Back in May, 2007, we shaved Kenny for the first time to spare him from the unbearable heat that strikes Taiwan every Summer. It's a razor-near-skin buzz, taking away all of his fluffy white fur, and reducing his size from size 0 to size -2. Click here to refresh memory.Some think that the cut looks absolutely ridiculous. If Kenny could appreciate beauty, he would be so ashamed of himself that he

i finished reading 2 books that were started a couple months back. those books, tho interesting, carried covers that appear to be a sick joke poorly played on myself, by me. the book titles were: 1) He's just not that into you and 2) Then we came to the end.wtf... how appropriate, the timing.the 2nd book is actually a fiction about corporate story, but i chuckle sarcastically at the unintentional

I'm stronger than I thought.After receiving 2 (almost consecutive) slaps on my face, it's quite astonishing that I'm still standing. Wobbly maybe, but moving along. Despite the nausea and sickening numbness in my head, I have to give more credit to my own courage.My brain hasn't been able to stop thinking, reasoning, pondering these "happenings" over and over. As much as I tried to appease my

Today, during my personal shavasana between yoga classes (AKA. nap) from enjoying the sound of raindrops splashing against the windows, I felt a bright light tilt, thinking that it was the yoga instructor turning on the lights. A few seconds later, a blasting crisp thunder broke the sky (setting off several car alarms), and I thought: THUNDERSTORM!Kick ass~~!!!That bright lightning and thunder

Alicante is a small beautiful town next to the Mediterranean coast, but because of it's cold weather at this moment, there's not much to do at the beach. Spaniards, like the rest of the Europeans that I've met, are very friendly, there's warm greeting everywhere you

Of course, apart from having all the fun, I on the other hand, had other ‘serious duty’ that I needed to accomplish. They included several orders from different people: 1) takuwans, or Japanese cured radish, and furikake, not any furikake, but those 100 yen ones ONLY

Everyone else had visited it but me, so it was about time I decide to visit some good old friends.

Especially when it comes to dealing with the "unexpected" people and events that one may encounter. Honestly, what's fun and good about Panama? I have no freaking idea. How so? Because we were all stuck with the expo for our entire stay.

Free food, music, entertainment, games, the only time in the year given the permission to possibly mock the boss in public for all sh*t that you had to go throughout the year, and the highlight of the event—the gifts and prizes.
