		<title>Thank God for &#8216;Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
A few months ago, I was teaching my 4-year old nephew some nursery rhymes with a DVD.  After a lot of singing, he slowly digested the story that the rhymes tell.  And then he began asking rather uncomfortable questions. One of the first rhymes I taught him was Humpty Dumpty.
Humpty Dumpty sat on [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Winding Road</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
&#8220;I think you&#8217;re 80% straight.&#8221;
I was startled by these ridiculous words from my friend Chemae. We were walking back to the cottage at a resort in my hometown in Batangas. The conversation went like this:
Yoshke: Well, that remaining 20% makes me totally gay. 1% can make someone gay, you know.
 Chemae: I think in time, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Movie Rundown &#124; July 2008</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wanted (2008)
Genre: Action, Thriller; Director: Timur Bekmambetov
Stars: James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman


I love love love this film. In fact, of all the movies I&#8217;ve seen this year, this is my favourite. Although many would have expected a complex plot, Wanted has a simple, solid, brave storyline which is executed beautifully. Technically, prepare for a visual orgasm. Might be [...]]]></description>

		<title>London</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Exactly a month ago, I was staying at my brother&#8217;s room, watching Pushing Daisies (oh, Lee Pace is just sooo cute I wanna be dead and be touched by him), when my mother came in and said she wanted to talk. Something that never fails to send me to utter discomfort.
Mum: You told your Tita [...]]]></description>

		<title>That &#8220;Eureka&#8221; Moment:Top 10 Accidental Inventions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[






Everybody knows the story of how Archimedes accidentally realized how to measure the volume of irregularly-shaped objects just by soaking himself in a tub. The story of how Alexander Fleming unintentionally discovered the bacteria-fighting properties of a certain mold, which would later inspire the invention of penicillin, is being taught in schools. These are just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Domestic Plight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A grim incident has transformed our home into a mini-hospital. The air inside the house is perfumed with microbicides and alcohol. Trash bins are brimming with used bandages and cotton balls. Rooms are adorned with antibiotics and painkillers lying around. The coffee table is covered with CT scan results and X-Ray plates. And almost every [...]]]></description>

		<title>Somebody Console Me!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Status: Harried.
Music: The Game of Love &#124; Santana feat Michelle Branch

Hahaaay. Euro 2008 Final. Germany lost to Spain 0-1.
I feel too harried and melancholic. Germany is really my favourite team. I&#8217;m in love with them as a group. And again, they came so close to grabbing that trophy but aaaargh, the Spanish team were just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bioman Who?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I hate it when my friends talk about Bioman. Why? Because I can&#8217;t relate. I can&#8217;t remember even a single moment I watched Bioman. I don&#8217;t know what their powers were and what they could do. I don&#8217;t know its theme song, either. I remember Shaider, Ultraman, Koseidon, He-Man, She-Ra, Conan the Barbarian, Maskman, and [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Ang hirap kasi sa inyong mga Amerikano, ang hilig n&#8217;yong makialam. Ang hilig n&#8217;yong makisawsaw. Sa Iraq, sa Vietnam, sa Pilipinas&#8230;. Eh kung hindi ba naman kayo pumunta dito nung Panahon ng mga Kastila, eh malamang hindi kami nadamay sa World War II.&#8221;

Music: Look After You &#124; The Fray

Surprise, surprise. I&#8217;m terribly sick again. Guess what? Tonsilitis. Again. My fifth this year. Damn it. But I&#8217;m currently at a net station in Trinoma, waiting for the next screening of Get Smart. And I&#8217;m watching alone. Sick and alone. Loser. Haha.

Anyway, last week, a friend sent me [...]]]></description>
