Yes, The Struggling Blogger is a personal blog.
Of course, you knew that. But guess what, I don’t. Well, at least not until recently.
When I started this blog, I was really hoping that I could ride on the blogging craze of “earning money online,” so I thought it was a blog about online opportunities. But just [...]

Because I said I will bury myself and immersed myself with words, verses and rhetoric, and my blogs seem to be not enough for me for the “burying process,” I had a crazy idea of guest posting in as many blogs as I can, given a specific period of time.
So I asked some of my [...]

I first mentioned about the WordCamp Philippines 2010 when I posted the different blogging events for 2010 that I knew of. I also mentioned how I really would like to attend this event.
Guess what, it almost missed me. Good thing, I followed a post by Jonel Uy which eventually led me to the registration page [...]

At the start of 2009, I made a very bold statement when I included in my goals and plans for the year that I would receive a ‘real world’ blogging award. It was a shot in the dark. I do not know of any blogging awards, but I knew that with a big community such [...]

When I am not spewing rants and gibberish thoughts on my blogs, or when I am not killing anyone in my short stories, waxing some poetic woes, shooting videos, or doing some doodles, I can be found strumming on the guitar, singing my blues away.
And most of the time, what I played on my guitar [...]

“Yadayada! Ole-ole-oleo!“
Doesn’t really make amy sense, does it? Well, because it was really meant NOT to make any sense, and most part of this post, even.
You know that feeling when you have nothing to say? Or you have so much to say, and yet you don’t know how to say it?
It usually happens under two [...]

Have already posted this video before, but it was raw. So I went back to it, still with Vince’s inspiring talk on iBlog6 in mind, and edited it.
It was basically the same video though, I just added a background music to mask the not-too-nice sound that were heard on the background haha!
And this is the [...]

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.”
It’s a seminar on writing… and it’s about Baguio!
For one who loves writing and knows that there’s a lot that he needs to [...]

I appreciate art, in all its medium of expression, especially the ones that I can understand.
I dreamed of becoming an artist when I was young. Unfortunately, I wasn’t blessed with the hand for it. So I am contended in appreciating works done by other artists.
Since I started my photoblog, I make it a point to [...]

Yes! It’s that time of the year again!
iBlog blogging summit will always be memorable to me, as iBlog5 was the first ever blogging event I attended, and I’m really looking forward to attending iBlog6!
With iBlog6 just around the corner, I am really excited, and yes! I have already registered. This year, it would be [...]
