Real Beauty

IF RHINOPLASTY is for plastic surgery done on the nose, what do you call the one done on the ears. My curiosity led me to a new learning! I now know that it’s called Otoplasty, thanks to Arizona cosmetic surgery. But more than that, it led me to the knowledge that Sarah Geronimo is No. 3 Most Beautiful...

A Grave Mistake

IF YOU were to promote a nutrition campaign would you consider commisioning Angelica Jones and Megastar impersonator Ate Shawie?

Angelica Jones Promoting Good Nutrition

INREDIBLE. Angelica Jones Promoting Good Nutrition to students in Alabel, Sarangani Province

In fairness to these two personalities, they are good at their craft — making people laugh. However, I think that the National Nutrition Council made a grave mistake, choosing these two to promote the Accelerated Hunger Mitigation Program.

This is not an attack on the two personalities but a criticism on the manner of entertaining the students who were asked to attend the program.

THIS IS a first for SoCCSKSarGen.

Although we have already meet in some place before, this is the forst time that we gathered purposely to review a restaurant. And we are planning to do it more often in the future.

Well, this is not the review yet. I just want to let you know that we are having fun here. We enjoyed the food. And most of all, we are enjoying the conversations with each other.

Here’s a pic from Kyawster:

I HAD a very heavy heart when I arrived home yesterday. I couldn’t think of anything to ease my tension. Comfort food hadn’t been much of a help.

I was lying on my bed, ready to sleep through it all, when I thought of creating another vector art. Here it is:

The result, I woke up early and was not late for school. I also feel better today than I did yesterday. Read about how I created this vector art on Digital Detours.

I Seriously Need a Break

I’M SO damn tired. (sigh)

No, don’t get me wrong. I’m so happy with teaching. I love the discovery each and every day. What consumes most of my energy are the other tasks assigned to me.

Don’t get me wrong again. I enjoy doing other tasks, too — if and only if I know the objectives of such activities. Sometimes I don’t understand what output I should deliver.

ISN’T DAVAO City the largest in the Philippines?

According to Wikipedia, it is indeed the largest city in the country with a total land area of 2,444 square kilometers.

Contrary to this fact, my trip to Davao last Saturday just disproved that. Not that I measured the land area, but it felt like the city is just so small.

Leann, a college friend, and I went to Davao last Friday to follow-up our yearbook. It was a very long overdue. I doubt if the people at the printing press ever touched it since we last checked it a semester ago.

My First Love

I WASN’T able to control the itch. I really did it last night.

I know what’s in your head. But I did none of that.

My first love is art. I don’t know what led me to physics but it’s art that first captured my soul. Not that I’m good at it, but I don’t think I could remain sane without letting lose my creative energy.

Well, I’m not going to show you something really spectacular. And I don’t expect you feel as ecstatic as I am about this piece of crap art.

I HAVEN’T seen this commercial on TV yet. The last time I watched TV was…

By the way, I saw this commercial for McDonald’s on Shari’s blog. And, geesh, did it shock me! That just happened to me last Sunday. Well, not exactly the way it happened in the commercial, but somehow, mine was quite like it.

First love never dies. Well, that could be true. She just told me I’m her first ultimate love right at McDo but unfortunately, we can’t be us…for now.

Guess what, she texted me that she cried when she had seen the commercial. And somehow felt a twitch, too.
