Empress Maruja, ang Usisera ng Aliwan Fiesta 2007
UPDATED, mga bakla!
Aliw na aliw ang lola niyo kagabi dahil sa wakas ay natupad na ang kanyang pangarap na makajonta sa Aliwan Fiesta. Tinaguriang “Festival of all festivals,” ang Aliwan Fiesta ay isang malaking gathering ng mga pista mula sa lahat ng sulok ng Pilipinas.
Ang mega-highlight ditech ay ang street dance competition ng mga festivals na kasali. Day, ngayong taon 26 na festivals (yata) ang nakadalo, ang iba pa nga’y nanggaling pa sa kasuluk-sulukan ng Shariff Kabunsuan (bagong province ‘yan, along with the Dinagat Islands).
Nag-beg off si Svelte na sumama sa akin dahil sa kanyang mga appointments churvey, pero aketch talaga kailangan makadalo by hook or by hook.
Speech of A UP Diliman Genius
Take (Not) The Road Less Traveled
Speech of Mikaela Irene Fudolig, 16 years old, on April 22, 2007 during UP Graduation Ceremonies. She graduated Summa cum laude, BS Physics at UP Diliman.
“… Take NOT the road less traveled. Rather, MAKE new roads, BLAZE new trails, FIND new routes to your dreams. Unlike the track-beaters in campus who see where they’re going, we may not know how far we can go. But if we are brave, defiant searchers of excellence, we will go far. Explore possibilities, that others may get a similar chance. I have
tried it myself. And I’m speaking to you now.”

Pinoy Web 2.0: 0-100
By my estimate there are around 6000-7000 pinoy blogs out there. Out of this only around 20 percent are active. And out of the active blogs, around 20 percent receive substantial traffic.
Filipinos’ View of Adopted Kids/People
I was channel surfing earlier today when I stumbled upon the ever familiar “The BUZZ” (with Ruffa Guttierez-Bektas, Kristy Fermin and Boy Abunda) on ABS-CBN channel. My sister, upon seeing the gossip talk show, asked me to drop the remote and stop pushing the buttons for a while. I obliged since I wasn’t interested to any particular shows that were being aired. While watching the show’s cast dishing out the headlines, I was intrigued by one of their headline stories. They were insinuating that a “well known star” was an ampon ( adopted) and claimed to have the legitimate birth certificate of the “star”.
