The Tale of the Charity Queen Who Almost Lost Her Crown

Having less than a month to prepare for a city-wide charity event such as the Alay Lakad should have given me enough fodder to blog about. But to whimper and whine was not my cup of tea, at least for the time being — as working with the execom (the real one, which did most [...]

Narcissistic Tendencies

… actually, just having fun jazzing up my personal pictures with photofunia. I got the idea from cercus at Multiply.

Something Odd About The Cat

I discovered a strange behavior of the family pet last night. Earlier, I have observed that she prefers to sleep on top of a couple of unused yarn dusters, instead of the soft and warm nook we wanted him to settle in. So I thought maybe it’s just because it looks and feels like fur.
But [...]

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 [...]

Best Days

Mahal ang bigas. Mahal ang gasolina. I still can’t get over the shock, the horror and the anger about the previous week’s tragedy at sea. Some issues at work remain unresolved…

Let Ag-ap Play in the PBA

Let’s Play Tag

 

I’ve been tagged by Chuck, and before I run out of bloggies to pass it to, I better do this STAT. I’ve got a few more pending. There’s one that I had promised to do by Independence Day, but other things got in the way. And then I only noticed recently (through my Incoming Links [...]

Say Aaaaaahhhhh…..

Does it only happen to me, but it seems that when I look desperately for things, I can’t find them… only to recover them when I’m looking for something else, or nothing at all? I was deleting clutter on this computer and found stashed on drive D this article I thought I had lost [...]
