Love Match - Virgo and Libra

Mutable Earth (Virgo) and Cardinal Air (Libra)
When dating, Libra likes Virgo's unhurried approach, since it gives them plenty of time to mull over the romantic potential. Virgo admires Libra's clear mind and drive for balance in all things. Both are aware of dating dos and don'ts, and will try to show up on time, make thoughtful suggestions and offer love trinkets at appropriate times. They're a picture of refinement, if somewhat cool in their show of affection. Virgo likes to keep their business private, so Libra will need to curb the tendency to tell all.


Dates are a chance to talk, which they both love to do, to the point of talking over each other. But Libra glides easily over topics, while Virgo seeks to analyze and come up with precise thinking on the matter at hand. Here's where they run into conflicts. Virgo's analytical mind trying to wrangle Libra's thoughts are like the lilliputians tying down Gulliver. With a Virgo mate, Libra gets to see life from a different perspective -- from the ground. Libra resents being forced to focus on the minutiae, and Virgo finds Libra's lightness and devil-may-care attitude frustrating. But when these two are in sinq, they've got the big picture and details covered, and both benefit. Virgo helps Libra plan out the steps to realize a dream that's still just a concept. Libra lifts Virgo out of the trap of micro-thinking, to offer sweeping vistas. But when life goals are different, and they're ready to move on, it's hard to shift the focus together.


Virgo makes sure the household is kept orderly, and Libra supplies the artful finishing touches. Libra knows how to create an atmosphere of beauty, like flowers or just the right decor accents. Virgo's desire for calm is compatible with Libra's need for a serene nest. In the quest for wholeness, Virgo sets a daily example for Libra that has a grounding effect on this airy character. And Libra reminds Virgo to stop working and enjoy some leisure time. Virgo grows irked if Libra is too lazy or can't join their train of thought. If little nitpicky things become settled behaviors, the relationship can get caught in a negative loop. There are challenges here, but also the potential to enjoy domestic harmony and a refined, clean, high-minded lifestyle.

Angry Birds Cupcakes for Ten-Ten

Few weeks ago, I decided to make Enzo's cupcakes for his upcoming birthday (yeah, like I can bake, huh?) I'm a frustrated baker myself and even so afraid to ignite the oven. Haha! But I have to overcome my fear, so with the help of my officemate and some encouragement from the other people around me, I managed to work my way up from turning on the oven, baking a pre-mixed brownies for a start, and making my 1st very own cupcake for my godchild's 7th birthday, Ten-Ten (My BFF asked me to do it since I'm trying to learn how).
Though it wasn't for Enzo yet, I'm a bit proud of myself being able to create such masterpiece (Hehe, atleast for me!). I've less than a month to go and I'll be making Enzo's cupcakes already (and the main cake, hopefully) :D
