REFLECTION Book Launching-apprehensions and gratitude

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 [...]

Today, I swear I’m not doing anything

Because it’s my birthday! That is why today, I’m gonna lay back… stretch my feet, maybe raise them up on the couch… I believe, I deserve this. Got too much on my plate as of late, and believe me, the toll it’s taken on my sanity… or whatever left of it, is unimaginable! So now, [...]

Has Friendster given up? This is the impression I got when I received my copy of the email from the social network. It says they are deleting most of the data that were uploaded on the site during the pre-Facebook era – photos, blogs, etc. Friendster would only be leaving basic profile information, which I [...]

What can I expect from Globe’s 4G Mobile Technology?

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, [...]

I need a “launch” break

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 [...]

iBlog7: Writer’s block

Wikipedia defines writer’s block as “a condition, associated with writing as a profession, in which an author loses the ability to produce new work.” But this definition limits the definition to those who are writers by profession, and we, bloggers, are “writers by passion” and there are some, especially the “real” writers who do not [...]

iBlog7: I CAN DO THIS!

Bailing out is not an option! I have to face this. I volunteered for it and nobody, and I mean NOBODY! – forced me to do it. Well, almost nobody, except for that stupid voice inside my head who’s been pushing me since last year, to do things that aren’t really within my comfort zone… [...]
