Climbing walls again
…climbing the wall of laziness! It’s been too long since I last went wall climbing. The last time was high school, I think. Today was a chance to start getting into something to counter all the weight-gaining, except well, we ended up filling ourselves with Banapple afterward. Still, not bad for a start. We’ll try…

So tired of feeling tired
—
in LiveI’m tired. It’s already nearing the end of the month, and the last blog post I wrote was last October 8th. It’s not like I’ve been doing anything particularly overwhelming. I’m just perpetually trying to figure out things. Work-wise: Most of the day I’m either coding/designing for projects for the company or its clients, or…

You feel the world going on without you. And soon, you become starkly aware that in the great history of life, you mean absolutely nothing.

in ReadI’ve been reading Everything Beautiful Began After. The title above is a quote from the book that is significant to me mainly because it’s how I feel about the world and the people in it often. I think this is why most people feel less lonely when they’re in a relationship. “Loneliness is like being the…

In search for nearby good milk tea
—
in EatOK, Bon Appetea tastes really horrible, and for the longest time it was the milk tea nearest the office. I saw Boba Milk Tea (at the corner Garnet street) and tried it out last week. Their milk tea was alright, but their pearls were also horrible (like they’ve been soaked too long or something). Yesterday,…

—
in EatLast Friday, I had dinner with Gail (Lles caught up later in the evening) and for some reason, the only time I get to eat Vietnamese food was when I’m with Gail. The first time was when I accompanied her to shop for clothes, and the second time was last week. We originally wanted to…

Work insights – week 7: Things I crave for at work
—
in Live(I know, I missed two work-insights posts. Life happens.) There are some things I’ve been craving for at work, and they’re not just potato chips anymore. Sugar. I’m working on some PHP and MySQL for one of our projects and for me, coding those needs a lot of thinking (because I’m not that good in it,…

And where the regret takes me
—
in LiveGetting involved with a film org in college is the most bitter pill I’ve ever swallowed, the biggest mistake I’ve ever made, and the nastiest regret I’ve ever felt. I never knew, back in sophomore year, that saying “yes” to becoming Creative Deputy would lead me here. Here — regretting all those three years spent…

C’s Japan Package
—
in LiveThis is a post long overdue. My list of pasalubong from Japan that C gave me when he got home. We’ve gone out often after work since he arrived, so I’ve always been too tired to blog about this in the past week (we go out for dinner, but then I’m just so tired every time…

In the Heights in Manila
—
in LiveI watched In the Heights (Manila, by Atlantis Productions) last night with C and a couple of friends. The play’s about these characters living in Washington Heights — immigrants mostly, who are in a poor community but struggles to get by and dreams of moving upward. C has made me listen to the music from the…
