Joys of Blogging, Too

Blogging close to six months now, I had the privilege of meeting bloggers from different walks of life, and I surely treasure these folks who are not just good online friends, but best offline buddies too. And this first-time Linky Lovin post is dedicated to these bloggers who are testaments that one of the greatest joys of blogging come from great friends you built online.

My partner-friend, Joliber, who taught me lots of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques is a rare gem. He is diligent, and has a heart of an eagle - soaring high with energy, passion and determination - a true Bloggista himself! His associates, Sonn, Gusher and Jan Alvin are great, nice and reliable buddies too! These guys are now working with me on several projects that we hope to launch very soon.

Movies, and the Brand New Dark Knight Movie Trailer

Wew! Bloggista is going nuts over movies lately. Been too excited to watch the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight. There’s also the remake of the 1959 movie Journey to the Center of the Earth a Jules Verne classic. This one is the first full-feature 3D movie! Of course there’s the funny installment of the Madagascar and another sequel to the Mummy too. Hmmm, wondering when will they announce the making of The Avengers Movie as well as the Warcraft Movie.

The new Batman movie features characters that later will become the Batman’s foes (Batman played by Christian Bale). Aside from the Joker - Batman’s official nemesis (played by Heath Ledger - RIP), there’s also Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) who will eventually become the Two-Face. Others are Sal Maroni the Gangster (Eric Roberts), Gamble (Michael Jai White), and Dr. Jonathan Crane a.k.a. the Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy).

Of course Alfred Pennyworth (Michael Caine) is still around as well as Lt. James Gordon (Gary Oldman) who will eventually become the Mayor of Gotham and Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) - the CEO of Wayne Enterprises. Other notable persons with cameos are Edison Chen (as a villain), U.S. Senator Patrick Leahy. Singaporean actor Ng Chin Han will also have a role in the movie.

Typhoon Frank Aftermath - Aklan Is Still On It’s Knees

While people are celebrating and enjoying the knock-out victory of Manny Pacquiao over David Diaz during Sunday’s brawl in Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, there were souls needing much help and attention - unfortunately, they were not as lucky in getting attention, even from the media with regards to their situation.

“the sad and bad news.. water system might take a month.. before supply will flow again… people are literally… . dying of thirst…..“

a 5 liter water is now selling in kalibo for P350 … a tricycle ride is P150….. a kilo of rice is Php180!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!

For more than a week now, Aklan and Iloilo including Capiz are the provinces which suffered the most hit by Typhoon Frank. Situation in Capiz lately have improved a bit, but it is still bad to worse in Aklan and Iloilo. While most media focus and attention is on the sinking of the biggest passenger ship in the country, the Princess of the Stars which killed an estimated 800 or more passengers and crews - children, babies, men, women, old and young, little attention was done to the provinces mentioned above.

I am devoting this post for a call to action among our more lucky countrymen, and fellow citizens of the world, and let everyone know the harrowing situation that is threatening the lives of our brothers and sisters in Aklan, Capiz and Iloilo. This information was relayed by a Kulasa (St. Scholastica alumna), a family friend currently living in Roxas City with her husband who is a Doctor-volunteer of this city. They have been living in Capiz for quite some time - giving up better living conditions in Manila to help the needy in this part of the Philippines.

They badly need our help, any help, from clothing, to food, to water containers, medicines and most importantly, safe drinking water. I also appeal to my fellow bloggers - if its not too much too ask, to blog about this little charity effort, or even just a link to this post.

I am including at the end of this post the communication between Eurica, and her former batchmates in St. Scholastica - so you would have a good understanding of the suffering of the people in her place before you give out any donation. For donations, please direct them to the following:
