Its time to dust off my keyboard and put it to good use again. I've just realized that I've been using a brand spankin' new one for the past month and I've never used it to post something on my blog. That's kind of hypocritical when I've always thought of myself as a writer.

In my defense, I once wrote that writing is a lot like taking a dump: you can't force it.

I like that metaphor. I think I'll start using it.

I'd like to think that the long hiatus I took from blogging was a bout of self-imposed constipation. But the break's over. 2 month's worth of crap is about to come spewing from my fingers, to the keyboard, into the screen, through the internet, and finally into some reader's face.

Ok, Let's stop using that metaphor now because I seriously doubt that somebody's going to appreciate shit flying through their monitors and hitting them square in the face.

What have I been up to these past few months?

Aside from losing a few days and nights to my new game of choice, PW, nothing much has changed really.

I'm still going out with a lovely and intelligent lady who never fails to keep me on my toes.

I'm still the proud head of The New Builder, the finest collection of misfits I've ever had the honor of working with.

And I'm still in Mapua, although these past days I've started to feel the anxiety associated with leaving a place you've come to call home. A sensation I fully recognize because I am immensely terrible with goodbyes.

I hate ends.

And since my term in office and my life as a college student are both drawing to a close, that familiar mix of sadness and elation is once again creeping into my heart.

I only hope it has due cause (which translates to: I hope my time as a college student is really ending and that I wont fail any units by the end of this term).

Anyway, I think I'll go play a little before going to bed. Adios Amigos. And thanks for stopping by ;)
