Wear yourself through TIMEX

TIMEX® Originals Vintage Inspired 1978
I remember someone saying watches are now being replaced by technology. By that, he meant phones and other gadgets. Well, I do not agree. Go to different places, wear your watch, and you will not worry about your time. When you are traveling, things might be so surprising, and you might be so excited that you'll jump into a river with your phone in your pocket! That would be a serious problem. But with watches, you can always be on the go. Needless to say, almost all watches now are water resistant! So next time you go outside, don't forget to wear one!

Introducing TIMEX® Originals Vintage Inspired 1978!  As one who loves traveling and staying outside, wearing this TIMEX® Hero watch best suits the personality I have!

This watch offers me two interchangeable straps. When the sun is in full bloom, I would pick the orange one! The color suits my style of clothing. Plus, the color reflects something that is lively and full of enthusiasm. It's perfect because I love music and crowd! And when adventure time is on, the black strap would simply do it. With the classy, vintage-inspired watch and a jacket, I can go to every place I want.

But most especially, I was in love with the design. I am a very simple man and this watch, for me, defines simplicity. When going outside, what's important is you are confident with what you are wearing. It defines you and it becomes you at the end of the day.

So, again. The next time you go outside, don't forget to wear one! Don't forget to wear a hero! Don't forget to wear yourself!

Rekindling What was Long Forgotten

When I was a kid, I was particular with details. I plan and create, and when I found the work dull, I ponder and do the work again. I love putting unnecessary details, but in the long run, I learned to keep my work simple. I forgot about the glitters and the ribbons. I forgot the curly lines and the colorful shadows that dance around figures and letters. They are all gone but not my love in the arts. I am happy that some people began to appreciate the things I draw. My daycare teacher would choose me to go to competitions which I do not like before. I have this fear. I do not want to face many people so the letters my teacher would ask me to give to my mother would end up being thrown in the river. But one day, I forgot the routine so mom learned about it and trained me. No matter how they like me to draw, I would make a square window circle thinking they would rather make me stay inside the house than go to the city and compete with other children. Soon, the competition came, and I ended up coloring my drawing and explaining to the audience what was it. I can still remember that time even if that's thirteen years ago, and I can't stop laughing at myself--what a silly kid I was. It became a stepping stone to me. I drew more and tried making posters. When projects come, I finish them easily and even make some money by doing other classmates' projects. High school was even more exciting. You do posters here, posters there. Every program has its own poster-making competitions, so I tried to win some, and win some more. It was fun actually. In my first, I lost. But after it, I began wrecking balls! I win every competition I joined. When I began to notice it, I tried doing slogans, and I always landed third! I wonder why. College was another stage in my life. I became simpler than what my mind could imagine. I was satisfied by completing the work, the usual presentations, projects and what have you, without putting extra effort to make them more presentable. I remember a comment from a teacher: "You are very minimalist." Actually, I love the comment. It made me even more minimalistic, but don't be like me because people tend to appreciate things with special touches. Like what my law prof would say, I say, bahala ka diyan. Today, I just discovered things again. I dared to make some collages and paintings to keep myself sane.

This is Yu-Gi-Oh


This is a part of my life that I value so much. From my elementary days up to this time, I'm still playing and collecting cards as much as possible. No regrets, yeah, I can say this because there is no reason at all to hate or abandon this game.

Skill, creativity, faith, power, respect, honesty, luck, these are just some of the things duelists have to have or possess in order to be called a genuine duelist, a true Yu-Gi-Oh player!

Of course, there is so much thrill in every duel. That is why I like the game. The thrill is just so awesome, players do know how it feels like. Every deck has its strengths and weaknesses so everybody will really experience defeat. Either you win or lose as long as you played fairly, you will enjoy the game!

To my fellow duelists, keep igniting the "heart of the cards" in you. Even if people may not understand why we love this game, we will still continue playing this one. Be a proud deulist! United we stand!
