I jumped off the ground in my room earlier when I discovered a centipede briskly crossing the floor. Hey I can take beetles, slugs, roaches, and spiders in my room (provided they are willing subjects for photography), but damn, a centipede is too much. I saw it trying to climb into my cabinet so I sprayed it on the head with an insecticide at point blank. It made kisay-kisay for a few minutes and promptly disappeared underneath my cabinet, where I presume it died (I hope). I then went a bit berzerk ...

After rewatching "Waterloo" for the gazillionth time early evening, then talking to my GF on the phone at around midnight. I was still wide awake 2 hours later, playing Rome: Total War. So what kept me up?

I arrived really early (that new Cebu Ferries ship is really fast--not sure if it's really new or perhaps the engine was refurbished, but boy was it fast), and was still able to get to my boarding house, freshen up, and get to work like any other day.
