On Its Own Domain… Yes!
It has been a while ever since I updated the version 1 of this site at the iblogger.com subdomain but, due to a twist of events (and with my friend Lily as the fairy who grants internet wishes) I finally got my own domain for a mere $0.99 . Nifty yes, and now I am...
When Giving Up is the Most You Can Do But Can’t
It seems that this blog has taken on the responsibility of chronicling my almost-daily woes of writing my academic papers and it's sort of apparent that there shall be more in store pertaining to my dilemmas. Today, as I have initially resolved to continue moving...
That Thing Called Motivation
Still, here I am, stumped with a paper and I have class tomorrow. Not so much because of that in which I have decided to skip attending for tomorrow's session but because my brain seems to be so dead tired from thinking and absorbing all the wreckage that is my...
The Problem of a Paper and Why Emotions Run High with It

This Blog in Brief
Dedicated to St. Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine nun and intellectual; and my personal patroness, Our Lady of Montserrat, this blog hopes to be a venue for expressing ideas about sundry things on faith (especially about aspiring
to live a Benedictine-inspired life & spirituality), culture, my sometimes (failed) attempts at art, and education. Also, I talk about my life here as a mental health advocate based on my experiences, so please bear with me.
BY THE WAY, the title of this blog is Portuguese for “daughter of Hildegard” and is pronounced as /filya ildegarda/ .

St. Hildegard of Bingen
Saint Hildegard of Bingen, in your humility and simplicity, you were raised up by God and given a special gift of supernatural knowledge about the deepest mysteries of Heaven and earth. Please pray for us, that we will always be open to the truths God reveals to us and that we will use that knowledge as the basis of all our choices in life.
Saint Hildegard of Bingen, pray for us.
Our Lady of Montserrat
O God, Giver of all good things, who didst choose Montserrat as a glorious Shrine for the Mother of thy only begotten Son, and through her intercession there hast granted favors without number to those who sought them there: bow down thine ears now to our petitions as we kneel and pray before Her image. Thou Who livest and reignest forever and ever.
