What makes me tired ..
Here in the Philippines, sun set much much earlier - as early as 6pm ! Early sunset makes you feel the night is longer, even with early sun rise the next day. Porky biological clock is not functioning properly because of this phenomenon - feeling restless, heart beating faster than normal. He think he is turning into a Bearwolf ! (pksh : werewolf)

It's 5 Nov 15 !
Cat slept early the night before and he's up as early as 0330 am on Thursday wee hours. Eyes as big as Digby, brain as active as Porky - ever scheming. It was a stressful day before, stressful week and nearly a complete stressful month now, soon it will be end of 2015 ! wow, bamazing. Commitment at work is unbelievably over the wall, long absurd hours spend in meetings, trying to figure a way out of all the unnecessary problems created by morons. According to Porky, morons are the opposite of minions. Sometime, it makes you think and rethink and overthink the purpose of our life in this world - does it really matters if one pushes so hard in life or it will suffice just taking a back seat in everything ? Well, Porky says - YOU .. go back to sleep now ! - ok lorrrr... follow his advice lorrr...

Iron Chef - No. 1 Cooking Show !
There are plenty of cooking show nowadays, just too many of them. Some who can't even cook properly can go on TV and starred in his own cooking show. Porky says this is below substandard (worst !). The only group of chefs that got the Porkydigans Bapproval(sort of Michelin standard) so far is the Iron Chef ! The originals of course - old school circa 93-99. These are the real chefs, even after 16 years, their cooking skills are still legendary. Porky says we only deserve the best food, and it must come from the best chefs - the Iron Chefs !

Watching their cooking skills being put to test in a battle at the Kitchen Stadium chaired by Chairman Naga in only 1 hr is always exciting and one our favorite past times. Never got tired of watching it according to Porky ! - now we added new pages of these battles for easy viewing. To access - right side link name ' Iron Chef Battles'. BENJOY !
The Funny Truth About Time
Time is a precious commodity. It surely flies and one should make full use of it during his/her short time on earth. Living a life everyday without achieving any dream or life goals can be considered an incomplete life. To look back in time and see how far we have come to where we stand at the moment, we believe that is the ultimate trophy for living a full life. It might feel uncomfortable now, as we went outside the box trying something new and risky. Whereas others prefer a stable and peaceful way of living - with feeling of in control of their daily life by repeating routines, and be satisfied with it. This is not the case - we however choose a different path of living, that is to concentrate all our effort and time to realizing our dreams. It has not been easy, but eventually one day in the future when we look back on all the extraordinary things that we have done to bring us closer to achieving our dream, we can proudly say we have lived a life that is full and those who look at us differently before finally understand that they ran out of time !
camping in our own backyard - cool
