Finally. I went with my family to Olympic Point in Tingloy Batangas in April – that was holy week. We were determined to not stay at home for a change and so we practically called every possible resort we know to try and reserve. We failed. It was just too close to holy week. And just […]
I’m back. Well, not really back-back, but back somehow. I didn’t know I’ve been away that long. From this blog. From everything in this country. I was out for a bit – went to Singapore for one week (the photo above is taken at a bar with two of my friends who live in SG […]

Insanity Keeps Us Sane
I thought to myself this morning: this world is gonna make me crazy. But then I thought, am I not already? And then I realized that to exist in this world, everybody has got to be partially insane. For us to have gone through all those seemingly impossible, sometimes unsurvivable experiences in our lives, for […]

WARNING: Sabog! I know it should be all Gaga posts now and this is late and all, but I wanted this up because this is my first shot at shooting with the iPhone. It’s not whoa, but the pictures are sharper than any other phone camera I’ve seen (not that I’ve seen a lot). Whew, […]
The Samal House is only one of 6 types of accommodations in Pearl Farm Beach Resort. Why did we choose Samal? Well, we didn’t.

I’ve never been to Davao before – hell, I’ve never been to Mindanao before – until early this year when Nico and I found this good deal for Pearl Farm Resort in CashCashPinoy. The deal was, for P18,999, we get 3 days and 2 nights accommodation for 2 in Samal House (twin sharing). This includes […]
I don’t usually post stories of things that are to come (I am more likely to write about thoughts and experiences than anything) but I am too excited for this to not share it: all ye social media addicts and adventurers out there, the Philippines is finally getting its first country-made badge on Foursquare.

On Fulfillment: Thoughts from the Shower
Kids nowadays – me included – are just so confused with their lives. Everyday they’re faced with gazillions of choices. Sometimes it could be as simple as what to eat, what to wear, what to do on a boring day; other times it could be as complicated as what course to take, which school to […]
Today marks a very significant part of our lives. Today is the day for change. Oh, I don’t mean May 10, 2012; I don’t mean New Year or your birthday. I mean Today – whatever you’re doing, whatever day you’re reading this, wherever the hell you are. We are so obsessed with waiting for New […]
