January 2019 Articles

Thirty days ago, we were just celebrating New Year and now it’s not even new anymore, unless you’re like me who thinks that tomorrow is another year, full cycle and celebrates it nonetheless, minus the extravagant dinner and fireworks. What it’s like to live in a well-governed country (BBC) There are some policies I don’t…

2018 Reading Challenge- Results

With all the changes that happened in 2018, I only managed to read 33 books, 9 of which were manga volumes–I didn’t included the other mangas I read using my MangaRock app because it was honestly tedious looking for Volume Titles in Wikipedia. Had I included all of them, had I been patient enough, I’m…

Not Wired that Way

I get excited thinking about concepts the same way I get excited when I receive pens as holiday gifts. It doesn’t show much on my face but yes, apart from roller coaster rides and books, there are things that get me excited. I may not understand the concept of YOLO the same way as the…

Presidential Announcement: I got hitched.

To be honest, it’s been a month since I got hitched. This story, by the way, is meant for my future child’s consumption and for my own amusement when in the future I need to look back and not exactly for the public eye (which doesn’t explain why I have posted it here in the…

October 2018 Articles

October has been a big month for my career and personal life. It’s amazing how I can still catch up on my reading–that makes me amazing then. LOL I finished Filed Under: 13 Suspicious Incidents and The Buried Giant, two of the books I had bought in MIBF (woaaah, I am reminded of how time…
