image by artifex 5:45 PM. 15 minutes before calling it a day at the office. And of course, 15 minutes before relaxing at the couch having the monopoly of the TV’s remote control. But as we were preparing yesterday our things to head for the exit door and painted on our face are nothing but smiles after the [...]

image from farm1 @ flickr Don’t worry, my title post is actually right. “Don’t vote on 2010…”, but if i may continue, all those f**king congressmen who railroaded the amendment of the constitution by filing a bill to convene a constitutional assembly without recognizing the Senate as a separate voting entity, while everyone was still fixed [...]

Milosevic has been judged and now dead. And so is Pol Pot, Hitler and all those faces of death and torture of the 20th century. But there are still many others on the loose, enjoying their retirements on their ranch, and posh abodes; walking past camera men with glee and pride; powerful and renowned who [...]

If there is anyone out [...]

I have been out of the blogsphere for more or less two weeks. And those two weeks were really very excruciating, full of tension and tiring. Here are some facts that had happened to me on those weeks that I forcibly shut down the blogging side of me. 1. I presented my thesis proposal [...]

I think the policemen who blocked, stopped and intimidated us should not be the only people to blame about the incident on which our basic right to freely assemble and travel without any harassment were infringed. On one instance in the encounter in Molino Road where we were stopped for almost an hour, one young police [...]

Been so busy lately. Sometimes I don’t even know where or how to start so that everything will be accomplished. In short, I am losing my focus. Just get so overwhelmed with so many tasks both at work and in school. My requirement in the graduate school to submit a thesis proposal puts [...]

The usual. The day ended yesterday here at DLSU-D with the exodus of green and white rushing towards Gate 1 with some being cautious of the occasional falling from the heaven of snakes, eerie and hairy caterpillars that would make someone’s face swell to unrecognizable proportion, and some other what-do-you-call-that-whatever species joining the band.
