Coming Home (part 7) : Escape from DK

Recent events(need I say drama) has left me drained, and de-motivated to the core. I need to get out of this Valley of Despair I'm in, as my career counsellor would call it, before I get burned out. My Home, where I know I can reach out to friends, my brother, and cousins... is my place of power I guess. I need to find myself again, and heal.

Coming Home (part 6) : There's no place like...

Home... I've always had a love/hate relationship with my house. At the end of it all, it is where I draw back, hide from the world, regroup. I heard a lot has changed since the last six months. A few months back I had fought to keep it the way it is, and I've lost a lot of those battles. But we'll see if it's still the house my Dad built, we'll see...

Coming Home (part 5): Bookworm Joe

Yes thats me! I am the epitome of geekiness, so of course reading would be one of my list. Reading has always been an excape for me. I can't wait to once again get to my room, grab a book and escape.

Coming Home (part 4): My Punching Bag

It always helps to know that at the end of a rough day, you can come home and start releasing the stress on this poor bag in your room. That punching bag has actually saved me from a lot of confrontations. It's good catharsis, recommended for all the emotional people out there.

Coming Home (part 3): Relaxation 101

Manila is the new City of Bath, I should say. With the numerous competing Spas, among other places of relaxation, one would never be hard-pressed to have himself pampered. And the cost is minute compared to the all-expensive DK.

Coming Home (part 2): Glorietta, the shopping capital of the universe!

Malls are the center of attraction and community in Manila... And I LOVE to shop... Enough said :-)

Coming Home (part 1): My Playstation 2

Being a hardcore gamer, leaving my PS2 was like leaving my left arm. I so love that piece of miracle :-). Back home, I always make it a point to get the latest games, checking out all the usual outlets on a weekly basis. Even now, I get my brother to check the shops for the latest and greatest games I can read reviews of. Did I mention I once caught fever because of muscle pains... that I got from sitting for hours... on the cold floor... playing my PS2. Try to beat that!

Coming Home : Prologue

I fly back home on the 30th for a bit of a vacation. I can't wait!!! So in anticipation, I shall be posting the things that I love about my home city, MANILA. Thats one thing every day from today until I come home. Watch out!
