IHMA Batch 2000 Reunion

St. Augustine and St. Ezekiel of Immaculate Heart of Mary Academy (Batch 2000) just celebrated their “first” get together after 10 years. It was made possible by our beloved sponsor Kristine Mae Basalo-Sato with Barny and Jade who organized the event. To everyone who were there, thank you very much! I hope the bond that we created as friends will still grow sturdier as time passes. Hope will have another reunion in the years to come.

R.I.P One Manga

A sad news for every manga lovers out there. One Manga an online manga reading site is removing their online manga especially those with licenses. The site is not going to be offline, instead the online reading functionality is disabled. Manga list and description will still be active.

One Manga was the site that introduced me to the world of manga and It was way back in my senior year in college.  I’ve been an avid visitor of the site for almost 3 years, reading and following my favorite manga (like One Piece, Bleach, Naruto and many more).  The news was quite a shock for me but I can slowly accept it because nothing lasts forever. Anyway there are a lot of alternatives to one manga nowadays so there is no problem migrating, guess I’ll have to update my bookmarks now.

To One Manga, thank you for the good times… you will be missed. T_T

My Wedding

A man’s happiest day is the day he settles down with the other half of his life. I am very thankful to God since he gave it to me on the 23rd of July. It was one of the happiest day in my life and everyone was there to share it with us. The wedding was held at Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Minglanilla and the reception followed at Villa Rammelyn Garden Resort.

I am thankful to all who attend that event, to our family, our friends and relatives who never ceases to support us. Thank you very much for your time in sharing this memorable event with us.

To my soon to be wife

Love itself is what’s left over when being “in-love” has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Today, I will share with you a story of how Love was left when being “in-love” faded. This story happened 10 years, 4 months and 8 days ago. It was way back in high school. I transferred from CIT to IHMA (Immaculate Heart of Mary Academy) to spend my last year in high school there. And because I was new to the school I don’t have a lot of friends. What I do, to pass the time is to sit in a corner during recess, together with my pen and notebook, I draw. I am the type to just keep silent, watch and observed people.

Baby and I

Baby and I

During the first week of class, I can’t help but notice this girl. She had a very beautiful hair and such clear hazel brown eyes. My first impression of her was that she was a snob or a “suplada”.  I assumed that she would only talk to persons that she likes or knew. I never had the guts to approach her and ask her name.

Family Night Out

It’s the month of June… both father’s day and my father’s birth month.  So I, my baby and my family went out to celebrate these events in advance. To my father, advance happy birthday and happy father’s day. Take care and more blessings to come in the future. Who am I kidding. I don’t know my father, I never loved my father and most of all… to hell I care about my father. We are celebrating because we are thankful that he left us, for we wouldn’t be here now if he was still around. He doesn’t get the respect that he deserves… to my father… Good Riddance
