2018.08.11 – Chill Saturday

So far, it has been an uneventful weekend, but I welcome the much needed rest. My gout is on its way out (if I may rhyme), and hopefully by tomorrow I can already walk normally. I need to get a haircut and play Pokemon Go (it’s community day) so I will be needing my feet. […]

2018.08.09 – Gout is hell on Earth

My right foot still hurts like hell. I’ve discovered the trigger for this week’s attack and it’s my attempt at intermittent fasting. Apparently, fasting elevates uric acid but the kidney is not able to excrete it because it prioritizes ketones. Umm okay, I got this info off reddit so I don’t know the exact scientific […]

2018 1st Half – Top 5 KPOP songs

So, it’s not too late to post this. I haven’t been listening to a lot of Kpop this year. I guess as I grow older, the more biased I become to the artists that I already like. I will do better for the second half, but for the first half of the year, these are […]

Quitting Social Media

I’m quitting social media – at least the three top ones – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. I’m thinking of it as a way to reduce the distractions in my life, to take me closer to living a more minimalist lifestyle. It’s not going to be easy, being a social media addict since social media was […]

Late Birthday Update

Hey guys! I know I haven’t posted for a long time now. I don’t really have an excuse other than not having any motivation to do anything productive in the past few months. As you may know (or not know), I turned another year older this July! Usually, I do a birthday post that talks […]

Keto Bread (Attempt 1)

Three months into the Keto Way of Eating (WOE) and I thought that it’s about time that I start expanding my menu. I saw a video on Facebook about creating Keto bread so I decided to give it a try. Ingredients The ingredients are simple: 7 medium sized eggs 1/2 cup butter (melted) 2 tbsp. […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 9: Shibuya

My goal for this trip was really to explore places in Tokyo that I’ve never been to before. Shibuya, I have visited the most in Tokyo, but I wanted to hangout here for today for some window-shopping and Pokemon Go! Hachiko Square Shibuya is equivalent to Hachiko and the crazy scramble crossing. I’ve posted about […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 8: Shinjuku Gyoen

After putting this off of my itinerary, I finally found time to visit Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden today. And I’m glad that I postponed it to a day when I had more free time, because the place is enormous! The last time I went here with my friends, we were in a rush. We arrived […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 7: Meguro River, Akihabara

Although day tours are convenient, because of the distance and the length of the commute, it can still be tiring and draining. After two consecutive day tours, including waking up early for the pick-ups, my body caved in to sleep.  In short, I woke up at 12 noon! My remaining days until I leave on […]

Tokyo Spring 2018 – Day 6: Mt. Fuji

It’s weird for most that even though I have been to Japan several times, I have never seen Mt. Fuji yet. The truth is, I have tried to see the great mountain on my very first visit (from Hakone), but he didn’t show up. They said that Mt. Fuji is a shy mountain, showing itself […]
