My former teammate Jo got married to Ferdie last Sunday, January 20. Both wedding and reception were held in Quezon City.

Gelle’s Birthday Surp
Gelle, one of my best friends in P&G, turned a year older today. Last year we had cooked up a surprise for her — I planned a videoke session and secretly invited her boyfriend Joey to join us.

When he quit playing in PBA, I lost interest and basketball became the #1 cause of fights between me and my brother Ivan. We fought over the remote control whenever he wanted to […]
