Hello! Hello!

(eastwood city circa 2005)

Hello! You can forget about my real name, just call me Tenchu. There's really nothing deep behind the pseudonym, it just sounds funny that's why I like it. It's just like saying "tenchu" instead of "thank you". Filipinos, huh? I know.

I'm a 20-something guy from Manila. A designer and a slob both at the same time. I often dream of being successful and well-known (being famous and all that) but I'm not sure where I'm headed at the moment.

I'm a former youth leader from a huge Christian church. I left that church a year ago to run away from all the lies and to find myself.

I've kept and maintained several blogs (photoblogs and journals) over the past 5 years (more or less). Now as I am about to deal with quarter life crisis, my blogs had to deal with their own crises too (identity that is). And I think I'm just about ready to put another phase of my life into writing...and taking pictures.

Hopefully, I succeed in transforming this li'l site into a photoblog of some sorts, focusing on my new found hobby/past time/recreational activity (whatever you call it) which is smoking.

Uhuh, you read that right.

Tried jumping on the bandwagon and voila! I'm a smoker. Plain stupid, I know, I'd be the first to admit that. It ain't supposed to be cool. But sometimes, honestly, I feel like it is, like you belong or something. Shit.

Anyhow, i see a lot peeps writing about being utterly queer to the grave, fashionably gay, or living a balanced gay life. But never a queer guy smoking. Pathetic, eh? Well it's for me to know and for you to find out.
