Back to My Little Woods


It’s 1:00 AM in the morning. I just opened my eyes as I went back from my wanderings in Dreamland to reality. My mind was still trying to unload the excess dreaminess carried over from Dreamland.

I hit the bathroom and splashed some water on my body, hoping to wake up my whole soul. How could someone remove this dreaminess after sleeping for 16 hours? Yes, I slept for 16 hours.

And I think, I am going back to Hibernation period… a period in a year that I usually sleep for very very long hours. I can sleep for the whole 24 hours.

Maybe I am just tired with the whole thing in life.

I may need a break. I need a vacation… somewhere far, somewhere I can find my little woods of joys!

As a grabbed a good mug of coffee, and sipped some of the highly concentrated caffeine liquid, I began to think about my life. Of things, I used to do but now ceased to do. Of little things I enjoyed but now somewhat forgotten. I feel like I am already one of those mundane things in this universe! I no longer differ! I no longer see the distinct me in this crowded world.

Maybe it is time for me to break from my usual routine… time for me to find something productive and worthwhile, something I will really do to secure my long-term happiness.

Maybe, going back to writing will provide me a little escapism, or a needed break.

Maybe, going back to solving problems will give me the joy I am looking for.

Maybe, spending more time on photography will show me more direction, more light in how I view life.

Oh well, I needed to start somewhere so I opened my blogs again and realized that I have not been writing for more than a year now (for some of my blogs more than 3 years already).

I used to write to express what I thought, as well as to exercise my command of English language. However, somewhere sometime I ceased to write.

How about going back?

Yes, I will go back to writing. But before that, I need to revisit my blogs.

THE CHILDREN OF MY MIND

The Seven of Nine

I opened this blog to jut down my thoughts on everything and anything. I had already several entries, almost 200 of them since 2006. This is not my first blog. The first was somewhere in the archive of Live Journal, the time when I was drowned by my thoughts on love and sentimentalism.

The Seven of Nine, should be my general blog, every though I may think of should go in that blog. It experienced the same fate as my other endeavours in life… it was stalled and became stagnant!

It needs to be reborn and I need to breathe life again to this.

But before that, it needs a new look!


Neelix’s Kitchen

It was created in 2007, a place where I can put the clamors of my tongue, the musings of my mind on food, and my expertise in the kitchen and table.

Oh well, it never really kicked off. I just had some few entries but never really wrote something worthwhile.

And now, I think it deserve another consideration because after-all I am an epicurean! A bulk portion of my salary goes to food! So, I think it also deserve some of my time just like how I give time to eating!


How about the look? Well for now, it works!

Enterprise

Yes, the name can tell everything about this blog. It is for my travels and exploration! Yes, it will tell everything about my escapade, my goal of stepping on all the 7,107 islands of the Philippines, my dreams of visiting all the wonders of the ancient world, my ambition of exploring the corners of the world and my childhood wish of exploring the Universe.

This is the place where I chronicle all of my travels. It should be the basket of my photos of the different views of the world and places.

But, this blog never really took off. Nothing happened to it for 4 hours. Created 4 years ago with no growth at all! That’s crap of me.

I travel a lot, so I guess it is just right for me to re-launch this site


Need to revamp the look as well.

So many things to fix, so many ideas to write, so many words to explore.

And not to mention thousand and thousand of pictures to upload.

It is just I am a lazy guy… who knows nothing but sleep and sleep and sleep.

It is better for me to convert those 16 sleeping hours into something productive and useful.

And I think of spending them in re-launching my blog sites!

It is time for me to go back to my little woods!

Holocene Calendar

If there will be a worldwide plebiscite on the replacement of Gregorian Calendar with Holocene Calendar I will vote for "Yes." I absolutely agree with the reasons presented by Cesare Emiliani.

By using the Holocene Calendar, the year now would be 12009 HE.

Coffee Quotes

I got these quotes from a blog of a physicist (Shores of Dirac Sea).

"Every theorist knows that without coffee there is no physics." - David Berenstein

"Coffee is the lubricant of good ideas." - David Berenstein


And this one from Paul Erdos.

"Mathematicians are machines turning coffee into theorems." - Paul Erdos

Ingredients

When I cook, I will never miss the following:

1. Tomatoes (Photo to follow)

2. Ginger, onions, and other based flavor.


3. And of course, the "Herbs."

By the line above, you know by now that I am a coffee lover. In the my upcoming posts, I will introduce to you my world of coffees and coffee shops, from the energy-kicking aroma of simple daily drip to the tantalizing taste of CBTL triple decker cake.

But for now, this is how I like my coffee.

The Best for my Tongue

Pasta! This is one of my favorite cuisines, especially if this is cooked in Italian way, not sweet but a little sour and full of pure tomato sauce or olive oil with a lot of herbs.

Yesterday, my dad and I had lunch in Almon Marina, Mall of Asia. Here's my order, Osso Buco and Cappuccino.
