This is where Dad used to play during his pro pelotari days. An elegant Art Deco structure that has been part of Manila's history for as long as I can remember. Its Sky Room was also once the playground of the elite back in the City's glory days.

Today I turn 36, and I am writing this down on a markdown editor on my iPhone while lying on my side, bored and tethered to a hospital bed a few inches short for my height, where I've been stuck since yesterday after being diagnosed with dengue fever. I will probably post this late since…
hmmm, I'm toying with the idea of switching my blog back to #WordPress from #Jekyll, just for kicks. #learningneverends
Looking forward to not being too busy after June 30.
Never compromise, always strive for perfection, but never let it get in the way of accomplishing your tasks. One must learn to strike a balance between the two.

This is Rubik, our new furry bundle of fleas and joy. He's so far doing okay, loves to snuggle up to whoever is sleeping and is somewhat more clingy than our previous cat. Our first cat, Peabo died last August which broke the kids' hearts and so I just had to get a new one.…

We drafted the framework for an Open Government Licensing Policy into our draft EO on the National Government Digital Service (Committee) back in the previous administration. Too bad it never got signed. But here is the jist of what an Open License is all about and why it is important. https://blog.okfn.org/2017/06/08/the-state-of-open-licensing-in-2017/
So, it's 2018 now. It's February and this is the first time I'm posting in months. I've neglected this blog for quite some time and this space doesn't deserve to be neglected as such.

Almost 2019

"Got a lot on my mind/plate", seemed to me as the usual excuse I give myself on why I just don't go ahead and start writing again on this platform. Too much noise, too many distractions, real-life, actual work, etc... and the list goes on and on. These things I keep using as excuses to…

Happy Easter.

‪It takes an awful lot of courage and faith to be able to say “Happy Easter, He has risen” in such trying times as this.‬ ‪Be thankful for your faith. Trust me, that void when one is without it can be taxing.‬

Open up my head and let me out... argh! I can't seem to shake this DMB tune off my head. I went silent from April of 2020 up to now. With the exception of a few posts on my IG and personal socmed accounts, I pretty much erased my presence digitally. At some point I…

Getting back into it

Sometime between December of 2021 and January of 2022 or roughly two years since the pandemic hit, I found myself outside shooting on the streets again. The pandemic changed so much of my routine and by this time I have eased into our new lifestyle. It was also how I got reacquainted with my neighborhood,…

I miss you, Baguio

I keep trying to find a way to go back and be near you. This love-hate thing we have going has me longing for your cool breeze, your laid back vibe that makes lazy afternoons strolling up and down Session Road good exercise, and to the everyday Baguio things such as having fried rice with…
