I’d Like to Thank The Academy…
Oh my. Someone nominated this humble blog in the Asia Blog Awards for …eep… best journal/diary category.
Whoever you are, thank you for thinking that this blog deserves the recognition. Ok na sa akin yung nomination. Ika nga, it’s an honor being nominated. Pwera etching. I’m just happy people drop by to read my drivel. So thank you, Dear Reader, for your continued patronage. :)

It’s not drivel…well not most of it. Hahaha! I’ve spent the better part of the last two days reading your so-called drivel whilst on company time…
I’m glad that there are folks who think our government is abusive and corrupt. I’m glad I’m away from there, honestly! And I don’t envy my Lola and my Tito’s who are still striving to make a living there. But I also miss home terribly…no matter how long I’ve been in the US (going on 13 years now) or how ingrained I become in this American culture, I will always long for my homeland…corrupt and dirty as it may be, but home nonetheless!
Reading your posts and other folks’ comments on here makes me feel that maybe there is hope yet. Another EDSA? I don’t know…maybe…but something needs to happen.
One question though…what’s the middle class doing about the upcoming election? I hope they won’t just sit back and be ridden roughshod by FPJ and the like…I know there are STILL some Filipino’s who won’t take that bribe to vote…I am sure there are…or are there??
