From Texting to Gambling?

I’m not really fond of texting. For every 10 text messages sent to me, I answer perhaps one or two of them (assuming they really require urgent answering). Otherwise, I’d call them up or pop them up over YM or MSN. This could be one of the reasons why I can’t text fast enough [...]

You might be saying that I’ve gone bonkers by comparing two games of entirely different genres. It’s like comparing apples to oranges, one might add. Hold on a bit and read a little more so you’ll understand why I pegged them that way.
WarCraft3 is a strategy game while CounterStrike is RPG. That’s a [...]

I feel nervous every time I leave home for work. The recent bombing incidents have made me think of how dangerous things are nowadays. Imagine, I ride the top three forms of public transportation in the metropolis: the Jeepney, the Bus and the MRT. With the recent bombing of the Bus in Balintawak, Quezon [...]

I have been working for almost two and a half years now. Those two years passed by so fast I couldn’t even remember how many jobs I’ve been through all this time. Browsing at my most recently revised resumè refreshed my memory a bit. To think again, thirty months was so long ago already. [...]

In the years that have passed, I would say that I saw the birth (well, almost) and growth of the newest and most frequently replaced home appliance – the computer. Why do I refer to is as a home appliance, you would ask? Well, I don’t know about you but I use my PC [...]

H-E-R-O… sinong hero? Hero Bautista? Bayani Casimiro or Bayani Agbayani? Lemme check… (press shift+F7).. hmm… the word hero means a “brave man” or an “idol”.. ah.. idol.. si April Boy! (ngek!)… baka yung tinatawag nilang “the wind beneath my wings”… (is that another typhoon coming?)
So, why this article about “hero”? Well, for your information, [...]

I Love You

Monday

by: QuackerZ
Words softly spoken that even cupid didn’t hear me cry.
Stars are too far away from my heart to hear of my wishes.
I blow a kiss to the breeze in hope that it may touch your cheek.
As you pass by, you arouse me with your sweet fragrance.
Whenever we talk, your words hit me like the [...]

Few weeks ago, I was looking for a place where I could be able to gather my thoughts as I write an article for work. So, I decided to spend that afternoon at the Starbucks outlet in front of Ateneo in Katipunan, QC.
In my previous visits to that place, it always amuses me how [...]

Pain within a Fantasy

Wednesday

I know weve never been
What people call as lovers
Yet, we both felt deep within
The love we shared last summer…
Cause with the crazyness you’ve shown
My passion has flown
And the glimpse, the touches
You’ve showered
Enveloped me with fire
Coveted my whole body
And burned me with desire…
But time ran fast
Everything has ended
Im living now in the memory
Of the laughter [...]

After which, I accidentally discovered Rebelde.Com and has become a member of it. Now, I’m an active member [...]

I didn’t really have concrete plans of going anywhere for the Holiday weekend. I was thinking of going home to Guimaras but the 4 day-long weekend wasn’t enough and worth it. Plane tickets are skyrocketing and the timing is just not good; besides, I couldn’t get any plane reservations.
And there was I, hoping [...]

With days getting longer and nights shorter, it is definitely the start of summer. And in a tropical paradise such as the Philippines, summer is surely the most awaited part of the year.
People view summer differently.
For students, it means getting out of school and a break from all those term papers, homeworks and teachers’ [...]

With more than three thousand bodies inside the Plenary Hall of the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), the air-conditioning of the establishment was not felt. Yet, no one complained as the final walk on the stage draws nearer by the second. After the Processional, the invocation, and the singing of the national [...]

Our Own

Friday
Feb 22,2002

by: GoRd
Tonight I think of you again
Same as yesterday and so many nights before
I let my desperate longing shape my thoughts
And take me to my make believe world
First, I give my loneliness wings
And make it wander to where you are
At first sight of you loneliness sheds its wings
And takes the form of immeasurable delight
After which, [...]
