I feel awful today, really awful. And it's my fault. I just want to run into a fire and die. 

I have nothing against writing stories about entertainment, as I am a pop culture enthusiast. But I honestly never imagined myself writing about celebrities. Back in college, because I was trying to be deep and profound and all, the journalism electives I took were the 'serious' ones- environmental reporting, gender-sensitive reporting, feature ( Read more... )

CEBU, Philippines - It was my first time to fly alone to a place I've never been before. I did not have a decent itinerary, a hotel reservation, a knowledge of the local culture and more importantly, a basic Visayan vocabulary. If my parents knew about this, they would've been scared and asked me not to go. But I thought this was how lonesome trips ( Read more... )

It's kind of escapist, actually. Whenever I feel overwhelmed by a lot of feelings, I go online to listen to my favorite songs. I don't have an mp3 player ( Read more... )

Forget about it. This is not a sociologically profound blog entry about the power dynamics between porn studios and consumers like you.

Yesterday, I was reading an article about how Carly Rae Jepsen's smash hit explains the Euro crisis. Yes babe, it exists. I thought the click-baiting piece of far-fetched crap was beyond me, so I just decided to ( Read more... )

I am a huge advocate of work-life balance. I think the idea of working at the office in the wee hours of the night is just plain sad. As much as possible, in order to keep my sanity intact, I make an effort to still attend quiz nights, parties and debate tournaments even if I've already gotten myself a job as an online journalist.

There's always this lag between the audio and video. Webcam always fails me. Anyway, here's Captain's log number two, full of things you don't need to know. Also, my cheeks. Why is this happening to me.
