Koreans..are Hot!!!!

Literally, they are so hot, they are up in flames!!!!!! Here's a photo of a frazzled group of Koreans and resto staff trying to keep the hotness down. hahaha


I was having one of those early dolsot bibimbap dinners when this scene happened. The on-table burner for the yakiniku was shooting up flames.. I think because one of them inadvertently spilled oil or something volatile on it..

stop & stare

While I was malling, I came across this lady who was such a headturner. She was so tall, slim and fair-haired... she made me think of how angels probably looked like.

We've Got Chemistry!

Alms & Coke

As I went out of the mall, this beggar and child was positioned in the middle of the skywalk.. I walked hurriedly past them but decided to turn back and take a quick photo.

It serves as a grim reminder of how poverty is so prevalent in our country... and that those of us who have roofs over our heads and 3 meals a day should remember that we are the lucky ones.

my salvation?

I was browsing through shelves of second-hand books in one of the mall shops when I chanced upon this stack :

I am a self-confessed carbohydrate addict... it made me wonder if that book would have helped me control the addiction. heheh

something blue and fishy

I saw him/her/it while me and my cousin were exploring the strange and surprising world that is called "downtown". It was swimming along a small plastic cup being hawked by a sidewalk vendor and I just couldn't take my eyes off it... The photo (blame it on my cameraphone, again!) doesn't do it any justice... The color is a beautiful iridescent blue that transitions to a violet near its head. And look at those lovely fins... they look like those floaty dresses!!

i love post-its!!!

Sometimes, when I'm absolutely bored, or tired or some other draining emotion... a fantastic or weird idea pops into mind. Here is one in action..heheh Stuck on my gf's car window (surprise! surprise!!)

identity vs. role confusion

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

San Remegio, after sunset

I'm not much of a traveler, but somehow, my current priority in life takes me to those out of the way places where I'd normally not go riding transportation I'd normally won't be riding (trisikad, anyone?).

Here is one of my groupmates in one of those rare times wherein we just get to chill out and relax... and eat (sorry, no food pictures).

the world is awesome
