Flashback

Nursing a crushed big toe has its benefits. I decided to play around with my blog and update it a bit.






To start off the year, Donna and I finally tied the knot. Our special day fell on January 14, 2006. There’re just so many, wonderful things to be thankful for, especially my dearest, beautiful wife.






We spent our honeymoon in picturesque Panglao Island Nature Resort in Panglao Island, Bohol. Bohol’s a nice place to spend a vacation, if one’s looking for a more peaceful alternative to Boracay. Sure, you’ll find party beaches like Bora in Alona Beach, but Panglao Island Nature Resort (it’s a mouthful) caters to people who’d like to enjoy a more intimate and private vacation. We loved the location, our honeymoon cottage, the pool, the breakfast buffet, and of course, the beach!

I've been having my own Macross Flashback lately. Last week, I saw the movie "Macross: Do You Remember, Love?" . It's now up there on my favorite movies list after watching it for the nth time. For me, it's the ultimate space opera, a love story incredibly woven around explosive space battles and the survival of the human race. Released way back in 1984, the production was certainly top-notch, even considered ahead of its time. To continue my little Macross "revival", I got to listen to one of Mari Iijima's special project CD's, "Mari Iijima Sings Lynn Minmay" . Ms. Iijima is the voice actress behind Lynn Minmay and also happens to be her singing voice as well. Seven tracks make up the CD with six of them being re-arranged, updated versions of popular Lynn Minmay songs "Angel's Paints", "Love Goes Away", "Zero-G Love", "Cinderella", "My Boyfriend's A Pilot", "Do You Remembe

Drama-rama sa Hapon!

This was one pet peeve I've always had. At work, we usually tune in to GMA 7 around lunch time to catch Eat Bulaga! and the rest of the Drama-rama block. The current slew of shows consists of Daisy Siete, Muli, Princess Charming and capped-off with the Koreo-novela rerun, Full House. Okay, before anyone starts commenting that I've got waaaay too much time on my hands, we don't really "watch" these shows. We just listen to them and go on our usual tasks. It's just been a habit that has made our afternoons more bearable and less boring. Believe me, listening to them is fine. Just fine. So, how about a lazy critique? Daisy Siete Season 14: Siete-Siete, Mano-Mano The latest season of the "phenomenal" Sex Bomb Girls opens with what seems to be an action-packed theme song. I think the story revolves around the girls trying to get into a URCC -type fighting tournament. Throw in a case of bad stepfamilies, evil, conniving co-workers, a little dancing, hunky

Afterthought from a very strange experience...

A couple of years ago, my wife's friends encouraged us to join a badminton club. Since I've been thinking of getting serious with the sport, we joined without much hesitation. Just like any club, we met and played with several folks, some became very good friends. Aside from that, we were able to hone our skills thanks to training sessions and tips from member-coaches. Last Saturday, I was one of the players from our group who participated in the annual inter-club tournament. Players from their respective mini-groups called pocket e.b.'s (eye balls) were matched with other pocket e.b.'s from the club's ever-growing roster. The whole idea of the event was meant to foster camaraderie among fellow members and not so much on whose team had the most wins. Alas, somehow the whole event reminded me of an inter- barangay basketball league gone bad. Well, at least no such things as fisticuffs and the dreaded patayan ng ilaw (setting up a free-for-all by turning the light
