Thank you, Robbie Fabian, for introducing me to Sanny Leviste. He has truly been like a slightly-older brother who keeps me on my toes with his intellectually-stimulating activities and sense of humor (he’s become my favorite pun-ologist, someone who likes to pun).

Shortly after I wrote the posting, I badgered Sanny Leviste of Visual Moment.com, a friend of many talents especially in environmentally-sustainable advocacies, to find the photos that I had requested him to take of a squirrel. He […]

Last week, I made a new intention. I want to thank my family and friends for gently reminding me to take care of my health. Especially my coach, you know who you are, you “dogged” friend! An adversaria refers to “a collection of notes, remarks, or selections.”

This morning, I received an e-mail from one of my friends in the Filipina Women’s Network 2006 Future Search Summit google group about the Malu Fernandez fiasco.
