Getting Past the myopia: Concretizing goals and making things happen.

I am writing today about a topic I feel strongly about, a topic that has upset some braincells and brought me down hopes of lackluster patriotism.
Instead of complaining and whining about them, I chose to write about them in the hopes of clarifying their intent. The core truth is that certain Filipino values

A Toast to San Miguel

I had a great weekend.
Tasting San Miguel beer after a loooooong hiatus feels fantastic.
Much like tasting water  in an expansive desert.
*sigh*
I love the Lenny Kravitz songs. I love the wonderful 90s music.
I felt so happy I wished I can wrap up that memory and open it again on Christmas day.
No fancy trippy music. No fancy [...]

This is me. Missing the Weekend.

It’s tuesday morning. I’m stuck in my dream, lucid dream of this white immaculate structure hanging over a hilltop. It has sloping sides and rain drenched steps.

Some Stuff to get busy with

As you must’ve noticed by now, I do hold a fulltime day job, but once in a while, it’s fun to dip myself into something creative – not needing to please any clients / but rather simply fulfill artistic expression.
