I just got an e-mail from Nick, the EIC of Filipino Voices. I was confirmed as a contributing writer! Wooo! I’m really thrilled about this since I’ve been following that blog/web magazine for quite some time now. Oh by the way, don’t worry since I will still be regularly updating this blog as well as [...]

Every Sunday I go to Victory Christian Fellowship over at the Music Museum in Greenhills. This week, the speaker was former basketball MVP Alex Compton. Initially I was a bit worried since I didn’t have a clue as to what a basketball player had to say about spirituality. However, I was really floored after hearing [...]

Oh man. I just have to re-post this here. I was reading Jayvee’s blog and I followed the links to Gabe Mercado’s multiply site. Apparently they made a Facebook group called “I’m Watching Rick Astley and I Want Roderick Paulate to be the Opening Act.” Little did they know that the producers of Rick Astley’s [...]

I’ve heard of Meez for several months now but I never bothered checking it out until today since Mich asked me to make my own avatar. I was a bit hesitant at first but I eventually ended up having fun making my own “mini-me”! Now If you noticed, I already replaced my profile picture with [...]

When I was in High School, I used to go to this Barber Shop near Kamuning called Sunday Barbershop. It was my favorite place to get a haircut and a shave because the barbers there gave a long and excellent massage after. I usually gave around P50-P100 to my regular barber, Mang Jun, as tip [...]

I’ve been reading a lot of fiction books lately and there are a few things that I learned that made me realize how powerful books can be. Fiction books can fill your mind and heart with a sense of wonder and longing. You want to break out from the routine and try to live the [...]

This year was undoubtly one of the most exciting, happiest, saddest, and craziest year I’ve ever had. To those who don’t know, I turned 26 years old yesterday, July 21. Looking back, I can’t help but smile and wonder at how much life has changed in 1 year. Yes, there have been a lot of [...]

I took this Myers Briggs personality test online which my new friend from Victory Christian Fellowship, Jonas, shared with me through his own blog. I actually took this test already in High School and College. I also took it last month when we had our Marketing Team Building Session in Pangasinan. What’s amazing is I’ve [...]

Despedida Dinners can be sooooo depressing. It’s basically your “last” time together with someone dear to you and it brings a lot of people to tears. Last night, I met up with my guildmates from Shadow Circle, a barkada that started from the virtual online world of Ragnarok. While it was really a sad occasion, [...]

Other than going to VCF every Sunday, I usually have small group sessions twice a week. One is a rather medium sized group with Pastor Dennis, and the other one is with a really small group of around 4-5 people. I made an analogy last week when I was talking with Bu, our small group [...]

Went to Rob Ty’s birthday party last night with Mich and I had so much fun since they had a poker game going. Poker is one of my other hobbies and I usually play with my officemates at least 2-3 times a month. This time I played with Rob and his school mates from Ateneo [...]

I’m currently in a crossroads in my life. On one hand I have a good career that has a lot of potential. My bosses are really good, and they’re always supportive. I can’t thank them enough for molding me into a professional and a leader. I’ve rose through the ranks in the past 3 years [...]

Last Friday night, I went out with my Ateneo college blockmates and it was really fun seeing each other again after such a long time. We met up at Red Box in Greenbelt 3 for a night of good old fashioned singing, drinking, and unwinding. It’s amazing how much everyone has grown through the years! [...]
