Highway Drift: May 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Saturday, May 20, 2006. On the Way to Work. I am a regular witness to a lovely scene along EDSA, in the stretch of Wheels-to-Go, between Robinson's Hyper Mart and the Guadalupe Bridge. It is an especially refreshing sight for me since I am in the last part of my travel to work, having spent the last twenty minutes in the jeepney, enduring the pollution and traffic jams along the way. I wonder when I would be in that situation. Disco bar ...

Highway Drift: A Tale of Two Political Scandals
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2008/02/tale-of-two-political-scandals.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Friday, February 08, 2008. A Tale of Two Political Scandals. Maybe I'll just share what I have commented in Philstar.com last February 8 and 9. It was largely uncontested by even the rabid ones so I guess it has passed a moderate litmus test (or maybe, even if a couple considered it "comprehensive," most just ignored my very long comment). Here it is, slightly edited for Highway Drift standards:. Let me enumerate my observations so far:.

Highway Drift: April 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Wednesday, April 26, 2006. In me they also raise envy. Envy for they gush out their ideas and emotions while I keep mine neatly packed inside; that others, like me, can read, digest and even resonate with these writings while mine remain isolated, unused and unappreciated. Lastly, there is also pride- more aptly, egoism. I know I can write just like them because I have done it before, in brief moments of glory. Heck! Maybe, just maybe.

Highway Drift: November 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Sunday, November 26, 2006. I'm currently in an insecurity funk, blogging-wise. It all started last month when I was searching for a blog from a current student in the high school where I spent the last of my "boyhood days" and the beginning of my "manhood years," as I sung its song back then. Now it's a gender-sensitive "childhood days" and "youthful years" due to a shift into co-education two years, mere two years. Series although that ...

Highway Drift: Drifting Thoughts 06
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2008/03/drifting-thoughts-06.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Sunday, March 16, 2008. Last February 23 to 25, I was in Baguio. It was my second visit to the City of Pines; the first one was 18 years ago. Eighteen years! This particular weekend was the time for Baguio's Panagbenga (Blossoming) Festival, which is highlighted by a parade of flower-decked floats similar to the one in Pasadena, California. I actually learned of the schedule only at midday of February 23 and, with nothing. My sightseeing...

Highway Drift: July 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Sunday, July 23, 2006. Summer 2006 Escapades (Part 4 of 5). Rainy days have come. What better time to let the summer sun shine once again, at least in our minds. White Beach, Puerto Galera. The first part of the one-hour crossing consisted of an uneventful treading of an all-blue expanse. Thankfully, it was sunny that day. There were constant waves, but not the towering ones. The wind blew just strong enough to keep us cool&#...The clean...

Highway Drift: October 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Sunday, October 22, 2006. Wrestling with the Wind (Part 2 of 3). Back then, with extensive damage to city infrastructure and utilities requiring about a week to fix (or wait for reprieve from nature, in case of flooded areas), our semestral break was extended to seven more days (oh joy! It was exploration galore! There were no more monumental discoveries, no new landscape to play around with. I had lost the childhood innocence and co...

Highway Drift: Armchair Columnist
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2008/09/armchair-columnist.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Wednesday, September 03, 2008. Sorry for the absence in the past couple of months. I was in other realms of the Intarwebz, pursuing some rekindled interests. Meanwhile, the country has again treaded upon interesting times. 1 It did not cover the other existing armed groups most notably the MILF and the Abu Sayaff. 2 There was no provision for disarmament of the MNLF. You quoted FVR's speech proclaiming himself a peacemaker and according ...

Highway Drift: June 2006
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Friday, June 30, 2006. First a short introduction:. Moving on, without further ado, I present to you Mister J. Guess which song I translated this from. And yes, if you know, you can sing it using this English translation. When the sun sets to a dim. Creatures unleash their horror grim. They are the enemies of our liberator*. And out they go to gather en masse. In the evening dim. You won't see an iota. Cept for their eyes lookin' at ya;.

Highway Drift: To Kill a Crashing Bird
http://highwaydrift.blogspot.com/2008/02/to-kill-crashing-bird.html
Past glories, future dreams, present dramas . You'll get the drift. Friday, February 29, 2008. To Kill a Crashing Bird. I was supposed to write some travel entry- significant since it had been 18 years since I last went to that place- but the photos aren't available yet. With the nation's penchant of getting preoccupied solely on the current political circus, Filipinos might be blissfully unaware that the United States and China had started war in outer space. Of course I'm exaggerating. Or am I? Or NROL...
