The Philippine blogosphere was buzzed, still is buzzing about the recent issue hounding and pounding bloggers.
Several issues were hot during the past months and just last week, and now an issue was dropped like a bomb which made everyone scrambling to post a guess who the BBB is. BBB = Big Bad Blogger.
Everyone’s pointing a finger at others who feign ignorance and in turn gives hints on someone else besides herself/himself. I think waterproof binoculars would not be enough to see a clearer picture, especially since bloggers nowadays are treading on murky waters with regards to reputation, bad or good.
Blogging used to be fun. Well, it still is, for me and some bloggers I know. Until the commercial side of writing copy-pasting publishing stuff online got the better of some bloggers.
I for one have benefited from these in some small ways, not in monetary ways but small stuff and freebies sent my way and in exchange for my writing articles about these things.
As I’ve written in a status update in FB, why can’t we just live a passionate life and blog about it ORÂ blog about things like these and have world peace instead? đ

Hubby and I have taken to viewing movies or tv series late at night. Yes, we are up till after midnight at time, watching and munching. The other night we watched The Ghost Writer munching on roasted garlic nuts, potato chips and sharing a bottle of Mountain Dew.
No movie tickets to buy, parking fees to pay and gasoline to burn. Sounds good to me.
Of course I don’t need to say that this is not going the way I want especially regarding the waist management. Diet pills that work fast, come to me! LOL
Anyway, The Ghost Writer is a good movie considering I can relate to, not with the plot but with the work. It was at first a bit confusing but as the movie progressed, the plot thickens smoothly. I do write online articles where my name doesn’t appear. Yes, it’s true. There are other articles where my name appears like this trove of wonderful articles site oh no! sadly the site has been closed. Sad, sad, day.
So while this closed, I still have other online writing tasks to finish. In fact I have a pending article right now which I will be doing in a while.

Been enjoying the relatively cool weather even if it means a lot of people, including my children are getting some sniffles. Much as I love this cool weather though I fear what the summer will bring. I can perhaps do something about the heat and bear it till the temps go down at night.
I have several plans for summer and none of that include travel yet. What are these things?
- We plan to get rechargeable fans and lights for the brownout schedules.
- We also plan to get more water containers like steel drums and big plastic ones for the foreseen water shortage. As I’ve written, we are not used to having water 24/7 and I think we can live with that since we have been doing that for more than a decade already because we are used to storing water for rationing.
- We plan to purchase more comfortable clothes for summer to temporarily not feel humid weather.
- More fruits to quench the thirst is a best way to go.
Do you have summer plans already?
