Think Out Loud

After enduring a very hot and humid week, it's suprisingly refreshing to be greeted at home with a relatively cool day. It's just what I need after an extremely stressful and sleep-deprived week. Once again, I was able to sleep for more than 7 hours and there was no pressure looming at me when I opened my eyes. I even had my favorite...

The heat has officially affected my brain. I was moody, irritated, and felt like my head was gonna explode due to extreme tension. It didn't help that I was cramming big time on something BIG. So I'm really disappointed and worried with myself today because I know I didn't pull it well together. Add to that, my roommate is sick (so I'm playing...

Summer is in the air... and in this room. It's terribly hot in here. Angel told me she's going to burn a lot of calories just staying in our room because of the annoying heat. I sure hope the calories and fats get burned because I'm planning to go on a semi-diet to get my old shape back. Old shape meaning flatter stomach...

Today was a very tiring day. I feel like great amounts of energy was sucked out of my body. I guess that's what thinking does to people. It was only today when I got to wrack my brain cells again. We had our pre-retreat activity the whole day and boy did it involve a lot of thinking. But on the bright side, I...

I'm reading a couple of blogs about med school from people connected to me through mutual friends (yes, like that in Facebook). And no, just because I coincidentally read about med school and accidentally saw last weekend my best friend who is currently taking med school are not signs for me to even think about venturing into the medical jungle. I. AM. NOT....

I wonder when I'll be comfortable telling my story to other people. I'm not really good at talking about myself. In fact, the only place I do so is here, in my blog. And I'm not sure why I'm hesitant sharing my stories to people who are not even strangers to me. I mean yeah, I talk a lot sometimes and I share...

Mikey Bustos is an extremely funny guy with a really big talent. I hope this video of his makes it even just to the evening news. In fact, I think the Department of Tourism should hire him or pay for his Filipino Tutorial Videos. He's really good. Here's his latest vlog. This time, it's a music video and it's very original (the lyrics,...

Great. I thought that the quiet days in the dorm are over because our workmates from Davao are now living with us for a couple of weeks. It's just their second day here but the situation in the dorm is like nothing has changed. I'm still by myself, donned in front of a laptop, entertaining myself. But don't get me wrong. There's nothing...

Dear Lord, I really want to improve on photography. I hope you would give me the equipments and the resources to enroll in a photography class. I want to take pictures of your creations and show the world how beautiful they are. Thank you, Lord. In Jesus' Name, Amen :) ...

Even while I was still studying, the idea of working in the place where I lived never appealed to me. For me, home is home and the stress of work should not tarnish it. Work should be done some place else. It is the time when I can explore myself  and discover what more I can do. It comes to being an adult, and...

Thia Megia has a lovely voice. Unfortunately, it's not cut out for a competition such as American Idol. In singing contests, voices have to be strong and flexible. It should be ready to take on any genre-challenge with a strong grip and a confident stride. Contestants also have to be current and relevant to stay in the competition. Confining oneself in a box...
