On Firefly, Serenity, Gollum, and General Fangirling
My semester ended several weeks ago, April 30th, if I remember correctly. I wasn’t really expecting to take summer classes this time since I’ve been studying my ass off since the Summer of 2006 nonstop. And you know what I think about studying. I hate it. I don’t believe in studying. If a person were [...]

Freaking hilarious. XD
Got it from an email forwarded to me by my sister.

Inspiration
I drew some inspiration from these Roadtrip Nation videos. [Yeah, I also want to apply for a RTN grant, but I can't afford to spend my summer on the road. Also, my friends aren't interested in it, either. ]
I’ve been having these quarter-life crisis conversations with friends, lately. Most of you are graduating [...]

D’Arvit, I used to be awesome back then!
Well, okay, that was rather conceited. But still.
I logged on my Blogger account just a few minutes ago and found two unfinished drafts happily sitting on my dashboard. Nostalgia is an amazing thing. I have decided to reproduce them right here, just like Christopher Tolkien published his daddy’s unfinished tales. Bad bad analogy, but whatever.
So [...]

Part 1: Of Magic Lists, Positivity, and Getting Your Heart’s Desire
You see, The Secret is no secret.
That’s what I’ve been telling everyone ever since I’ve heard of this book’s “ingenious concept”.
“The Secret reveals the most powerful law in the universe.
“Without exception, every human being has the ability to transform any weakness or suffering into strength, power, perfect peace, health, and abundance…
“The Secret explains with simplicity [...]

Another Reason to Hate Imelda Marcos
My mom and I were talking yesterday when suddenly, she said something that I have never heard of before:
“Pinabugbog ni Imelda yung Beatles nung andun sila sa Pilipinas,”
[Translate: Imelda (Marcos) had the Beatles beaten up while the group was in the Philippines.]
And boy, was I shocked to say the least!
My brother came in [...]

Yes, the Title Is the Most Difficult Part
I have to agree with Maddy. The title is my least favorite part.
Coming up with titles is an art form. It should be.
When writing these blog entries, I always write down the title first. However, I often come up with a long title that would pretty much sum up my blog entry, then later [...]

Stewie Speaks Tagalog
There is this video of a deleted scene on Family Guy that shows Stewie speaking four seconds’ worth of Tagalog. He sounds really hilarious–the way he pronounces the words is just so typical “white kid”. Anyway, take a look at it:
Okay, then. Let’s process what we just saw.
That video clip above was a [...]

Eek!
“Eek!” is when you realize that creepy old[er] men have an unusual interest in you… :O
Being mistaken for a thirteen year-old [no kidding, majority of the idiots here think I'm thirteen! :O] could probably bring out the inner pedophile in these creeps. *shudders*
I never liked talking about this, and I don’t think that I’ve told [...]
