A break from politics and natural disasters.
****************************
On January 8, 1974, hoping for a fresh start, the King of Rock and Roll finalized his divorce papers with Pricilla Presley on his 39th birthday.  At the same moment (but in a different time-zone) on the other side of the planet, tens (or maybe hundreds) of thousands of Filipinos gathered to commemorate another type of King, the Christ.  And as the crowd marched around the streets of Quiapo in praise of the town’s patron saint, Jesus of Nazareth, a new hope was born.  A humble and loving mother from Tondo gave …

Mr. Nonsense can often be seen in the Tacoma-Seattle area carrying a camcorder, accompanied by his two sons and his personal chauffeur, his wife. He uses his Tondo upbringing to nurture his children and to survive in a mental institution—>where he currently works.
He enjoys basketball, cooking, singing, cartooning, producing short movies, and making his own furniture out of junked wood… because he’s so cheap. He is a self-proclaimed “Man of the House,”…when his wife is not home.

Ito ang kwento ng buhay ko. Kulot ako noong bata at kulot pa rin ako ngayon. Hindi yung tipo ng kulot na parang kurdon ng telepono, kundi ang pamosong itinatawag sa akin ni Bluepanjeet na kinky. Ito ang pinagmulan ng lahat ng kamalasan sa buhay ko. Noong ako ay ipinanganak, naka-tira ang Nanay at Tatay ko sa Roxas District sa Maynila. Nag-titinda ng insurance ang Nanay ko at trabahante naman ng National Bookstore ang Tatay. Masipag maglinis ng bahay ang Tatay ko dahil nga naman nakikisama sila sa aming Lolo …

Ako po yan. Nakasilip sa dyalusi. (Tinanggal ko na po ang dyalusis! ~Reynz!) Shy dahil bigatin ang mga tiga-Barrio Siete. I’ve been reading Reyna’s blog for about 2 5 months now…. sorry kung late… huli man daw at magaling eh huli pa rin .
I got to know about Reynz blog from Dona Victorina. Hindi dahil palagi kong binabasa yun kundi dahil sinundan ko ang topic about the MLQ3 lambasting the intelligence of some readers about the article written by someone named Chip Tsao from Hongkong hanggang sa mag apologise …

Isang karangalan sa akin ang ipakilala ang ating ka-barrio na ito. Isa siya sa masusugid na reader ng Reyna Elena at Barrio Siete, pati na rin ang iba pang blogs ng ating mga ka-barrio. Problema nga lang, hindi na niya ma-access ang iba dahil alam nyo naman ang bansa na kanyang kinalulugaran.
Nonetheless, napakasayang kasama ng taong ito. She will never fail to make you laugh sa mga comments at napakagandang one-liners na binibitawan nya. Ngalay na ang panga natin sa katatawa pero siya di pa rin natigil sa …

The question of identity is one of the perennial issues in the history of philosophy. According to Plato, what I am is essentially an immaterial soul. Locke on the other hand, maintains that a person is defined by her self-reflective consciousness consists of a substance (body and soul) and relational memory. If we follow the biological criterion, I am is simply a living organism, a human animal the essence of which is being rational…

Nang mabasa ko po ang liham ni Kapitana, wala akong nagawa kundi ilista ang kayang request …

Hello mga friends.
Call me Mel and I am writing this article dahil pinilit ako ni La Kapitana. Hahaha!
Sabi niya, ikuwento ko naman daw ang aking buhay sa inyo mga minamahal na tagasubaybay ng Barrio Siete at nawa’y kapulutan ninyo ng aral at tips sa pagiging maganda ang kuwento ng inyong lingkod.
Sa totoo lang, pressure ito. Kasi naman medyo hindi inspiring ang aking buhay. Wala pa akong narating sa buhay. I’m still struggling to make ends meet on a daily basis. Medyo pasaway pa. Baka magsisi pa kayo at binasa niyo …

ALL ABOUT SNOW
Ako po si Snow, pinanganak sa Pasig City at nagkamalay sa isang lugar sa Taguig City. Panganay po akong anak sa apat na magkakapatid na puro babae. Isang OFW ang aking ama at isang early-retired na Sekretarya na mas piniling mag-alaga ng kaniyang mga paslit ang aking ina. Lumaki po ako sa isang konserbatibong pamilya na istrikto pagdating sa pag-aaral at praktical ang pananaw sa buhay.

Dahil sa una akong naging teenager sa mga kapatid ko, naging ‘guinea pig’ po ako ng aking mga parents sa kaistriktuhan to …

Pag nagbabagyo, nakikituloy kami sa bahay ng aming tiyohin sa dahilang ang bahay kubo namin ay hindi matibay. Nagiba ng bagyo ang una naming bahay . When I was two years old, pangalawang bahay namin ay muntik ng nasunog . Thanks to me at ako daw ang nakapansin. Mahirap lang kami – taxi driver ang ama ko at pito kaming magkakapatid.

Gloria is the original Daragang Magayon (http://daragang-magayon.com) in the Pinoy Blogosphere. She grew up in a small barrio in Sorsogon where everyone originated from one family with 12 kids.

She grew up eating every green leaves available cooked in coconut milk with chili, guisadong bagoong alamang and fried tinapa (smoked …

He is a proud Mangyan who hails from Oriental Mindoro. Born a menopause baby, he is the youngest among the twelve. His exact birthplace? A place called pugadbaboy in the outskirts of the Naujan Lake. And that ain’t fiction.
His parents were “peryantes” and therefore he was raised in an environment where constant hustling is the name of the game. As early as five, he already was making money out of running his own table of beto-beto. At that age, patrons find him cute and small that they thought they could …
