  1. ISTORYA BLOG #129: How to Catch Cave Bats for Food the Primitive Way

    Featured in my Blogspot on October 1, 2011

    CAVE BATS ARE A close relative of fruit bats. While fruit bats grow in size, their cave-dwelling cousins are smaller compared to them. Despite its habitat, cave bats do eat fruits aside from small insects. In short, both species share the same diet.

    These bats are of such common sight and are numerous. This is not a threatened species though unlike those of fruit bats and you could hunt these provided that it is not for ...
  2. Write it Down

    (I may have written something like this before, in this blog, but I just want to express these thoughts once again)

    Before the year ends, I have a simple bit of advice to everyone who isn't doing it on a regular basis yet.

    Learn to write down your thoughts.

    You don't have to do this using the English language, you may write down your thoughts and observations in any language or dialect you are comfortable with, but do make sure you use proper punctuation ...

  3. But, Sa Gihapon.

    Gimingaw gihapon ko nimu and I am comfortably numb, numb'er by day. Bidding farewell to sobriety and pushing aside the sanity that onced thrived on that beloved; Us.

    But, I still miss you and I still cry; after a deep sleep earned through days of laboring, unsettlingly-go-lucky; sleep-deprived days.

    But, I still think about you and if you are happy with whomever and whatever and whenever you maybe. I really miss you.

    But, that was a goodbye I had to hold ...

    Featured in Blogspot on September 23, 2011

    IT WILL BE A SUPER hot day today. This is a Friday, April 9, 2011, the anniversary of the Fall of Bataan. I will not be commemorating our heroes today but I will facilitate a training program for a supercharged group of mountain climbers preparing for a Lenten climb to Mount Pulag in Benguet.

    The route will be one-half of the Freedom Trail, the full stretch of Kilat Trail, a part of Lensa Trail and the remaining arc of Bebut's ...
  5. ISTORYA BLOG #127: A High-Ground Trail

    Featured in Blogspot on September 6, 2011

    MY BUHISAN EXPLORATION is a work in progress. City people like me depended too much navigating by foot on rivers and dry ravines for want of more knowledge of its hidden trails among thick jungle. You must remember that Buhisan is a watershed area and a considerable part of Metro Cebu's drinking water supply is sourced from there. So, the chance of pissing around and leaving human waste within that place is a big possibility.

  6. White Lies

    you ever had that experience wherein you learned that your best friend is keeping something from you?

    well, it happened to me today.

    i was not hurt when i learned her secret.
    i was deeply hurt to know that she did not trust me enough to share that to me.

    we have been friends for a long time and i've already proved that i could accept whatever she was.
    it just wasn't easy to accept that i was being lied to.

    it made me question how good ...

    MY WIFE WOKE UP early and begins to prepare for our trip up north in Catmon.
