    A sight for sore eyes

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 02/07/2021

    » Art has been and still is a vital part of our life and history though it has evolved over the years. The Renaissance gave us legendary works of art like Da Vinci's Mona Lisa and Michelangelo's David. Fast forward to the present and we still view art regularly albeit in different forms -- now on a 55in. OLed TV. Hey, Netflix movies and shows are still work of art, don't judge. I understand that there is a vast difference between sitting on your couch and going to a gallery or an exhibition. Guru provides you, dear readers with refreshing breaks like a list of new galleries that are worth your time.

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 07/05/2021

    » It's no mystery that the Covid-19 pandemic has upended the lives of people from all walks of life, all over the world. From children who were looking forward to their first day of school to people in retirement, there's not a single person who hasn't felt the effects of the coronavirus, even if they weren't necessarily infected.

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 09/10/2020

    » Everyone loves a good conspiracy. There's a reason why Netflix has a bunch of them ready for you to binge like Unsolved Mysteries, which will rock you to your core at just how completely plausible they are and how they could easily happen to any of us.

    Free gaming for all

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 02/04/2021

    » Let's be real: a gaming hobby is an expensive hobby. If you're on console, you have to shell out money for the latest games, and you might possibly still be one of the people out there waiting to get your hands on a PS5. If you're part of the PC Master Race, you've probably got a list of things you want to buy to improve your already costly PC on top of having to buy games. So to save your wallet from total annihilation and to actually help you afford real food instead of the Mama noodles you stock up on every week, here are a few games that you can play for free. And please, now that you've actually got some money, eat properly, for goodness sake.

    The year ahead

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 01/01/2021

    » 2021 is finally here and we can finally put "The Year That Must Not Be Named" behind us! Though we're not entirely out of the woods yet, the fact remains that a new year means we can turn a new leaf and look forward to the things yet to come this year. Here is a list of things that are in store for us, which hopefully -- fingers crossed -- may actually take place this year.

    The 2020 Guru awards

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 31/01/2020

    » We know it's the last day of January -- and if you weren't aware, it's February tomorrow -- but as a tweet said, we'll consider January the free-trial period and start 2020 properly on the first day of February. A bunch of stuff has already happened, not all of them good, but before we move ahead and put the past behind us, Guru would like to take one last look at the year that was. "The Guru Awards" have been held for the past two years but so much has happened that we decided it would be best to do a full feature in 2019 instead of just a few paragraphs in the Editor's Note. Seeing that the Academy Awards are also coming up, we couldn't think of a better time to give out our snarky, passive-aggressive accolades. So, ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to welcome you the 2020 Guru Awards -- no monologues, no opening numbers from Neil Patrick Harris. Just pure unadulterated cynicism.

    Behind the mask

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 13/03/2020

    » Coronavirus -- you've been hearing about it, reading about it, but knock on wood you haven't been infected by it. The world has been sent reeling these past few months because of the virus. Everyone is in a state of panic. Masks are in short supply, sneezing in public places garners dirty looks and everyone is convinced they're living in Raccoon City and the Umbrella Corporation is behind it all (get the Resident Evil reference?). But let's all chill for a sec, which may be difficult to do given the circumstances, but we need to get our facts straight which, apparently, is hard for the Thai Ministry of Public Health to do. Let's talk about Covid-19 and how it affects us in Thailand.

    Together at home

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 27/03/2020

    » Staying home, barely going out, staying in your PJs for the majority of the day, taking them off to shower some time in the afternoon only to change into fresh cleaner PJs -- welcome to the new normal. I forgot to mention the part where you work from home but let's be honest, are you really working from home or did you just breeze past one season of a TV show you're now re-watching for the fourth time? Nevertheless, we all seem to be confined to our homes for the foreseeable future. You may be the introvert of introverts but even you may get bored and stir-crazy being stuck in one place for a long time. Here are a number of things to give some levity to your lockdown.

    Reunited and it feels so good

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 01/05/2020

    » Back in E3 2015, Final Fantasy VII Remake was announced and welcomed by all fanboys and fangirls of the original 1997 game all over the world. Almost five years later and after a very, very long and anxious wait, the game finally arrived, defying Covid delays and giving gamers yet another good reason to stay at home. Is it better than the original? Perhaps that's the wrong question to ask because it's an entirely different game, but fans of the original will definitely agree that Remake stays faithful to its equivalent and brings nostalgic fun along with a few new twists.
