No direction

Having been a "bum" (mildly speaking) for the past few months have been nothing but a rollercoaster ride.

I mean, sure, I got to rest (which, by the way, I heavily needed), but having no actual goal or destination so to speak makes it a little bit boring.

No, I haven't been lazying around all the time. I have traveled a bit since I resigned, to be honest.

It's just that career-wise, I feel like there's nothing else for me.

Chili Buttered Garlic Shrimp

This is one of my favorite dishes to cook, so I figured I could write the recipe and share it.

Ingredients:
  • 1/4 kg shrimp
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 50g unsalted butter
  • 100 mL Sprite or 7-Up
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch as sauce thickener
  • iodized salt, ground pepper, and ground cayenne pepper to taste

    Wedding Vows

    After watching Toni G. and Direk Paul's wedding last Saturday, I was inspired to create my own "imaginary wedding vows".

    -------------------------------------

    For longest time I have resigned to the fact that I would be single forever, or as most people would like to call it, "Single Blessedness." Who would, in fact, have the courage, and audacity to be with someone as flawed, as imperfect, as broken, as insecure like me? But there you were, willing to take on the challenge, in spite of and despite of everything.

    Who would have thought that I would get to this place? I, for one, certainly did not. Never, NEVER in my wildest dreams, that I would stand in front of the altar with you.
