The boy part:

( Our little secret )

My parents are still chuckling over the circumstance with which I decided to drive on my own-employing an incompetent driver with bad body odor. I'm glad they're amused, because I definitely wasn't during said driver's tenure. If anything, I can't help but feel it's their fault why it wasn't until I was in my late twenties (oh, shit) that I learned ( Read more... )

I was actually happy when the news came out that Paul Pierce opted out of his player option in favor of unrestricted free agency status. Because in my heart of hearts, I expect him to drum up another contract with the Celtics to see him stay in Boston through retirement. But Celtics fans seem more keen on seeing him leave, and there's still the ( Read more... )

- What's happening to me? I'm caving in and following the NBA now, the cliché thing to do in the Philippines. I started to follow Formula One because it still wasn't the "in" thing to do, but now, it is.

I've been getting bored with my workouts. I've been doing jump rope for nearly two years now, so I'm rather worried that my body's gotten so used to the repetitive movement that my workouts aren't giving me the best results anymore. The foam on my rope's handles are already torn, so I thought I'd buy a new rope. But I've seemed to hold off from ( Read more... )

My parents went to a Chinese fortune teller and then showed him a picture of me ( Read more... )

My aunt wants us to spend Christmas in the US again. While I usually squee at the prospect of going abroad, this time, I'm saying, OH GOD NO. @_@

• I HAVE NO MONEY! And I'd rather spend it in New York!
  
• Freaking, freaking cold.
  
• I love my cousin Anthony (Aunt A's kid) and all, but I'd hate to say it, but he sometimes tests my patience. Anyway, there'll ( Read more... )
