Cecilia Borromeo was born in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. She now lives in Brussels, Belgium where she has been based for the past 7 years and where she has fulfilled her dream to become a scientist (currently: unemployed). Her poems and prose are widely read in her personal blog Clearcandy Daily (http://welcometoappleciders.blogspot.com) and dreams to get her work in print someday soon. She is known to write from the heart and is continuously training herself to meet her imagination so she can continue her love affair with words and to mold them to mean different things. She draws inspiration mostly from her own experiences and is in awe of her favorite poet, Mark Strand. After a tough day of surfing the net for jobs, she loves to lie in her couch for the rest of the evening thinking of chocolates and waffles. When not consumed by sugary thoughts, she enjoys diabetes literature, islet amyloidosis, reading poems out loud, learning the violin and dancing around the apartment. |
