Sayaw sa Bubog

Break muna ako sa pagsusulat sa wikang Ingles, para sa post na ito, mas pinili kong sumulat ng Tag-lish (Tagalog at English) dahil sa tingin ko ay mas maipapahayag ko ang mensahe ng blog post sa ganitong paraan.
Dalawampu’t Apat na taon na ang nakaraan nang maganap ang EDSA Revolution, araw ng pagdiriwang, araw ng paglaya [...]

Is the Liberal Party being singled out?

First it was Gov. Grace Padaca, then Gov. Jon-jon Mendoza, now it’s Gov. Ed Panlilio. What do they have in common? They are all Liberal party members and yes they all lost the electoral protest their opponents filed against them.
In December 8, 2009, the COMELEC Second Division ruled in favor of the election [...]

Triple 9

I always ask myself whenever this triple number date thing comes, what’s with these dates (numbers) that makes people act crazy? Last year every couple would want to get married on August 8, 2008, most of the believes that the number 8-8-8 would bring good luck to their union, in fact I was able [...]

Last week was a week of announcement and pronouncements, Jesus is Lord Church founder and leader Eddie Villanueva announced that he will (again) seek the highest position of the land. Earlier, during his birthday, El Shaddai leader Brother Mike Velarde ‘joke’ about his intention of running for president.
