I am joining Nick ’s Renewed Boycott Against Manila Standard Today.
Here it is, our stand, because Manila Standard Today has chosen to hide behind their term “protocol” and issue a pardon to their most beloved columnist for all The Filipinos to see. This is a call to boycott, for the irresponsible behavior of Manila [...]

My Type of Guy

I thought I’d go down memory lane and reminisce the days just before I fell in love with my ex-boyfriend (read our love story) .In this day and age, my husband is the so-called brooding artist, emo-ish guy (Think of my daughter, Lauren). I mean he is my total opposite. So why did I [...]
