Why is it that so-called followers of Jesus Christ in the United States are so driven by personal gain?I mean, look at this: Going to Mass in the Philippines, where I am from, priests and laypeople who take turns on the pulpit do not even remove their masks in order to minimise contamination.But in the USA, everyone on the pulpit insists on removing their masks. Do they not understand that

Napapaisip ako nang madalas tungkol sa mga balimbing na (bumalik sa) pangangampanya para sa mga mismong kinatawan na kanilang siniraan mula noong 2015 hanggang 2021: PNoy, Mar, Leni and Kiko.

I write this at 5:30 am Central Time on Sunday, 7th February, in the middle of a snowy winter night. I let Mahal keep sleeping because he has been up for most of the night (I slept early) and his loud snores are helping to ground me. But I still cannot shake off the lingering cold feeling of night terror.You see, I dreamed I was driving myself to my childhood weekend/summer home in a

If there is one thing that is both boon and bane of my existence, it is that I am incredibly, stupendously self-aware but also incredibly, stupendously impotent to fix it, and not for lack of trying mind you. And honestly, real talk: everyone who says "all it takes to fix it is discipline" can go fuck themselves over. If it were that easy to create and maintain that discipline, I would have

Hello everyone. Life has been, well, life.  I admit, I feel a lot like being a punching bag for circumstances or even fate. I have began hating the career I once loved. The interests I used to have have changed considerably; many of them I have done away with altogether. My parents have gone older and greyer almost overnight, and I made enemies out of many friends. And there are at least 3

If in case it isn't obvious yet, I am a very serious person who is also serious about fandom. This is an impressive discourse by an academician, specifically a psychologist, about the relationships and idiosyncrasies inherent to communities built around both popular and obscure contemporary culture. I wish I could recall who sent me the link though...! http://pop-music-research.blogspot.co.uk/

I don't think I should link to it anymore, and I tried to stay away from this issue, but as I've gone in and out of the cosplay scene I have also grown sick and tired of the crazy double standard -- let's face it, most humans of the XY chromosome in cosplay fandom WILL post photos of scantily clad girls who haven't even met these fappers. And then there really is no way I can keep my opinion

As some of you already know, I'm a subscriber of the gyaru lifestyle, which endorses coloured (usually lightened) and very well-styled hair, sexy-cute make-up especially focused on the eyes, skin-baring clothing styles, insanely high heels, equally insane nail art, and an over-all image of being nouveau riche to the point of being garish about it. I find that it compliments my desire to enjoy

So my great fantabulous friend Nissie posted a fabulous, well-written argument about how women have always and continue to receive much less benefits than the men. It shames me to say that my religion (which I have picked out because it has helped me cope immensely with the events of my life) is conservative to the point that it has dictated how women should act, dress, speak, walk, eat,

It has been a year. So in the course of 12 months, 52 weeks, and 365 days, I have kept myself busy with work and with life. I've earned some new clients, and held on tightly to old ones. I have had two assistants assigned solely to me, which has taken a bit of getting used to since I'm hardly mentor material, but I think this has helped boost my productivity. I have witness my older sister

So, apparently here we go again: Yahoo! Philippines News: Cabbie arrested for passenger heist; victim says robbers molested her. I've tried to get in touch with the victim here, but she won't talk to me. Which makes me sad, because her story is also all over the news, just like mine was in that day. And now, there is this new development:  InterAksyon: GET OUT OF JAIL FREE: Senate OKs

Days after I was able to post this, we caught one of the four men who held me up. His name is Pablito Manatad. He was supposed to be driving TYL 409 on 22 Dec but he was Badong/Man #1. He's from the Visayas but lives in Quezon City. He is muscular and heavy-set but has a big gut. He also has a rose tattoo on his left shoulder/arm, and is apparently part of the mostly-Visayan Scorpion Gang that

I wish this were untrue, and I wish I could undo this, but it needs to be shared.  At around 7:00 pm I withdrew money from Security Bank Annapolis GH branch, near my office. At 7:30-ish pm, I was hailing a cab. I only remember the cab being a beat-up white four-door sedan car with plate number TYL 409. I can't recall who the driver was at the time and the name of the cab as written on

I love this time of the year because it's the one time I see my mum dressed up in costume and be completely out of her element.

I'm sorry, blog, I know I've been neglecting you, but all the other things I planned to write about will have to wait because of this.

The political situations in Egypt, Bahrain, Libya and Syria have kept me riveted, but the effect is that of a terrible plane wreck - you don't like

While I can't completely say I'm a full-fledged Filipino rocker, I was weaned on the legendary 1990s bands Eraserheads, Rivermaya and True Faith.

Today is the first of two days of Cosplay Mania X. This year is extra special not only because of the two-day event, but moreover because it commemorates ten years of cosplay in the Philippines.
