I have decided to start this Blog Series about myself. It’s like getting to know “The Blogger” series, I call it KAYNE Series. As I visit random blogs, interact and share my posts and comments with them, I stumble upon Da Dominguez’s page saw her Blog series entitled How To Really Know Someone – she got it on a tumblr post, questions came from this link.

Come, Follow Me
And he said to them, “Come, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” – Matthew 4:19 Three weeks ago the above verse is the highlight of one of the daily gospel which happens to be a topic we discussed in our household. Of course I have read it ahead of time since it has become a habit for me to read and post the good news daily on Facebook. Come, household night; we prayed, worship and eventually started sharing. While everyone shared their piece a thought has hit me. “Come Follow Me”. My sharing was about me being asked by God to Follow Him in a…

My 4th of July
[ My instagram post today 04/07/2016 ] Yes, it has been 11 years! The Pipers11 now The Pipers & Co is celebrating our 11 years of friendship that started in UC-ESL. I remember clearly that first day of work. I came early – probably the first among the new teachers and met that white chinita girl (I thought a Korean) but actually Pinay! 11 of us started it and now this friendship has grown bigger that Phil called it The Pipers & Company (co.) Will not name them here but they know who they are! Salamat sa friendship, salamat sa time and memories together. Even-though we rarely meet nowadays,…

Underground River – Palawan
Palawan has been a familiar name to me ever since I was in high school. A cousin of mine married someone from the place so they settled in this place known as the cleanest city in the Philippines, Puerto Princesa Palawan. See the #ByaheNgKokobears Palawan Adventure overview here. I have been curious about the world renowned Underground River and just last year (2015) December I had my personal experience of this enchanting place! Let me start by saying at first I thought we were unlucky to be in Palawan during these final days of the year wherein the last sets of typhoons are also scheduled to hit the places…

Why I Write?
June 2016 In the current status of the world, during this Information age – many of us will say that we are a writer in our own right. I guess it’s safe to say that more than ever, there are more writers today than that of history. The amount of creative writing programs in the schools or on the internet have blown up with the use of Social media and as far as I know there are over 100 million blogs circulating the world wide web, and mine is only a speck of it :). I purchased a WD (Writer’s Digest) magazine in December 2015 and found that there are…

K-Drama Resurrected 2016!
Haha! I found this blog’s title a bit crazy! But indeed I have been michin (미친) = “crazy” lately! Haahaha It’s been a while since I last watched a Korean drama – almost 8 years ago I have been really really hooked but it faded when I left the ESL World. Then this plan of going to Seoul probably switched that button on for me to once again watch these series. Below I enumerated the K-Dramas I have watched with a little background about it and the reason why I watched them. I started with My Love from Another star and found myself playing one drama after the other.…
