I always see these little bastards every single day. They are extremely nocturnal, and they have this impeccable timing of coming out on the worst time. Sometimes, you’ll see Remi and Stuart on the fucking trash bin messing around. While, Antonio swoops out from the canal ready to fly. Man, this is why living in … Continue reading Antonio, Remi, and Stuart
Short Stories
These stories are more than just a story. They’re not only here to entertain or invoke, but these are my realizations and reflections of what I’ve learned in my lifetime.
Ang huling Filipino
Hindi ko alam bakit, pero kinakabahan ako sa mga sumusunod na dekada. Pakiramdam ko na mawawala at mamatay na yung wikang Filipino kapalit sa Ingles. Kada hakbang ko sa mga komunidad pangmayaman at ng pangmahirap, Ingles yung karaniwang kong naririnig. Kung hindi man nag-Iingles maririnig ko may nagtuturo sa mga bata kung pano magsalita ng … Continue reading Ang huling Filipino
Do we really NEED to make something special?
I was having this conversation with my friend about our dreams and aspirations after we graduate. I talked about building businesses, and he talked about being the best bilingual web developer out there. We respected each other's dream, but my friend told me that making a business will be a risky undertaking. I agreed. I've … Continue reading Do we really NEED to make something special?
Honestly, the best decision I’ve made this year.
Earlier today, I've been piled up with tasks that I have to complete within the week. I was eager to finish them early, but there were too many of them. Each homework requires a lot of time commitment, and I felt overwhelmed. I knew that if I backed down here, I'll be right back to … Continue reading Honestly, the best decision I’ve made this year.
I EXPLODED at my brother
it's 6PM, and I'm here sitting in front of my laptop watching my substitute teacher blitzing her way through her presentation. My back was hurting and the only thing that's stopping me from going to bed was me being called for recitation. I'm about to doze off, but my sister, out of nowhere, opened the … Continue reading I EXPLODED at my brother
Why I Used to Avoid Barbershops
When I was a kid, I used to avoid barbershops all the time. Whenever I’m in one, they would always give me the shittiest haircut that made me want to be bald instead. It made me insecure about my hair through elementary and high school, but what can I do? It was all we can … Continue reading Why I Used to Avoid Barbershops
I entered a Weird Rabbit Hole
I was on my desk looking over a pile of scratch papers filled with mathematical equations, when I began to browse YouTube, on my phone, to rest my deflated brain. On my recommendations, I saw a thumbnail of an anime girl with the title containing the word 'Filipino'. Curious, I clicked on the video and … Continue reading I entered a Weird Rabbit Hole
Talent Shows
My elementary teacher decided that we would be having a talent show tomorrow. My classmates were excited, but I, on the other hand, was soaked in cold sweat. I always dreaded talent shows because I didn't have any talent to show off. I can't do anything at all. I can't draw, juggle balls, dance, nor … Continue reading Talent Shows
My Biggest Motivator
It’s been a rough year. My motivation is always on and off, and I always wanted to do better, but never really had the courage to get past my fear and self-doubt. Knowing that I was in a rough spot mentally, emotionally, and physically, I knew I had to do something. Using the lessons from … Continue reading My Biggest Motivator
one year of consistent journaling
It's been a year and a month since I began journalizing every day. Honestly, I didn't even notice. It was only recently that I began to look at my previous journals. Sheesh! So much happened, yet felt so little. I can't even thank journalizing enough. It started with a page a day of random nothings. … Continue reading one year of consistent journaling
