I’ve been to a few other provinces since I first posted this map. But I am still a “C Grade Traveller”. Anyway, I look forward to visiting more places soon and one of my immediate goals is to visit all the provinces in the Bicol region. :) My Lakbayan grade is C! How much of…
I have just returned from a long weekend of sun, sand and sea in Camarines Norte. I’ve fallen head over heels with Bicol — its sights, its people and most definitely, its food. I was never a fan of coconut milk because of the “revolution”…
I didn’t know I liked this song until Youtube infected me I was just listening to this Hungarian tutorial channel by Dolores Kostic and in the first video, this song was playing in the background. I don’t know why but instead of being distracted by…
Bonjour à tous! お元気ですか？Ako, keri lang Just a bit of an update from the language learning front. I know that I haven’t been writing much about the topic since quitting my Alliance Française classes. But I assure you that I have not stopped studying at…
Did you see the weather forecast this week? The mercury is inching up. You know what this means, right? Summer is bustin’ out all over! I love summer and somehow, I associated it with the song “It’s Always a Good Time” by Owl City and…
I finally got my Twitter feed up and running, and I have a shoutbox/chatboard now — see the sidebar! not sure if the shoutbox is a good idea or not, but whatever. Anyway, on to the main topic of this post…I think that the bagoong…
Forgive me because this entry might end up peppered with colorful language. I need to rant and I might not have enough energy to edit. ==================================================== This morning, I boarded a jeepney on my usual commute to work. I was the first passenger. Aside from…
This day did not start out well. First, I could not get proper sleep last night as I had an upset stomach from eating too much chocolates. Well, Aya didn’t want to eat these Bangkok chocolates and I hate that they’ve been in the house…
My addiction to Lucban longanisa is no secret. I think it is perfection in all its garlicky glory. Tonight, I used it in my aglio-olio pasta to recreate 1st Colonial Grill’s Guinobatan Longanisa pasta. I tasted this pasta in February when we were in Bicol…
Teaching is one of our company’s activities for corporate social responsibility (CSR). Every Friday each week, my teammates, boss and I worked as volunteer teachers. Together with other volunteers from the company, we go to a public school in Taguig to spend one hour teaching…
I am not really into hippie-dippy stuff like fortune-telling or astrology. But sometimes, I like reading them and taking all these personality tests to see if they actually describe me. I learned about Doubutsu Uranai 動物占い – animal fortunetelling or animal divination – from Ate…
Oh look at that — a Grammy-winning artist moonlighting as a recruiter. Kewl! I can almost imagine the interview going like this: Some people live for the fortune So tell me about yourself Some people live just for the fame Why did you leave your…
I haven’t been on Youtube in a long time. So I never really watched any videos of my favourite songs. But last week, I was slacking off a bit…and saw this video of “Love Somebody”. It is one of my favourite songs from the Overexposed album. The video is really unique — I love it. Touching and being touched by Adam Levine like that. Crazy sexy.
I’ve never been to Cebu. I have heard lots of great things about it but I never had the chance to visit. Until Endre came to the Philippines for a month-long stay. Endre first visited Cebu last year during the Sinulog Festival. It was love…
Life is a choice: if you can’t have all, have some at least.
If you can’t be good, don’t be bad. If you can’t be totally happy, don’t be completely sad. ENJOY LIFE!
