The latest Animal Crossing game arrived at the most perfect time, when the entire world was basically in lock down due to the pandemic. It helped me cope up with being stuck at home, and I’m sure it’s the same for everyone who played the game since its release last March. I did not know […]
This is an unpopular opinion, and I was actually hesitating about posting this. But this is why I think we should not do mass testing yet. Our doctors and medical practitioners are not the frontliners in this “war” against COVID-19. We, the general public, are. They are our last line of defense. Our hospitals, doctors […]
Hey guys! Wow, 2020 has been crazy, right? We started out with the threat of World War 3. Then where I’m from (Manila, Philippines), a volcano erupted causing people to evacuate and those in the city buying masks for protection against ash fall. Now here we are with the virus – everyone knows about this […]
E-gang, or Eyeglasses gang, is what we used to call ourselves back in our Villaruel Tower days. It’s been a while since we’ve hung out together since Darl’s has moved to Cebu for good, so we had a lot of catching up to do. And what better way to spend time catching up than over […]
MAP stands for Mahjong Association of the Philippines – no, we’re not an official association – we just called ourselves that several years ago when we played mahjong almost everyday as a past time back when we all lived in Makati.

Every year, my college barkada (a.k.a., Azure Society) has an annual gathering for Christmas. It used to be an outreach program, followed by a Christmas Party – but for the past two years (and because we’re already doing our own outreach programs separately), we’ve tried to make our Christmas parties a bit more creative (and […]
Hello guys! I haven’t been posting daily like I said I would (again), but I won’t dwell on my failure and will start catching up on posts from here on. July was super hectic but also extremely eventful for me. Here’s a quick snapshot of my July 2019: More details to follow in separate posts […]
I said over at Twitter that there’s going to be some major changes in my life this month and so this is my first official announcement of one of those changes – I’m moving out of the apartment I’ve lived in for the past 8 years! It was quite a rash decision-making from my part […]
While summer has just recently started for the rest of the world, it’s done for the Philippines. We’ve had no sun for the past two weeks. It’s been raining non-stop, with crazy thunderstorms every other day. I love the rain – I am a rain person, and I like the cooler temperature that goes along […]
