The Handorf Humour

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

Just a bit of a precaution though. This post is not suitable for minors. Plus throw in the dimwitted. No need for the likes of you ’round this parts. No sense really. Confused? Then move along. Heh.

Yes, take a seat and rest a bit. It’s time for a bit of a break. No one said [...]

Oz Welcome and Celebrating 31 Years

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

The Oz Welcome
Pushing a trolley laden with a set of luggage amounting to 60kgs (or somewhere close) became less taxing when I saw a beautiful family holding up a home-made placard saying “Welcome Lola & Tita!” walking through the airport doors. Now, that’s what I call a warm and love-filled welcome! I’ve always wanted to [...]

MNL - SGP - ADL

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

Seems like I can’t sit still, yes? Memories of the trips to Vietnam and Cambodia early this year is still fresh yet here I am, leaving the country yet again. The Parodist is off to spend some time in Australia. It’s been two (2) years since my last visit. I wonder what sort of changes [...]

The Traveler: Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Friday, September 26th, 2008

I went on a short trip to Palawan a couple of weeks back and stayed mainly in Puerto Princesa. Twas my third visit, last was back in June 2005. Previous visits were mostly to discover fabulous beaches like Dos Palmas and Sabang, island-hopping in Honda Bay and check out a few island attractions like the [...]

Today I Am Thankful, Week 4

Monday, July 28th, 2008

A day late but with good reason. How can I possibly let this week pass without a post on the things that I’m thankful for? Esp since this past week, I was reminded of the dreams I had listed down eight (8) years ago. Yes, I have a journal to prove it. LOL.
We all have [...]

The Traveler: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Look up. You’ll see that there aren’t many towering skyscrapers in Ho Chi Minh City, aka Saigon. But you will notice that there are quite a number of tall trees scattered around the metro.
You don’t really need to strain your neck, there are a lot of interesting things to see on its streets anyway.

They [...]

When Good Things Come in Small Packages

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Can you believe how small oranges can be as sweet as the regular-sized ones? Admittedly, I’m not particularly fond of oranges. I’d pick an apple over it any day but I know nothing of the existence of mini-apples. Hence, my fascination with these mini-oranges. Notice how small they are compared to the orange slice [...]

I Blame the PS3!

Monday, March 31st, 2008

I’ve been absent. Yes. And I wish I can really put all the blame on my newest baby, a Playstation 3. But I only got my hands on it at the end of this month. I’ve been terribly busy in terms of online and offline responsibilities esp since I was out of the country for [...]

The Traveler: A Taste of Vigan and Everything North

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

Here are a few notes and snapshots of my recent trip up North aboard the campaign caravan organised by the party of Senator Kiko Pangilinan. I’d like to note, however, that I’m in no way a political blogger, so, be warned that this is merely a traveler’s scribbled encoded thoughts and observations.
I agreed [...]
