    ·

    Slumbering like a baby in a tiny room, I awoke as my aunt shook my left shoulder. I didn’t hear myself scream, but the neighboring rooms might have panicked, and laughed as I shouted too loud. Perhaps they were wondrin’..what happened to me. It was a quick, all mixed-up dream, but I was able to…

  • Saved by the Ash

    ·

    While tons of stranded Britons must be cursing Eyjafjallajoekull Volcano’s eruption, I was saved by it from reprimands due to late action. Though the volcano erupted last week, April 14, to be exact, the ash left airspace unfit for travel. And how did it save me? I was supposed to book a German doctor’s flight…

  • Bite This Cookie!

    ·

    Offered at AED 650 (7,906.89 Php), I was at first hesitant to buy it.. ’til I grew hungry. I grabbed a bite of LG’s cookie phone released sometime in December, 2008.

    “Did you catch any fish?,” a little yet persuasive voice had me looked back and… down. Those big, green, questioning eyes with thick, curly lashes made me pause completely. I had to control myself from gushing..what a cute tiny lady! Then she spoke again, “Could you take these?” She meant the two air-filled swimming gears…

    Pity Killua. He only follows Gon. Since Gon has a strong desire to find his father. It actually marked his adventures chronicled at Hunter X Hunter. Not only kids are lost at choosing. Not only kids are  propelled by dreams, either. One is supporting another. There’s nothing wrong with that. But I found Killua envious,…

    Yeah, I rebel against you, fate as you were called, destiny as you were hailed, mighty as you  see yourself, haughty of lives you gleefully toss and turn… toss and turn..

  • Early Impressions of Dubai

    ·

    I thought the AC was still turned on when we exited the arrivals at Dubai International Airport. Weh, Issa, it’s natural breeze. Most Filipinos we’ve talked to told us we were lucky to be greeted by the cold wind, luckier still to board Emirates Air- a direct flight from the Philippines. Dubai Airport terminal 3 is solely…
