The Magic of Kurt

My hunger had brought me back to Koreen’s Grill last night. I was drained from what had happened to ZeeWee early in the morning and I basically spent half of my day in the traffic police office to report the accident involving my car and an owner type jeep. This jeep was driven by a [ READ MORE ]

The Street Has A Name: Maxilom

There are streets in Cebu City that were named after those who took part of the resistance against American occupation at the turn of the 20th century. Of these streets, that of Gen. Maxilom is the longest stretch of road that starts and ends with something Osmeña:  one end is the rotunda or the Fuente [ READ MORE ]

Ay Batugan!

Sa susunod na buwan ay magdadalawang taon na ako sa tinutuluyan kong kumpanya. Actually hindi naman literal na pumapasok ako sa opisina namin araw-araw, lunes hanggang viernes, dahil naka-base naman ako malayo sa head office namin sa Makati. Kung iisipin, hindi naman dapat ako mapapagod at mawawalan ng ganang “pumasok” dahil nasa Cebu lang ako [ READ MORE ]

Starting My BirthWeek with Fear

C’est lundi. I’d been waiting for the boarding announcement for several decades. Some of the passengers had boarded their plane already. while others went away because their flight to Cagayan de Oro, Butuan and Surigao got cancelled. I noticed how dark the heaven was and the weather looked terrible indeed. I was with my dad [ READ MORE ]

The Ox and the Wheel

Why of course. I am seeing 2009 as a giant wheel to turn. It’s a wooden cog of sort with a diameter as large as life itself. I could not help but see myself attached to the cog. Me, looking like a beast of burden, a bored ox or a water buffalo who needed to [ READ MORE ]

I Promise to Break my Promises

C’est Janvier. I am contemplating about enrolling into the second module of French at Les Amis de la France. I met my former classmate at a restaurant today and he said that he’s still thinking about enrolling since he has been very busy with work and stuff. My work has also kept me busy the last [ READ MORE ]
