Happiest Batman Day to every fan of the Dark Knight around the world! 🦇 A long time ago, Makati was a place I frequented. Happiest birthday to the personification of evil that gave me life, The Undertaker. Cheers to The Lord of Darkness. 🎂💀🎉 Today, in celebration of my main blog’s third anniversary, I picked three of my favorite written posts (all of them were published in 2025). My definition of heaven on earth? Seeing the @FooFighters rock the Padang Stage at the Singapore Grand Prix last year. I will miss this holiday season. At the same, I’m thankful for it. This 2026, I will do the best I can to update my social media accounts, most especially my Instagram. As you can see, I’m starting all over again here. Please watch this space in the coming weeks. To quote the iconic Robert Downey Jr., “New mask, same task.”

Write II

Write II

While I still have air through my lungs
Relaying my feelings is something I must do
If there’s a chance my letter will be thrashed
That’s a risk I’m willing to take
Exhaling the worry, inhaling the courage


Write (Poetry Series): I, II, III

Sing III

Sing III

Seeking protection from the stronger forces
I need to tell the truth, but I still want to live
Nothing must be kept in thieves’ pockets, but
Give me air and a shield while I expose them

Hurt I

Hurt I

Heavy effort and sacrifice lead to
Unmatched glory and wealth, but
Right on top of the mountain,
There is only yourself
