Caught in the Middle

Note: This is not a movie review and is not only for baseball fans. But I suggest you watch the movie “Moneyball” first before reading this writeup.

“I'm just a little bit caught in the middle
Life is a maze and love is a riddle
I don't know where to go, can't do it alone
I've tried and I don't know why

Slow it down, make it stop or else my heart is going to pop
'Cause it's too much, yeah it's a lot to be something I'm not
I'm a fool out of love 'cause I just can't get enough”

-    Lenka from the song “The Show”

I know this is quite late, but I just recently watched “Moneyball.” Thanks to the Philippine cinemas for not showing this movie. “Moneyball” is a film about how baseball sabermetrics came into fruition. It is about Oakland Athletics’ general manager Billy Beane strategizing to make his cost-cutting team become competitive enough to battle the big market teams.

Hotel Review: Acacia Hotel

I have never made a review on a place before, but I will nonetheless do this one because I had a great experience. I do not know if the fact that I will be leaving my family in the next couple of days has got to do with this. The past few weeks have been hectic for me and it seemed that this was the time when I really got the time to relax and bond with my family.

Last Thursday, my family got to avail our free stay at Acacia Hotel located at Alabang. We got to use two rooms for an overnight stay. For a guy who wanted to rest (my despedida the previous night ended at 3 AM), bond with his family, and buy stuff for his relocation preparations, all I can say is…

…wait for it…
