How will you react when you lost an important entity in your life?
How will you accept the loss of that one thing you are drawing inspiration from?
Will you remain still and endure the pain of hollowness? or, should you unleash the anger to that person who took it away from you?
To you who stole him, who practically snatched it from my hands: You know for a fact that I cannot possibly scream right in to your face to exhaust this pain you caused me.
That’s because I am more than your …

Last Saturday, we were scheduled to attack Bonifacio Global city to watch the first day of WPO. We were excited to see this show, since it’s China’s turn. It would’ve been like watching this whole hullabaloo from the people who invented it. More like watching Einstein talk about theory of relativity, or politicians talk about corruption (sounds like a typical day in the congress).
We’re about to hit the road when it started drizzling. So we’ve decided to just wait for the next match instead. I already put …

I left the office and it was drizzling. At around 10 AM I decided to drive to Monette’s place, and for some unknown reason, I grabbed Ferrari (My dog) and headed off to the parking lot. Water’s currently at ankle level, few minutes later, I realized I left my money in my apartment and so I made a full turn to realize that the area was no longer passable.
After 2 hours of trying to figure my way out of the Sampaloc maze, I got caught-up in a vehicle jam in …

I’m the kind of person who would fall asleep watching Saw series. Cliches and lame copied scenes would enrage me. And post-movie anorexia happens if a film involves cheap CGI, stupid scripts and John Lloyd Cruz in it.
I watched UP yesterday. It was my first time to watch a full length 3D film here in the Philippines. I was kind of expecting a (well) fun Sunday afternoon kiddie film, but to my surprise, the first 10 minutes of the film already struck a nerve right on.
Ho-M-Gee Ho-M-Gee Ho-M-Gee! This is …
