“What you talkin’ to, Willis?”
Those were the words I always rememberd when I was still young and watching Diff’rent Strokes on TV. I can say that it was in fact Gary Coleman, a.k.a Arnold, who was my first great influence on one-liners and smart-alecky quips.

I saw on today’s Travel and Tourism section of the Philippine Star newspaper. The first thing that caught my attention were the words “380-words story writing contest.”
With the intention of joining, I went on to read the rest of the article… only to find out that it is not for me.

I wish I could attend this writing seminar.
I saw it on the lifestyle section of the Philippine Daily Inquirer and got curious on the title of the article – “Baguio Travel Writing Workshop.”

While we were busy singing the night away last January 9 at the Alfredo’s resort, to celebrate Zorlone’s despedida and the day my Angel turns 12, this blog has turned one year older.
