Pssssst… POGI!

Yes, you. Fellow blogger Jonas earlier gave the heads-up about the AXE Mr. Choco Lovah Photo Contest, and you might be interested. Of course you know AXE… you were at least once enticed into trying out any of its deo-colognes, thanks to its witty ads on media. I used to wear one in college (my [...]

What Can We give?

I joined the rush for Christmas shopping this afternoon, mainly for gifts to give the inaanaks (godchildren) and the kids back home. It used to be such a simple task.

Every Ten Seconds…

… somebody somewhere dies of AIDS. I find this video, entitled Le Sablier (Sand glass), very striking and straightforward in its message.

Stress Relief

… that’s what the family cat gives me. She’s actually just a kitten, about four months old. I found her mewing, frightened and hungry under my bed last summer. The mother must have gone in through an open window. I kept it ajar for a few days hoping she’d be back, but never did. Can [...]

Guess Who’s Next on Ellen’s Show?

After Charice Pempengco, she has expressed interest in having the new Journey vocalist, Arnel Pineda on it. I am thrilled, Ellen is recognizing that there is a huge amount of talent waiting to be tapped here in the Philippines. She isn’t the first to say so, of course. But I don’t mean to be overbearing, [...]
