Rainy Days

Oh, hello!

Rainy Days are here again. I am stuck at home and since I have nothing urgent to do, I find myself revisiting my blogs and wonder what really happened? Why did I stop blogging regularly?


To be fair, most of my contemporaries in personal blogging are no longer active. The very few ones either treat it now as a business or they simply want to document their lives the old school way (don’t fellow sentimental fools feel the same way?). I aspire to do a mix of both, but I guess the self-inflicted pressure caused me to do nothing at all.

Just like in what I revealed in my supposed ‘comeback post‘ on my other blog, I wasn’t completely unproductive. I am now writing for TV in almost a daily basis and I also do morning pages. Since those two are main priorities now for to make a living and to organize my thoughts / emotions, blogging took a backseat. I had a lot of plans and I am once again stressing myself out if I should still write about the other things I’m passionate about, trips I took and so on. I am even thinking of starting a new blogging project but I dunno.

2011 Conference on IT Concepts: A Slice of the Web Today (Lyceum-Northwestern University)

I am packing my stuff for tomorrow! I’ll be returning to Dagupan City and this time, I am tagging some blogger friends with me for a seminar at my beloved alma mater, Lyceum-Northwestern University.

I’ve been invited as a speaker to several blogging events and most of the time, I am sharing my own insights on Basics of Blogging (Blogging 101) and Personal Blogging. Usually, I’d meet aspiring bloggers after each talk and i’d see them work on their own platforms a month after. The Philippine Blogging Community is indeed growing.

Why I Will Never Forget 2009

Wow. It’s 2010 already? I can’t believe that I am now trying my very best to write a blog entry about 2009. I remember writing my 2008 Year Ender post the other year with some disappointments related to my career (Being jobless at Christmas Day gives you a week of weakness, I swear!). I thought it’s the end of the world for me (uhm, not really. I’m a fighter, baby!). I am happy to inform you though that I started 2009 with much enthusiasm and ended it with a big smile on my face.

January 2009 - Kuya Bunso Cast and Crew

January 2009 - Kuya Bunso Cast and Crew

It was in January where I finally decided to push through with my passion in film making. With the script I worked on during my stay at Sinelab, I managed to talk to some of my blogger friends to help me out with my first film entitled Kuya Bunso. With Jehzeel and Cai and the rest of the Nyoks, I did push through with my first film in a limited budget. I really can’t believe I was able to write, produce and direct the film. I wanted to join a short film festival that time, but I didn’t anticipate the fact that post-production is the most expensive and time-consuming part. My 24 minute debut film made me cry when i first saw it. I mean, yeah. I really cried T_T. I owned a new phone too and took a lot of camwhore pics with the nyoks. I bought a lot of domains that month which proved that i am an impulsive domain buyer lolz 😛
