One of the great things the internet gave us is the easier way of finding old friends. I sometimes spend a lot of time browsing through Facebook and Friendster profiles. It’s really amazing to see photos of friends, from primary school to college, and ex-colleagues. It’s great to know that they are doing well. Yet, [...]
Do you throw away things that you think have already served their purpose? I usually don’t. I don’t like to trash envelopes even if it means crowding my drawer more. I don’t throw away custom presentation folders, one of which I got from an employer four years ago. I still use it when I carry [...]
I have bought dozens of raffle tickets but I have never won even a consolation prize. Yet, there are some people who are very lucky, like winning major prizes each year at Christmas parties or annual company gathering. There’s anticipation, yet I haven’t experienced the joy of winning. For the past few months, my housemates [...]
Yes, I am scared of mascots. Not really scared, I guess. I do know that it’s still a person inside that bulky thing but it just feels so weird when I’m close to one. Honestly, I wouldn’t know how I would react if a mascot holds me. But I have to get over it. It [...]
Do you love jewelries? I did and I still do, a little bit. A close friend always tease me that I was like a pawnshop when I was still a highschool student. I hate to admit it, but he is right. I often wore earrings, gold-plated wristwatch in my left arm, a bracelet in my [...]
The time when I will no longer be in my late 20′s is fast approaching. I have sworn to start a healthy lifestyle and establish an exercise regime before that time comes. I have heard that it is more difficult for women to lose weight when they reach 30. Aside from it, there’s this acne [...]
Lately, I’ve been busy searching for my highschool batchmates in the internet. As expected, I’ve seen many of them in Friendster! I sometimes do this because I have nothing else to do. But this time, we are trying to gather everyone to make very early preparations for the Grand Alumni homecoming. Each year, at the [...]
I was nine years old when my brother brought home a male puppy. My brother and I begged our parents until they let us keep him. I think we gave him the name “Virgo”. We took turns in giving him a bath. We were so diligent in keeping him healthy. We didn’t know anything about [...]
From first to sixth grade, I went to a public school about a kilometer away from our house. At that time, there was still no uniform, so the students could wear anything and go to school wearing rubber slippers. The nearest city, Iligan City, is about 30 minutes away by jeepney. So, for the first [...]
It’s been more than a month since I’ve posted my last Thursday Thirteen. I’m glad I’ve got the mood to write my list again. I’ll reveal some of the steps I’ve taken to battle off an enemy for over a decade: acne. I was so desperate (and still am), that I even did some idiotic [...]
