Recomms!
Yet another self-indulgent entry! When I know for a fact that the few readers that I have have better things to do than read comic books and arrange action figures in their eskaparates! Either way I am taking this opportunity… Read More ›

Independence Day at walang pasok. Pwede naman akong umuwi ng probinsya, pero kako, mahal ang pamasahe, kaya nanatili na lamang ako sa aking kwarto para gumawa ng kung anu-ano. Isa pa, dahil Independence Day, more excuse para mag bloggeth ulit… Read More ›
Exposed
For once I told myself, “I will not make rounds on this patient today”. It just felt so… liberating (arte). Besides, I thought, the patient is in the able hands of Helliza. A few days ago I frantically called up… Read More ›
Oh, Matter-Eater Lad
We hate going to malls on a Sunday, so imagine the aggravation of going to, of all the bleeping malls, SM Megamall. Everyone was in megamall, but it was the nearest place where we could dine after… going to church…. Read More ›
2004
At sino ang mga pagala-gala sa ospital kundi… mga bagong interns! Mga bagong hellows! Mga bagong pasyente! Nagtataka kami nung una noong mga huling araw ng Abril dahil may mga naglalakad-lakad na grupo na wari tumitingin tingin sa paligid habang… Read More ›
Dazzled
Back in our community rotation during internship Len-Len and I were marooned to a far away barangay in Batangas. Community rotation was fun because I was able to catch up in my comic book readings while Len-Len and I were… Read More ›
Koopa Paratroopas
We don’t usually do this as cancer hellows, but this morning all four of us attended the Thursday audit. The audit is a weekly conference where first year residents present one of their mortalities, and receive comments and questions and… Read More ›
Slinking Further
Being that we were in a state of absolute morbidhood Smoketh and I discussed what we would do upon my death. We can’t be totally blamed for going one step further down the nega road, in the past three months… Read More ›
Fun Fun Fun Now
If there is one moral lesson we are learning in our present state as hellows in cancerhood it’s that we should have fun fun fun NOW because tomorrow we might wake up, take our daily baths, and in the process… Read More ›
Bottom Licker
Many years ago when we were very young my father promised us he would take us to the Magnolia Ice Cream House two towns away. We’ve looked forward to this event for weeks on end, imagining those tall ice cream… Read More ›
To The Tune Of X
While drinking coffee and laughing over something with Carines, UHBJAW, and the rest of the hellows UHBJAW noticed something kadiri I was doing and admonished me on the spot. “Nagkakapa ka na naman ng kulani mo sa leeg! Huling huli!”… Read More ›
Nega Eight-Month Reportage
On the status of DC comics, that is. We are 8 issues in since the relaunch, and it is with much conviction that I declare that the September reboot is a total failure. It feels great that I was right… Read More ›
In A Fluox
The annoying thing about sadness is it seems easy to fix–it’s like it’s just in your head so you can probably do things to resolve it–but it’s recurrent. Like cancer. In fact if I hear one more thing about cancer… Read More ›

And to my delight I’ve just discovered that this is my 400th post in This Could Be A Job For Mulder and Scully, ever since I’ve moved from–ahahahaha, Friendster–at the recommendation of Walking on Water! 400 bleeping blog entries, who… Read More ›
HELLE!
In my few months of unwanted hiatus I’ve rummaged through my closet and other nooks and crannies in my room and discovered more–MORE!–trash that if allowed would take over the entire room in a few more years. I have been… Read More ›
A Call To Single Women
With tears streaming down my face (OA!) I’ve put up some of my beloved action figures for sale in an action figure message boards. If these plastic toys would ever have the opportunity to save me and be actually useful… Read More ›
Crank
Minsan iniisip ko na sana ay pwede rin akong magka-regla. Ito ang sinabi ko kay Amoketh isang araw habang kumakain kami ng sushi sa ambulance parking lot. Sa mga nakalipas na araw kasi ay napapansin kong masyado akong cranky. Kaunting… Read More ›
Thymes and The Lochia
Met Thymes and Lochia for dinner in kantunan last night. Eat-outs with these people are few and far between so we had to catch-up with all the stories really fast and put up three threads of conversation at the same… Read More ›
One Day At A Time
Attended this morning the baptism of Papa Ruter’s super cute daughter in Fernbrook Alabang. Ruter is one of my residency batchmates, and you might remember him from my post where he ripped off his shirt in our sweltering callroom, lifted… Read More ›
