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. My friends have all long gone home to Cebu for good, but we meet […]
It’s Christmas day – but for Filipinos, most of the celebrations and parties happen during Christmas Eve. December 25 is when things slow down and people take a rest from all the partying. I got bored at home so I was happy when my friends also wanted to go out for drinks this night! We […]
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 […]

Hey guys! It has been a while. I noticed that I’ve been getting a few visits from my Romaji lyrics transcriptions, so I decided to make more! This is the first of many! I may get into actually translating the lyrics into English later, but even with just converting to Romaji, I am already learning […]
So, where were we? We just finished up with Liberty Square and were starving from all of the walking. It was finally time for lunch. Little did I know that after this, the rest of the day was going to be filled with food (and drinks). Hangzou Xiao Long Bao We decided to try the […]
