*keep your cool, win or lose* It's easier for a man to take defeat graciously than to remain humble in times of triumph. We all have this competitive spirit. We fight to win. We give our all to achieve our goals. I mean, c'mon! I don't think anyone joins a race to finish last, right? A competition always has a winner and a...
My blog has been an out-pour of emotions... bad emotions... RANTS to be more direct. And let me have a check, I got tired of it. Not with blogging but with venting out rants! It got me idle for a lot of times, like, seriously, whoever wants to be around with negativity? Not me! I've had too much! I haven't yet mastered the...
I've watched this NatGeo Show Brain Games today about vision and focus. The show has explained the difference between the central vision and peripheral vision. And how central vision can be so high-definition but has a very narrow field of vision where the peripheral vision has wider and non-HD field. So, before I start to get too nerdy in...
HATERS GONNA HATE Would it make you prettier, happier, and better person if you keep bashing people? Does it make you stronger if you post hate messages on your wall, website or whatever social media you're using? Would it solve the issue if you keep hating the world? With the social networking sites allowing us to express our emotions fully with maybe 60-70...
I dedicate this post to my Nanay (grandma) who'll turn 88 this Monday (May 27). Yes, she's turning 88! One of my earliest childhood memories is of Nanay preparing a good-old Pinoy breakfast. She's setting up the table with my rice topped with Star Margarine, a piece of fried fish (her favorite matambaka) minus the eye (coz...
IN THE BEGINNING I almost cried myself to sleep but I stopped. I shouldn't. Crying would only give me puffy eyes and a throbbing headache when I wake up. I know it would help but I'd like to keep everything in, torturing myself every second. Trying to deny and struggle with my contradicting thoughts. I'm not good in making decisions. I pretty much...
We often tend to look for ourselves out there. Looking, contemplating, digging the lands like our true selves are buried deep down or lost in the past or a treasure that need to be found. I once heard someone said, "One's self is not something to look for, it is to be created."...
I haven't gone to the cinema for for than three months I guess, I'm too lazy to line up to the mall and it seems that I'd rather grab some good food than spend a few hundred bucks for an hour or two film. Well, we all love some feel-good movies, and here's my unofficial list for the best must-watch films worthy of...
I'm no religion expert and I'm not really a religious person (I did not grow up conscientiously following religious practices), but there are too many things that I've learned from many different people lately. So, I thought maybe, it's about time I write something about it. It's not uncommon when I spend some time with friends, that every time we run out of...
2012 had been the toughest year for me. For 366 days, I've been through a hard-hitting roller coaster ride. It was a year that I've been to the highest of highs and lowest of lows. Here are some lessons I've learned from last year: 1. Lies hurt, truth hurts worse. Some people say that don't ask what you don't want to know....
