Everybody else is doing it, so why can’t I?

Well, the way I see it, whatever happens here in Manila, with all these people deciding to do one thing, and then changing their minds at the slightest whim, it’s not like anything they do is going to work wonders for the “mamamayang Pilipino”. It’s all mindless rhetoric. Don’t they understand it just doesn’t make [...]

So I received news today that one or more people have acquired the bad habit of putting an acidic substance in the water jugs (read: Colemen) of some Pisay students. This habit/bad practical joke/borderline psychotic activity was made school-wide public only after the fifth incident, which led to the poor girl burning her esophagus and [...]

We had an agreement, I and my shiftmates, to make today’s blog entry about the memo that went around the office, reminding us peons once again that watching videos and playing games were not allowed.

I’ve read this book, literally, ten times already, and it’s still sad and slightly off-kilter, and the ending just kills me (of the book [...]

*Sorry, crappy photos. Damn phone!*
Now I know why the Japanese rule the world. Or at least did; back in the 80’s. Look at these noodles from Duty Free. They came in this SuperAmazing package!

The seal sticks the corner when you put the hot water on your noodles! AMAZING!

Speaking of bodies, I just saw the Madonna performance for this year’s Grammys — check out HollywoodRag.com — and, gaddemit, that is one smoking hot MILF. She’s practically my mother’s age. But those toned muscles! Those perky butt cheeks! Skipping about in stilletos! I’ve never even had any of those. Not even my boobs are [...]
