Making a Creative Resume 2013
Three years ago, I decided to totally revamp my resume and make it more visually appealing. Since my line of work is in the creative industry, I didn’t think twice about injecting a bit of fun and personality into my curriculum vitae. And even though I personally don’t look for work at any agencies, some of my clients still ask for a copy so always having an updated one is important. More…
SNAPSHOTS: Doodles and dumplings
With the intention of finding my muse and getting back into doodling shape, I gathered a few of my illustrator friends for a sketchwalk in Manila’s best place for old architecture, bustling streets, and authentic Chinese food–Binondo! More…
Spoiled for the weekend at Summit Ridge Hotel
Don't I look like one of those resort boys? Lol.
Who would pass up a chance to spend a weekend away from the blazing heat of summer in Manila? Not me. Especially when I was invited by the nice people of Summit Ridge to try out their summer offerings. More…
Dia de los Muertos 2.0
I started this one last January but I couldn’t finish it for some reason that it felt something was missing. This was supposed to be a reprise since the previous version seemed to dark for me. Anyway, I wanted to finish it today just so I can move on to other things. Hahaha.
Talkin’ talk at Vector the Future
Back in January, my great vector buddy Rhaf asked me if I was interested to give a talk for an event that their organization, Vector X Vexel, is cooking up for April. Of course, I obliged. Aside from wanting to share some vectoring tips, it was a personal test for me as well. More…
30 days on the road
It was an idea that has been hovering above my head for over a year but I’ve been afraid to take the first step. I filled my thoughts with unnecessary fear and countless ‘what ifs’ about the uncertainties that could lie ahead. More…
LOOKBOOK: Mt. Popa
On our last day in Bagan, we hopped on a van that’ll take us to one of the most popular tourist sites there–Mt. Popa! Our group stopped by a weekend market where we had locals apply thanaka on our faces which kept us a little refreshed throughout the day. Several meters later and we found ourselves at the Popa Taungkalat monastery atop the famous mountain. More…
LOOKBOOK: Temple Running
We woke up at 4:00 in the morning and biked around in darkness only to catch the sunrise at one of the temples in Bagan. Unlike during daylight, it was quite chilly in the morning but pedaling our way to Buala Thi temple was enough to keep us warm. More…
LOOKBOOK: Biking in Bagan
It was always almost 40 degrees in Myanmar but it didn’t stop us from biking around to see the thousands of temples and pagodas scattered all over. When travelling under extreme weather, one would prioritize function over fashion, but of course it had to be an equal concern for me. More…
LOOKBOOK: Made for Melaka
And so I finally took a step forward and started my month-long backpacking trip across two countries. With limited clothes inside a couple of bags that should last me for several days, I tried to capture some of the looks during the first few days of my stay in Melaka, Malaysia. More…
