After a long hiatus from writing, I will return to regularly posting here in my blog. Its quite obvious from my first sentence that my writing has diminished immensely. My writing skills would surely improve as I continue adding post after post. But for now, please bear with my grade 3 style writing. I missed this. Updates on my life: (Chelle, I apologize for copying your format. Labyumuah!)

Lie down Comedian Tuesday night, I found it difficult to sleep. Must be the 3-half mugs of coffee I downed. I channel-surfed and found "Who's Line is It Anyway?". Last episode I watched before that was the one with Robin Williams in it <--- Funny as Hell. This nights episode = Laugh Trip Galore. Drew had this game where 2 commentator comedians would ask a comedian reporter(played by Collin)

- Excerpt - A certain shopkeeper sent his son to learn about the secret of happiness from the wisest man in the world. The lad wandered through the desert for forty days, and finally came upon a beautiful castle, high atop a mountain. It was there that the wise man lived. Rather than finding a saintly man, though, our hero, on entering the main room of the castle, saw a hive of activity:

I started playing tennis again. But not with this tennis ball. ehehe. If my memory serves me right, my last game was 5 years ago. Not bad for a comeback. (our team won!!!) We (neighborhood barkada) played mixed doubles in a game Ikki(my teammate) dubbed as the Game of all Games. I was able to negotiate most of the rallies. I won several volley-to-volley exchanges (think atari). Basketball,

My Holiday Experience - Part 3 12/26/02 Lena and Tom Watrous' Thanksgiving Party Fernwood Gardens is a party place enclosed in a 40-foot dome. The setting is splendid. Rainforest type gardens with lagoons, waterfalls, fountain, gazebo and exotic birds and fish. A live swan adorns the eye-catching fishpond. The place is simply perfect. Rain is not a problem because of the dome. Dressing

I like this.... HOW TO STAY YOUNG (George Carlin) 1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctor worry about them. That is why you pay him/her. 2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. 3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle.

She Wasn't There Whenever I come in late for work, I usually peek inside the Accounting office thru the cashier's window. I want to make sure my boss won't see me come in. This morning, I came in late. (yet again.) I took a peek inside and saw that my boss wasn't there. I saw Cynthia (my officemate) busy with her work. She was wearing a cream blouse and her hair was pony-tailed (is there such

"No" you say. Think again. Deep inside you know your friend would do you a favor in return. Deep inside you know it would be convenient for you to give away your coins. Deep inside you knew you got

Does your name begin with: A? You are not particularly romantic, but you are interested in action. You mean business. With you, what you see is what you get. You have no patience for flirting and can't be bothered with someone who is trying to be coy, cute, demure, and subtly enticing. You are an up-front person. You often don't get hints & you never pass any. Brains turn you on. You must feel

Grenouille and Renard Once upon a time, Grenouille went to a party. It was fun. All his friends were there. Lots of food. Lots of beer. After a while, one of his friends started giving him cup after cup of beer. Nonstop. Grenouille did not refuse. Tipsiness was inevitable. Grenouille went to the veranda. There, he met Renard. He thought “What kind of a woman’s name is Renard?”. Grenouille and
