It’s a City... and It’s Global!


Where am I? And why am I being pretentious?! 

Because I’m at Bonifacio Global City! Never liked this place during the times when it’s only attraction was the once celebrity and socialite ridden Embassy. I never go to such places.

Mama's Halloween Kitchen


Tonight, Mama prepares to configure her witch’s brew. Divine, she huffs and she puffs…  in her kitchen she prepares to cast her spells in welcoming the merry making of the dead. Tig-kalalag in Isabela, Negros Occidental – the festival of souls commercially known as Halloween, nationally Araw ng mga Patay, religiously All Souls Day. But with a vague idea of what the Roman Catholic dogma defines on the subject, or lacking the knowledge of how it colored the culture in foreign lives, I simply expect this day to be a concert of local gastronomic delights, all cooked up under my Mom’s baton – luhag in Hiligaynon, sandok in Tagalo.

The Legs Review


When a friend of mine came to Cebu to conduct a seminar, I played my best role again aside from being bitch, diva, and bully. That is, being a good host.  Friend requested to be shown the gay bars of Cebu, and I obliged. 
I just have to make this declaration: I am no fan of gay bars. The paid gogo-boys wear too much make-up and their costumes are so predictable. I would rather sit through a Chinese acrobatic circus than watch these men contort their bodies in redundant dance moves as they bid for my attention and paper bills.

Ode to Laughter on Campy Zombading


I insist, dear five readers, that I don’t do movie reviews. That’s because I’m so bad at naming names and their personages, and I dread the science of film making as much as I detest teaching it. But for days now, the itch to write about a comic breakthrough (I told you I can’t do movie review) has been quite disturbing. Before I down a bottle of Caladryl Lotion, I blog.

Zombading Patayin sa Syokot si Remington, started with a curse...
