The Day Mount Pulag Conquered Me
We have unfinished business, this mountain and I. I’m not much of a mountaineer. In fact, I’m not a mountaineer at all. I love the concept of hiking and sleeping in a tent in the middle of nowhere, but for the most part, that remained as such: a concept. But a coworker who was just...
Anawangin, Finally
It’s better late than never so, Happy Holidays everyone! Tried to stay away from the computer as much as I could during the holidays and I’m afraid I left this blog (and my 3, possibly 2 readers) sadly neglected. No matter, though, coz I have great stories and photos to make up for it!
LATE POST: The 26th VW Classic and Custom Car Show
K’s band, Radiostation, was invited to play during the 26th VW Classic and Custom Car Show, held a few weeks ago at the Fort Bonifacio Naval Grounds. It was the first time we attended a car show, and though the rain kinda dampened our spirits at first, seeing the classically beautiful vintage cars on display...
THIS JUST IN: Taylor Swift’s Safe And Sound (Hunger Games soundtrack)
I think I need more social networks to freak out on. Till then, my hyperenthusiasm over things you might not care about will find their way here.
In Which I Wax Poetic About My Umbrella
Lately, the weather here in the Manila is more unpredictable than my temper on an incredibly hormonal day: one minute it’s bright and sunny, and the next it’s raining like hell. For commuters like myself, getting caught in the rain on your way to work or to a movie date or wherever, well, sucks. You...
First Batch! Film Photography!
There’s something really exciting with shooting in film. Digital cameras are crisper and sharper, and of course, more convenient. But using it just doesn’t have the same kind of thrill. With digital cameras, all the work is done for you. As long as you know how to operate your camera, chances are, you can get...
Y! Rocks Concert, well, rocks!
We were lucky enough to score a few SVIP tickets from our friend, so we got to see some of the best bands in the country in Yahoo Philippines’ Y! Rocks concert last night.
D-Day! (Divisoria Day)
K and I are going to climb Mt. Pulag in February! It’s our first time to attempt mountain climbing, and we’re going to Luzon’s highest peak. Ambitious, yes? But we heard the trail was pretty easy and the photos are ruddy marvelous. I sweet-talked/conned K into coming with me by saying we’ll have a lot...
Are You Santa? Tell The Truth
One of the most disappointing things kids need to find out is the fact that Santa isn’t real. I don’t have kids yet, so I might not have to answer this question for a good 10 years, but I think this is the perfect, most sincere way of telling my kids that their bouncy, red-clad...
A Warning: Mid-20s is the age when people start telling you to get married
And after you get married, they’ll start pestering you to have kids. And your friends getting married (or getting pregnant) one after another is no help at all. K and I have been together for 6 years and neither of us have siblings. Imagine that–sometimes I think our relatives are more excited for our wedding...
Birthday Bangin’ with Paper Jamz
K and I had a phase when all we did after office hours is go to mall the and play DrumMania all afternoon. It was back when we’re both drummer wannabes and can’t yet afford the rather steep prices of drumming lessons (if I remember correctly, our favorite songs to play were Libra, Monster Tree,...
In Which I Yap About a Book for Teens
I tend to be overly enthusiastic about things I love and this will be unnecessarily long. I apologize in advance for that. The Hunger Games official trailer was released yesterday! Three of my friends almost simultaneously tagged me in Fa]cebook with the video a few minutes after midnight last night (they know I have an...
