Wordless Weekend

Alexei's Again!

Bes picked me up from work yesterday. She had a 6am-2pm schedule and I had midnight-whenever. So since I knew that I was gonna stay late at the office anyway, I decided to wait for her instead. (Even if she got stuck in a bad case of slow-moving traffic and I had sudden init ng ulo bursts.)  When I finally got in the car, and our petty argument was settled, the first thing we both said was "Gutom...

Heartbreaking

This is the saddest news I've heard/read all week. Emily Rapp and her son, Ronan "We are dragon parents: fierce and loyal and loving as hell. Our experiences have taught us how to parent for the here and now, for the sake of parenting, for the humanity implicit in the act itself, though this runs counter...

Alexei's Diner & Cafe

Bes picked me up from work earlier so we could grab a quick lunch before she goes to work and I head home to sleep. So we \went straight to Marikina and decided to just have a really late lunch at one of those quaint little cafes. I'm a big fan of the Marikina Food Trip blog and that's where I learned about all these great Marikina food finds (I've listed as a to do in my listography - not...

The Bet

I am getting fat and it's not healthy. My stomach's all big and heavy and doesn't really agree with my arms, boobs, and legs. K, on the other hand, is so thin you'd think she wouldn't even have the strength to walk. for real. So we have this bet going on. We'll each measure how much we weigh on November...

Satur-date

I was really craving for isaw for, I guess, more than a month now. So when a couple-friend asked us if we wanted to join them for isaw at Aling Rosie's, girlfriend and I gamely agreed. 1, because, AGAIN, I was craving for isaw. And 2, (this reason she doesn't actually know), because I wanted to get...

Winning on the web

Researching on a keyword I was assigned to write about led me to a website which had this pop-up: so, I'm 1,000,001? Don't these pop-ups usually say "You're visitor number 1 Million!" or "You're our 1 Millionth visitor!" I just can't help but LOL at this. I can't say enough apologies for visitor number...

Of music, cups, scribbles, and puffs

Got in early at the office today. Meaning, I will be listening to awesome music from my friend Erika. She sits in the station diagonal (?) to mine and she plays some of the really good music I've ever heard in my...life (?). I want to ask her the entire contents of her playlist but I guess that would...

Girlfriend's 25th

For Kacy's 25th, I made reservations at Isabelo Garden Restaurant for the night of her birthday. And we had the entire place to ourselves. With romantic background music, lovely ambiance, polite wait staff, and YUMMY GORGEOUS HEAVENLY food. (And I will not attempt to write the whole evening as...

Email I sent to MetroDeal

I just want to complain about this VERY VERY VERY VERY rude sales agent (as i believe he is) I talked to on the phone last Saturday. I was claiming my iLeaf earphones and the people from Circuit City said I wasn't on the master list. I talked to their Supervisor (also another extremely rude unpleasant lady) who I had requested to let their contact person from MetroDeal (Rodel something -...

Haven't been

blogging lately. As obvious. I just feel so tired all the time. I actually opened this account just so I could try to wake up. Oh, and I'm hungry. Have to remind myself to tell girlfriend my hungry tummy is craving for some Purefoods pork and beans. And a Hungarian sausage. If you could throw in a couple of chips or some bread roll, it would all make for a nice English breakfast. I wi...

By Friedrich Nietzsche

1. People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.2. He that humbleth himself wishes to be exalted.3. The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.4. There are no facts, only interpretations.5. Morality is but the herd-instinct...

Was browsing

the web earlier (as always) and realized just about how many people took the 30 day photography challenge and I thought "Hey, how come I've never seen/heard of a 30 day writing challenge?" So I Googled it, and found this: 30 day writing challenge: Day 1 —Select a book at random in the room. Find a novel or short story, copy down the last sentence and use this line as the first line of your new story. Day...

Created a

new board on Pinterest. The sewing board, as shown here: I learned how to sew shorts and shirts and wallets when I was in grade/high school. And now that I cannot find any reasonably priced skirts around (thrift shops never always seem to have one I like/in my size), I decided I wanted to make a...

i don't

feel really good today. Girlfriend did a pretty quick check up on me and said I was low in iron. Well, I have had my period for 4 days now and have not had a really good night's sleep. She told me I should take the Iberet I have in my pill case. But I'm a stubborn prick who doesn't really like taking in any kind of meds... except the ones that make you fall asleep (shh). Although I think I really...

So if I hold your hand...

"Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in skywriting. Love is about going that extra mile, even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there." - Little Manhat...
