English was my first language.
As a toddler, my first study materials were a set of flash cards that my mother used to teach me the English alphabet. All my storybooks and coloring books were in English. The cartoons I watched, and the music I listened to, were all in English. My mother required…

Let me write down my candid thoughts on this overblown fit on “blogging with integrity” (which is, by the way, not important enough for the people of Maguindanao to empathize with, considering the bigger problems that they have):
I frame the discussion this way: the whole fit comes with the…

vivatregina:
She’s in the hospital because of a pillbox that exploded too close to her—which shouldn’t have even happened at all, because it was supposed to be a happy day. They’ve amputated both her legs. She can’t talk because of the tubes in her mouth, but she has the courage to write on a sheet of paper… I still want to be a lawyer someday.

As you are reading this letter, I bet that you have seen/heard about what happened earlier in our country.
Tourists were hostages of a policeman here, Rolando Mendoza. After a few hours of the horrible crime, some of the victims were dead including the hostage-taker.
I wrote this letter not just to apologize but also to let everyone know that we Filipinos are not all like...

Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house.
But a man who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys himself.

Oh would you look at that! I just relaunched this Tumblr site the other day and look who just spent 1 hour and 38 minutes… C’mon, I know you know the answer… he even promoted this page on his Facebook wall and threatened me not to overstep the mark! But look who’s talking (click).

This is so LOL. LMAO. Well, think of the hits, Jepoy, think of the hits!
