On handwriting.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit na bawat tao ay iba't iba ang handwriting.I remember that when I was a 1st year high school student, I had a male classmate has a good penmanship.

In my case, it depends on the ballpen/ball-point pen I use.

Regarding about the video and photo with Syrian child.

I don’t know if you, my visitors, already know this.

I’d seen a video on my Facebook feed about a Syrian boy is brought from a house to a nearby ambulance.

I think, based on his facial expression, he was shocked on what happened.

I may have no knowledge on how the war started, but I can’t help but think on how the war on the countries affected going to end, despite the number of refugees,, casualties, damages, etc.

I think the boy is traumatized.

Ang kawawa ay ang mga defenseless, powerless. Ang mass kawawa dito ay yung mgabatang walang kalaban-laban.

Gustong makatulong, but I don’t know how.

Here are some articles on the child.

On learning foreign languages.

Isa sa mga foreign languages na gusto kong matuto aside from the English language, ay ang French language. Hindi ko alam kung bakit gusto kong pag-aralan ang French language.

Bukod sa French language, gusto ko ding pag-aralan ang German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Korean, at Japanese.

On being overweight person.

Oo, inaamin ko. I'm an overweight person. Tapos, Pagtatawanan ako, aasarin ako, etc.

Around 2014 or 2015, I was told to go to a branch of one of the banks near to the office kung saan ako may trabaho. Tumawag ako sa office kung sino ulit yung hahanapin ko. Kinausap ko yung female colleague ko na nag-utos sa akin.

Yung female colleague na yun sa akin: "Kasing taba mo siya, Anthony."*

Yung taong hinanap sa bangkong yun, ay pluz-size woman. Loob-loob ko lang, akala mo itong Rose** na ito, akala mo kung sinong sexy.

Tapos, hindi ko maalala, pero tanda ko na Sabado ito nangyari. Si Miss Name, na mood na asarain, tapos, sinasabi na somewhat na kamukha ko daw yung hitsura nung isang lalaking empleyado bago siya pumasok sa office na pinapasukan ko. Tapos, tumingin siya akin. Hindi siya tiningan.

Tapos, yung isang pinsan ko. Nagbigay sa akin ng isang shower gel as Christmas gift. Nagbigay din siya ng pabango as Christmas gift before.

* Not my real name.
** Not her real name.

Kayong mga nang-a-asar, nang-a-away, etc. sa akin na overweight person. Akala nyo kung sino kayo.

Kapag ako pumayat, who u kayo sa akin.

BPI's My ePrepaid MasterCard, Google Play Store, and Pokémon GO.

Paper books and ebooks.

Some of us prefer physical books. While others prefer the paper/physical books.

Here are some of my thoughts.

On ebooks:

Pros:
1) If you have iPhone, iPod touch, and/or iPad, I suggest iBooks. If you have any Android device I suggest Aldiko.
2) You can store as many as you like.
3) You can use features of the ebook reader you currently using.
4) And other pros.

Cons:
1) You going to charge the ebook reader, when it has low battery. You going to charge the iOS or Android device you currently using, if you read an ebook your aforementioned device.
2) You cannot ask the author to sign in to your ebook.
3) If you upload the ebook in your house (or any where), you may not able to see other people's faces on the ebooks and paper/physical books being sold on the same day.
4) And other cons.

On having physical books:

Pros:
1) You can/may sell/gibe the book to someone else.
2) The signed paper/physical book/s can be consider as a collector's edition.
3) The books can be given to other people and unfortunate people.
4) And other pros.

Cons:

1) The pages will turn to yellowish.
2) Prone to being got wet.
3) And other cons.

Pokémon GO

Hindi ko expected na kahapon yung release dito sa Asia ng Pokémon GO. Hindi ako nagpahalata na "annoying co-worker" about the release ng Pokémon GO.

I download the aforementioned game in the office using my data connection. I played the game for the first time, (right) after I ate my dinner.

Charmander is the forst Pokémon I have.

In sickness and in health.

The title of this blog post is not about the line in a church wedding. But I'm referring to being sick. With colds and with cough.

I got sick the day after when my family & I went to Tagaytay.

The first 3 days I have colds. Today, the colds I have is almost gone, at the same time, I have a cough. I'd been drinking hot tea with calamansi (or kalamansi, and also known as Philippine lime).

Common color of calamansi is the green one.

I rather have fever than cough and colds.

Aozora Japanese Cafe + Bistro

What I like about Aozora is I like their Japanese-inspired bulalo, Aozora Ramen. Masarap siya. And of course, it is not complete without tempura in Japanese restaurants.

My older brother and my sister-in-law ordered Japanese omelette. Similar to the photo below. Credits to Recipes Hubs

The ambience is Japanese inspired. Two of the female emloyees are wearing kimono. And also the restaurant aired the Japanese version of "Let It Go".

The Green Olive Café

The Green Olive Café offer all-day breakfast pasta; sandwiches; sidings; hot & cold drinks; local and imported beers; and red & white wine.

The food I ordered is Waffles with Bacon and Eggs. It is consist of four sliced waffles, small pieces of bacon and one piece of sunny-side up egg. It is more delicious when you put syrup and butter in the waffle. I haven't tried this on pancakes.

The taste of the three is like most waffles, bacon, and fried eggs.

The coffee I ordered, Café Au Lait, is coffee hot milk. I just forgot to ask what kind of milk they used.

The cafe also has couches/chairs and tables wherein diners can eat outside. They have also a second floor for functions, etc.

The ambience is okay. They also sell products that are ready to eat.

There are also toys that can be played by customers.
