I came back Monday afternoon and has been sleeping erratically since then. I have also developed a weird craving for meat which I don't understand since I've been eating sausage with poppy seeds every morning at the hotel as part of our buffet breakfast.

It's funny now that I think about it, I really didn't have fond memories of Glasgow (except a time or two with my friends). And I find it odd because going to new places always excites me and it did actually, but it was a different story when I got there and stayed for a week. The weather has always been grey since the day we arrived. The conference organiser had to give out hundreds of

I'm blogging about my new shiny, fresh books from FB.Listening to an assortment of songs, mainly Coldplay's, Tori's, Freshly Ground, etc.Trying my damnednest not to watch another ep of CSI.And watching Alanis Morrisette's parody of My Humps in Youtube.Busy.

Aside from the terrible heat today (31 deg), I couldn't complain more as I just received my freshly stamped passport from the British Embassy. They gave me 6 months multiple entry, God bless UK.Did I mention I'm working full time now? From home?

If you're a fan of the anime series Bleach and Naruto, you definitely know Dattebayo as they are the leading subber for these two highly-anticipated shows.When DB released the subbed Bleach episode 122 yesterday, there was a "troll" message inserted in the opening message of the episode about the Virginia Tech killings.

I've been hearing a lot about this cafe since I got back, mostly from the henchmen who have no respite when it comes to satisfying their gastronomic cravings. The henchmen are not your typical guys when it comes to food. Definitely far from average (and several of them are still available wink*wink).

I believe that good people still outnumbers the bad, mean ones. Or maybe it's just my lucky week. Perhaps, you're aware that I'm in a mess right now trying to sort documents to support my visa app. I requested for a certificate of enrolment in my School and Ate M. is simply wonderful.

The commemoration of Holy week was one of those times when I felt like being part of the minority. I don't belong to an organised religion and sometimes the consequences of making that choice are quite discomforting. I've learned that since I was a kid, there'd be a time of the year when there'd be no cartoons on TV, for a week! That's quite traumatic for a kid you know.Last week, I received an

after 3 long years, we just finished the academic requirements for our master's degree in urban and regional planning. It has been a very good experience not only for the additional knowledge I've gained in those years but I'm more thankful for the loads of wacky and interesting people I met along the way. They definitely made those three years super fun! It's great to reminisce the hardships

Things are obviously hectic these past few weeks; work, school and a lot of things in between. It's easy to get caught and drown ourselves even with the mere idea of being busy and often, we forget how important it is to actually live for ourselves and for the people we love and care for. It's amazing how one can learn so much within a very short span of time especially once you've seen

Weekend was spent meeting up with group mates for our two papers on traffic impact assessment. I was able to squeeze in editing articles for my volunteer engagement with a South African organisation and finish the e-bulletin for the CSI. In the midst of all these, I was able to watch the previous episodes of Naruto and Bleach. Both had extremely long fillers which started even before I left for

In the midst of my concentration in computing for the projected traffic volume for a proposed residential area in Sucat, a brown envelope was delivered to my uber comfy "office".

How does one start writing about grief? How do you find the words to describe something that is raw and surreal. It was mind numbing, I don't know if that's the default action of the brain as it tries to tap the right emotions, reaching out to deeper recesses of your subconscious to retrieve patches of shared memories. Outside, I just felt cold and empty.*** We walked silently passing through

People love to use the word quick here. It has become some sort of an adjective-prefix in almost everything that a person wants to say, like quick question (when you have to ask something but you're hesitant to interrupt), quick lunch (you have a meeting to attend but your stomach is grumbling), and this, quick post (when you should've been doing work but you find time to blog).***Interesting

Today, I’ll be making one of the toughest decisions in my life. I never expected that this day would come, that I’ll grow a year older and be asked to decide something as complicated as this. I just find it hard and painful to let go of the people and things I have grown to love for the past three years. I hate goodbyes but I guess moving on and getting out of my comfort zone would force me to

I just got home from a whole day stint at Gateway for the film fest. I guess this is one of the best pre-bday celebration I ever had. And I have to thank CEAE for the opportunity they gave me to help them even in a very small way. The staff and my co-volunteers are really awesome tenku tenku :) Please, please if you haven't seen or heard MFF, try to visit Gateway tonight until Sunday, 21 August.

This is one really cool program from Google. You just type in the field where you want to go, anywhere in the world, and Google Earth will fly (yes, fly!) you there in seconds. We were so excited when we learned about this from our classmate in GIS that after installing the program we hurriedly tried searching for the Philippines, UP Diliman in particular.

With the demise of presidentiable and former Senator Raul Roco this morning, I just can't help but think that maybe, Noli De Castro is indeed destined to be our president. The man won hands down versus Loren, that we have to admit. If FPJ won last year's election and Noli his Vice, then with Da King's demise, Noli could have been the president. That's near-hit number one. Near-hit number two came

Finished reading this overly-hyped installment of the HP series Monday night. I started reading it Sunday night and forced my eyes to read until 12 pm, left with 25 pages more, I contemplated of not going to work come Monday morning so I can finish it and verify if you-know-who really died on the page specified by people from hell.I shed a few tears, much less from what I've shed in book five.

Just had a really sad conversation over the phone with my hny, he just confirmed the resignation of 10 Cabinet members. My initial reaction was "Akala ko ba walang bibitiw?" Last night the President tried to save face by pre-empting the resignation of her Cabinet, announcing that she asked them to resign.

I'm too burnt out to blog. Yay. I've read a lot of friends' blogs sharing the same sentiment. If you're thinking that I am affected by the Hello Garci fiasco, by Sin's death, or by the P2 fare increase, I assure you I am not. It's a micro thing, closer to heart, it's my work. Definitely, it's downhill from here on. ***I think I'm gaining weight again because of junk food. And my hny is some kind

I was cajoled enough by the big man to give away one of our secrets to having a "healthy" relationship, other than maintaining an open line of communication as your love guru would tell you, dining together is one sure way to keep your love al dente.
