100 Araw
Jan 29th
I’ll be a commentary writer for 100Araw.com–a collaborative project to enlighten the Filipino voting population about everything they should know about the upcoming elections. The articles that would be written here are beyond the superficial level but still strive to be understood by all Filipino people across classes and political benches. Here’s the welcome entry by Tonyo Cruz for more information about 100Araw.com. Congratulations, Kuya Tonyo!
2010 Fireworks
Jan 2nd
“Living BESIDE Ayala Alabang has its perks. You can see their matapobre fireworks every new year that’ll make your poor kwitis disappear. Happy 2010!” This is my Facebook status message last New Year’s Eve that was liked by at least 20 people. Living in our village is actually a free pass to a fireworks exhibition the rich kids have organized themselves. So what does a spectator like me needs to do? I got a digital camera and soon realized that it has a fireworks mode option. And these happened next.
A Romantic Agenda
Dec 27th
After some sort of celebration, I already need to face my school chores. Well, that’s a need I refuse to fulfill simply because I’m not in the mood–and my mind and body haven’t achieved a state of enlightenment just yet. But for now, I’m a happy bum. Actually, I’m waiting for my 2010 planner because it will start a spark of gusto and will kick my ass towards my unused study desk. I thought Red Moleskine’s coming to me, but I changed my mind–I’ll settle for the mass-adored Starbucks Planner. Four stickers before possession; not bad. Okay, I did break my words about this thing. But who cares?
The End Is Near
Dec 24th
After some good telephone conversation, I coerced myself to sleep. I got my pillow, dressed my cold body with some Christmas-weather-proof blanket and started formulating my sweet dreams. Apparently, during my sleep’s Rapid Eye Movement stage, I can still hear the telephone conversation I just had before raping my sleeping bed. I thought it was a not-so-good dream so I decided to wake up and ponder in silence–hoping to spell a better sleeping trick. Well, I think I can’t and, voila, I decided to blog.
