A friend named Goddy

Just got back from Manila where I spent a very quiet holy week with my family. And as you may have noticed, I also took a short hiatus from Pinkoy since I decided to sort of abstain (even for just a little while) from updating this blog as my way of observing the lenten season (Oh, the suffering from not seeing that kitty up there...not even a peek!).

So when I finally came back, lo and behold...I got an Easter surprise from Goddy. But before I do the work required by the Neno Award, let me at least talk about this friend of mine named Goddy.

Unlinking from my other sites

Wow, it has been ages since I last posted here something that actually came out of my currently cluttered brain. I hope you don't mind but I have removed my pin(k)oy links in my radio and news blogs while still retaining my link to TTRO in this site. Finally...Whew!

You probably are wondering why that sigh of relief. You see, after so many nosebleeds resulting from my many attempts at writing a good original post (and ultimately failing at the end of the day), I realized that my hesitation comes from the fact that this site is linked to my work-related blogs.

Bloggin' Qs Answered

A couple of days ago, I posted several questions about blogging that have been bothering me (and giving me sleepless nights, OA!). Thanks to some newfound blogger friends, they have actually been answered. So, since this blog is in this phase where it is still groping for its own identity, I figure I'd post their comments/answers to my bloggin' Qs.

I Want To But I'd Rather Not

It has been a while since I updated this blog. Ok, I'll admit now - I actually don't have any idea what to write here lately because of my work at the radio station. So, it's not a surprise if, for the past few days since my last entry here, I had already updated my radio blog (twice even) and not even written a single line here until now.

Bloggin' Q's bothering me...

Could someone please explain this to me.

I thought bloggers have figured it out. But in some of the sites I have visited, I found out that there are authors who are actually critical about bloggers and blogging. This, I really couldn't understand since they are bloggers themselves. Thus, these questions in my mind...

Bloggin' Crazy

My life has gone bloggin' crazy!

As if I wasn't busy enough with managing a radio station and the needs of my family, I could say I am punishing myself with more work.

For years I remained a lurker of the triple W. I just log in to check on my emails, do research and chat once in a while. Having friends who started blogging ironically after leaving our agency to look for greener pastures abroad, I then visited some of their now massively-earning sites and wondered...how the hell did they do that?!

From Tagalog to English

I was a bit overwhelmed with requests of actually translating my Tagalog posts to English. I did add a translator on this blog. But when my friend Tintin and I tried it out for ourselves, we ended up laughing our asses off because the translations were really hilarious!

That Kitty is Getting Popular

I just got a very nice email from Dame Wotta Tripp who maintains www.icebringer.com. It was not the first time I got a compliment from visitors here (who are but a handful for now), but jeez, that cat is really getting a lot of attention! So now, for the benefit of non-Filipino readers who visit my site, here's my story about that kitty up there.

Stray cats are a common thing in a lot of communities here in the Philippines. In our neighborhood, we have around four of them hanging out on our front porch. They are a very useful bunch really, especially in keeping out those ROUSes (rodents of unusual size).

Pin(k)oy ako

Hay salamat at, for a change naman, may isa pa akong blog na maaari ko nang magamit ang sarili kong wika. Actually, spin-off ito mula kabila kong blog na work-related. Pero, naisip ko, masyado na ata akong nalilimita at hindi lang naman yun ang mundo ko. Meron pa naman akong ibang buhay. Thus, this new blog.

Niwei, naisip ko na gawing title ng blog ko itong net name ko. Maraming nagtataka (at matagal na rin silang nagtataka) kung saan ko nakuha ito.
