The Apple Pencil, for me, is thus far the best stylus (electric/bluetooth connectivity) for me. Maybe because it is perfectly made to partner with the ipad Pro. I've tried connecting it with the ipad mini to no avail.

So how do you store the apple pencil? I have the 12.9" ipad pro. I love it. I can draw with it. The screen is big, I don't have difficulty reading my emails, my books, my pages, keynote and numbers. The downside, it's way to heavy to carry around just about anywhere. So I look for computer bags that would fit it. Problem solve. But what about the pencil?

There are a lot of straps with carry case for pencils, bags that lets you put the pencil bare (without the box that it came with). But I don't like it. I see the pencil as a sensitive item that gets destroyed easily once it's not properly stored. Here is a photo of the pencil inside the box.

Here is what's inside.

Looks sensitive right? I have been looking around for cases to carry this sensitive thing. But so far, the best one is the box that it came with. Hard, sturdy, doesn't flatten when inside my bag.

I know, I know, there are a lot of sleeves for the pencil. I chose not to buy them because the pencil won't fit inside the box if it has a sleeve. So I let it be.

Will there be an ipad mini pro? I'm hoping there would be.

After You by Jojo Moyes

I've told you before about the book "Me Before You" by Jojo Moyes and how I could not put it down. Well here is another book by the same author entitled "After You". This tells of the events that followed. I was skeptical at first to read this, thinking it might not be as good as the first book I read. But this is still a good one. If you're the type who wonders what happened next, go ahead and try this one.

As for me, although this is a good one, I like the first book. But then again, we have different take on things. Go ahead and try this one out.

Mighty Scotch Tape

At a young age, M had a possessive quality with his toys. He has plenty of toys but there were those that he really liked to play with. But like all things, they break. And when that happens, he cries.... a lot... with a face that can move your soul to bits and pieces. 

So it is during these times that we happen to show him the power of fixing things with the most handy of all items in the house... the scotch tape. I'm sure almost all, if not all, of you have this lying around in your homes. We were able to fix Godzilla's tail several times, transformer's hands several times, affix the sword to some other toys so that he wouldn't have to keep putting it. 

And as he grew older, he himself would ask for the mighty sctoch tape. Doesn't cry on all broken things. He now knows there's a solution to everything.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year to everyone. Beaches were full during the holidays. Almost everyone at home is sick. We took a detour and stayed close to home. We hope you had a blast celebrating the new year.

Let me say au revoir to 2016 who has been full of surprises, disappointments, heartaches and lessons in life. Will 2017 be more difficult? Oh me oh my!
