Melts in you Heart, Not in Your Hands
And just like what I’d always do every afternoon: Go down and look for chocolates. In my great desire to look for chocolates, I found these cute and yummy M&Ms hidden inside our ref. Haha! I was munching on a pack of it before I noticed it wasn’t the usual M&Ms. Haha! It turned out to be Angela’s gift to my brother. Yihaaa! They’re so in looove! HAHAHA! New gift...

Happy Christmas!
Yesterday was like our mini-christmas party with friends. That was supposed to be a real party + inuman at our place, apparently, just like any other groups, some have out grown the friendship and wouldn’t care anymore. So us who were free and willing to celebrate yesterday went to MOA, took our chance at Vikings.  5:30 we were number 28. (waiting lines are really long back there at...

Chocolates & Christmas
It was 2006 since I made my own version of Choco Crispies for my entrepreneur class. Weeks ago I’ve thought, why not make another batch of Choco Crispies and give them as gifts? :) Perfect Idea!  Bought almost 20 kilos of raw chocolate bars. 10 white chocolates, 10 kilos of dark bittersweet and bags and bags of rice crispies.   I had to ask my Ate’s to do the shaving cause I...

The Big Boss' day!
The man who doesn’t speak much serious stuff. The man who jokes around with a bag full of humorous stories. The man who was once a truck driver and a riles boy. The man who gave us and is giving us a good life. The man making money out of being so bolero and talkative turned a year older again! Happy birthday papa! :)  Dec 19 is a day dedicated to him alone, since he doesn’t ask any...

The Branches. The Constitution tells us that the government has three co-equal branches. The Executive, The Legislative and The Judiciary. Even elementary kids would know this. And these three branches are tasked to make sure the Philippines run smoothly (which doesn’t really happen). And one of their duties is to COUNTER CHECK AND BALANCE each other to ensure that the other branches do...

Hello.
knnthbltrnbnd: jhnmyr: If you want to be truly intimidating, If you want to make an impact, If you want to have strong connections with others just be sincere. Sarcasm is not an attitude, and it’s not a personality trait. It’s a style of rhetoric meant to be used occasionally to highlight a larger point. Saying you’re a sarcastic person is like saying your favorite cuisine is salt. Sarcasm...

Thousand Degrees of Separation of Time and...
One day, we will only be living on mere memories. We will just be remembering how the sun rays dramatically touches the green plant, or how the vast blue sky would be reflected on a clear ocean. We will only be reminiscing how great the day was. We could only imagine how extravagant the clothes of the crowd were on a sunny day at the metro or during a monday rush under the moonlit night. We...

WatchWatch
Before year 2011 closes, I’d like to stop, and reminisce and cherish moments and memories with friends. Here’s a video compilation of our happiest moments together. How I wish every moment was captured on cam, but we can’t. Because sometimes we were just too happy and euphoric to even get our cameras and capture.  I miss you, friends! Rocky, Alison, Kendell, Aline, Vince,...

This is my first job — Ako Ang Simula. I got into ABS-CBN through my professor, fortunately she’s doing a new show, which is Ako Ang Simula. This is my first job and it’s really awesome (previous blog entry: The Work ). I started working 2nd week of June, and by October I was promoted to be Post-Production Supervisor. I was anxious at first, but then I have to do good so I just...

Dear Activists (part 3)
I think it was late 2010 when I wrote the part 1 and part 2 of my open letter to the filipino activists, especially the young students.  I’m hearing again news about activists protesting about so many things. I’m seeing harsh videos and photos with activists and the police. I know what they are fighting for. For justice, for everyone’s rights, for tax increase, for education...

Toys and more...
I’m really not into cars. I only drive it when I need to, and more or less that’s it. These are few of the rare moments when my dad and my brother would tag me along car shows. But as always, I end up admiring the awesome cars! This chili orange convertible car is so cool! (Okay, I dunno the brand or what have you, I just really like the car) Vintage cars are really my weakness!  ...

Old Familiar Place
“Take me to that old familiar place, take me to memories we won’t erase…” Currently listening to Lupe Fiasco’s ‘Never Forget You’ while writing this. After 6 busy months of working really hard day after day, I’m finally taking a month-long leave. I could only wish it’s for luxury, but sadly for health reasons. I really love my work (minus the...
