WordCamp Asia 2025
—
Filed under EventsI have to preface this that I was lowkey forced to buy a ticket for WordCamp Asia during a WordPress Meetup in CDO (in a good way, hahaha). I booked an event ticket without even having a flight ready and whatnot. Yes. I am crazy. But WordCamp Asia was crazier. I arrived in Manila a…
Talfahrt: Tumbling down the first quarter of 2025
—
Filed under PersonalWe are nearing the end of March 2025. And since January 31, 2025, things have been going downhill for me. Literally. Figuratively – in almost all sense of imagination possible. I thought 2025 would be a redemption year for me, but it seems more like another filler episode in the grand scheme of things. But…
The Case of Having Too Little Time to Play (or playing the wrong thing)
—
Filed under paQs GamingEver since I wrote The Case of Having Too Many Things to Play, not much has changed, except perhaps the frustrating realization that I now have too little time to actually play. Worse, when I do have some semblance of free time, I’m stuck in the same gaming loop—F1, FIFA, and Mobile Legends. Games Added Let’s cut to the…
The Gadget Galore of the last 5 years and how I’ll go lean in 2025
—
I thought initially that in 2024, I would have my gadget spree spending in check. Contrary to what people close to me believe, it’s not the flying around that’s costing me much, but it’s the gadgets. In 2024 alone, the second half of it most particularly, I added a number of new devices. Not to…

A Huge Leap Forward, And A Few Steps Back
—
How things have unfolded since about a quarter back has been quite curious. I managed to sneak a decent position, along with it a decent pay at a company that I had hoped would do great things over the next couple of years (spoiler alert: it won’t). My trusted M1 Macbook Pro (yes, with Touch…
Three Cheers For Five Years. With a twist.
—
Filed under PersonalMany have doubted that the day would come. But the day is here and now. The day where I call quits on that fairytale I kept in my mind all this time, a narrative that has overstayed its welcome. I tried to find a way back in March, but it eventually came to its timely…
Going For 30 Plus 3
—
Filed under Personal[It’s merely hours before my birthday now. I can’t contain my boredness of welcoming my 33rd birthday.] And here I am, continuing the post well into July. The ways you feel at any given time is really just a matter of perspective. My initial intro for this post was anything but positive. I asked myself,…

This experience serves as a microcosm for broader discussions about development across the Philippines, a nation characterized by its diverse landscapes and cultures, yet united by similar…
Mistaken Identities: Who am I, and what do I want?
—
Filed under PersonalEver since my mother’s asking of me to return to Davao in September of this year… ever since I did as she asked and started working from the city of Davao for a while… Things have been quite shaky and unsatisfying for me. I am not sure anymore, what I want… or who I am…

It was an article leaning towards a more realistic approach, outlining things that would be fairly doable and attainable this year.

Beyond Resolutions: Concrete Actions

Filed under PersonalWe write the 2nd of January, 2024. I am within the confines of my new office based job in the form of being a German Speaking Staff for an Australian/German client via 611 Ma-a. No phones and nothing to do yet, I seek shelter in Google Keep to write these thoughts away. The spacebar is…
