Sunday beggar betch
it feels so great to finally touch my fingers on the keyboard to write my thoughts down. i’ve had a really long weekend and i couldn’t stop writing in my head while i was at it.
funny how a lot of things can happen in so little time. these are accounts of what happened.
HULK. i knew my weekend was about to get crazy when i decided to get my laundry: i carried home a gigantic bag...

dear coma 200, i’m sorry if i keep on getting distracted. know that my fingers and my brain are more than excited to finish and publish you.
please allow me to write this blog entry without making me feel guilty.
i’ve been very excited about marvel vs capcom 3 lately.
one, because i’ve been daydreaming about a fan fiction character called astral rose, the street fighter 4 rose...

Why I Blog
that’s always the question i always ask myself ever since i started scribbling online in 2006 (back when Friendster blogs were the “in” thing).
i find that the more i would write my thoughts down, the closer i would be to finding the answer: blogging is a way to discover myself more, and learn about the things that i really care about.
it allows me to strengthen my passion for...

impulse bitch chronicles
i’m an expert at doing shitty things, like going to the mall 30 minutes before i’m supposed to be online for work, impulsively buying something i don’t really need, and riding a jeepney driven by a deranged old man.
ganito kasi yun, my current wallet/purse is dying na. but it’s still functioning; i can still manage having it around.
but this dork impulse bitch inside me...

so, i hate to be a dork, but, i have to blog about this: nasunog ang top floor sa building sa kanto sa among balay.
yeah. feel’s weird to see (and feel) a real-life inferno. it felt freakishly hot even when i was afar.
the firemen’s efforts were futile. the fire on the blazing rooftop kept on dancing even when they were hosing it will gallons of water.
this is the only photo...

Ryu and Spiderman hate each other
Put Ryu up against Spider-Man and he’ll kick off the fight by saying “I hate spiders,” while Spidey retorts with “You must have a black belt in stupidity if you think you’re going to beat me”.

ONE OF the things I did before this year began was to hang out with some friends and enjoy a picnic…in a traffic island near the Buhangin overpass. Really.
Rewind.
My artist friend Angeli Chi, who does a lot of cool street art stuff, texted me days before New Year’s Eve. Her message read, You’re invited to a pre-new year picnic party tomorrow, 5 p.m. At [the] Buhangin flyover. She also told me...

maybe i had too much sleep in the afternoon.
that’s probably the reason why i feel so happy today.
another is my recent visit to Davao Readers Haven, a book rental shop that has been existing in Davao for ten billion years now.
i was quite emotional when i entered the small place—after more than 4 years. i nearly broke into tears. i felt ridiculously happy because they still exist....

Phoenix on Marvel vs. Capcom 3: first impressions
phoenix used to be an average character in the previous fighting games she’s appeared in. remember xmen mutant academy 2 in ps one?
she isn’t very impressive there. well. all of them aren’t. haha
my point is that she’s not as overpowered as she looks like right now in marvel vs capcom 3.
i swear, i wanted to cry when i saw her hypers and specials. she is so going...

i couldn't stop writing in my head today.
i was writing about things as they happened right before my eyes. crazy, i know! i couldn’t concentrate on walking or breathing or whatevering. i know, right?
i’m not kidding. my head was so freaking full of ideas today; all of them are not school or work-related. haha
getting this “idea rush” is both fun and evil. it’s good because it allows me to work my brain...

notes from an interview for a pseudo-podcast...
strengthening the lifestyle and community pages.
that’s what the people in the newspaper world are doing now. people like to get published and see themselves in the paper.
news right now is no longer defined by violence and sex and scandals. yellow journalism is so extinct right? ;)
right now, one of the best stories worth writing and publishing are yours!
a newspaper can be...

notes from an interview for a pseudo-podcast...
print newspapers and the Internet: are we ready to take things online?
the answer: a faint yes. and a gigantic no.
i know that there’s a raging debate about this topic.
let me point out first that those media are unique in their own right.
background (ang akong example kay blogs): from what i’ve learned in media class, a newspaper has a diverse set of readers and it has diverse...

notes from an interview for a pseudo-podcast...
i’ve been very obsessed with papers and other print media lately.
my pseudo-obsession was even heightened when i interviewed mindanao times editor in chief amalia bandiola-cabusao about community newspapers for my podcast-ish for audio production (meda 121) class.
i’ve heard her mention some of these concepts before in some of our “casual” office discussions, but it was...

so i've been behaving very weirdly lately.
i sleep at around 12mn, and then i wake up at around 2am like i only intended to take a nap.
i then find myself walking around my room (yes, i now have a new room that’s spacious enough to walk around in), reading stuff, and heading over to the nearest Jollibee for a very early breakfast (one breakfast steak swimming in gravy please).
clearly, my body has forgotten the idea of a good night...

i don’t like freakishly smart people because they are too arrogant to admit that there are just some things that they don’t know.
