2023.02.01 – THE FIRST SLAM DUNK (Movie)

And indeed, it was my FIRST movie (in the cinema) since the pandemic started. I grew up watching Slam Dunk. It was one of those iconic anime that was shown on Philippine television back in the late 90’s. Yes, it was Tagalized, of course. Who doesn’t know Hanamichi Sakuragi and the Shohoku basketball crew? Personally, […]

2023.01.29 – PoGo, Japanese Day

Hey guys! This is it, the first of my regular updates. *cross fingers* Obviously, it’s not going to be a daily blog, I’ve accepted (as we should all), that life is not going to be eventful every single day. But, I will at least try to take my camera with me to capture moments that […]

Not sure what to post here anymore…

Hey guys! I hope you’re all doing well. I’m doing fine – I can’t say life’s been perfect but it’s not bad. I do feel guilty about not posting here because I really don’t know what to post here anymore. I have accepted that blogging is not the way it used to be. At this […]

SB19 WYAT Tour Cebu!

Let me back track. I discovered SB19 that same night they blew up on Twitter with the dance practice for Go Up. It was the first time for me to see a Filipino group dance so in sync, to a song that despite being in Tagalog, did not sound cringy at all. Little did I […]

New camera!

Hey guys, what’s up?! I know it’s been a while since I posted over here. I just wanted to quickly share that I got a new camera! Well, it’s not exactly new – I bought it second hand over at Carousell. This is my second mirrorless camera and the reason why I got this is […]

A quick Manila visit – WFH vs RTO

It has been over a year since I left Manila to work from Cebu, which is my hometown, given everyone is working from home anyway. As offices are already planning to implement their return-to-office plans, I wanted to “test the waters” by “flying through the skies” and doing a “dry run” of how it is […]

Destination Wedding at Panglao, Bohol

Last February, my college friends and I attended a wedding of one of our classmates in Panglao, Bohol. It was a destination wedding that was well-welcomed after the stress of the past months (Odette). It was an opportunity for a get-away with friends, a short vacation filled with food, drinks and love (Char!). Day 1, […]

Odette.

A super typhoon called Odette (international name: RAI) hit us just a week before Christmas. Cebu has always been “lucky” in terms of typhoons. They normally slow down after passing through the outer islands (Cebu is smack in the middle of the Philippines), and the older, more religious generation would say that Cebu is protected […]

#Rundown: November 2021

November was a breeze. Here’s a rundown of the month in photos! Click one and scroll to see the captions! November was a perfect mix of business and pleasure. I managed to go outside the city for a getaway with friends, met up with work friends even just for a while, destressed over mahjong, ate […]

I bought my first house

This isn’t really news given the actual purchase happened back in 2017. A friend of mine (and you’ll see him later in the video below) who is a real estate broker showed me some properties that were on pre-selling back then and I thought it was time for me to get my own place. I’ve […]
