Why am I not writing? For sure it’s not writer’s block. There are number of reasons why I am not updating my blogs, but writer’s block is definitely not one of them. You see I’m having too much on my mind right now and I have actually thought of writing about them in my blogs [...]

My cousin recently landed in Los Angeles, it was her first time there. And lucky for her, of all places in the world to be in, she has to go to a place where we do not have any relatives at all. But fortunately, I have friends from my high school days who migrated there [...]

I’ve been attending iBlog since I first heard of it in 2009. That was iBlog5 now that it’s already on its 8th year, I will definitely attend it again. It will be my fourth iBlog. Last year, I was one of the speakers for iBlog7 and I had a blast. It was quite an experience [...]

This is a rather late post for the iBlog8, actually. Because I was really “pre-occupied” these past few days, I was not able to respond when Janette made a call for speakers and topics for iBlog8 last month. I was able to participate as one of the speakers in iBlog7 where I delivered a talk [...]

Actually, it is a matter of personal preference, but whatever the choice of flooring may be, the beauty of it [...]

What a year 2011 was!

Oh yes! What a year 2011 was indeed! In 2010, I started to step an inch away from my comfort zone, and I honestly didn’t think that 2011 would get me even farther from it. For starters, I was able to stand in front of people, yay! Bloggers, even. In April, I delivered a talk [...]
