Scribbling Neurons

Dream it. Draft it. Do it.

  • The Best House Episode?!

    I’d say I’m torn among three: M.D. tandem Season 3: Episode 4 -Lines in the Sand Season 4: Episode 11- Frozen Season 5: Episode 4 – Birthmarks These episodes seethed with life because of scathingly honest -occasionally ridiculous- conversations of characters, the crispiest lines mainly from Greg House. You’ll feel like you totally know how each of them…

  • Chased by Shadows

    Fairies blew dust to my eyes that I couldn’t resist opening them as early as 6am today. Yeah, Peter Pan slept beside me, so Tinker Bell jealously pulled my hair. Alas, sweet slumber no more! Surprisingly, Neverland wasn’t a dream, I woke up having it within grasp. “I say, how do you do it(flying)?” John asked. “You just…

  • Do Not Disturb!

    To keep my job, I’ve got to be an expert juggler. Tabs of varied functions need to be served equally, not to mention the favorite corporate term, “urgently“: MS Excel for delivery tracking, MSN messenger for love life, oopps, office communicator I mean, lotus notes for email alerts, notepad for blog drafts,Les Miserables for reading race, longman dictionary as…

  • What’s with Olivia Wilde?

    Watching House started as my way to beat the blues (yeah, a chaotic part of my brain emits loads of this). Hugh Laurie, I fancied, was as manic-depressive and brilliant as House (the role he portrayed). Wiki did confirm my hunch. I was looking forward to seeing a woman in the show who’d inspire or…

  • Reawakening

    What’s the difference between a 25 y/o Issa and a 24 one? A minute. Excuse my humor practice. I’ve been emotional lately that I cry seeing a yellow cake and a yellow bear. Was it a coincidence that I received presents with a touch of yellow? Never mind the question- it’s trivial. What matters is that I’m still alive on…

  • Back To School

    When some consonant clusters and long vowels are still yet to be mastered, would a student be able to learn concepts such as transpiration, precipitation, reproduction and excretion? My tutee’s Geography and Science lessons, Water Cycle and Life Processes respectively, demand that he decode consonants and vowels flawlessly. Not only does he have to keep…

  • Eid Fun and Flaws

    Much to my delight, the week ended with a restored peace of mind. Losing sleep over matters not even brought up first to the concerned person is just a wrecker of beauty, energy and time. Saturday was teemed with social activities, so I was locked in bed ‘til 8 of Sunday morn. I should work…

  • Learners’ Dwelling Place

    As fanatics of Little Women II (Jo’s Boys), my sisters and I dreamt of putting up a home-like school on a hilltop surrounded by pine trees, songbirds, meadows and a shallow stream.

  • The Good Heart

    Lucas, a homeless, good-hearted young man, has given up on life when he meets Jacques, the hard-hearted, sickly, sole owner of an old-fashioned men’s bar in New York. Jacques thought he could train Lucas to be his successor so he nestles him under his wings and teaches him the trade’s beatitudes and secrets. Fate must…

  • Part of Your Life

    We could walk along the shores by night, And make love in the sand, Take you mountain-climbing in the morning light, I’ll lead you by the hand. Or we could sail the oceans blue, And everyday there’s something new, If you let me be part of your life, All these things I’ll do with you….
