Kids can be the cutest during their most candid moments. A group of primary schoolers were told: "if you were to come face to face with God, what would you tell him?" Here's what they said they would ask: "Dear God, did you mean for giraffe to look like that or was it just an accident?" ''God, instead of letting people die and haveing to make new ones, why don't you just keep the ones you got now?" "I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that ok?" "Thank you for the baby brother but what what I prayed for was a ... Continue Reading...
My Partial, Not-So-Yearend Foodie List
everydaycafe My favorite coffee in Manila is not Starbucks or Seattle's but this small & obscure fastfood stall at the basement of Juan Luna Shopping Mall in Binondo called Everyday Cafe.The resident barista Tony expertly brews his coffee from a Japan-made siphon machine which is similar to the one found in Ongpin's Panciteria Lido (understandably so, the owners used to be business partners). The fastfood center is also popular among shoppers and Fil-Chinese denizens for its $1 heaping plates of pancit and equally-cheap chicken cordon bleu rolls. Sharing ... Continue Reading...
Things Happen When You Least Expect It…
1. Bugger! :( I missed my Blog-O-Rama deadline for the first time. It's a mortal sin for any writer and I finally succumbed to the pressure. I wish I could blame my damn new DSL connection for having all these spyware, or the fact that am being smug because am getting all these Xmas bonuses, or because I simply lack the time.

My ’22 random things’
My blog friend Toni posted this more than two weeks ago and since I've been rather uninspired in updating this site (while awaiting my DSL connection at home), I had fun doing this.

A sucker for ‘psychics’
How much of your life would you leave to fate and how much of it would you leave to fortune-tellers or self-proclaimed 'psychics'? I didn't realize how my close friends were drawn to these things until I told them about how my resident psychic M accurately predicted some things in my life and they would badger me: "So who is she? What's her telephone number and errr, how much?" My kids would kill me if they knew Mom would pay P600 to have her fortunes told when they could have two gallons of ice cream instead. But I do see Madame M every semester or once every ... Continue Reading...
