Ma Mon Luk!
Basta special, me itlog.
I really have to write about the origins of that statement above sometime, before I grow old and forget about it. It has nothing to do with where Sam and I went today though, on this rainy Thursday afternoon. I had long wanted to take a leisurely walk down Raon Street, haven [...]
Paco Park Redux
Finally visited the Paco Park (when it was open), as part of Sam’s mother’s day treat for me. Didn’t have much time to sit and ruminate under the shade of the old acacia trees because we had Maia the whirling dervish with us, but we did get to walk both the outer and inner circles [...]

Stuff for when you’re on the go
One of the niftier things I’ve encountered recently is the Retractable USB Charge Cable, which has versions for the more popular brands of mobile phones and handsets. That’s the one you see on the left (in its retracted state) in the picture above. That’s my tried and tested (meaning old) Sony Ericsson P910i in the [...]
Dream getaway
Dream summer getaway. Camping in Batanes–as the caterpillar has suggested–or walking on the cobbled paths in Vigan. Camping will require the usual sleeping and cooking paraphernalia, tents, sleeping bags, safety cutters, and don’t forget the matches or a lighter. The funny thing is that we’re probably going to forget the lighter/matches, because no one in [...]
Welcome to the Rock (The Corrector)
It is humbling, to say the least, when you visit a site that you know only from history books—a place that you’ve heard about only in documentaries and movie adaptations—and you meet someone who was actually part of history and hear straight from his mouth the events of 40 years ago.
Jibin Arula was a [...]
On the road to Corregidor
We’re looking at a quiet Holy Week this year. We will all be staying home this time. No trips outside the city to some cooler place, no long bus ride going up to the city of pines and lounging around the wooden buildings of Camp John Hay whose architecture which remind me of the condominium [...]
The sun sets on the Nayong Pilipino
I was in fourth grade when I first visited the Nayong Pilipino. I lived with my aunt in Quezon City and went to school at the Mater Carmeli School on D. Tuazon, so the Nayong Pilipino seemed to be a far-away place, several hours trip on the big school bus. Our itinerary was the Planetarium [...]

What I Missed this Week
This is a photo of a posh resort in Palawan. They invited our company on a familiarization tour, as we will be redesigning their website next month.
I put in an old photo just to salve the feeling of regret that I am not there right now, as it was projected to happen last week. I [...]
