I made an embarrassing mistake at the train station today. There were so many things going through my head and I was in a hurry that I didn’t notice using my left hand to insert the ticket at the machine. Of course it’s OK to use the left hand… but, I entered into a different [...]
“Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder” or “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart“… What happened to these quotes now? Man’s, or should we say mass media’s measure of beauty drove lots of women to plastic surgeries and cause many cases of anorexia. In short, it is [...]
Just couldn’t sleep without fulfilling at least one broken promise… Child labor is a serious issue we have been facing in the Philippines. Despite the meager efforts of the government, children laborers are present almost everywhere, including sugar-cane plantations. The GMA i-witness documentary: Uuwi na si Udong (Udong is going home) reveals the story of [...]
For more than 2 decades of trying to attain the best person that I could be, I’d have to say I’m still a big failure. Why? That big pride always gets on the way. I had met a really, really good friend… could be my soul mate (SM). SM has been a part of my [...]
I’ve been putting off the last few episodes of Naruto and when I finally decided to watch the episodes, I couldn’t stop watching it. So, I ended up sleeping at early dawn. Then at around 11:30am, the alarm went off and I received a few messages from friends that we are meeting at the Shin-Osaka [...]

For me, some rock music are noisy, heavy metal is unbearable and classical music – so boring. I was never drawn to Beethoven or Chopin, and opera houses was never appealing. I found it so weird why people would spend so much just to hear an orchestra playing. Not to mention, dressing up! Then I [...]
A middle-aged couple stepped on the escalator. The man took the right side, while the woman took the left side… Man: Chigau yo! (You’re wrong)Woman: Ehhh? (What?)Man: Osaka wa… (In Osaka…) At first, I found this escalator’s “lanes” concept weird but I now find it convenient. It’s an unwritten rule, but there are fast and [...]
This image was taken from WikipediaI have been watching a lot of i-witness documentaries, one of them was Sisid Barko which was shot in the Babuyan Islands. The place is really awesome… it’s paradise! Aside from its pristine white beaches and clear blue seas, humpback whales abound there. Moreover, there are dozens of sunken shipwrecks [...]
There’s an interesting update from byronfgarcia about those Dancing Inmates. They were let loose just to perform Thriller! I’ll just quote byronofgarcia for the details “The inmates of CPDRC performed a surprise number in front of Capitol. This performance was a request by the inmates as their contribution to the 438th Founding anniversary Celebration. The [...]
When I was still a little girl, I really hated watching boxing. I hated watching people hitting each other while the spectators are cheering them on. But ever since Manny Pacquiao and other Filipino boxers started earning their well-deserved victories, I just couldn’t miss any major match. I wish I could watch live tomorrow’s event: [...]
Yehey! Today’s the last work day and tomorrow’s the start of our summer vacation! Going somewhere?Nope. I’ll just hide from the sun and spend the 9-day vacation mostly in the apartment. Doing what? I won’t strictly impose to do’s for my self. Surely, there are lots of Korean/Taiwanese/Japanese dramas out there. Then there are at [...]
