  • Studying in Minutes

    Begin.  Hello. The time is 23:02, the day Thursday, and I have yet to study for two exams: a long test in Geology and a quiz in History. Both have heavy weight in my current academic career, and yet here I am about to cram it. The reason? I’m not really sure; maybe it was…

  • Twittery Tuesday

    I don’t even know what I’m doing with the post titles anymore. =)) Just posted a review of TDKR and another short piece on my faith feelings. :) Several things have happened in my life. Unfortunately, I can’t be bothered to write properly, so here are some fragments of awesome instead. Last week was a…

  • Opinion: Hello Homily Part Deux, also the Church again

    Well the homily we heard during the 3 pm mass at Greenbelt Chapel certainly became more substantial last Sunday (though it was still very hard to pay attention, so I didn’t).  Given that our country holds the most number of masses, we should be experiencing prosperity…  60-70% [sic] of the country is Catholic, why then…

  • Movies: The Dark Knight Rises

    The fire rises. 

  • Friday Fun Day

    It has been a suprisingly fun day. Well, not surprisingly. Pleasantly. IDK.  I’m very thankful to the ChuChu and Chums (hahahaha what a wonderful name) and to the inner secret ninjas + super friends group. So confusing. But whatever the case, the presence and actions of these wonderful people made my day. I went to a…

  • Art: Notebook Designs! Part Un.

    For the past two weeks or so, I’ve taken to transforming plain Muji notebooks (five pieces at P215, 30 sheets each) into not-plain ones with a Sharpie pen, my trusty Staedler set, pencils and some other miscellaneous gel pens.  (Note) I love Muji. :) I especially like their packaging and the design of the store…

  • Awesomeness ongoing

    Or in-progress. OLYMPICS. Haven’t watched the opening, but I will. Judging by the tumblr/FB/9gag pictures, it was pretty brilliant. Hello to the Queen, Beatles and Voldemort. KNOWLEDGE. A stray comment in the Facebook group of my block got me reviewing my past geekery. Hello (again) to Sindarin Elvish. Will you welcome me back? Maybe this…

  • Movies: The Amazing Spider-Man

    It’s been a few weeks since I’ve watched Spidey on screen; it’s about time to post a review, since The Batman review”s following on my heels. Also: it’s Spider-Man, not Spiderman. 

  • Opinion: Hello Homily

    Let me rant about the church again. Sigh. The following words (bar the dictionary definition) make up a real-time commentary going inside my head and onto my phone. | Greenbelt Chapel, 28 July, 3 pm mass Homily n. a sermon or discourse on a moral or religious topic; a commentary that follows the reading of…
