38th MMFF: <i>Thy Womb</i>
on Jan 15, 2013I was a bit disappointed with last year’s crop of Metro Manila Film Festival entries. Among the eight films, I only had interest in watching three: Thy Womb, El Presidente, and Sisterakas (in decreasing order of preference). Thy Womb received n...

<i>Ang Nawawala</i>

2010 Top 10 Movies
on Feb 26, 2011I guess it’s no longer a tradition if you’re going to break it for three years but in the spirit of blogging, I’m going to restart my yearly post of presenting the top 10 movies of the previous year that I’ve seen, just like w...



Somebody Actually Got a Tattoo of My Phi Logo
on Jan 29, 2011I blogged in 2008 that if ever I would get a permanent tattoo, I would get something like the one pictured above. This is a stylized Greek letter phi which represents the golden ratio. The golden ratio is my favorite number by far and I just love how...
