Wow, my novel in Amazon Japan!



I never even knew about this. I wish I could read in Japanese. It is kind of cool. I absolutely love it.

Are You Kidding Me, Ekaterina Vandaryeva?












Looking for some cool kickboxing clips for some updates about the kickboxing world, I stumbled upon a female boxer named Ekaterina Vandaryeva. I couldn't believe that anyone this beautiful could be a kickboxer. It is something definitely not common. Simply unbelievable: like a supermodel, like an angel. 

I know, I know. It is not like anything I had ever posted, even back in the day on my other website. But, boy, I am simply just surprised. And, rightfully so, she deserves the claim to be called 'The World's Sexiest Boxer'.

Almost New Year


I want to thank all of my readers who had continued to follow me after all these years. I have not been doing as much writing as I should, but I have been doing some from time-to-time whenever I get some free time. I could say that 2017 had been quite an experience for me.

Thank you for your support for my only book. I wish I had published more manuscripts, but for some reason, it never happened. Perhaps, in the future, I will publish more titles to come.

Defending Star Wars: The Last Jedi





For people who watched the Film:

Well, like everything in the world, you can't please everyone; however, since there are some critics on the movie that didn't like the new installment, I must say that I can't blame them because I can understand how it somehow lacked its prototypical warriors' journey.  For instance, the transition of Luke Skywalker from hero to a somewhat cowardice figure who got soft and couldn't cope with his nephew turning evil seemed a little off character to many people. His father was Darth Vader, for goodness sakes, and, he just gives up on the Jedi, the way of life in which he lived after all those years? Really?

But, if we really dig down to the core, Luke Skywalker in episode 8 is not the same as the Luke we all know from episodes 4,5,6. He is now an old man, all battered up from the battles of the past. We must construct that he may have seen his nephew, Kylo Ren, as his last hope for the way of the Jedi to survive. So, when he felt that Kylo was becoming more evil, naturally, he must have panicked because he would have interpreted it as the same transition his father, Darth Vader, underwent in the past. 

Episode 9, hopefully, clears much of the questions that episode 8 left behind. But, in terms of its worthiness in the spectrum of the Star Wars franchise, I am not disappointed.

Tae Kwon Do


When I was younger, I was much of a Tae Kwon Do geek, but for some reason, I had to stop. I had the best times ever. I'm thinking about going back to it. Tornado Kick. All that. Makes me wonder what if I had never stopped.

I remember when I thought that Tae Kwon Do was easy. Actually, it looks easy. But, after the first week, I wanted to call it quits. It turned out there was something more to this Tae Kwon Do than I had thought. What they expected was discipline. Gee. As a kid, I was as hard-headed as any teenager could be. I never listened to anyone. But, those months in Tae Kwon Do made me realize that without discipline, things get a whole lot sloppy, not just in the studio, but in life as well. So, yes, Tae Kwon Do did change me. It changed me for the better. It taught me the importance of self-discipline.
