2 Comments100 Days of Writing: Day 1 Just checked in to say I did it. Was torn between planning/researching and continuing writing. Had trouble stopping once I was into it.

Leave a CommentIsang linggo akong nagka-gastroenteritis. A little queasiness, a little low-grade fever, tapos stinging hot diarrhea nang limang araw. Masakit, nakakabwisit. Dahil nagbabadya ang pagbabanyo bawat sandali at nakagapos ako sa tanikala ng sakit ng paghilab ng tyan at pagsisisi sa pagkain ng kung anuman ‘yun na hindi ko maalala, tumambad…

Leave a CommentOr maybe Why It’s So Hard to Blog Again. Yesterday, after getting evicted from Tony’s Estate over at Ruby Road in Ortigas and finding refuge in a random Family Mart, I got Paul and Tin into thinking about what shifted in the blogging landscape when we were in our twenties…
Leave a CommentNatapos ko ‘yung Normal mode ng Stranger Things: The Game app kahit maliit ang phone at attention span ko. Ngayon ay sinusubukan kong tapusin ang Classic mode. Maybe spoilers ahead? IDEK. Kaya ako aliw na aliw sa app na ito ay dahil ang daming aspeto ng kwento at itsura ng…
Leave a CommentWala muna tayo masyadong drama today, matagal ko nang naisulat ‘tong recap ko sana ng pagpunta ko sa National Museum pero lagi kong nakakalimutang tapusin. Pwes eto na, natapos din.
