This is what I was afraid of – to accomplish what I wish to accomplish… and then, become bored. I was able to conquer my stage fright and talked about writer’s block in iBlog7, I was finally able to publish my poetry book, and I even had a grand book launching to boot. Now, I’m [...]

It used to be just but a dream… a wishful thinking… something that I never really thought would happen… not by a long-shot! But fate knows better. And what was but a dream became real… and I was able to see it… to be it. I was able to live my dream. I had my [...]

My apologies to my smoking friends. Doesn’t it pissed you off that you even have to apologize to them? Unfortunately, that seems to be the rule – smokers have more rights than non-smokers. That is why I am thankful with the new NO SMOKING campaign that the government implemented starting last Monday, May 30. I [...]

With just a week away from the book launching, I really do not know what to do right now. What to feel, how to act, how to prepare… I don’t know anything! Right now, everything seems vague, all of a sudden. This feeling is quite similar to what I was feeling days before my iBlog7 [...]

I am not really a techie, that is why the news about Globe launching its 4G mobile technology did not really excite me at first as much as it would a techie. But being a blogger, I am still curious as to what this buzz about the new Globe technology is all about. As expected, [...]

Lately, I have been dreaming and doing things which are quite out of my “comfort zone” that I sometimes scare myself whenever I paused and think. Last year, thinking of what to do for my birthday, a strange force “enveloped” me and I recorded a video of myself singing and uploaded it on YouTube! (and [...]

To launch or not to launch? That is the question. Obviously, my choice definitely is TO launch. However, it is not that easy, really. Or is it? Okay, so I dreamed. I worked. I nurtured the dream, and now it is a reality. The book, REFLECTION, is real, even though I had to pinch myself [...]

Is it a coincidence that my book is called REFLECTION and their name starts with Light and Crystal? I am referring to my publisher…. my dream partner – the Light and Crystal Publishing House or simply LCPH.

They say, one good way to cure an addiction is via new addiction – and Facebook did just that! Facebook was able to accomplished what Friendster, Hi5, Multiply, TAGGED, Plurk and Twitter was not able to accomplish – to take me away from blogging… AND HOW! Not surprising really because FB was such an active [...]
