Manila Kingpin: The Asiong Salonga Story
—
in WatchI just watched the movie “Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga” with C and… I didn’t get to see the trailer so from what C told me, I thought it was a comedy (gangsters shooting each other on kalesas). So when we were buying tickets, I was saying it’s probably going to be…

The ‘Perfect’ Christmas
—
in LiveWhen I was a kid, we used to have “fun” Christmas celebrations. There would be themes every year where we have to dress up in costumes, have lots of games, and then have a gift-giving session where someone takes the mic and gives out the gifts under the tree one by one. As I grew…

All the sweet things
—
in LiveI had one of the best birthdays last 22nd because (1) my mom worked really hard to prepare all the pesto and other food I fed my officemates with and (2) C surprised me with roses, the 2012 Pacman Weekly Planner, and the Hope Cheesecake from Banapple. Aside from that, he even treated me and…

For the first time in a long time
—
in LiveI didn’t expect to be looking forward to my birthday this year. See, the hard thing about having a birthday that falls so near Christmas is that most people aren’t free to celebrate with you, or are busy with a lot of other things themselves, or your birthday gets conveniently celebrated with Christmas day itself.…

You never really know anybody until you’ve seen the best and worst of them
—
in PonderI used to be really insecure about myself because I felt that because we were both sort-of “creative” people, there’s this unsaid competition between us. And it’s a competition I don’t want to be in, which always made me want to give up an aspect of design to focus on something else. But hearing that…

Dinner with friends at Yabu: House of Katsu
—
in EatC and I met up with Angelica and Kasey to have some dinner at Yabu: House of Katsu (2nd Floor Atrium, Megamall). I work in Ortigas but I didn’t even know of the restaurant until Kasey texted raving about it. After reading Carina’s blog entry about it, I became more excited to eat there! (Although…

Tea and more at Raintree
—
in EatTwo weeks ago, C and I tried getting milk tea from Raintree Teapresso Blends near White Plains (exact address: 141 Katipunan Avenue, St. Ignatius Village, QC). It’s right before the intersection to Katipunan Ext., if you’re going towards Ateneo. I got curious because Gail mentioned how she loved going there with her dad. I ordered…

Design Hiatus
—
in PonderFollowing a depressing night, I’ve decided to take a hiatus on designing. I honestly hate how I got here. I’m not over some heartbreaks, and that includes feeling useless and a lot of hate towards myself. My design portfolio used to be filled with posters and whatever I did in college, and it’s a phase…
