Unique Tattoo He has a tattoo on his back inked on the ancient Filipino writing called Alibata/Baybayin. Clockwise, it reads MUNDO (earth), HANGIN (wind), APOY (fire), TUBIG (water). Those four are the elements of mother nature.

Brandon claimed in the interview that he went surfing one day and sought to conquer the waves. The waves brought him down and gave Brandon a profound respect for mother nature.

Influences

He states international boxing star Manny Pacquiao as an inspiration for him to become great in his sport.

To Blog Or Not To Blog

Friday, June 16th, 2006

I’ve been asking myself this question for several weeks now….I’ve seen friends getting the hang of blogging and it seems to be the fad nowadays….

But still, shall I blog because everybody is doing it and seems to be enjoying it? It’s 1:27 am on my watch right now and what am I actually doing? Blogging! Aaarrrggghhhh….And for a second I thought I was deliberating on doing this or not, and while at it, I was actually doing it already…hahaha…what a wonderful world. =)

Yeah, I think I know the answer now. I’ll blog when I feel like it. That’s really the whole point isn’t it?
