Paalam, Tado
Tado Jimenez, Angel Rivero and Ramon Bautista. The Strangebrew crew is my 2nd most favourite TV trio next to Tito, Vic and Joey. I still remember all those nights spent in front of the TV, laughing my head off at the antics and adventures of...
Handlebar and my first “sidetrip” to Makati’s red light district
I never thought that I would find myself in a “manly” bar on a Friday night. The guys decided to bring our boss Vernon to Makati after work for drinks. They know a lot of places but they decided on Handlebar, which is in Polaris...
Weekly Photo Challenge: Selfie
I have never been the self portrait-taking type. The reason why I am participating in this challenge is because there is a funny pic that I want to share: You see, this picture is subject to interpretation. It can be any one of the following:...
Happy 45th birthday, Fukuyama Masaharu!
Fukuyama Masaharu is a musician, actor, radio host, and photographer. He is extremely good looking, very talented and obviously, filthy rich. Men want to BE HIM; women want to DO HIM. Another year yet he remains as youthful-looking as ever. This is 45?! 2014 brings...

Voltes V ending theme – 父をもとめて
Over lunch, my teammates and I were talking about old TV shows and Voltes V came up. We reminisced about Steve, Big Bert and Little John — and of course, the haunting ending theme, Chichi wo motomete (Searching for Father). My favourite line used to...
Basic French, week 1
There isn’t much to report here. Classes just started this week and I have only made a bit of progress with Coffee Break French. As of now, I don’t think I will need to get a paid subscription to the podcast as the lessons are...
Day 18, adult swim lessons: the swim stroke of beauty pageants?
Coach Yahcoub initiated me to breaststroke but it was Coach Arnold that made me love it. While most people prefer the backstroke for a relaxing swim, Coach Arnold likes the breaststroke. It gives you the flexibility to go as fast or as slow as you...
Frenching it in 2014
I declare that 2014 is the year of le français. I did the first module at Alliance Francais last year, albeit halfheartedly. Maybe it is because I have yet to discover the beauty of French as a language. But eversince purchasing Assimil New French with...
