The first week of Project Arbiter has been exciting to say the least. It has been an incredible week filled with many failures and realizations about myself and the process, and I want to talk about it. Project Arbiter's first project is Executioner. Essentially, Project Executioner is a character building project where its main focus … Continue reading Habit of Execution

Project Arbiter
At the time of writing this, I am a 23 year old working as a software engineer who has a stable job and a normal life. It wasn’t always like this. Life was more chaotic back then and this was the dream of peace I longed for. Now, I want more. I’ve always been ambitious. … Continue reading Project Arbiter
Go with the flow, but guide the flow
The biggest thing that I've learned in the past few years is to never force anything that you don't want to do. Go with the flow as they say. Although I do believe that going with whatever nature has in store for us incredibly liberating, it's also the reason why I became complacent, unproductive, and … Continue reading Go with the flow, but guide the flow
Moving on
It's really hard to confess to someone, but it's even more difficult to move on. It's been a very long time since I had feelings for another woman, so it was really hard to move on. Eventually, I learned through a friend of mine to never reminisce. Never look back on the good times, never … Continue reading Moving on
Giving a Flower
I was in the office holding a rose in my hand. I had all the intention to give the person I like flowers ever since the beginning of the week. I stood outside the room where she was eating and I felt my breath hastening. I felt my body shaking and my arms sweating. I … Continue reading Giving a Flower

For the longest time, I've always asked for permission. Do you want this? Do you want that? Want me to get this for you? Do … Continue reading Just Realized
Writing Spree
I don't know what took over me for the past couple of days, but I'm on fire. I've been consistently writing every day, and this is one of my goals. I've always struggled writing outside of my daily journal entries and crash-and-burn sessions, but this time? It feels like I'm not forcing myself to write. … Continue reading Writing Spree
Unlucky and Dumb
Today has been really tragic. My phone screen got destroyed because I misplaced it while I was doing my lifts. The chicken got spoiled because I left it under the sun - forgetting that I took it out in the first place. My thumb hitting the blade of an electric fan. Yeah, the day's going … Continue reading Unlucky and Dumb
Protein Sources
Last night, I was taking my time researching for other protein sources. Why? It's because I don't want to eat the same thing over and over again. Hell no, I'm going to eat boiled eggs, wheat bread, and chicken forever. I want variety. I want it now. So, I looked up for some and some … Continue reading Protein Sources
Counting Calories
Ever since the fiasco looking at my weight, I laid on my bed thinking about the number all the time. I can't help but think about it. Where did it go wrong? When did it all began? Where did I get reckless? Regardless of any question that bubbled in my head, it's suffice to say … Continue reading Counting Calories
