The year 2017 was for me, a year of moving on. When my dad passed away last December of 2016, I realized that life is indeed very short and fleeting. I felt a kind of pain that I’ve never felt before – one mixed with regrets, what-ifs, and feeling sorry for myself and the family. […]
It’s only recently that I’ve discovered the minimalist lifestyle. I’m still far from calling myself a minimalist, but I’m slowly trying to get there. You may ask, why this lifestyle? I have one answer – I want to focus on the important things in life. The ones that make me feel like life is good. These […]
I’ve seen these Tiny Houses before on cable TV, but that was prior to my interest in living a life of minimalism. A lot of my friends have already bought their own condominium units, built their houses in the suburbs – and here I am, still renting a two-bedroom apartment with my brother. My future […]
Last week, I turned another year older. At this point, age is really becoming just a number. Deep in my mind and my heart, I don’t feel like I’ve grown up much. Although I can’t deny the following signs of aging: I can’t drink as much as I used to, or my body takes an […]
Here are the highlights of the week that was: Crazy karaoke at Megapro with LMN friends. This was supposed to be for Rep’s despedida but she was tired and sleepy. We still pushed through and sang/drank like it wasn’t Monday the next day. Jolo’s birthday salubong at Rue Bourbon. Got drunk after 3 bottles of […]
This episode of No Reservations put Zubuchon on the map not just in Cebu, but in the entire Philippines as Anthony Bourdain dubbed it “The Best Pig Ever”. Cebu is home to the best lechon (roasted pig) in the Philippines. And competition is tough. I’m just happy that Zubuchon finally put up a branch in my […]
Your social media account is your own space – I agree to that. But just like your life is yours to live how you want, you still need to consider the impact of your own action to the people around you. If I don’t believe in deodorants as a person, I would still think twice […]
A lot of video streaming services such as Netflix, Crunchyroll (if you’re an anime fan), Dramafever, have geographic restrictions. For those in the US, there’s usually no problems viewing almost 100% of the shows available in these services. However, for those outside the US, and especially in the Philippines, a lot of these content are […]
I’m sorry for the long break – it has exactly been a week since my last post. I attended a wedding of a friend in Boracay last week, so that disrupted my blogging schedule. It was a lovely wedding by the beach – and I got to meet up with old friends. We had a […]
The old office’s back alley, where me and my friends used to get our afternoon snacks. Squid balls, hotdog, and kwek-kwek. There are also two jolly-jeep stalls that sell cheap meals and bananacue. Also known as “creek side”, this small street is super busy on the weekdays, and super quiet (haunting, even) on the weekends. […]
