Ecstatic

I received the results of my IELTS exam (held last March 17) today.
And I have not prepared much for it. But God is great. :)

An equally good read.

We the restless

We the restless

This is a very fitting post.

Procrastinate

Planning the Holy Week now
Ride a ferry 8 hours.
Trip to the finest beach;
Take a dive off a cliff.

Roam the islands nearby
Shriek with the actresses beaming g'byes.
Wade in the waves.
Tanned - I am summer's slave.

Boracay, I will see you again soon. :)

Storytelling 24 March 2012

A letter I sent last September 9, 2009 to the CSR Core Team. The activity was Saturday Academy for Pangarap Shelter Boys:

‎5 CUES a decent woman should know

A good reflection from my good friend Jhal Fojas. A bit conservative, if you ask me. But some good points though. Good points.

For those single out there, these few things should help you, a LOT
1. if a man of vices (who does drugs, drinks and/or even just smokes) starts courting you- you should reflect on your choice of friends, either you have provoked him to like you or you’re with the wrong company
2. if a man tries to touch you (in anyway, hold your hand, squeeze your shoulder and worst tries to kiss you) without permission- you should reflect on how you dress, either you showed too much flesh or you posted pictures of you in facebook or any site which makes him think he can easily get something from you
3. if a man tries to flirt with you (in whatever form, in person or virtual)- you should reflect on your attitude about strangers, work mates and other acquaintances, either you seemed so gullible that he thinks he can get away with it or he had seen you flirting with other men
4. if a man freely talks about his indecent behavior- you should reflect on your actions, either he sees you as someone who would do the same indecent things or he thinks you have been with a similar man as him
5. if a man does all the things enumerated- you better run because you’re not with your prince charming but a beast who will prey on you whenever he gets the chance

An alternative from Meynard.

#5. if a man does any/all of the above - check first, are you in a bar? are you drunk? is he drunk? ... if you answered yes to all, congratulations! you've ventured into uncharted (more like undocumented/hazy-memory-'coz-you-were-stoned) territory.

around the World in 8 hours

Shenzhen, China (Window of the World and Shenzhen City)

Mini Eiffel

 Here's a fun day. Eight hours was not even enough to roam China's mini-World.

We were tired after three days of nonstop walking. Thus, we were late prepping up on our last "gala" day. We woke up 8AM. An hour late for our itinerary. Nevertheless, we were giddy for a day in Mainland China.
