First Day in P.I.
After flying for about 10 hours, I finally arrive on the other side of the world in Tokyo. Already the culture shock is creeping in, as I'm waded through a see of people waiting to pass yet another security point. Apparently, the Japanese (actually, Asians in general) …

Another Blog Redesign
As you can see, things look a bit different around here. I was bored one day and decided to give this place a makeover. I've been planning this for a bit now, and while it's still not complete, I'm pretty happy with how it's looking. Thanks to A List Apart's Randomizer, …

So This Is the New Year...
And I feel pretty damned good about it. On January 1st, yours truly finally landed himself a girlfriend, and what a girlfriend! Her name is Maggie, and she's absolutely amazing and gorgeous. Two days later, I started my new job at elephants & ants. At the cost of a bit …

Nag Luto Ako! (I Cooked!)
On Saturday, I spent most of the day preparing for a dinner date I had with the lovely Maggie. It took me a while to decide what to cook, and in the end, I went with lumpia, pancit sotanghon, and leche flan. All Filipino recipes, and all delicious. I started by …

Charice Pempengco
Being 75% Filipino, I'm an obvious supporter of Pinoys in the spotlight. This girl, who was only 12 years old when she did this performance, makes me so proud that I cry sinigang tears whenever I watch this. Mabuhay.

After a big hassle with airline companies and travel agencies, I finally have my ticket back to the US. I'm quite sad about it but also releaved. I really wish I could've made it work here in Paris, and I'm quite sure it would've been possible if I gave it a go, but I …

Van Damsterdam & Coologne
What can I say about my trip to these two wonderful cities that can't be said with a little bit of vomit? I mean that in a good way, because I was having such a good time that I had to blow chunks just to convince myself to come back to Paris.
Amsterdam: Left Centraal …

Tahitian Pasta, Vietnamese Candy & French Wine
Last night, my neighbor, Caroline, invited me to a dinner with her friends. Since the dinner was taking place just outside my door, there really wasn't a way she couldn't invite me. Score!
Since August is when most Parisians take their vacation, most of them had just …
