On my flight back from London to Amsterdam last December, I met Kelly. She’s a Canadian girl, living in Vancouver. She went to the Netherlands to work as a nanny for a while.

This past Thursday I invited Marlon, Paul, and Rex to have a walk and sight-seeing in the futuristic open-wide shopping center and unique displays of Bonifacio High Street, commonly known to many as Serendra, the Fort, Bonifacio Global City. For me, the unfinished beautiful condos surrounding the place and is nearly at my place make its name like my "Kapit-Bahay". Cool, right?Ludicrously, four of

The best thing that came out of UFC 78....Dana White announced Anderson Silva will fight Dan Henderson at UFC 82, currently scheduled for March 1, 2008 in Ohio. Most of the MMA community saw this as the best possible challenge to Silva's reign over the thin Middleweight division, but up until this announcement, Dan Henderson didn't seem to agree. Dana has once again shown a fighter the green light...God bless him.You wanna make a bet....

Despite spending the whole morning searching for somewhere to go over our Christmas break, we’ve still not settled on anywhere to the extent of booking it. At the moment, we’re looking towards places further south than in the original plans in that we can get away for longer for around the same amount of money as we could when we were considering the likes of Germany or Switzerland. So, in the frame at the moment is Ibiza which comes in at the lowest price for the flights and the apartments but means that we need to book into a hotel in Barcelona before and after the holiday that costs almost as much as the apartment we’d be staying in for the week in Ibiza. Also, Ibiza doesn’t have a great image and the apartment in question isn’t in a great town on the island. Next up is Mallorca for which the flights are more expensive and so are the apartments BUT we don’t need the night before and after the holiday in Barcelona so the overall cost is much the sa

Britney Spears reported to the Van Nuys jail last night to be officially booked on hit-and-run and driving without a license charges. Britney is said to have been “smiling” as she entered the jail, and is described as having worn “a short black dress and black jacket. Vital information. And no, she did not have the pink wig on when she entered the jail - she only wore that before. Britney Spears probably thought she could wear the pink wig inside, to make a funny mugshot, but her lawyer was there and no doubt told her to at least try to act like a sane adult. By the way, the LAPD says they will not be releasing the booking photo. So my whole week’s ruined now.

With all the time she’s been spending in court and with police, Britney Spears should think about moving closer to the courthouse.  This time, she was taking care of some unfinished business. The “Gimme More” singer showed up at a Van Nuys police station last night around 9pm, and left 45 minutes later. ...

I just paid 10, 870 Php for the ticket to Bangkok and it seems clear that it will be all systems go for the Worlds Universities Debate Championship. Heck, I’m not even thinking about the pocket money! The registration covers all the meals, so if I want to be frugal about it, the 480 USD tab for the tournament should be enough for the entire trip.   Again, thanks for making it happen. I’m going to the Worlds! Woohoo! Viewed 1413 times by 739 viewers

Yesterday I paid off my holiday around Europe for real. I forgot that I also needed a few nights in London, so booked myself a couple of nights either side of the holiday (I assumed Celeste didn’t appreciate me throwing my sexy parties in her flat). So that leaves one thing to sort out. This blog. Fact is, I have been feverishly posting a few “Time independent” articles that will be scheduled to post whilst I am away and may post if/when I get time on my travels, but even so - I’d like a few guest posters on here. What do you get for Guestposting? I’m planning on doing a revenue share. Basically, Adsense impressions on your post page will be split 75% (to you) to 25%. A link to your personal blog, plus a few other links that you put into your posts. For those of you who give a damn about certain things - My blog is a PageRank of 4 (which is good). You get to look at my sexy admin panel (trust me, it is gorgeous). The reason I am asking now is because I w

Finally, I have confirmed our vacation plans this December and booked our airline tickets. Since we need an open jaw ticket, flying to Hawaii and coming back from LA, I need a travel agent to do the job. I figure out that it's too complicated doing this online. The travel agent just confirmed that we would be flying by Delta airlines with a 12 hour transit in Korea before enrouting to Hawaii - 12 hours!Well, I must not forget to make arrangements for our medical travel insurance, an important must-have in all our trips. I was reviewing the Cover my travels and was impressed with the coverage that included many medical conditions that were often not included in other insurance companies. A good and comprehensive coverage means less worries, headaches and unnecessary stress. In order to ensure a smooth and pleasant vacation, it pays to evaluate a good travel insurance so that all your travel needs can be taken care of.

I have taken the plunge and decided I shall go to Orbital 2008 (the 2008 Eastercon). Having missed out on more than a passing glimpse of Neil Gaiman at Hay-on-Wye this year (and at Forbidden Planet) I thought I would try to be more organised. Of course the last time I did see him all I could manage to do was stand there like a tool. There are other guests including China Miéville so there’ll be loads of opportunities for me to make a fool of myself, my blogging fingers are twitching at the thought even as my ego plummets. So anyway I’ll be there. Hopefully I’ll actually manage to sell something before then.

LINDSAY LOHAN promised a magazine journalist her wild ways were behind her just hours before her May (07) DUI arrest, it has emerged. In an interview with Elle Magazine 36 hours before her police encounter on Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, the Mean Girls star insisted prying paparazzi had given her an incentive to quit partying. She said, "They're looking for me, to like trip, so they can be like, 'Oh Lindsay's wasted and driving drunk.' And that's not it. "I wouldn't violate... I'm much more responsible than that." Lohan's May arrest followed a minor car crash. She faces charges of misdemeanour hit and run and having a blood alcohol level greater than .08. In July (07) she was arrested for DUI a second time following a high-speed chase in Santa Monica, California.

Another of my cousin is joining couplehood and if god's will by August 2008, a married man he will be. Yan, who is Rey's one and only younger brother got engaged to her lovely girlfriend, Shikin on Saturday, 28th August 2007. Amongst the many girlfriends that he talked about, I think Shikin and him made a lovely pair in both of their uniqueness and the way they complement each other made a right combo. Although this time round, I was given time off and not taking care of the gifts exchange for the engagement ceremony, as this was what Yan said to me jokingly..."Pearl, after what you did for Rey, you deserve a one year break!!!...so rest well for next year..." Well, whatever happens, we hope this young couple will be blessed with happy endings. Pato was working overtime for half day on Saturday, so I met him at Vivo City after getting some stuff for our present to Yan (which I left to the last minute of very bad time management from my end...tsk tsk tsk...) So by the

Yikes! What has Steven McEvoy done to me? Now I feel insurmountable pressure to be interesting. Well, here it goes, my answers to another book meme.It's just too hard to limit myself to three, so I'm going to name six in each category -- three fiction, and three non-fiction.Also, I never include the Bible in these kinds of lists because it's disingenuous on my part. In my own life, Scripture hasn't impacted me the way other books have. It's because I'm Catholic, I think. I grew up hearing the Scriptures read every Sunday at Mass, so when I finally did start reading the Bible, I had a familiarity with it I didn't know I had, and my first encounter with the Bible was an attempt to put together all the episodes I heard during my years of attend Mass. That being said, if I were off to spend my days on a deserted island, the Bible would be one of the ten books I'd take.(Am I being interesting yet?)Name up to 3 books you think everyone should read.3 Works of NonfictionSt. Augu

Since Thursday Night Gumbo is a blog about books (among other things), this meme I found over at Book Reviews and More seems like a good one to participate in.1. Have you read (up to 3) authors recently you want to read more by?(1) A. G. Sertillanges. I'm almost finished with his book, The Intellectual Life, which teaches one how to engage in independent thought and study in much the same way Mortimer Adler's How to Read a Book teaches one . . . um, well, how to read a book.(2) Henri Daniel-Rops. A few months ago I read his short life of Christ, which I passed on to Woodward. It's was short (about 200 pages), but very good. I have his Daily Life in Palestine at the Time of Christ sitting on my bookshelf, and I'm really interested in reading his multi-volume series on the history of the Church.(3) Rudyard Kipling. I'm a stay-at-home dad who is home schooling his kids, and so I plan to use the opportunity to give myself the education I never had. I'm halfway through The Jungle Book

Okay, I'll do this. I told Vehige earlier that he would have to handle all of Thursday Night Gumbo's meme responses and pop-psych personality profile tests because I find the whole phenomenon a bit in-bred and self-absorbed. He responded that I was becoming...well, let's just say that he encouraged me to "lighten up" So it's off with the grumpy-old-man hat and on with the good-sport blogging fraternity hat, and away we go. (Actually, this might not be so bad. Thursday Night Gumbo is, after all, a blog about books, so I might well have gotten around to expressing most of these opinions separately in other contexts anyway.)1. Have you read (up to 3) authors recently you want to read more by?Last summer in the pages of the New York Times I came across the best sports essay I have ever read -- "Federer as Religious Experience," by David Foster Wallace. Then just a week or so ago, Amy Welborn linked to a short story in the New Yorker that I found very provocative. Turns out it
