A simple thank you for the 10,000th hits

Finally, my site’s hits reached the 10,000 mark which I’d consider my blogging milestone. So I guess everyone who made it possible – promoter (wifey), readers, fans, critics, friends and even spammers (?) deserve a Thank You!!! From someone who once was known as the “Time-Killer” and has now opted just to [...]

The story of the feather pillow

I have been longing to tell this story that I heard from the previous parish priest in Manggahan, Cavite. And now is just the perfect time. There once was woman who approached a priest and said, “Father, I need to confess about having spread gossips about my friend. What should I do?” The priest [...]

Of bad job interview and bad neighbors

I woke up today with a hope of a very good day but it just wasn’t meant to be I guess. I was supposed to bring my car to Makati for an exam in one of the companies I’m applying for. And one of the compelling reasons is just about being paranoid about the [...]

Humbled by the ROI

During yesterday’s Management Accounting class, when our professor said, “Class, just a reminder, make sure that by the time your reach your STRAMA defense, you should already know what an ROI is all about.” He then added, “…because if you don’t, it’s either you are bobo (dumb) or your teacher was.” I was amazed [...]

Enjoying our last full day

(Bolinao: day 5) It’s a shame but we decided to leave tomorrow instead of Saturday because we need to get Marcus to the doctor because of his colds – although he has shown significant recovery. It was the main reason why we had to cancel our plans to go on tour to other places; [...]

A vacation like no other

(Bolinao: day 4) This title, and a short unfinished sentence, was all I’ve written yesterday afternoon when we decided to get out of the room to take a look around the seemingly empty resort. From our cluster we can just hear some newly arrived group of people occupying the resort’s huts facing the beach. [...]

Bolinao: a town trying to recover

(Bolinao: day 3) This morning we decided check out the town of Bolinao to see if we can buy some of our snacks and medicines for Marcus who unfortunately developed colds. We went out actually hoping to find some decent supermarket or at least a fast food restaurant – for the first time I craved [...]

Power is out in Puerto Del Sol

(Bolinao: Day 2) The steady hum of the air-conditioning stopped and while I was anticipating for the electric fan to automatically take its place, it didn’t. Suddenly, I realize that I wasn’t home. I immediately remember us arriving very late last night after an almost 12-hour trip coming from Cavite. I was on the other [...]

400 kilometers later

(Bolinao: Day 1) On Thursday, we were informed of our reservation confirmation by a representative of Puerto Del Sol resort in Bolinao. She said over the phone that although the whole Bolinao is still out of power after the place was ravaged by typhoon Emong, they have power up using a power generator. Damn, that [...]

WordPress.org gaga

The page is still bland and the subtitle says it all. I’m in a desperate situation right now with regards to getting my self-hosted WordPress blog up and running. The last time I mentioned that I got it, I realized soon enough that it isn’t working the way I expected it to be. I [...]
