Wrapping Up June 2025

Hello again, Anjventuristas 💛 I blinked and somehow—it’s already the end of June. I know I haven’t been as visible lately. Life has been equal parts whirlwind and whisper. Between night shifts, OSCE prep, being a daughter, a fiancée, a nurse, a human trying to hold it all together—some days I just needed to step away from the noise and sit with myself. Sit with silence. Sit with God. Photo by…

Day 24 : The Patronus – A Memory I Call On When I Feel Lost

A Patronus isn’t cast from logic.It’s cast from memory—specifically, one so powerful, so joyful, it breaks through even the darkest spells. And I think we all have our own Patronus memories.The ones we return to in quiet moments.The ones that whisper, “You’ve felt joy before. You’ll feel it again.” Because sometimes, hope doesn’t come from having all the answers.It comes from remembering that…

Day 23 (Late Post – June 24): The Knight Bus – Finding Grace in Chaos

The Knight Bus never arrives calmly. It barrels in.Off-kilter.Out of nowhere.And it doesn’t ask you if you’re ready—it just shows up when you’re stranded. It doesn’t give you a smooth ride.It gives you a way forward—jolts, sharp turns, and all. That’s what healing has looked like for me lately.Not graceful. Not linear.But somehow, still… a way through. Continue reading Day 23 (Late Post –…

Day 22 (Late Post – June 23): The Daily Prophet – Rewriting the Headlines of My Life

In the wizarding world, The Daily Prophet controlled the narrative. It decided who was praised.Who was feared.Who was seen—and who was erased. And isn’t that familiar? Because sometimes in this life, it feels like someone else has been writing our headlines.Someone louder.Someone harsher.Someone who doesn’t understand the full story—but prints it anyway. Continue reading Day 22 (Late Post –…

Day 21 (Late Post – June 22): The Invisibility Cloak – What I’ve Hidden to Protect Myself

There’s a reason the Invisibility Cloak is one of the most powerful magical items in the wizarding world. It doesn’t make you louder.It doesn’t make you stronger.It simply allows you to move unseen—to protect yourself in a world that doesn’t always feel safe. And maybe that’s why it feels so familiar to me. Because long before I ever heard of Hogwarts,I had learned how to disappear. Continue…

The Kingdoms of Ash and Echoes

— A Parable for a Restless World Song to play while reading: “Saturn” by Sleeping at LastScripture: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.” – Matthew 5:9 Once, in a world not unlike our own, there were three great kingdoms—not defined by rivers or flags, but by how they remembered pain. The Kingdom of Iron was proud and unyielding. Its people believed that…

The Garden of Two Suns

There once was a garden that wasn’t the largest or most admired, but it had something rare—rhythm. It wasn’t loud about its beauty. The flowers didn’t bloom all at once. The trees didn’t shout with shade. But the garden lived. It healed. It fed the tired and held space for the wounded. The caretakers of this garden knew it like the lines in their hands—what bloomed when, what wilted why, and…

Day 20 (On Time): The Room of Requirement – Giving Myself What I Need

The Room of Requirement only appears when someone truly needs it. It doesn’t open when you want to impress someone.Not when you’re performing.Not even when you’re forcing yourself to “power through.” It shows up when your soul whispers,“I can’t keep doing this like before. I need something else.” And maybe that’s the most magical thing about it:It doesn’t ask what you deserve.It simply gives…

Day 19 (Late Post): Platform 9¾ – The Life I Almost Didn’t Choose

When Harry stood at Platform 9¾ for the first time,he had no proof it would work. No map.No instructions.Just a trolley, a ticket, and trust. He ran toward a wall that might break him—and somehow, it became the doorway to everything. That moment lives inside me, too.Because so many times in my life, I stood in front of the unknownwith nothing but hope and trembling belief. And I almost turned…

Day 18 (Late Post): The Forbidden Forest – The Fears I’ve Faced

In the wizarding world, the Forbidden Forest was never just trees and shadows.It was a place they were told not to go.Too dark. Too dangerous. Too unknown. But eventually, everyone had to enter it—at least once.To prove something.To survive something.To face something. And so did I. 🌘 My Personal Forbidden Forests I’ve walked into my own Forbidden Forest more times than I can count. • The…

Day 17 (Late Post): Lumos – The Light I Carry Now

There’s a simple spell in the wizarding world—not for defense, not for invisibility, not for power.Just one word: Lumos.And it brings light. It doesn’t chase away the night.It doesn’t erase the storm.But it gives you just enough light to see what’s in front of you. Sometimes that’s all we need—a flicker.A whisper of hope.A hand on our back saying, “Keep going, even now.” 🌒 A Time I Had to…

Day 16 (Late Post): The Mirror of Erised – What I Truly Long For

We all have mirrors we avoid.Not the ones that show us our faces—but the ones that show us our hearts. In the world of Hogwarts, the Mirror of Erised doesn’t reflect what we look like.It shows what we long for the most, even if we don’t have the words for it. I used to think I knew what that would be for me.Success, maybe. Or safety. Or a quiet little life where everything is finally figured…

Day 15 (Late Post): The Half-Blood Truth – Being Both/And

In the wizarding world, the term “half-blood” carried weight.It meant belonging to two worlds.Walking between them.Not quite one. Not quite the other. Both—and neither. And for so long, I felt like that too. • Both brave and deeply anxious• Both capable and exhausted• Both independent and longing for home• Both a Filipina through and through, and someone shaped by years away• Both a healer and…

Day 14 (Late Post): The Sorting Hat Revisited – Who Am I Now?

Another entry from this overdue little vault of reflections. I’ve posted a few of these entries all in one go—not because I lost interest, but because life, in all its real and raw complexity, demanded my presence elsewhere. But there’s something poetic about posting them now—after the dust has settled, after the candles have been blown out, after the silence that follows celebration. Because…

Day 13 (Late Post): House Points – What Really Deserves Recognition

Still catching up, but catching up with heart. I know I’m posting several days’ worth of reflections in one go—but isn’t that just life sometimes?We don’t always get to process things in real-time.But that doesn’t mean the reflection is less meaningful. If anything, it feels deeper now—because I’m writing these with the fullness of hindsight and heart. So for Day 13, let’s talk about something…

Day 12 (Late Post): Arithmancy – The Numbers That Matter

Before we begin… a small explanation. If you’re reading this as part of the recent entries I’ve just posted in one go—thank you for being here.I’ve held these reflections in my heart and drafts for days, waiting for the time, energy, and stillness to bring them to life. That window finally opened, and I don’t know when it will again.So here they are—gathered all at once, like stars finally…

Day 11 (Late Post): The Time-Turner – If I Could Go Back

Before anything else, a little honesty… Yes, I know—I’m posting several entries all at once today.Life lately has been moving faster than my ability to write in real time. Between work, caring responsibilities, and making space for personal quiet, these posts ended up living in my drafts longer than I hoped. But I also know this:I don’t always get to choose when I’m free. So while I have the…
