A new Motto, in toto…

Dear Friends,

For your comments and perusal,

Henceforth, my motto would be:

No worries, no regrets, no boundaries

Once I find my old latin dictionary, I’ll translate it into Latin (duh) and have it tattooed on my left arm lest I forgot.

Don’t ask me why I am posting this, I haven’t gotten much sleep for over 24 hours now.



A Sobering Thought

I don’t think anyone in my immediate circle has realized it yet that I’ve drinking consistently with a few days of intervals for the past three years or so. I wouldn’t say that I’m an abject alcoholic but I knew something was wrong about a year ago when I was looking to buy something to quench my thirst at a local 7-11 store and I took at a couple of San Mig lights to get my fix (it was an afternoon).  Since then, I have been into lala limbo every other day or so. So this week, I had a resolve to stop drinking alcohol completely but not right after downing a medium-sized bottle of GSM Blue and evidently knocking myself out of my socks for the last time, ofcourse.

It might be a while before I taste you again my old friend *sob

So far it has been seven days and counting. Not that I’ll completely stop myself from drinking. But I guess, it would be wise (as advised by my liver), to reduce the frequency from a M-W-F scheme into a more manageable 2x a month ruckus.

I know for a fact that I have been drinking because I wanted to numb the pain that I have been feeling for the past few years or so (not related to a single event mind you) but I realized that somehow I have to put my foot down. I’m turning 29 this year, I don’t want to get into my 3rd decade of my life brain dead. Being autistic is bollocks enough.



Into the Wild

Just saw Into the Wild a few weeks ago, this was the story about the  ill-fated adventures of Chris McCandless. I didn’t like the guy’s belief system at all but I totally admire his philosophy. Travel the less road traveled and travel with the basics only. That’s how we should roll it.

As I’ve always told friends, I am a DIY tourist and I find my traveling experience more enriching and exciting by trying to get to point A to Point B with the cheapest and most efficient way possible.

So with this post, I am declaring my 2009 Into the Wild Travel Series open!

Top 3 Places to go to:

1. Caramoan Islands

2. Pararan Beach

3. Batanes Islands

Need to buy:

- A good camera (Canon Ixus series preferably)

- A lighter backpack (my mountaineering backpack is sturdy but too heavy)

I will go to these places this year, by hook or by crook (sorry for this cliche’)
