Shackled to a Delusion
I’ve had quite a number of conversations with a couple of friends about how people are forged into incredible human beings when given money and power. And by incredible I mean sometimes, no, maybe oftentimes, being totally absurd and ridiculous. In the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment, modern society has fallen victim to a pervasive…

Meet You in Singapore | 2023
(Here I am again, writing something months later from when this actually happened, sorry.) If you have been following me for quite some time, you might well know that me and my friends have this annual thing every Valentine’s season.

End of 2022 | New Year 2023
2022 was like cryptic poetry. A stack of unopened boxes full of mystery. It started with intimately wrapped presents encased under pretty gift wrappers, opening to a delightful surprise at a new dawn. A series of firsts after the long lockdown and life began to restart after 3 years. Work came in full swing and…

To the Beach We Go! | Juancho’s 9th
Road trip Southbound! Celebrated Juancho’s birthday at the beach! (post pandemic shenanigans) Much needed break from everyday and so timely it was also a holiday. We stayed at Casa Praia along White Beach in Punta Ballo, Sipalay. It’s a private beach house with 4 bedrooms (10pax capacity) and 1 and a half bathrooms. It’s fully…

Lonely Thursdays
It was a lonely Thursday when I impulsively got on that plane to find myself. Soothe the trembling hands from a longing so unbearably painful, the noise from my throbbing chest so awfully loud. Is this how it is to love truly? To intentionally be blind from candied lies and dilated pride? Could I even…

Masks Off | Manjuyod Dumaguetme
Photo dump of the first proper beach trip I’ve had in 2 years (since lockdown) and this was actually work related. Manjuyod Sandbar The last time I was here was ages ago, no structures at all, just that sandbar. So fresh! Dumaguete The boulevard now has an extension at the far end of the strip…

37th | Still not moving
Not sure why I can’t really get around to writing anything on here these days. Not considering I have been veeeeeerrrrrryyyyy busy with work, nevertheless I do get off days too. And I mostly spend it just lying in bed and sleeping or scrolling thru my Instagram feed, playing mobile games, watching Netflix and a…

Another New Year
All too often, anger works better than answers, resentment better than reason, bursting the suppressed wounds for even just a little sigh relief, and maybe a little hint of life. The endless whys trigger a migraine. This is how we are alive. This is how I was living. Sealed trauma;A surfaced past;Trying to forget, will…
