FICTION
COYOTE ---  This doesn't actually have a title.  I'm really not sure at all where I got the inspiration for this story, but... uh, here it is.  The execution didn't come out quite as long as I would have liked -- it was a school assignment and had a deadline -- but I figured the idea alone would be interesting enough.  Take a look.
THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF JACK --- Chapter 3 of Controversial Jack and the End of Western Civilization, an Improfanfic.
GLORIA IN EXCELSIS --- This is a short story I did for creative writing in third year. An ordinary Catholic schoolgirl is roused from sleep one night to find the Archangel Gabriel in her room, saying that she's "blest among women". A divine comedy, no pun intended. More angels than you can shake a flaming sword at. 
POETRY
THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS --- I wrote this at around the same time as "Gloria in Excelsis".
THE BAT --- I wrote this in grade school, I think.  Back when I could still write poems.
ESSAYS
REQUIEM --- For as long as I can remember, my family and I would visit my grandmother in her house every summer.  Last year, she had to move, and her house was sold.  I never knew who bought it, but with the house went a huge piece of my childhood. 
THE ESSAY ---  My college application essay for Ateneo de Manila University.  My first several drafts were all incredibly dull, and my mom told me that I had better inject some of my token weirdness in it if I was going to get any notice from the admissions board.  So this is what I came up with.  I was accepted, by the way. 
LOOK HOMEWARD, AGENT MULDER --- A short, short essay I did for creative writing, about aliens in our midst.
