‘We are what we think we are’
I found refreshing this Editorial from Pasa'Yo, a newspaper which will be distributed for free in major commuter routes in Metro Manila starting this month. It is a private sector initiative to spread the good news about the country for a change. The proponents believe that we've had enough of the bad news and sensational stories; all that bitching, blaming and criticizing will only have the effect of further pulling ourselves down. Being a nationalistic chick, I believe that there's no better time in our history to be pro-Philippines and to hope that we can rise like ... Continue Reading...
The Boyfriend’s Arm…. Pillow!

He could have chosen to live on their mansion but as his friends would say, Jose ... Continue Reading...

It is so nice to be writing this blog from Boracay and being able to announce to my readership that I am now enjoying the good life in this little piece of island paradise south of the Philippines.And so....the definitive statement is: am a Bora virgin... no more! Though I have seen the nudist beaches of Europe and grew up in a house by the sea in my hometown which is now also known as a sought-after diving destination in the Philippines, Boracay is still a dream come true for me. Heaven is when the blue sky meets the green sea amid a fascinating backdrop of sailboats ... Continue Reading...
