-case-of-coconuts.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Sunday, April 22, 2012. The sad case of coconuts. But while I am consumer of coconut products as warranted by my cultural culinary needs, my people's occasional stock and use of coconut milk is not what could lead to the possible ruin of coconut farms in the near future. I fear that the current craze over the health benefits of coconut will lead to really bad things. And the biggest consumers of this craze? I remember ...

this little piggy: November 2011

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Tuesday, November 29, 2011. It’s near the end of fall, I’m home comfortably in my own, warm bed, yet I find myself wanting to talk to my fellow trainees who are in their own warm beds. I’ve been fortunate enough to have my best friend visit for a couple of weeks and take my first class, too. It’s made the transition from training to home easier to bear. There is an easy road and a hard road. Don't hesitate to take ...

this little piggy: June 2011

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Monday, June 20, 2011. I'm a pretty private and shy person. The thought of people asking about my life is a bit overwhelming so I try to avoid those situations. Sure, I write on this very not-so-private blog, but I choose what I put on here. I've always been very particular at who and how I share my personal life with and the more recent years, I was even more protective of myself. Something didn't feel quite right.

this little piggy: Nostalgia

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2012/03/nostalgia.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Tuesday, March 6, 2012. Last night, after a long day, I crawled into bed and watched old clips of Sex and The City. I was simply too tired to make it to a yoga class so I had a date with my old self circa 1998. And a bit of 2004. I was excited, I was ready for a bit of nostalgia. Things I wasn't aware I was capable of. I wasn't as tough as I thought I was! With the entirety of the series unfolding in front of me in one...

this little piggy: May 2012

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Sunday, May 20, 2012. To which I bid adieu. As I look at this humble space the past few months, the silence is palpable. A few words here and there, barely an excuse for a blog. But not all is gone. I will still be around because your stories still need to be read, your world to be seen. So know that I remain your audience. And maybe, once I've passed a corner or two, I will be back a better version of me. As for cooki...

this little piggy: February 2012

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Tuesday, February 28, 2012. I've been staring at a blank page for awhile, not knowing what to write about. My mind lately has been a chaos of what ifs. Many drafts have come and gone, saved or deleted. So many words were within reach but none of them made enough sense for a writer's hand. Outside the pages, it wasn't any different - also a chaos of what ifs. Which were really fearful won'ts. Links to this post. I'm a h...

To the nameless faces we encounter. Thedailyletter i like [this] idea a lot. February 26, 2015. Would you “follow” @neuclare, if i asked nicely? A friend, met through times of grief, sorrow and darkness like never before. We touched base from time to time, but I don’t publish much. Still follow him. But cannot send him tweets, ’cause, when I send tweet to him, Twitter says,. Now, all but 2 or 3 precious folk, occasionally send a word. Fewer respond to my response. Is this deliberate? Are you still there?

this little piggy: August 2011

http://thislittlepiggywenttothemarket.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Hi, my name is La and I am addicted to Bikram yoga. Sometimes, I write about food too. Friday, August 26, 2011. On the other side: Why I want to be a yoga teacher. All Bikram yoga teachers have encountered this question at least once. Why do you want to become a Bikram Certified Teacher? When I filled out my application, I admit, I put some generic answer that I can't even remember anymore. Not because I didn't care, but because I didn't know my answer. But this week, I finally found the words. Years aft...
