Hello old blog, I am writing to you to keep you up to speed on things. It has been ten years since your creation and a lot of things have changed and evolved. Some things stayed as annoying and some things are still familiar and comforting. I also took down some posts that felt crude, irrelevant, and obsolete (which represent 90% of the entries on this blog).
Through the years, blogging went downhill (it took a weaker form on social media called open letter) and internet memes spread fast.
Gay people now have a united front called LGBT.
Friendster died and got replaced by Facebook. The ladies on social media do not give a shit about blogs or anything that stimulates or even simulates intelligence. They are more interested in Korean dramas, Wattpad, Snapchat, (a nonsensical app that turns you into a domesticated hound or a floral urn) and some otherworldly shit.
The iconic Nokia 3310 has
been remade and relaunched. Humans, plants, and animals still drink water. Except for the people that you can find in milk tea shops.
Skinny jeans have been replaced with a more annoying pair called jogger pants. Emo hairstyles have finally faded out and got replaced by man-buns.
Philippine dishes are now on the brink of extinction as Korean supermarkets and restaurants are everywhere. You can see more Filipinos patronizing these establishments than the Korean nationals themselves.
On the bright side of things, the Filipinos have finally figured out that P-Noy isn't the messiah. A new 'iron-fist' president got elected, but many of our fellow citizens have become over-zealous fanatics.
but more on that on the next post...

I'm glad that you have started blogging again.
I have been trying to convince myself to start again, kaso lang ang dami kong reasons.
One of these days, yan ang lagi kong sinasabi. Haha
Anyway, keep it up!

Hi Redj!
It's nice to be back! Thank you for visiting! You are the only visitor here since the revival. I seem to have hit my blog 98 times (based on the current 99 hits on the counter) while trying to rearrange and review articles. It would be gratifying to see old blogs like yours bounce back. Blogging may seem futile due to lack of readers but what the heck, give 'em hell!
