A bloggers Favorite Blog

The first blog I read or at least the first one that leaves a mark on me  is an online journal from an improv site.  I clearly remember what that blog is all about: PORN

Its not about doing porn movies or best link to porn site. Its about a woman's account working in a porn video rental shop. It was recommended by a friend and once I started reading I couldn't stop.

Title of the blog is True Porn Clerk Stories by Ali Davis. Her account is funny and for a while it makes me wanna take on odd jobs. Her blog is so good that it got viral she also  got the attention of local radio stations.

When I googled it just a few hours ago I read that it was already taken down.. sorry no free reading.

UPDATE: True Porn Clerk Stories is no longer available on this site. We were proud to host this journal for the last seven years, but now it's available at Amazon.com on the Kindle and the paperback edition can be bought at createspace.com.

 Too bad.. oh well I hope I can find more interesting online journals and blogs to read in the coming years.

When things get emotional....

I write
Sometimes I listen to music or walk to lighten up my mood but at the end of the day writing makes me feel better.

Siguro dahil simula ng taon kay medyo nostalgic at maraming alaala ang nagbabalik. The weird things about memories malungkot man siya o masaya they still make you wanna cry. Siguro dapat ipagpasalamat ko pa rin ang flow of different emotions because it got me blogging kahit madaling araw na and tomorrow is going to be a productive day... i hope.

Last year is a defining year for me. 2010 is also the year I had to let go of someone. Its one thing na mahirap gawin para sa akin, sentimental kasi ako kahit di halata. They say If you lose someone or something may darating daw na mas okay. Naniniwala ako doon pero kahit ganoon ang hirap pa rin kasi hindi lang naman effort at time and binigay pati puso kaya its like losing a part of your heart and even though optimistic ka you knew things will never be the same. Hindi na kasing tamis ang mga ngiti, mornings will not be as bright and for a while i lost my muse. Minsan iniisip ko its better to have a broken than a hollow heart. Pain drives you but hollowness sucked you into despair you don't even want to fight. Its like asking yourself worth it pa ba ang mga bagay dito sa mundo.

I'm not driven by money nor fame. Madalas naiinggit ako sa mga taong pera lang ang motivation kasi madali lang paghugutan ng inspirasyon yon para gumawa. Shallowness have its benefits. Pero ngayon i feel rejuvenated dahil siguro 2011 na and i have learned to moved on and face all the coming years with positivity.  Alam ko things will always get better in the end.

Happy New Year!!!!

I'm going to start my year by writing. Actually wala talaga akong maisip na maisulat pero dahil isa siguro sa mga bagay na pinakagusto kung gawin eh ang humarap sa monitor at magtype ng mga random thoughts I just felt that this is the perfect way to start the year.

Hindi kami nagpapaputok tuwing New Year. Torotot lang at konting ingay. Mahal ang paputok kaya nakikipanood na lang kami sa kapitbahay. Masaya pa rin naman ang pagsalubong namin sa Bagong Taon. I prefer celebrating New Year kasi this always reminds me that things no matter how bleak or bad can always turn better in the coming days. A new beginning for everyone. Hope always accompany new year and for some reason the festivity always makes me feel better. Nakakahawa rin ang optimism.

Hindi syempre mawawala ang mga paniniwala tuwing New Year. Mga simpleng pampaswerte na nakaugalian na nating mga Pinoy. Sabi nga ng matatanda "wala namang mawawala kung susundin natin". Bilog na prutas na simbolo ng pera at paputok pampataboy ng malas. I guess its more of a Chinese tradition we adopted tuwing new year.

In my case lagi akong may New Year resolution but this year I've decided to just forego with this personal tradition. Ang gusto ko lang talaga eh mas maging productive ang taon na ito para sa akin. I made a lot of decisions na maaari kung pagsisihan in the coming years but those decisions panininidigan ko yon hindi dahil sa nagkasubuan na but because baliw lang talaga siguro ako.

Looking forward talaga ako this year hindi lang para sa sarili ko and my family kundi para din sa mahal nating bansa. Bagong taon, bagong dekada, bagong presidente... na sana maging simula ng pagbangon ng Pilipinas mula sa kahirapan at kurapsyon.

Hindi nga siguro mabubura ang mga pagkakamali ng nakaraan pero lahat tayo laging may pagkakataon na mapaganda ang ating kinabukasan.

Again Happy New Year at sana makapagsulat pa ako ng maraming entry sa blog ko.
