With so much sympathy in my soul, I stared at myself in the mirror and told her the truth: “You’re bored.” The reflection in the mirror raised the pistol to her lips, blew air across the opening and gave me the look. “Yes,” she smirked menacingly as she said the small word. I guess, I…
She was so stressed out that she wanted to take advantage of the vague emotions she’s feeling. She wanted to extract the soul of that familiar emptiness, spill it on a paper and organize it into a lovely arrangement of words. She’s drowning herself into her own thoughts and gently stayed afloat and lifeless, but…
Apparently, the latter part of 2015 silenced my pen for innumerable reasons, one of which is my very own invasive indolence. I am not proud; I just happen to be an honest person who is partially addicted to spending my young years wasting words. Please tell me I’m not actually typing this honest introduction right…
The cursor kept on blinking and so did the thoughts inside my head. Suddenly, I heard my officemate talking about “Rafting”. At first, I shrugged off the idea of joining them because of 3 reasons: 1.) money 2.) money 3.) money But you only live once they say and although it wasn’t easy for me…
Loving those who love us is easy, but when it comes to loving those who hurt us and bring us down, one might raise his eyebrows in silent question, “ehh?” But one thing I’ve learned from today’s service is that UNFORGIVENESS eats away at you, like a cancer that destroys you from the inside. It…
Chaotic and busy urban life, pollution brought forth by the so-called “progress”, red-flagged emails, deadlines, alarms… stop. Time to log off for a while, breathe and slow down. Time to take a break. 🙂 For thirsty wanderers like me, Bato Springs is like an oasis in the middle of the desert, and a perfect paradise…
Bukod sa labing-walong makukulay at malalanding sticky notes sa desktop ko, at dalawang patak ng luha sa aking papel na ngayo’y nagsusumigaw ng “Ginusto ko ‘to!”, wala na akong ibang mapagtuunan ng pansin. Kaya tara, usaping puso muna tayo mga kapatid. Mga Bagay na Dapat Isaalang-alang Kapag Nagmahal, Nagmamahal at Magmamahal Ang love ay parang…
Life is ain’t a rehearsal, not a theater, not a game, so we might as well enjoy and learn from everything it offers– be it the beauty of solitude or the genuineness of bliss. So, after entertaining the knocks of some down moments, here I am, opening another door again. This time, for an adventure. A…
Tiyan Chan’s Day Okay. So, what am I even doing here in a computer shop? Put your hands down. I am not that sleepy yet, and I feel like answering my own question. It’s already 2PM, and I guess, I am here to elaborate the meaning of “martyrdom”, hoping not to cause any unnecessary exaggerations…
So here goes another one of my “doing-things-though-you-don’t-know-why” dramas in life. Oh, yeah, fasten your seatbelt; I am also making my Wish List! ‘Tis not because I want to have them all before this year ends (I am not greedy and do not believe in wildly unrealistic and delusional realization of all dreams and wishes…
“Why not write a happy story… 😛 for a change?” (Yeah, don’t forget about the smiley sticking out its tongue.) This was the suggestion (or maybe, his fancy word for “dare”) of my officemate who happened to read my post yesterday. I stopped for a while to reflect and to remind myself of the reason…
Imagine me grabbing my pen, doing some doodles, then introspecting… introspecting more… introspec (it’s way too early for lies) …falling asleep. Now take a screenshot of that scenario in your mind. Perfect. That’s exactly me most of the time (perhaps, a flimsy disguise for “Always”). A sleepyhead. This is the reason why I haven’t posted something here…
“Ate, Kuya. Excuse me po. Saglit lang po. Pwede pong makahingi ng pandagdag ng pamasahe? Ate… Kuya…” Mas marami pang nagaganap sa mundo kaysa sa kayang kunan ng camera at media… Mas marami pang pangyayaring hindi saklaw ng balitang ipinapakita… Nakikita ba ng salitang kawang-gawa ang mga guhit sa’king palad? Natitilamsikan man lang ba ng…
Aside from the inspiration to write again, one of the achingly real things that I need right now is the firm grip on faith and focus. I honestly don’t know which is fake and which is real “me” anymore. There is this fighting optimism telling me to display a smile, and at the same time,…
Uh-huh, too late to post something about Halloween, eh? But I still want to share my experience slash kill-me-now, slash I-will-never-gonna-do-this-again presentation of my DIY’d Halloween costume. So, we had this Halloween Costume Contest in our company, and the prize was a cloud-nine-y Php 2,000,000.00! Just kidding… it’s just an extravagance of my imagination.…
