The Comfort Rooms

Out of all the tennis grand slams, it is the French Open that I absolutely love. While most people will say that it is the Wimbledon that is at the pinnacle of the sport, for me, it is the Parisian claycourt grand slam that reigns supreme. Maybe blame it on the slow moving clay courts. Blame it on the beautiful city this event plays host...

Life can sometimes set you up to something you thought would be all that great, but in the end, turned out to be crap. For example, since I didn't like the pork asado my mom prepared for dinner (I just don't like pork and my family is used to me preparing a different dish for my eating), I ransacked the fridge to find a frozen beef patty,...

I felt violated for the TV actress after seeing this TV commercial... You know why? Because I thought the tvc degraded Cristine as somebody who was only meant to satisfy men's (sexual) appetite and desires.

I can't believe we're exactly a week away from the Philippine Presidential Elections. A lot of gossips have spread regarding the elections. Whether the...

It won't be long enough before tennis would find its newest prince - in the form of Ernests Gulbis. This Marat Safin-like Latvian tennis player has got enough to talent to rule the world of tennis one day. You think Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray are Rafael Nadal's rivals as Roger Federer's heir apparent? Think of adding Ernests Gulbis in...

It's another longgg weekend here in the Philippines, and we Filipinos couldn't really ask for anything more (except for a higher pay and a car). One of the perks of being a Filipino is that we got a TON of holidays. Almost every month, we got at least one long weekend. For the student, it would be another excuse to stay up late and catch up on their television viewing. For families, another time to bond, go swimming, watch movies,...
