I’m sitting on my desk, typing at my computer, the air conditioning blowing cold air straight at me – but my hands and feet are still sweating like crazy. As a student, I hated writing because my paper or notebook always ends up soaking wet. I had to insert another sheet of paper, or a […]
I grew up at a time when manga (Japanese comics) was considered scarce, at least in the Philippines. Outside of Japan, there’s barely any access to manga, or if there were, it was quite costly! When I bought my Kindle, originally for e-books, I wondered if there was a way to put an entire manga […]
I’m sorry for being a day late, but as promised, here are my highlights of the week (May 8-14): I have been going to work earlier than usual, so that I could also go home earlier. My friend (Ralph) and I were able to consistently get to the office by 7AM, and leave for home at […]
It’s my first day of following the daily themes I’ve set for myself. So, even if I’m quite drunk and that it’s quite late (it’s already Saturday early morning, to be exact), I am forcing myself to write this post so that I don’t feel like such a loser on my first day. Crying Tiger. […]
I know, I know. Even at studying for my upcoming exam this July. Just this week, I’ve blocked my calendar for these two main activities that I need to accomplish on a daily basis. I wasn’t able to follow this schedule the past two days, though! I’m still hopeful – slow progress is better than […]
I’m not really trying to be a food blogger, but whenever I do find restaurants that I think are worth my money, I would probably write about them here so that at least my friends (and you followers) will get to try it. Today, I had late lunch with my brother at Century City Mall. […]
Holy Week is one of the longest consecutive holidays in the Philippines. A lot of us take advantage of the free time by going home to the province, staycation at a beach resort, or even travel abroad. Most of the times, I go home to Cebu. This year, I just stayed put in Makati. My […]
Back in high school (e.g., almost 20 years ago), it was very difficult to get access to Japanese music in the Philippines. I learned how to download music through mIRC and waited an entire night to download just 1 to 2 songs. But I was patient. In a year, I got to know JPOP artists […]
Valentines Day. The day when a clear line is drawn between people who are single and those who are taken. Social media is infested with photos of flowers, chocolates and dinner dates. But, that’s not the only way to celebrate Valentines. While some of us have dates, some of us get drunk. After 6 1-liter bottles […]
Ohayou in Japanese means Good Morning, while Oyasumi means Good Night. This is my tagline because my body clock is so messed up that I go to sleep when most people are already getting up from their beds. The word play just fits! I wish I could do something about my body clock. I don’t want to […]
