back to basics

it's been quite sometime since i performed musically. now, it's haunting me. i was a music student in the early part of this decade and now i'm one of the few who just want to live life to the fullest. it was a roller coaster ride from where it started and believe me it's one heck of a ride. the years are sinking in my thoughts as i wander in this uncertain route called life. but it's all worth it.


getting dizzy now.


i was talking to a bunch of new found friends discussing life while fixing the 93 corolla that we're fixing. (yup! i wreck one - but that's a whole different story.) we all got a few things in common - cars, music and living life. my only difference is that im older than them - way lot older. the good thing is i never felt it. it's not that big of'a deal. i don't even notice it when im with friends. (yes, they're around twenty's.) i feel the same inspite of everything. but all of it rushed down last night, filling my head with still photographs of everything that happened through the years. it felt like i left myself 10 years ago and now it's catching up.

it's all good! i don't have any regrets and i feel fantastic.

think and grow rich

i'm reading the electronic facsimile edition of the book "think and grow rich" by napoleon hill, published by the ralston society in 1938, distributed by opportunityinformer.com . i was blown away when i started reading and thinking why have i not read it before? i still cant tell much about it but i'm sure that this can be a great help in times like, now. with the recession and pandemics, something should inspire people. not only to keep the faith but to uplift our soul to get thru the times. the book is just timeless. since 1938, it's been teaching how to be successful in life. hopefully, this will help you too. open this link to new page to download.

categorize: save money

want a reason to save? when i buy, i categorized my purchases as either: 1. necessary or 2. not necessary(others) easy as that. the tricky part is how to determine whether what i'm buying is necessary or not. it should be as simple as a yes or no question, but some factors complicate the decision making process. whatever those factors are it all boils down to whether it is needed or not. let's use phone as a sample. i would say i don't need a phone to live or i wont die(literally) if i don't have a phone. but if i have a kid and i want to keep track of him because i will die of worrying, then that's a need. now, think. what are the things that you can't live without? don't cheat. and, only by that you will be able to save.

a day in a life in makati - part 2

cont... after the early dinner we had in fridays, we ended up in the park near a church (imagine - a church near a mall...) i would say it's peaceful. it will take your mind out of the city life. a peice of nature, might i add. now before we headed home, the mall's extension - glorietta 5 got our attention. i remember the the old parking lot which was situated there. it is the best extension of the ayala mall i've seen yet. well, there's trinoma. but that's a different story.
