I live in an extended family. Having 12 people in a single house is a way of life. Sharing rooms, sharing bathrooms, sharing a home with 11 other people is not so strange for me. Christmas is loud and eventful and busy every single year. Traditions are abundant and followed religiously. We had a lot… [Read more…]
I’m not the type of girlfriend who lets her boyfriend carry her bags for her. I’m also not the type of girlfriend who would drag her boyfriend out to watch a pinoy romantic film much to his dismay. So when Obie offered to accompany me while I shop for clothes, I was super hesitant. He… [Read more…]
It’s convenient how there’s so many aspects of myself that I juggle in projecting. Hahaha So for the gamer (games!), the writer (journal!), the reader (novels and comic books!) and the girl (shirts and make-up!) in me, here’s my wishlist for Christmas 2010: For The Gamer Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition (PS3) Uh, I’m not… [Read more…]

Like most (insecure) girls, I am also guilty for judging men as being shallow and narrow-minded. Before Obie and I decided to be together, one of the major questions that kept coming up was “Why me? I’ve always thought I wasn’t your type” This question being brought up (again and again) by yours truly. To… [Read more…]
Last night I did something I never thought I’d do with my boyfriend. The day started with a little Fallout 3. I’ve been buried in the game since last week and boyfriend goes ahead to try it. He fumbled a little with the controls, completely understandable since the game really is better played on the… [Read more…]
Note: This is a one shot story. In a world where time is exploitable and consequences are reversible, The Powers That Be conduct regular “Time Resets” whenever they find it appropriate to do so. I just wanted to imagine how it would feel like if my life can be recycled like that. What would I… [Read more…]
Let me give you 3 scenarios: Scenario 1: I was in the ladies room doing my lady thing (haha yeah) There were two other girls beside me fixing themselves in front of the mirror too. I didn’t know them. I figured they were probably from the office adjacent to ours. Then I felt one of… [Read more…]
This was quite the long read. As usual King obsesses over the little details and really piles on the backstory. It has the same theme as Dreamcatcher; a group of adults meet up again after being separated for so long to fight in one epic attempt to purge evil. Of course, someone dies early on… [Read more…]
This one was an easy read. It almost felt like cheating. I’ve read the original George Orwell novella back in high school so reading Fables: Animal Farm was like a pleasant trip down memory lane. I loved Animal Farm back when I was a teenager and recognizing the plot and the characters and the mechanism… [Read more…]
For my first book, I decided to pick up The Vagina Monologues. It has been sitting here in my room for a long time now and I’ve been meaning to read it but never got the chance to. I finished it on the way to work this morning. I knew that this was going to… [Read more…]
