I Miss Alcohol... Markers, That Is!

(I do not own the video)

I miss this. Old school but still cool.

(This guy isn’t really a famous expert – he just happens to have the skill and the social media channels).

I was never able to master the use of alcohol-based markers in college; they’re very expensive! I nevertheless loved utilizing the few that I had for shades & shadows, to give depth to rather 2-dimensional elevations and plans. Zig Kurecolor was the best brand then. Or is it still? Some of my classmates doodled with so much ease. Graphics proficiency truly is a talent! I enjoy just watching the transition progress. So mesmerizing. From a blank piece of paper to a “playful” representation of something built / to-be-built. This kind of illustrating works especially for initial talks with a client. Some designers sketch ideas instantaneously right in front of the client.

I gave up trying to be a full-fledged architect more than a decade ago, after I failed the licensure examinations for the third time in a span of four years. It finally sunk in… it wasn’t meant to be. *sigh* L


“If you give up on it, maybe you don’t really want it enough!”OR Maybe the effects of some of the things we want in life aren’t really good for us. NEED is different from WANT, after all…

Skid Row - I Remember You (Official Music Video)

Cheesy glam metal love song. The treble is very sharp to the ears. My childhood friends and I always laughed at how Sebastian Bach looked like a “beautiful” man. HAHAHAHA!!!!

(I DO NOT OWN THE VIDEO)

“I REMEMBER YOU” by Skid Row

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain,
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you.
And all the tears you cried that called my name.
And when you needed me, I came through…

I paint a picture of the days gone by,
When love went blind and you would make me see.
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes,
So that I knew that you were there for me.
Time after time, you were there for me.

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand.
Love letters in the sand… I remember you.
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day,
I'd wanna hear you say, “I remember you”, Ooooohhhh…

We spent the summer with the top rolled down,
Wished ever after would be like this.
You said "I love you, babe" without a sound.
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss.
I'd live for your smile, and die for your kiss.

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand.
Love letters in the sand… I remember you.
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day.
I'd wanna hear you say, ”I remember you”, ooohhh....

We've had our share of hard times,
But that's the price we paid.
And through it all, we kept the promise that we made.

I swear you'll never be lonely.


Oooohhhh….
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain,
Washed away a dream of you.
But nothing else could ever take you away.
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true,
Oh my darling, I love you!

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand.
Love letters in the sand… I remember you.
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day.
I'd wanna hear you say, “I remember you”.

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand.
Love letters in the sand… I remember you.
Throughout the sleepless nights, through every endless day.
I'd wanna hear you say, “I remember, I remember you”
Oooohhhh uuuuhhhh…. yeah! Wooooaaahhh, yeah…

CELINE PIALAGO

I love strong women in public service and strong women in general; or at least the strength they project – like that prestigious (former) Congresswoman/Mayor from General Santos, that bright Department of Transportation spokesperson who returned to being a TV news anchor, that Miss Earth PH 2015 candidate/police officer who became one of President Duterte’s bodyguards. And now, Pircelyn Burce Pialago: another stunning Miss Earth PH candidate (2014) from Dalaguete, Cebu. She was first known for a “passed away” wrong-choice-of-words interview, but she’s now known as the tough MMDA spokeswoman.

I’m a realist. I will never fall for beauty queens in real life because they’re just way out of my league. No woman of that caliber will ever be attracted to me. HAHAHA!!!

I dreamt of her. She’s sooo pretty!!! Hihihi… <3

We weren’t “promoters” of road obstructions or anything like that; but for some reason, she was “harassing” my family. She absolutely despised me… but she was still very poised and gorgeous while doing it. HAHAHA!!!

Although I’m not really a fan of her voice (sorry Ms. Beautiful!), I’m a fan of her charm.


Why do women I admire (in the real world and in dreamland) dislike me? Am I really THAT awful and disgusting?! L
