A rock goddess' song for the angels

I write this short song as a farewell gift to rock goddess Anabel as she begins her journey to the spirit world. The angels are all eager to meet their lead singer who would spread the word of love and pain which only humans feel.

Staring out the window and waiting for the sun to rise
I puff my last cigar and drink my last shot of rhum
Another day, another life to live

Waking up with bloodshot eyes and dry throat
I try to sober up myself before i kiss my kid
Another day, another life to live

I grab my guitar and start singing my song
Letting my soul free, screaming my heart
Another day, another life to live

I see familiar faces in different places
All admiring me and my tattooed body
Another day, another life to live

This goes on and on, losing and loving
I never saw the beauty in it
Not until now that i face a new life to live

Eastwood New Year Staycation

Sorry that I have not been updating my blog post (as if someone reads it  LOL). It's been almost three years I think since I last wrote here that's why I made it my New Year's resolution to fix up my blog and write more often. Don't be surprised if you see stories about my adventures for the past few years since I will be doing a lot of catching up. Let me begin with my Eastwood New Year Staycation. Why Celebrate New Year in Eastwood?  I chose Eastwood City because it is closer to my place making it more accessible and there's a free New Year Countdown concert. I was considering Mall of Asia since they also have a free concert, but I already felt tired just thinking of my travel time and traffic. I originally booked a hotel near Ayala, Makati thinking that they still have a street party. After doing some research, I think they already stopped doing it for a few years now so Eastwood it is! Where to stay in Eastwood Eastwood Richmond Hotel is the most ideal p...

MyHealth Clinic Takes Care of My Health

Getting sick is a real pain in the *** but to wait for a long queue in discomfort and end up with a list of expensive medicines to  buy would definitely make anyone feel more sick! I was glad I have a health card from work so that lessens my worry about the check up and laboratory expenses. I usually go to Medical City Clinic in Trinoma and Waltermart for the check-up but my experience there was not really that good especially in Waltermart, Munoz. The nurses there and attendants seem so laid back (which is a better term for being lazy) and busy chatting with each other. I waited for a long time (around 30 min.) just to have my Maxicare approved and after that I went to the nurse's station to give my papers but the girl was busy on her phone so the guy beside her placed my paper on her table and told me to wait for my name to be called. So I waited for my name to be called and it was almost an hour. I was really wondering why it would take that long just to have my blood extracted ...

Teresita's Halo-Halo and Palabok: Perfect Pinoy Merienda

My mom always brags to me how delicious the halo-halo is at Teresita's that's why I decided to give it a try after a hectic Saturday of hopping from Waltermart to Trinoma and back to Waltermart again. I was supertired, hot and thirsty so the perfect snack would be halo-halo. Teresita's of San Fernando is located at the ground floor of Waltermart in North Edsa. It is near the entrance and supermarket which makes it hard to miss. Parents can also relax there while kids play at the nearby mini-play area.  We ordered 2 regular halo-halo which is worth P85/each and palabok worth P85 too.  I was expecting to get the typical halo-halo with 8 to 10 ingredients, but was surprised to just get three main ingredients which are sweetened banana, macapuno and leche flan plus milk and ice of course. It was all new to me so I was not satisfied at first. I was waiting for the crunch of the pinipig but there was none. As I eat it, I started to enjoy the smoothness of the texture an...
