I think I need a hug.
I was going to post another emo entry, but I decided to read a story by writtenbyhand first, and I instantly felt better. Why am I always happiest when my head is in a world other than this one? Sometimes, I feel that I like book and movie characters better than real people; fictional characters can hurt each other, but they can't hurt me, at least, not ( Read more... ) -
An Open Letter to PNoy, from F. Sionil Jose
Very rarely am I moved by journalistic writing, especially of a political nature. However, this letter written by the great F. Sionil Jose was too poignant to keep to myself ( Read more... ) -
I hate cliffhangers.
There's really not much more to say. I do absolutely hate cliffhangers. It stresses me out. I need closure! Jeez, I'm talking like this is about life and death. Well, I suppose it is about life and death - in a way. After all, during summer, I have no life outside the stories I read and the films I watch. The vacation months are the only times of ( Read more... ) -
Summer lovin'
Today is the official first day of my vacation (okay, actually, it may have been Saturday - but I'm not counting weekends because they're already mini vacations). It feels wonderful to go about my day not having to worry about papers I was too lazy to do, or tests I forgot to study for. So here I am, listening to Rod Stewart croon "... you'll be ( Read more... ) -
Turn it all around or throw it all away
So, I'm lying here on my bed listening to Kris Allen's song (read, song in the singular) and trying to inspire myself to work. Judging by the fact that I am here sharing this internal argument I am having right now, I have failed to strike inspiration into my heart. Why is it that writing for leisure is so easy, while writing for school is so... ( Read more... ) -
Wonderful
I thoroughly enjoyed Alice in Wonderland. Actually, the movie is one of the few that have left me sitting in the theater wanting to scream "MORE!" Truly, it was unexpectedly amusing. I mean, waaaaay back when I was a kid, I hated the cartoon Alice - it was too wonky, too surreal for me. But this time around, I did enjoy watching it.

Purpose - it's that little flame that lights a fire under your ass.
As of the moment, purpose is precisely what I lack, so I'm pretty much content to lie in my bed with a book (or five) to keep me company. Surprisingly, it's a light week for me. I just need to interview a fashion blogger for my weekly article, and interview a congressman for J102. And study for my film exam. And write my Psych papers - but this ( Read more... ) -
Because I need to scratch an itch
Once in a blue moon, I do get that itch to write. I feel like this past week held enough significance to the entirety of my being to warrant a blog entry (LOLWHAT? XD ( Read more... ) -
When I say jump, you say "How high?"
Quick post about Camp Nivea! Held, last March 5-7, 2010 at Punta Fuego, Batangas, Camp Nivea was super fun. I don't really have lotsa time to talk about it right now since I have a gazillion papers to write. How about a picture first to tide over this insane urge of mine to post something about this awesome goodie- and memory-filled trip? (Or you ( Read more... )
