When Filipinos think of the bestest beaches that can be found in the country, instinct will tell them to direct their thoughts and their eyes (if you're holding a map and looking through it) to everything south of Manila.Practically all of the islands between Luzon and Borneo have wonderful coastlines to offer both locals and foreigners...

one of these ladies is a Korean, a Chinese, and a JapaneseA question was raised on Yahoo Answers, by, obviously a non-Asian person (the avatar was that of an African-American guy, so I presume that it was an African-American male who asked the question).He asked what was the difference between a Chinese, a Japanese, and a Korean face.

Man, I'm so not in the mood to do blogging!The past few entries here have become all personal to me.I think I'm on my way to being fired. Yeah, It's a company decision to cut down on manpower. You see, I work for an online auto parts company. We thrive and we survive as long as our ranking stays on the upper echelons on the SER's (search...

I had a strange dream a few nights ago (Thursday night to be exact).I was extracting some 9-12 teeth on myself! My gums felt itchy and they were bleeding and I just took all of them off. I did not mind what was happening then because I thought all of those teeth would grow again eventually.I knew there were 9-12 teeth on my palm because...

He definitely is the country's most celebrated, most influential, most admired and most popular sports figure in the country today. He could even be the most popular Bisaya right now. Definitely, he is the most well-known of all Mindanaoans as of late.
He can possibly unite the country even just for 12 rounds (or even less). Inspire young...

I tried to deviate a little bit from posting articles about sceneries, skylines, and comparisons of different places on earth.I watched the 3 city-Federer/Sampras tennis matches during the weekend. Those 3 matches were the bomb! But anyway, that’s not the reason why I will be blogging right now.Since I was in the spirit of making people...

Reasons are aplenty on why I chose to do blogging.Here are my reasons (I don't how many would this be!):1. I create my own world through my blog2. I always wanted to have my own page that I don't have to pay for web hosting3. Pre-designed templates are heaven sent, a great way to express myself4. I make new friends and acquaintances (like I'm serious)5. I can express myself freely here, to talk about current events, personal...

This will be in answer to a previous blog that was posted by one of our blogger friends, Pisanu of Bi.S.E.A.N regarding the tourism slogans of Southeast Asian countries. In fairness to what he has written, I don’t think that the Philippine Tourism TV Ad is not really that visible comparing it to Thailand’s and Malaysia’s tourism ads.This new Filipino Tourism TV Ad that I got to watch recently has captured my corazon. This new...

I watched the AMA’s (American Music Awards) the other night. Of course, it was a delayed telecast. If we had live telecast to Manila from LA, I would have happened to watch the show at around 11am Manila time.Of course, there was Pinoy Pride going on as I saw Nicole Scherzinger (I hope the spelling’s right) sang with Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas. Since I was glancing through different channels (I was also watching Heroes...

I’m gonna be posting a new set of skyline pictures.Throughout Asia, only two skylines have lorded it over the region, its Hong Kong and Singapore.
