FALSE HOPE AND PROMISES
Recently I’ve been playing Monopoly on my sister’s iPod. I never thought the game to be so much fun! The excitement of having your opponent land on one of your properties and paying you millions of monopoly cash is exhilirating.
I realized something when I played that game. Sometimes when I feel that my opponent is losing and anytime he could give up, I offer him a large amount of...

COUNTING THE DAYS
As time ticks ever so slowly, he looks longingly at the clock in front of him, wishing it would go faster so he can end his day.
The few hours of night between each day was his recluse, his fortress. He feels aloof and wishing it would never end. He stretches the night until the wee hours of the morning, just so he can feel not being in a place where he doesn’t want to be.
“What...

COUNTING THE DAYS
“Friends make everything better.” he thinks to himself, being surrounded with the people he cares about.
Problems become trivial, or even hilarious when he’s with his friends. Endless laughter and serious discussions perpetuate during small talks.

Sometimes he thinks, “am I happy?” Then he...

Kevyn Lettau has an amazing voice, and she could sing filipino songs too!
After the concert, we...

OUR LADY LOURDES
Family and friends came to celebrate my tita’s birthday at Shangrila restaurant in West Ave.
I vaguely remember the place, but I know they serve delicious food!
Bottomless drinks! Sometimes I think waiters keep tabs on how much I drink. How much? About 6 glasses.
If I’m going to eat in a chinese restaurant by myself, I’ll just order fried rice. I can eat it on its own!

EARLY MORNING CRAZY
I must have been crazy to wake up at 6:00AM on a Saturday, to go to U.P. and jog!
Everyone who knows me can attest that I don’t like exerting too much effort on everything. If there’s an easy way to do things, then that’s for me.
So when my friends asked if I wanted to go to U.P. to jog, I don’t know what came over me that I said yes. Maybe it’s the Sagada...
