Personal Notes: First Visayas Trip of 2012
You can always hear me babble about how nice the Visayas is and how I’ve always considered it my second home. This year, I get to see it for a measly three-days-and-two-nights worth of my summer vacation.         I have no better photo to show you one of my realization than this. How development has turned people into aircon-fanatics and Chowking-eaters. How when asked where to eat after...

Personal Notes: To the land of San Antonio
       Sunrise are best spent with happy people and the beach. I had one of the best view aboard the boat near the land of… ( the spurs?:P)… San Antonio, Zambales. It was breathtaking, with the calm open sea greeting us with a good morning ride as we tour the islands and nestle at Nagsasa cove for almost 2 days.

Thesis Notes: I'm So Happy For This

Travel Notes: Off to Taguig for Mind Museum
Some of the few things I did between thesis and vacation. A night visit to the Mind Museum just before the holiday break last April for Holy Week. We even went inside with a celebrity family (clue: the singer who has a Le Corbusier-inspired house and whose home was featured at Dwell Asia and UZ too). Several things that made the visit worth my time: I paid something less than the rest of the...

Personal Notes: One Funny Shoe-day
      Last Sunday, I decided to wear an old pair of flats just because it had the nicest brown color and it had been a reliable pair especially for long walks and site visits. Last Sunday, it failed me just as we were strolling the land of the splurgaholics aka Trinoma. Luckily, I was so near Aldo and Geleia, and although I promised to still continue my quest of buying the Melissa x Jean Paul...

Personal Notes: Funky Plastic
                                         Image from http://optechusa.com/rainsleeve.html I have the most funny-useless splurge of the day yesterday after stretching my EQ-patience-attention to an almost 2-hour long seminar on what is to be a soon-to-be investment. The OP/TECH USA Rainsleeve for my camera. And this is in lieu of the 5-6k worth waterproof case that I can’t seem to buy....
