After 31 Years of Marriage
"Love survives all things... yes, it really does." Mama: Ang sekreto kang maugmang pag-iribanan, dai mo pamati sa agum mo na mas matibay ka saiya. Kung dai, yan ang saiyang magiging DOWN-FUL (remember that story?)Me: Down-FUL?!:)...

Humor Through Grief
Walking home after our last class, my friends from law school and I noticed the reflections from the searchlight darting here and there across the blackened sky. As usual, my friends couldn't resist blurting out a wisecrack, and so Bumble said, "Hinahanap na naman ni Batman ang brief nia." That made us laugh, but searchlights do not remind of Batman or his briefs. It actually reminds me of my Inay's wake. It was August 2003. I was going through...

Just One of Those Conversations
Yesterday evening, I was fiddling with my new phone (courtesy of my sister who took pity on me after she saw my busted phone - and of course, I don't mind wringing her out of her hard earned money) when Paige approached Erbe who was lying next to me watching TV.

Not AGAIN?!

That kind.Anyway, earlier this afternoon, we were on our way to pick up my busted cellphone from the repair shop when we had to stop because of the heavy traffic along the road in front of Bichara. Again, the car windows were open. When suddenly, a hand suddenly shoot up in front...
Blabbing
Went to Lago del Rey today. Surprise, surprise! The water was remarkably clean! We had a lot of fun kayaking. Kris and I whopped Erbe and Beng's asses during our kayaking races. :)Have been watching the last three season episodes of Dawson's Creek. Bittersweet. Kris wanted to buy a couple of Karaoke DVDs and I came across the DC dvd's. I got her to buy them for me.Thinking of driving to Manila on the 19th. Still thinking about it - I dread...

The 50 Peso Bill Story
Parked beside E-Mall, we had the windows of the car down. Intent on watching Yaya crossed the street, I was surprised when a hand suddenly stretched out before me. Turning, I saw this man, with a glazed look on his face, crouching beside the car's door. He was mumbling and he was looking down but he kept waving his outstretched palm in front of my face. Obviously, there was something seriously wrong with the man.Alarmed, I turned to Erbe, "Ba!...
