Escaping my comfort zone
We moved to San Jose Village 3, Brgy. Malamig, Biñan, Laguna back in September 1997. For 15 years, I never left our place. Not even for college or work.
So now, I’ve been bringing up my confidence and will to move out of this place. I think it’s time. I’m in a really good track in my career. I’m emotionally and financially stable. I’m ready.But some of my friends say that dude, a lot of other people would love to be in your position. I’ve been living with my family, with minimal expenses, and secure finances. Going out and living alone in an apartment would be very impractical.
Well, that’s the problem for me.
For years I’ve been too comfortable with my lifestyle. I’ve been too comfortable for 15 years.
For a difference, I want to worry. Worry about a lot of things like my own food expenses, groceries, rent, and bills. I want to feel more grown-up. I’ve just turned 23 last March and I feel like a bum when I go home at 4pm (yes, lucky shift) even though I contribute to the household. So there, that’s the reason why I want to move.
But doing so I have to give up a lot:
- Spontaneous weekday evenings with friends
- going to Nuvali/Paseo whenever the hell I want to
- Watching Adventure Time with Franco
- yeah, cable TV
- afternoon jogs around our quiet village
- the beautiful sunrise which shines on our breakfast table in the morning before I go to work
- Acoustic/heavy metal jamming by myself in our garage in the evening
Well, I think it’s okay. I really need a breakthrough for my lifestyle.
I have to do this.

Real-life Grave of the Fireflies: (Photo) Stoic Japanese orphan, standing at attention having brought his dead younger brother to a cremation pyre, Nagasaki, by Joe O’Donnell 1945
This photograph was taken by an American photojournalist, Joe O’Donnell, in Nagasaki in 1945.
He recently spoke to a Japanese interviewer about this picture:
“I saw a boy about ten years old walking by. He was carrying a baby on his back. In those days in Japan, we often saw children playing with their little brothers or sisters on their backs, but this boy was clearly different. I could see that he had come to this place for a serious reason. He was wearing no shoes. His face was hard. The little head was tipped back as if the baby were fast asleep.
“The boy stood there for five or ten minutes. The men in white masks walked over to him and quietly began to take off the rope that was holding the baby. That is when I saw that the baby was already dead. The men held the body by the hands and feet and placed it on the fire.
“The boy stood there straight without moving, watching the flames. He was biting his lower lip so hard that it shone with blood. The flame burned low like the sun going down. The boy turned around and walked silently away.”
Grave of Fireflies, that film is so sad.

Took me around 80+ shots, manage to produce only one decent shot.
Challenges of this shoot:
- The moon was rising quickly, I had to adjust my aperture, shutter speed and tripod height to adapt into the changing lighting condition and the moving subject.
- Exposure times of trials varied from 15s to 25s, too long it would produce unwanted moon trails and noise, too short and it might underexpose the clouds
- I had to pray for lightning during exposure time, which occurred maybe once every 3 minutes.
- There were a lot of mosquitoes
Location: Barotac Viejo, Iloilo

Depression
I’m in the brink of depression. I just can’t handle this loss I have sustained.
My favorite Penshoppe black hoodie, is nowhere to be found.
I love that hoodie. Bought it for a good price of 900 pesos. When I first saw it at the Penshoppe store at Festival Mall, I almost didn’t hesitate to buy it.
It’s the most comfy hoodie I ever had. And I love its style, it just matches my casual style (semi-fitted collared shirt, dark jeans, sneakers).
It offers great protection from the freezing cold of the office air conditioning.
I’m going to buy the same hoodie this week.

March 16th, 2012 - The day has finally come
the day has finally come. The long wait is finally over.
Today, my habit of collecting extra Mcdonald’s ketchup sachets has finally paid off.
In front of me, is a glorious piece of fried chicken without gravy. I can’t imagine eating this glorious piece of fried chicken without any condiments.Good thing I have a good stock of unused Mcdonald’s ketchup sachets.
This day shall never be forgotten. This is the 2nd most important event of my life. The most important being my graduation day from college.
