Watch the author literally have the worst time of his life. Can you even see me in this picture This must be Gibbs Cadiz and Karla Maquiling's idea (of Pinoy Centric ) of a joke. What started out as an invitation for one lazy afternoon at the theater rapidly evolved into an impromptu mini-workshop that nobody anticipated.

2007-08-22 02:51 Electrolychee: Harmonizing Chaos
If there s something that Electrolychee does best, it s melding Pinoy pop culture and art without being artsy-fartsy about it. (Hover on the photos for captions) What Electrolychee does is simply art that sells, art that isn t high brow. Art that every Juan (or Juana) can relate to. Which is probably why the duo thrives. Read about them on Pinoy Centric .

2007-08-16 05:56 Of false imaginings.
The "misrepresentation" controversy (I'm not linking, I'm sure you know how to do your research) making its rounds in certain blogging circles belies dangerous and false notions that many Filipinos seem to have about blogging. 1. "Pinoy blogosphere" - This concept is problematic but to explore this question, we need to discuss a little social science. Discussion regarding the nature of a nation tend to get tricky. In most social science classes, however, we go by the formulation "groups of peopl …

2007-07-05 11:57 Taste Asia Food Fest! (2 of 2)
I promised Sasha I'll post their photos here. So, here ya go, Sasha! Let me tell you how I know these people... Jayvee Fernandez I've been reading his articles on m-ph since way back. (I didn't bother coming up to him since he was very busy at the event.) The first time I saw him was at the mobile expo in Greenbelt 1 some 2 or 3 years back as he was also a core member of MaPalad. I still recall asking him where I can have my Sony CLI fixed (but now I can't remember what he said =P). The second …

2007-05-07 06:50 Igorot Foot Massage
LAST APRIL 23, I attended the Launch of the First National Weaving Congress in Mt. Data Hotel, Bauko, Mountain Province. We were treated to a cultural presentation.
