Es muss sein

In “The Unbearable Lightness of Being”, Tomas is a highly intelligent man with a woman problem–he has too many of them. And despite the the companionship and dedication of his wife Teresa, he’s always had a problem keeping away from the warm beds of his mistresses.
I feel the same way about this blog. Although I [...]

Quick update

I’m fighting a losing battle against insomnia. I’ve been finding it hard to sleep before 3 a.m. since I got back to my beloved archipelago, and it’s been causing some strain in my work schedule. I feel like as though my four-month stint in France left me ill-prepared to begin another grueling semester in Ateneo. [...]

So close to the end

The problem with having such an exciting new life is forgetting to document it.

Try practicing breathing exercises, love.

Androgyny for work

It’s a half-past two in the afternoon, and I just woke up. Sleep is a luxury I haven’t had in a long time, and I’m making the most of it to make up for all those sleepless nights last semester. Enough about that, though.
God knows how much I hate being idle, and to remedy my [...]

Greetings from JTA Hell

I’m supposed to be doing my part for our Marketing final pass due Monday, but I can’t find the energy to continue writing about promotional and advertising campaigns. And so I’m here, blogging. My Stat tracker is telling me that I’m getting quite a number of hits from people searching “JTA Ateneo” and “JTA Hell [...]
