Let’s Plurk and Have Fun

Jun 29, 08 Let’s Plurk and Have Fun

Posted by in Blogging, Online Culture

My husband peered over my macbook just before he called it a night. Are you plunking, dear? I wanted to chuckle but I didn’t want to offend him. No dear, I’m plurking. He didn’t seem to notice that plurking is not the same as plunking. Maybe he meant spelunking? tee-hee. For some of you, you might ask, What is...

Problems are Made to Be Solved

Problems are inevitable. Some problems can be anticipated. Some are surprises. The idea that problems occur now and then need not be a surprise.

Posted by in Current Affairs

It was 5:00 AM when Lauren knocked on our room . The loud noise outside her window woke her up almost the same time as the brownout hit our home. “Don’t worry the MERALCO wires have a ground wire now” I told her to sleep with us if she was still scared with the noise.

Tenor Radio Frequency, RevaleSkin and Other Beauty Secrets

Blogging made me vain. Not directly though. With a blog that focused on an advocacy, it caught the fancy of a few TV shows and magazines. Before I emerged out of my 5 year recluse, I avoided cameras and people like a plague. I didn’t like how I looked. When I saw myself for the first time on TV, I was appalled to see myself...
