Modern day attrition
Broke by a thousand fees. Death by a thousand cuts.
IMO
I have very strong opinions on social issues which I work on, as oppose to having loud ones.
Baguio is cursed
My last 4 visits to the city I once claimed my home has been marred by misfortune. My trips to the city had to be cut short but someone dying my car breaking. I initially chalked it up to bad luck when my highschool batchmate caught a stroke while I was there. The following year, […]
EMUdeck on a Steam Deck OLED
As much as I liked the RG405M, I found it couldn’t emulate the arcade games I wanted to play to my liking; Primarily some NAOMI/NAOMI2 games and a couple switch games. I decided to skip other more powerful handhelds like the AYN Odin 2 or the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro and go straight to the […]
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
Spotify / Youtube offline downloads

Lemons and grapes
I exchange my time for money, rates are usually dictated by where you’re from and who you know… Not so much what you know. The gap between what I think I’m worth versus how much people are willing to pay me is usually great, but not as much as my need to provide and hopefully […]
The dichotomy of my outlook on life
I believe I won’t grow old and I feel that I don’t have enough time to do everything I want to accomplish in life. But ironically I do everything I can to extend the longevity of my body and work towards being financially independent for if or when I grow older. Call me a hypocrite, […]
The appreciation finally dawned on me that life is full of uncertainties; And I find myself searching for positive certainties to get me through that fact… Regardless of how fleeting it may be.
Trading views
I traded a corner condo unit on the top floor in Manila for a house and lot near the beach in a Province where I have no relatives and barely know anyone. It’s been one of if not the most daunting decision I have made so far and by all accounts, seem to be one […]
Bearings
Treading down South of sadness.I look back North of youth & nostalgia, as the westward winds remind me of my woes. I am reminded that life isn’t east of equality.
Off the ground
New ventures are akin to lifting heavy shit off the floor for me. It’s those first few centemeters that are the most challenging… Or I would like to think so. But it gets progressively hardet when as you progress. One of the lessons sports (distance running & powerlifting) and my career has taught me is […]
