Went out last night and don’t recall just a whole lot but apparently I had a good time if this mornings hangover is any testament. It seems I got home before 11pm and bought three days worth of takeout from Big Mouth. I remember getting up early and drinking. At some point I was at [...]
Heres my new buddy at Cocolocos, a tiny gecko that comes out every now and then for a bite or a water drop.
The weather has been cool, dark, and windy which is just perfect for me! manila got stomped in the storm and everyone (including the President) keeps calling it a typhoon although it never once reached those wind speeds to rise from a tropical storm classification. But rain? Oh yea, it dumped the most ever recorded [...]
Tropical Storm Ketsana came ripping through here and dumped THE record for rainfall in Manila. Its the most on record, apparently but then again no-one bothered recording it until Americans came. On Boracay, it was a lot of crazy winds and rain bursts. There were groups all over station 3 from the cave to the station-house, [...]
Went diving yesterday after a few months off – and now, I hurt. Thankfully the water was nice and cool with overhead cloudiness. I really do know better, but of course failed to use sunblock. It was a double dive with Blue Mango’s new instructor, Tom (UK). He’s spent the last 8 months with the [...]
Yesterday was my first time eating crab and I definitely don’t like it. Apparently everyone else likes it for the same reason I don’t, that fatty tissue that makes up 90% of its meat. Don’t get me wrong, the cooks at Cocolocos are some of the best around so I have no doubt it was [...]
Which is 3 more than I normally eat in a 24hr period. Insomnia had me out early and down at Blue Mango for breakfast, 2 eggs however you want them, wheat bread toast, bacon (or ham slice), and mango jam & butter. Wow, breakfast…. me….who would have thought?! A few hours later I got the [...]
The night started simply enough being alone with myself, but ended with obscene quantities of tequila and tacos. I don’t have a single picture: which is probably for the best. No need for evidence. Was planing on doing some coding so I got some take-out from Cocolocos: sliced beef w/vegetables, sliced chicken in bamboo shoots, [...]
WTF! Seriously, wtf is going on with me getting a head-cold? At first I though it was a hang-over since I stayed up almost 24hr drinking myself stupid, but this fucking hurts. Neck, eyes, sinus, shoulder and head muscles, headache…. took a Sinutab and tried taking another one an hour later but my throat seems [...]
I started nicely enough, but somehow ended with 2 pointy spiked barbell piercings in my eyebrows and 10 mysterious Jammers tacos eaten. I was shooting billiards at CocoLocos with D. and eating calamaris. Good enough. Not really drinking much at this point, I think. Ended up with G. walking towards Charls Bar stopping a few [...]
I was sitting in Cocolocos yesterday evening (Boracay, not the resort island) and friend comes over telling how his illness cleared up and he could go diving again, unlike myself. Then he says that out near Virgin Drop, him and the shop manager/instructor of Blue Mango diveshop saw a dolphin just under 2 meters long [...]
It started simply enough at Cocolocos with Denis, then to Red Pirates where I saw Sally for the first time in months (still cool as hell and cute as it gets). Didn’t know it at the time but I stayed there until midnight before meeting up with Daniel and Remus at Juice Bar. 00:30 – [...]
There was this guy that left today….lets call him Lance…mostly because that’s his name. Well, this happinin’ cool cat spent a good amount of time here for his vacation and decided to throw a going-away party for himself after a month of dutiful service on the island. I found out the night before but everyone [...]
I have to ask this because I’ve not left the house much in a few days. A few hours at Cocoloco’s and at Red Pirates…some of which I remember, but other than that its been time spent in the aircon. Now it looks like the night will be wasted again trying to fix a cell [...]
I don’t really remember when I started but it was around 04:30 when I woke up and left for Isla Baila, which is still closed for construction, which is OK because I had a tab there. So heck, now I’m just gonna have to bar-hop my way down the beach to all those tiny hotel [...]
I should get paid for the amount of irresponsibility that exudes from my very essence. I was taking an easy day, so I thought. Nothing in the house that I cared to eat but I hadn’t been to the ATM in a while and 40 pesos wasn’t getting me anything near here. Buuuutttt, there is [...]
