Men Loving Other Men

March 22, 2006 ·

(Author's Note: I have gazillions of published articles and have kept about half of them. I thought this old article was interesting enough to be recopied in this blog, in the light of my recent post on 'Brokeback Mountain' and the subject of sexuality. FYI, this appeared under my byline in the Nov 13, 1999 (!!!) issue of Women's Journal. It's old, all right, but the revelations are ageless. Read for yourself and tell me what you think. Who knows girls, you may never look at your boyfriend/husband in the same way again) The stereotype gay is the kind often depicted ... Continue Reading...

It’s summer! Time to be a beach bum

March 21, 2006 ·

I promised to myself that my buffet lunch at Market Cafe yesterday is going to be my last, at least until the season is over.I've finally noticed my posts for the past few days and it's all about f-o-o-d, which will not help me any as this is the time for baring,frolicking and worshipping the sun.

I can never duplicate what my friend Mai did who had a boob job and tummy tuck in ... Continue Reading...

I consider Eileen one of my 'bestest' friends but unfortunately I only get to see her every few years since she's now based in the US with her good-looking pilot husband. So when she flew into town, she gave me the nicest compliment: "A, you've never looked so good. What's your secret?" To which I replied: " You've never aged yourself. I hope I can still look as good as you when am already 44!" ... Continue Reading...

A buffet eating nation?

March 18, 2006 ·

New World buffet Originally uploaded by annalyn. I've tried almost all of the hotel buffets in Metro Manila and I was glad I finally got to sample the one at New World (now Renaissance Makati City Hotel) over a business meeting last week. Renaissance is a five-star hotel strategically located in front of the swanky Greenbelt Mall. It has also established quite a reputation with me as the hotel with "the most paranoid security check" this side of the city. But that's another story. ... Continue Reading...
