I am Moving....

I am moving and posting newer, but still crappy stuff at The Pencil Pushing Area for now and for all those still interested do check it out. There's not much posted, not yet, its a start. Something new to tinker with. I was always interested in using wordpress to power my blog and finally I get to do it there. So thanks for all the fish and see you there. :)

For archival and sentimental purposes I am not going to delete this blog, its better that way I think.

Sadly...

Sadly...I have been neglecting this blog for quite some time now and it doesn't mean that I have nothing to post also. It has been a year since I kept this blog and much have I learned about blogging. In fact, I've been active mostly now on my work-in-progress art journal The Pencil Pushing Area which I feel more inclined to update because as of the moment I'm into my drawing itch again and it has been almost like 10 years since I was crazy about drawing/sketching comic book characters and the like and I'm riding on to it for now. As far as I can assess, I'm not really good at posting interesting topics and as much as I wanted to say what's on my mind (and I've got a lot of interesting things running round me head) I just can't organize and put them thoughts on digital paper and make this blog more interesting with interesting post. But all in all, I am not closing this blog, mind you. More of a sabbatical and maybe, just maybe I'd find the spark or spank that I need to get these gears going. So, that's it people, if anyone's interested still, look for me on the left hand sidebar and have a click at it. Maybe I updated some things elsewhere...I'll be back!

Random Thoughts-Scene 1

Imagine yourself sitting comfortably somewhere private, remote and nature laden like an oceanic view. The soft glare of the early morning sun warming your skin and the gently, intoxicating sea breeze sweeping all around you like an after thought. Now you are staring into the vastness of the ocean and instantly feel minute and insignificant to the world around you and the feeling of discordance and meaningless comes to mind as you keep on staring. Amidst all this you come to a glaring conclusion that no matter how insignificant you may be, you are in awe of the life and the world around you and no matter what the cost you must have the will to carry on and see what the future holds for you when you snap back into civilization. Remember that you are far away from the bustling city life. The urban jungle is but a memory now. You are almost in trance, save that you still feel the comfort of you sitting somewhere remote and alone with some drink in hand, preferrably a can of ice cold beer. Then reality kicks in... Imagine an ugly boot forever stomping on your head on the pavement of the future.

The Anime in me

I've recently got the anime fever again much to my dismay. I've admired them since I was hooked with the Voltes 5 mania in the 80's when me and the other snot driven neighbor kids would watch the episodes on RPN9 on a lazy afternoon (?!) and sing to our hearts amusement on cue to the japanese theme song to god knows what they really meant. Since then I was hooked on anime and cartoons in general and geez I'm in my early 30's now and still watch them with gusto. From Hayao Miyazaki's master works to the anime series that come and go as the years went by like dragon ball, samurai x, ghost in a shell, gundam wing and recently naruto and bleach. I'm currently finishing off the Gundam X series (6 more episodes to go, wahooo) and I really like it so far. I'm eagerly awaiting on Gundam Seed Destiny which I both have on DVD. Makes me wanna start again on having them Gunpla's (Gundam Modeling Kit)----geeky me!, I used to have one and tried constructing the kit, it was a gundam gp03 1/144 model if i recall correctly. I gave it to friend after I was finish constructing it. Anyways, anime fever is up and fueling the child within me.

I'm back...I think!?

I'm back. Its been awhile since I've updated this blog. I'm now part of the got hitched crowd and it has been 9 days since. Everything was 50% according to plan thanx to our  dumb coordinator who acted like he knew what he's doing, fooled us.geez. Well, of all the wedding stories and advices I've heard from recently, it all went out as expected and terrible in some way or form. But atleast its finally over and done with. The important thing is now I'm a married dude and as everyone will soon expect me to be responsible and steer the course of my life and all that sh@#. Another chapter closes and another is starting to get written and all that crap. hehehe. Part of me not updating this blog was because of this and when I got back last Tuesday I was dead tired and spaced out (!?) and work was waiting for me like a bad MF. Now I'm just taking a cruise ride at the back seat and looking at my, or shall I say both of our future outside the dashboard of a dark and fast world, kinda like looking at gotham city by gaslight...updates will be posted soon, no pics yet...nuff said...     

Attacked by the Dreaded Bugs

Im really pissed off this past week because of one recurring house problem: BUG INFESTATION!!!. 

I really thought we already rid of ourselves of these pest months before. Kissing Bugs or Assassin Bugs are a pain in the butt or pain in any part of the body for that matter. I don't know where they come from, they just attacked my sister's bedroom. She got an allergic reaction to its bite like swelling on the affected part to a point that she can't even move her arm. At first we thought it was just cockroach bites but we found this weird looking creature under her bed which I whacked with my slippers on instinct and then came splat!! Blood and guts of the thing spread out on the floor and I realized that it wasn't its blood but blood meal. F@#$ gross. I googled any info I could get about these critters and found out that they were the one's responsible for my sisters' agony and we immediately made sure to track and kill every last one we could find by insecticide and death by slipper whack. That was before and now they've comeback somehow and from who knows what origin and the funny thing is that my sister is long gone to some foreign land and her bedroom is empty and you know what, the f@#$ decided to infest my measly bedroom now. The moment I began to have welts and bite marks, dread finally caught up with me and only one critter responsible came up to my mind, the freaking Assassin Bugs are back with a vengeance. Paranoid that I was, I immediately checked under my bed and what do you know, the f@##s were there hiding, bloated and hiding for crying out loud! Caught and killed seven! geeez, seven of them in less than a damn week. Everytime I sleep I get paranoid that somehow I know that they are waiting patiently in cracks and crevices awaiting my deep slumber for them to attack and suck the life outta me! From what I have googled, they are a deadly pest to some parts of the Americas and carry deadly diseases. So far, nothing came up on articles about them in the Philippines though. Maybe one of you has a damn solution about this and help me get rid of them shits altogether. I periodically check under the bed now and shit.
