Where did the year go?!
OMG. How lonely has my blog become? It is now the first of July and I am only writing my second post of the year. SECOND!! Now, I am done shouting. Whew. It has been a very busy half-year. A quick rundown: January: I celebrated...
Happy 2016!
Happy new year! Uhm, I am not going to make excuses for 2015, nor am I going to make resolutions for 2016. But just like last year, I know I will live this year in my own fashion — not in any way that people...
Heartbreak Monday: Masha is married!!
So all good things must end. Today, September 28, 2015, singer-songwriter/heartthrob extraordinaire Fukuyama Masaharu married actress Fukiishi Kazue.

20 years of Back For Good
This iconic boyband song turned 20 years old this year. TWENTY. Let that sink for a while…then enjoy this video! I prefer this version than the original music video because it shows the guys much older (and hotter) and very dapper. Heh. I had my...
My head is full of languages
Over the long weekend, I was assessing my language goals and came up with a short list of the things that I want to learn. The first list, these are the languages that I need to learn by 2015. That is roughly one language each...
Throwback Thursday: University graduation
Rewind to 14 years ago: the place was the PICC Plenary Hall. The event was the graduation ceremony of all economics and accounting students of UST. I came with my parents, 2 sisters and my grandmother. Full force. Well, I was the first grandchild in...
