Do you do Facebook?

John Galt — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 12:50:35 +0000

No. I do not. I have a Friendster account which i rarely visit so i don’t find it necessary to have Facebook. Besides, i heard that Facebook is primarily a hit in the US and i don’t have people to do Facebook with in the US (i have families in Europe and Canada) so its [...]

A roadtrip to Pampanga

John Galt — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 16:43:49 +0000

A few weeks ago, Jun and I decided to join our friend, Ate Sally and her family in a short visit to their Pampanga home. Jun and i just wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and the Pampanga Roadtrip became the perfect avenue for us to satisfy that wanting. [...]

Poetry: Fallen Battles

John Galt — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 16:03:06 +0000

Cautiously, I picked up the cullets of your heart and did my best to stick them together. I had cut my skin from this endeavor but felt no pain, for the pain is too dismissible to be considered; for it is only you that matters – only your face and the beauty of your smile as you stood there looking at me from a distance – almost [...]

Three of the hottest guys in Bench Blackout

John Galt — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 14:14:11 +0000

It was definitely a fuming Blackout night filled with hordes of screaming and salivating fans from all kinds of sexes and all walks of life as “actors turned models and models turned actors” walk the ramp in Araneta Coliseum wearing only their undies (well, most of them at least).

I Recommend: The Love of Siam

John Galt — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 16:51:15 +0000

It is always a pleasant feeling whenever i find a great and meaningful movie. But sometimes, the opposite happens: this great and meaningful movie finds you, speaks to you; and you are taken aback, overwhelmed, affected, changed. I did not plan to watch the Thai film The Love of Siam. I thought it was just another [...]

Chronicles of our Ilocos Norte Visit

John Galt — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:57:17 +0000

One of the best, i mean THE best places to visit in the Philippines is Ilocos Norte. The place is filled with visual poetry and history. And we were so blessed to have been invited by my mom and my dad to experience it with them. My Dad Steen has a rest house in Pasuquin, just a few minutes from Laoag and that's where we stayed for the two short days of our stay (our work schedule was really, really tight at that time but because of our desire to see Ilocos, we made a great and worthwhile effort to slip it in our schedule).

I and Jun left for Ilocos Norte at around 9pm via the Florida Bus Lines (they're the pink and periwinkle buses) and arrived at around 6:30am the following morning. So thats roughly 9 hours of travel.

Night-out at the Phi Bar in Metrowalk

John Galt — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 12:08:32 +0000

Last Saturday night, I and Jun together with some of our friends went back to Metrowalk's Phi Bar to have a quickie night-out and to see Tribe of Levi perform (they're a good R&B Band and i heard they have an album coming out soon). ... But we were a bit disappointed that two of the original band members (the ones we watched the first time we were there), the best looking guys of the band i must say, were absent (just absent?

A Hot RedBox Tuesday Night at TriNoma

John Galt — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 06:11:31 +0000

It was supposed to be just another boooorrring Tuesday (15 July 2008) night for me until i remembered that we (I and Jun) had a scheduled RedBox night-out with our friends at the newly opened TriNoma Mall in Quezon City (near SM West). Yes, it was a Tuesday night and not one of us became [...]
