Green and blue is for you and you
MY COLOR IS MAROON, oh yeah. In a manner as subtle as a ten-wheeler cruising down a highway (meaning, not very subtly at all) I managed to taint my beautiful maroon blood with a dash of De La Salle green. That’s right. My family is probably shuddering in distaste (they all consider themselves pro-Ateneo and anti-La…

Intermission
I’ve got so many topics queued up in my blog to-write roll; here’s a little self-involved breather. It’s (almost) Valentine’s Day! And as such, I’m going out with some college friends for a Valentine’s Eve dinner of some sort. However, it’s also Ash Wednesday, so I had to opt out of some bonding activities (i.e. going to…

Prose/Poetry: Memory
I was in Chuy and Kiko Eatery when this happened. From Pablo C. Bueno’s wake. Dated 11 March 2012 from my pocket journal, unedited. One The Eternal Adoration A million steps and a thousand falls are etched onto the skin of these floors and walls. Each gentler and rough step, or hesitant footfall (your first step,…

Places: Isdaan
(Isdaan crosses the thin line from simple restaurant to a “place”. It’s not just a place to find food –it’s a restaurant slash fun park and all galore. While it lacks gourmet food and a cubic meter empty of people, Isdaan makes more than enough for it with an abundance of “barrio fiesta” food, color and…

Heat, Holidays and Hold ups
‘ello. Heat. Glorious heat. Summer lovin’ feels more like being burnt to crisp as the days pass. It is incredibly easy to sweat while doing nothing. It is so dry –even the rain, which rebelliously and sporadically comes even this season, is not helpful at all. The ground is wet, but the atmosphere remains NOT…
