Dis/Enchanting Story

It was a dreadful rainy night that kept me stranded at that old stinky mall. After two hours of waiting, much to my dismay, I decided to take the train and delay my plan. I can’t exactly recapture where I first saw him. If my memory serves me well, it was on that train platform track. He was wearing that dark-blue team jacket, the one thing I would...

Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?

I do. I did. Not only with a broken heart, but also with a frenzied, chaotic mind, with a muddled soul. I slept, nonetheless. But I woke up just the same, with that same inconsolable heart. However, at least, I was able to perhaps escape the cruel reality even just for a few hours. And that, my darling, is comfort. ...

With a little spark of hope

To No One, It's been a while now. I haven't talked to you for quite a long time already. I have been caught up of this life's everyday errands that I forgotten there was you. I missed you, you know. How we used to talk endlessly for hours until the sun come shining in again. How there are things that only us can...

36 Hours in Malacca, Malaysia

When I learned that Malacca is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, I decided that this would be the place for my first solo travel (The whole experience shared on this post!). It somehow reminds me of Macau, except for the weather of course. Malacca or Melaka in Malay is considered as the "Historic State" of Malaysia, located on the west coast of the peninsula....

First Solitary Travel

My wanderlust soul has been bothering me for quite some time already. I told the best friend "Gusto kong umalis. Yung mag-isa. Susuportahan mo naman ako 'di ba?" With an...

Hello Stranger

Hello Stranger, I know you, but you might not know me. So let it be known that I liked you. I liked you even from the littlest things I know of you. The way you tuck your hair behind your ears. The number of folds you do on your pants just so it will perfectly fit. The dark, dimmed clothes you always wear....

Monochromatic & Kaleidoscopic

When I started this blog months ago, I told myself that I won't post anything (too) personal here. Besides, I have this 'secret' blog/site where I vent all my dramas and let my alter ego be whoever s/he want to be. Now, that's not much of a secret anymore. But somehow, I changed my mind. Why not, right? The subtle fact of not giving...

Bataan Weekend With The Baes

I have mentioned on my previous post that it has somehow become a 'tradition' of our barkada to have an annual summer getaway. But unfortunately this year, we didn't have a chance to continue that 'tradition'. Being the frequent organizer of our group, plans were made, but everyone was so freaking busy. Our schedules just didn't meet and time is of a constraint. The peak of summer...
