An Observation: Today's Kids Can Mingle Better

Ayel

WHEN I first joined a national event, not so long ago, I have always been intimidated by participants from other regions, especially those from Luzon or those from big cities. That is but natural for a boy from a small and almost unknown province.

Later on, as we do tasks together, I realized that there wasn’t much difference. In fact, I felt like we from the provinces have richer experience.

Managing Depression

Ayel

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

Ayel

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.

Small World

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.

Will I Have a More Colorful Lovelife in 2009?

Ayel

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.
