Abandonment

Hey, Everyone. This is expected of all blogs, but I'm abandoning this place.

And though I know that doing the expected is usually not in my plan, I'm not really leaving it, I'm just changing emails and domain names. I'll still be using this place to test out a new blog template that I'll be using for the new blog. I'll also be making a webzine just for the sake of it. I don't think I want to leave writing, just because I'm entering the world of math in college. And this is my way of doing it. Blogging. (Pretty stupid way, eh?)

In any case, the new personal blog will still be powered by blogger. It'll go by the name Thoughtspresso with the tagline 'Percolate your mind', just because it seems rather appropriate.

The webzine will be powered by wordpress, and will be hosted by the good ol' Zymic. Most likely, it'll be named The Slice, but there are other names in the line like Razzleberry or something coffee-related to go with the personal blog. But the slice seems most appropriate, due to the fact that I'll be giving you a piece of my mind. :P LOL. That's the tagline. The webzine will focus mostly on critiques and reviews, recommendations, etc. And sometimes even my views on various things: politics, society, all that. And though I know that no one's going to believe or listen to me--after all, I'm nobody worth listening to or reading about--still, nothing's wrong with it.

And yes, I know this is another one of my ambitious projects. So wish me luck. I hope that this doesn't get...consumed by the clock with my inherent procrastination.

Puppet Seckz

"I fncked a puppet because I hate my life." Don't you like how that sounds? Kinda has a particular, melodious ring, doesn't it? What? You do know that I'm kidding right?
Of course you do, child. Of course you do. Just a quick post, really. Nothing of note here. Don't mind me. I'm taking a break from writing this Pagsusuring Basa (book analysis) of May Tibok ang Puso ng Lupa by Bienvenido Ramos. I found his blogger, by the way. I was shocked to find out that he even had a blogger.
Returning to puppets, have you guys seen Avenue Q yet? Or even heard of it, for that matter? Hearing of "The Internet is for Porn" and "If you Were Gay", I thought it was going to be a really bad musical. I was truly proven wrong. It was a total love letter to Sesame Street. An awakening, a growing up, a turn of the clock on the old puppet favorite--that was what Avenue Q was. It wasn't just about the bad things in the grown-up world; it was also about making decisions and facing problems and going against temptation.
Also, we went to Ateneo de Manila University last Feb 20 to watch the Dulaang Sibol's production of SINTA!, directed by Mr. Onofre Pagsanghan. I'm so, incredibly honored to witness such Filipino literary treasures like him and Mr. Bienvenido Ramos. I hope Filipino literature would never die.
