I’m renewing my driver’s license today and you know what, this has a terrible health implication on my part. Not only will I not be able to blog till 5pm today but anticipating the stress I can derive from falling in a long line standing up (of course!) is already killing me. In […]

I was scanning my wife’s notes and going through other stuff when an old note that is “A Nurse’s Prayer” caught my attention.

My new site (The Reporter) is PR7. Isn’t that wonderful? Thank you Google for making this possible. Also I’d like to thank the board of judges, members of the league of tricycle drivers & operators in Laoag City and my two deceased parents for all the support.

June is my birth month and I’m a Gemini. An extreme. It is this time of the year when my pockets and bank accounts are all in danger. I have so many friends who greet and come by the house to pay me a visit.

Finally, my internet connection is healthy and stable after a month of calling Digitel Hotline 175 in Laoag City. The line has been made stable about an hour ago after having problems with it for almost a month. I have written about this in the past claiming that my DSL internet connection sucks.

If you are living in the Philippines or at least have lived here for quite a while, then you might be familiar with ISP’s here serving broadband connections like Digitel and PLDT. Lately, there seems to be an outage in many areas of the country which is driving DSL subscribers nuts.
