Given The Chance, Would You Still Want To Be Born A Filipino Or Of Another Nationality?
I don’t think I still have to be asked this question but since it’s here already, I’ll do my best to give a rational answer.
I’m really proud to be Filipino.  I wouldn’t have it any other way.  When I was a [...]

Things You Wish To Change From Your Past
I already have encountered the same question once. The person [which I will call Sneaky] wanted to know if I am contented with my current situation and, if I were to live my life all over again, would I choose to do things differently so that I could [...]

Personal Qualities Worthy To Be Called His Creation.
Qualities I possess worthy to be called His creation? I can give two. And these will primarily deal with LOVE. The love for my Mother and the love ofr my physical appearance.
I was with my cousins malling one time when this mechanical lead vocalist introduced her next selection [...]

Inspiring Story That Influenced Me [in this case, my cousin's again]
Most of us have life mottos that we like to live by, a sort of inspiration to be that better person, or maybe just a motto to get us through everyday life or tough times. Great thinkers before us have shared inspirational stories to live [...]

> For The Love Of My Cousin 01

My cousin is a first year college student. She’s been into a lot of pressures I believe. Coming from a not-yet-that-developed-province,  I know the adjustments she had to deal with here in the big city.  Last week, she asked me to help her with some of her projects and so I obliged. Yes, without thinking.
Earlier, she [...]

> Taking The Wheel

When I was younger, I used to be obsessed over every detail of my life: our home, my clothes, my friends, the people I go out with. I always feel this burning need to stay in control of any given situation. Even the slightest imperfection set me off. Sad to admit but I was onced [...]

> Losing Friends And Embracing It

Life has been unpleasant for the last few months. Like a pregnant woman with unpredictable hormone rages, I have been acting quite strange. My emotions gone extreme and paranoia hit me badly. I came to the point where I couldn’t really trust people anymore. I shouldn’t really be affected but the fact that I’ve lost [...]

> My Tita Cory

I just read Rehabman’s entry about not wishing to write about Cory and what made him change his mind. I am a fan and will always be a son to the type of Mother Cory represents. I wish to write more and pay my own respect through words but is scared I may not have [...]

> Hitch Or Ditch?

I have been all too careful about getting into a relationship the past years. That being said, I now find myself being slaved by the paranoia and the curse of being hooked up with finding that Mr. Right. My friends would usually tease me to get hitched or I’ll be left alone by time but [...]

> Kain Tayo!

Burp! I’m full! I have large Fiesta Bowl and Root Beer in front of me and I just ate Hotshots and French Fries. What a very good start for a tiring day.
I was about to order Pasta Alfredo earlier when the corn of the Fiesta Bowl caught my fancy. I missed the times when we [...]

> Friendship Rules

While I was still in the hype of blogging, I wrote about the “ground rules of friendship”. I wanted to write more but there wasn’t much room or time, so I think this will be the excellent place and time to continue. I’ll try to resume writing again.
There were a lot of ideas floating in [...]

> He’s Cheating On My Sister

Just last week, Almsie, Kelly, Rach and I were having lunch at the pantry. And of course the regular update on how my life is going and how it is living with my sisters and their partners are improving [if I may say so] have been the topic again. My sister caught her husband texting another [...]

> Nobody

Everybody’s humming the tune so I thought of posting this. Got this from my friend Ian Felix Alquiros’ multiply site. Enjoy!

> Ex

We were happy, contented, we were together.
I woke up this morning with a heavy heart. I’ve been having these dreams about my ex. I miss him. Maybe because we really didn’t have a good closure or maybe because we don’t need it. A friend once told me, if you still love your ex despite the [...]

> The Life Of Michael Jackson

> Another Michael

I am one of those Michaels who may not necessarily been named after him but wouldn’t mind being tagged as one. After all, who wouldn’t wish to be like him? When I heard Myah saying the news, I immediately confirmed/googled it. Everyone expressed how they feel bad about it and how in some way or [...]

> Old? Are You?

Last weekend, my cousins came over our place to celebrate my younger brother’s birthday. It was one of those rare ocassion that we get to bond and to hear about each other’s WTFs [pun intended].
It’s funny to realize how time already affected our thoughts about life, what we enjoy and what we pursue. It’s [...]

> He’s Over

I was really surprised yesterday when I received a message from Skad. He asked me to call him, and so I obliged. It has been quite a while since we had a converstaion. How-are-yous and what-has-beens have been uttered until we came to the point of talking about what made us connected or the person [...]

> One Liter Of Gratitude

I love writing, reading books, watching movies or even simple stories.
The past few weeks, I have been doing a lot of reading and TV watching. I love everything that touches the heart and soul in a variety of ways. Some may make you feel uplifted, others angry or frustrated, and still others may make you [...]

> Fulfilling Weekend

This weekend was so relaxing. I felt like I accomplished everything I set out to do, but only the fun stuff, which was a nice change of pace.
I spent time watching and catching up with so much of my TV addiction stuff which of course I always find enjoyable. I had the chance to bond with [...]
