Adventure by the Crater
Hello, Tumblr!
I apologize for not being able to blog so much during the past few weeks. I guess I was just too busy participating in life more often, and that is not exactly a bad thing. Yet still, I find myself going back to you to share some of my amazing life and travel stories.
Last Saturday was one of the most exhausting and somewhat life threatening adventure of my entire life. We...

Moment of Solemnity
Last time I visited in Hong Kong, my parents gave me the privilege to walk around to nearby places, should I want to, while they spend their time lurking around crowded malls and congested streets. Since I was never really a mall rat, I decided to hit the Victoria Park - which is situated across our hotel.
In all honesty, I felt nervous because it was my first time to go somewhere without the...

HS Never Ends
This is a late post but I still want it to be included in my Tumbler blog.
If I’m not mistaken, it was just last week where my HS friends decided to catch up and just talk about where we are now in our lives. We dined at A Veneto and had dessert at Swensen.
It was kind of nostalgic actually. Being able to bring back memories from the past is kind of a cool thing. You get to visualize how...
Don't Stop the Party
What celebration is ever complete without the after-party?
After going to Binondo, we drove ourselves all the way to Ivan’s house in Tondo. The night was still young and everyone was still ready to have a couple of drinks. Anything alcohol related, Ivan is one of the best person to talk to when you want to daze yourself off. He really knows his alcohol.
One thing you should know about...

Binondo Fever!
Last night, we rustled and bustled within the busy streets of Binondo to celebrate the birthday of my two officemates, Angge and Cat. After going thru several Chinese restaurants, the group made a decision to eat at Presidents - one of the most famous chinese restaurants that offers authentic Chinese cuisine in Binondo.
The celebrants decided to order their set menu. Let me share with you some...
Unfair
The only word that I can say after a completely enervating and exhausting day at work.
I haven’t been as positively functional as I was before. All the unanswered questions, all the inconsistencies, and all the loose ends are hampering me from evoking the performer that I was.
I’m starting to loose it. No, I have already lost it.
I try to sustain an invigorating vibe but given the...
Danz Dish 7
Yesterday, I went back to my alma matter to watch the awaited annual concert of the La Salle Dance Company-Street called “Danz Dish 7”. I have watched this concert ever since I was a freshmen, and I can’t believe that I have watched these artists perform on stage for the 5th time. 5 years of continuous support to the craft of dancing.
I guess there’s always something...

Next Step
No matter how unfamiliar the world is outside our comfort zones, we’ve always got to learn how to make a step further into the wilderness. Reasons and familiarity will surely pull us back in but sometimes, we just got to let go of reasons to understand what we are in for.
I guess in my case, there are just some scenarios where the heart hasn’t got the slightest competition with the...
Anonymous asked: Sherwin! I don't know if you remember me but I'm Paozu (LSDC-STREET) we were classmaets in fildlar before. Anyway, I just happen to come by your blog about DANZ DISH 6 so I hope you can come and watch DAN Z DISH 7. It's this thursday and friday :)
2011-2012!
Last year was definitely a year full of unwanted emotions but one thing is for sure, I ended 2011 and started 2012 just right by traveling.
Once again, I find myself being enticed by the systematic and technologically advanced country of Singapore. I have to admit, you can’t help but make comparisons when you are in a different country, but still I’m proud to say that it’s more...

Changes in a year
Bad news never really had good timing, doesn’t it?
Just when the year is about to end, you make a mistake that puts you into a state of depression once again. Just when I thought that this year could be different. Assumptions really are our number one enemy.
Being in a volatile. ambiguous, and complex world, we are all amenable to having changes. Changes in personality, lifestyle,...

Hands
Its scary, at times, how we can the exert all our gained energy over a particular task yet leave nothing for ourselves to recuperate. You start to feel that numbness in one muscle to another, then you just fail to realize that it abruptly consumed every part of your body. Your last moment drowned on the raging thoughts of uncertainty.
We all need something to lay our hands to, not just to feel,...
Year end blues
I had this spur of the moment thought that I wanted to go to the beach before the year ends. I guess a beach holds a symbolical meaning to me rather than just a place of leisure and relaxation. That moment in Boracay never seemed to unchained me from my everyday desires.
They say that we all have a particular place that we all yearn for, a place where we allow the nature of our surroundings to...

A Farewell Friday
Because in the midst of it all, one has to say goodbye sooner or later.
I witnessed today the last day of one of my dear friend in the office. She has been with connected the company for a strong and solid 4 years, and now she has decided that it’s about time to navigate herself to greener pastures.
As much as we’re excited about her new role, it saddens us that the moment we have...
Everything Gourmet!
This is one of those days where I get to fully practice spontaneity, and it was definitely a fun filled evening. T’was a great “gourmet” Thursday!
So we decided to go to Rockwell after realizing that the revenue that we, talent acquisitions, gained for the company glittered with high flying numbers. Great job, us!
We first ate at Jollibee then went straight to Happy Lemon to...
Full Body Detox
With the rise of various health supplements and procedures, my mom was able to come across with this juice fasting process that gives you a full body detoxification in just a day or three, depending on the level you choose. Since my parents are into those kinds of activities, the entire gang decided to give it a try.
I introduce thee to everyone, Juju Cleanse.
Since we need to take out the...
Time to Think
For what is a man who gains the world but losses himself in the process.
Time to rethink what you REALLY want, Sherwin.
Think when you still have time to do so.

New Found Friend
Just this day, I never felt so blessed in my entire life.
Our company decided to finally push through with an outreach activity and upon discussion of the employee engagement committee, they have decided that we will be going to the Chosen Children Village Foundation located along Silang, Cavite.
Chosen Children Village Foundation, Inc. aspires to provide a permanent home for abandoned,...

A New Habit
Yet again, another long weekend made an occurrence in the month of November. These long weekends really soothes me in every way possible, and I always make the most out of the seconds I receive so regardless of how unproductive I become, it’s in those wee moments that I get to achieve serenity at its best.
And usually, it is through those times that I get the habit of thinking. Not the...
Of costumes and Halloweens
Long gone were the days where I kept myself tied along my bed thinking about a humdrum of a life I have during halloween. If I’m not mistaken, the last legit halloween party I attended was during my grade school years where I didn’t even wear a costume, and since then I wasn’t really inclined in attending such events because it saves me the hassle of thinking of what character to...

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO SHERDIU.TUMBLR.COM!
I am so happy that I was able to maintain and constantly update my Tumblr site for 2 years and counting. Thank you Tumblr!
Cheers to 2 years!
Last Minute Ideas
I’ll be attending my first legit halloween party tomorrow.
I know, I know.
At the age of 21, who would think that this will be my 1st halloween party? I’ve attended some events that required for us to be in spooky or freaky costumes but not really one where we should dress up portraying a particular character. My friends and I tried to hunt for costumes yesterday, jumping off from...
