I’ve been looking forward to Kuroshitsuji’s second season and I’m hugely disappointed from what I’ve read. There will be a new master and butler, Alois Trancy and Claude Faustus. Although the new characters look promising, they still seem like poor copies of Ciel and Sebastian. Alois looks ok but he’s not as cute and angelic [...]
Alice in Underland sucks! The wonderland we’ve grown up with became Underland so it’s just justifiable that the highly anticipated Tim Burton – Walt Disney collaboration go under with it. I’ve waited for it since last year when I first saw the trailer, the fact that Johnny Depp (one of the few actors in my [...]
Ever wonder why clowns are suspense movies’ staple? Ever wonder why clowns have to laugh their supposed to be “happy but came out evil” laugh? Ever wonder why your two year old would never want to have a McDonald’s birthday party ever again? I wondered and guess what?! I think I have the answer:
I would [...]
I’ve been obsessed with pullips and taeyangs since the first time I saw them and the fact that they have Sebastian Michaelis of Kuroshitsuji in their collection I knew its just a matter of time before I finally succumb to buying one. I collect Mcfarlane dragons and transformers but there’s this little voice that is [...]
Its been awhile, I know but a lot of things have happened and I just don’t have the time to do a lot of stuff – one of which is blogging. I have a lot of unfinished business to take care of first before I get back on the bandwagon and it being the new [...]
We are finally back home, Reign had another go at the hospital for gastroenteritis and of course we had to stay for another 6 days. It was a scary, arduous and emotionally draining three weeks for us, not to mention the holes we now have in our pockets.
Anyway, surprises where waiting for us [...]
I have not done anything these past few weeks, my children were hospitalized last week because of dengue fever. Khleomi was treated for acute bronchitis a week before and just when she was about to finish up her treatment they were both admitted for dengue.
It was the worst week of our lives, the daily blood [...]
I’ve been watching and reading Naruto for the longest time and although I am a certified Naruto addict (our balcony design has the konoha sign on it… ) I am bound to find another anime that I would absolutely love and when I accidentally found Kuroshitsuji it was love at first sight.
It actually [...]
I’ve been out of it again for a week, had too much projects piling up but then again I enjoy the work. And the payout keeps me from looking for another job. I was offered a lot of jobs with salaries that I would jump at without a thought if I’m 4 years younger. But [...]
Today I turn 18 for the nth time. I don’t really know what I want, except of course for the universal birthday wish: “Good health and long life…” Hmm… I want a house, I want a car, I want a new pair of this, I want a new that, I want everything I’ve ever wanted! [...]
Typhoon Ondoy has left for greener pastures but the devastation he left was almost too much to bear. Iloilo was not as hard hit, we had no power and no internet connection but it was only for two days. I just got back my connection and scoured the web for news and what I saw [...]
Power and internet connection was down since yesterday. Typhoon Ondoy is raging and lashing over the whole archipelago with Luzon getting the brunt of it. And of course I am pissed off, with the amount of work that I need to finish up by Monday I could not just sit back, relax and wait the [...]
I know I am a fickle minded collector, I collect dragons and I love them but recently I’ve been quite obsessed with dolls. Not the barbie type that most girls grow up with, I don’t like them and have never expressed any type of attachment to them although my little girl loves them. In fact, [...]
Working at home as a home-based developer does have its merits: I can play with my kids any time I want to, I can wear anything, I can eat in front of my computer, I can have loud music blaring in the background, no travel expenses and I don’t have to be prim and proper [...]

This is a poem for a client that I have translated into Filipino, I was having a bit of fun with soundbooth and recorded the poem. It came out surreal… The original poem is called One Hundred Flowers by T. Namaya.
Isang daang bulaklak
Sana’y merong isang daang bulaklak
Ng kapayapaang namumulaklak sa hardin
Sana’y merong isang daang [...]
I’ve been collecting Mcfarlane dragons and have a very special place for them in my heart. I would never trade them for anything else. But lately, I’ve been mesmerized by Pullip and Taeyang dolls… They have faces to die for but the price would leave you lightheaded. The cheapest I saw online goes for $80 [...]
We went to SM City to watch Up in their new 3D Cinema. The kiddies were really excited and could not wait to get their 3D glasses and watch the movie. The movie is so-so, not really as well plotted as say shrek or monster incorporated but good enough for me and the kiddies. We [...]
When does it get too much to stomach? When does it get too overrated? How can people be so callous as to make an extravagance out of an already ostentatious event?
I once said that I would stop myself from talking about Philippine Politics or at least, what seems to be left of it, but the [...]
I just watched Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi), a Japanese anime film about a 10-year old girl named Chihiro who wandered into the world of spirits, monsters and gods and found the meaning of love, friendship and sacrifice. Chihiro’s name was changed to Sen by the evil sorceress Yubaba so that she could [...]
In case you haven’t noticed, BeThumbed is sporting a new look. I might or might not keep the theme depending on the status of the new theme I am working on right now. But as of the moment, I just want to have a bit more color in my life. I’m feeling a bit melancholic [...]
Yesterday, I screwed up big time and I even wrote about it in a brand new wordpress install. I was ready to start anew, to leave everything behind but something inside me just wouldn’t give up. So I tried to check the damaged database file I have downloaded and after hours of extensive research I [...]
Yesterday, August 1, 2009, one person that I looked up to went home to Heaven. She is not a relative, I don’t know her personally but her’s was a face I saw on tv when I was barely able to decide for myself. Her’s was a face I could recognize anywhere even at the tender [...]
I was trying to find a video of a sun conure to see how it really looks like all grown up. We saw baby sun conures in a pet shop yesterday and they are absolutely adorable, the price is not though… It’s Php 9,000 a piece. Quite pricey for a bird, I’ll stick with my [...]
Working as a home-based freelancer takes a lot of toll, especially on your back. Sitting in front of a computer screen for over 10 hours a day, 7 days a week does not help at all. So, a good chair is definitely a must, if there’s anything else you have to invest on, other than [...]
For those who don’t already know I am a big anime freak, as of the moment I am addicted to Love Hina, Fairy Tail and of course, Naruto.
I grew up with Dragon Ball Z, Zenki, Samurai X, Fushigi Yuugi, Hana Yori Dango, Ghost Fighter, Flame of Recca, Inuyasha and more.
I know I’m already 26, married [...]
Yesterday, I got a surprise when my college friends whom I wasn’t able to see for the longest time went to fetch me for a night out. We went to Spa Riviera for a much needed spa treatment, I have actually been meaning to do this for the longest time as well but just don’t [...]
I was browsing around when I saw this youtube video and somehow felt a great affinity to these people. I once dreamed of changing the world, of being recognized… but I never did fit the bill, I was too eccentric, and don’t seem to understand the word “NO”, I am a misfit and I might [...]
A few weeks ago, I got a package from the mail. Well, I was actually expecting it since I bought it from a seller at Etsy.com but the shipping was a bit longer than I expected. But it was worth the wait, you see I am a lip balm addict, I always carry one (or [...]
