I had to finish One Hundred Years of Solitude, and yes, I know I should have had written this post sooner, but with regard to the Anime Blog Awards it is still technically May 15th (CST is GMT - 13). Since this is the final post in my Lunar New Year series, I decided to […]

It is a cool day.
There is an abundance of rain; its syncopation on my roof is a thankful swan-song to the long days of heat and drought. With my cup of coffee and my two cheese sandwiches I stay by my computer and explore what happens to the real world within the comfort of […]

On a whim, I simply decided to make my own quote box in Paint. Yes, I know, it doesn’t look good. Anyway, the inspiration came from Shance. Thank you man.
I browse 4chan at times, and I never did know what the fuss was about a haggard-looking old man until I discovered the post by Iwanihana. […]

Some denizens of the #animeblogger channel were talking yesterday, and they seemed to be distraught with the lack of raws on WinNY and Share. I believe this was a repercussion from this incident, where the people instrumental in producing anime RAWs have been arrested by the police.

While some of us may be perverts, let me try (hopefully, in the next posts) to prove that we can also do a lot of things well in our lives.
I’m often glad whenever a novel or an anime series mentions the Philippines in either anime or literature (which are my favorite media). When the first […]

This is a light post.
Anyway, zaitcev linked to #animeblogger (and has posted about it) regarding the Google trends of searching for ‘anime, hentai.’ If you check it out, the people who top the list are …
You guessed it right, Filipinos.
I had a good laugh over it, really. Oh wow.

The lack of updates can be attributed to a very taxing (yet supererogatory) paper on Maxine Hong Kingston’s novel Tripmaster Monkey. I am grateful to all the people who have helped me. Special mention must be made regarding Daniel, who, despite with his exams of Shakespeare allotted some time to help me organize my paper; […]

I am an idiosyncratic guy (I believe everyone is, to some extent). Among the quirks that I have noticed in me, however, is the quirk of being a bibliophile bordering on obsession. Simply put, I have this itch to read, and I tell you, it has not been pretty most of the time. This comes […]
