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.”

Rest III

Retreating should be allowed
Every battle cannot be won
Safe spaces are our refuge
Tomorrow we fight again

Rest I

Relaxing my nerves
Eyes are fully closed
Sleeping and then I
Trek into Dreamland
