An interesting fact about one person is an entertainment for another. And to culminate this personal statement, let me tell you that I will be one of the best ‘conversationalist’ that you can ever talk to. Well, provided that my English, Filipino, and Chinese Mandarin can suffice with our exchange of ideas. But usually after I have managed to bring down the wall with people that I meet, conversation normally ends with smiles and laughter.

Also, I’m the type of guy that constantly likes to have challenge in his life. I have found myself before venturing into singing competitions, dance contests, and even sports such as basketball, badminton, and table tennis. I enjoy doing things which are aside from being fun, I personally find hard to acquire skills on. So even though I don’t end up being a pro, I still get to learn something from those joyful experiences and such. In line with this, and the fact that I never really gotten good at swimming, I’ll be scuba diving next week in Anilao, Batangas, a popular diving spot here in the Philippines.

But apart from challenges, I also have ‘needs’ to feed on. I like an eclectic selection of music, as long as it suits my taste. I enjoy a party scene as much and as well as the next breath taking nature. I’m into technology and gadgets, and have to always be in close proximity with my laptop, my pocket pc / mobile phone, and my mp3 player.

I’m also highly motivated on the things, goals, or project that I seriously put my mind onto. My studies for example, where I have always managed to be ahead of the bunch, landed me with scholarship on the best science high school up to the best university in the country. I don’t compromise my priorities, and oftentimes find myself tapping on my innate resourcefulness to manage through the twists and turns of life. In line with that I’m a true blooded optimist, with an ample exposure to reality. I believe that there’s hope in the future, and every person owes to give something back to the society, and that can be as simple as voting, following traffic rules, or giving your seat to a standing lady in the bus.

And when my spirit is calling for some light heartedness, I am always game for the next clubbing, out-of-town road trip, socializing, movie and mall going. Or when push comes to shove, I can just sit on my couch and do a DVD marathon in front of the television all day.

(March 2008 - text above was a supplementary to a conference that I applied for in SG, which might explain why it's so stiff and airy.hehe.Anyways, the idea is more or less accurate so might as well put it into good use.)

I'm back on the game. I actually have a much shorter hair right now, hence parties have become plenty again... feel free to invite me, ok?
