Single Word Sympathy
I have always found the word "condolence" to be a bit puzzling; a reason I have for not using it when expressing sympathy for someone who's dealing with the death of a loved one. To say to that person, "Condolence, (person's name)." somehow feels like giving an incredibly thirsty man hot chocolate to drink; its a nice gesture, but a glass of water would've been more appropriate.

Kids
I've always been frustrated by the fact that I know very few kids who could be goaded into doing something like those on the videos. I've never dreamt of becoming a film director, but I've always been fascinated by the creativity (not to mention perseverance) that goes into creating even just a two-minute video.
Two Williams
I was reading through a blog and in it saw this video.

Google Translate Fails and Meddlesome Folk
I just typed the word "pikon" in Google Translate and it insists that in English, its "harmony".
Oh, the irony.
Why did I attempt it? E kasi napikon ako. And I wanted to say it. But how am I supposed to, now? (Okay, so I'll tell the story.)

Quarter-life Crisis, or What Am I To Do Now?
I've recently learned that Tito Chino's wife is going to New York City to work. She'd been hired by...an accounting firm, I guess (I didn't get the details) and she'll be leaving on the fourth of February. She already has an apartment in, if I'm not mistaken, Manhattan, and once she's settled in my uncle will follow.
This is great news for them, since I think they're potential is wasted here. Hey, they are two of the most patriotic people I know, but when there are dreams to reach and mouths to feed, and you have opportunity like this knocking on your door, the only thing to do is to answer.
