Hey, I'm supposed to be an independent, self-publishing fiction writer through my Samizdat Publications and yet selling my first published books had became difficult despite the good story quality and affordability of these. I think that I'll be returning soon to that search for a publishing company like I did in the past and so I must lay down my "pride" for my other unpublished manuscripts. I hope that I'll find a just and humane publisher who is open-minded to give chance to aspiring fiction writers like me, support Philippine literature and renewed interest in reading books, and without the attitude of treating the publishing industry as just some business gamble.

SOLILOQUY According to Webster’s Dictionary, soliloquy (so-lil-o-kwi) n. /plural soliloquies/ is the act of speaking one’s thoughts aloud in solitude; a speech in a play through which a character reveals his/ her thoughts to the audience, but not to any of the other characters, by voicing them aloud , usually in solitude. (derived from Latin soliloquium “to speak alone”). Grolier International Dictionary defines soliloquy as a literary or dramatic form of discourse in which a character talks to himself/ herself or reveals his/her thoughts in the form of a monologue without addressing a listener; the act of speaking to oneself in or as in solitude.

Halu-Halo

Gallery of the Philippine Air Force Aerospace Museum and Aircraft Park, Col. Jesus Villamor Air Base, Pasay City

Before the Second World War, the base was called Nichols Air Field and then changed to Nichols Air Base. During the early '80s, it was renamed Villamor Air Base in honor of war hero, ace pilot, and veteran, Colonel Jesus Villamor. 




































Ito ang museo na pinakamalapit sa aming tahanan at libre naman ang entrance dito. Sa bawat photo gallery at mga exhibit, halina at kilatisin at mamangha sa mahaba at mayamang kasaysayan at kasalukuyan ng Hukbong Panghimpapawid ng Pilipinas. 
Kabilang sa mga agaw-pansin sa mga naka-exhibit ay ang mga gamit, memorabilia, at newspaper clippings ng kilalang Japanese struggler na si Hiroo Onoda na tatlumpung taong nagtago sa Lubang Island sa Mindoro. Lumikha ng malaking balita ang mamang ito noong panahon ni Marcos. Siguro, parang di kapani-paniwala na umabot ng 30 years ang pananatili niya sa Lubang sa pag-aakalang hindi pa tapos ang digmaan! At pagkatapos ng buhay-istragler, saglit siyang bumalik sa Japan tapos nag-settle din kalaunan sa Brazil. Hindi siya isang war hero. Tulad din sa karamihan sa kanyang mga kabaro, they seemed unapologetic sa mga atrocities na pinagagawa ng kanilang hukbo sa mga bansang sinakop nila noong digmaan.  Anyways, hindi si Onoda ang star ng museum kundi ang mga bayaning sina Colonel Jesus Villamor at marami pang iba at lahat ng bumubuo sa Philippine Air Force na maaasahan tuwing may kaguluhan man o kalamidad at sa mapayapang panahon.

Sana, makapunta uli ko sa Thailand tulad noong nakaraang taon, hehe!

A toast to one of my all-time favorite films, “Gladiator” (2000). Buti na lang at ipinalalabas ito sa HBO ngayong Marso. Kahit na ilang beses ko na itong napanood, gustung-gusto ko talaga ang kwento.

Kung di lang sana ko nilagnat nitong mga nakaraang araw lalo na noong Holy Week ay nadagdagan pa sana ang pagtungo ko sa aking visita iglesia ngunit ang magtungo sa Shrine of St. Thérèse noong Huwebes Santo ay sapat na sapat na at maligaya kong ipinagdiwang ang araw na iyon at doon din ako nag-Stations of the Cross. Pagsapit ng Biyernes Santo ay gaya ng aming tradisyong kinagawian dito sa bahay, tinutukan namin ang “Siete Palabras” live coverage mula Sto. Domingo Church sa Quezon City.
Bukod sa napakagandang religious film na “Ignacio de Loyola” at "#MichaelAngelo" sa channel 7, nakapanood din ako ng iba pang sine sa TV tulad ng walang kupas na 1993 film, Dolphy-starred "Home Along da Riles" (haha!) mula Cinema One at ang “Hugo” sa channel 5 na akala ko ay tungkol kay Victor Hugo kundi sa isang batang lalaki at ang kanyang “automaton” na marunong magdrowing at ang rediscovery at pagkilala sa popular filmmaker noong early 20th century na si Georges Mélies. At pagsapit sa HBO, tatlong gabi ng Star Wars prequel trilogy na episodes 1,2, & 3 na sa totoo lang ang paborito ko sa mga “trilogy” arrangement ng naturang movie franchise kahit na ilang beses ko nang napanood ang mga ito pero tuwang-tuwa pa rin ako.
Staycation talaga tuwing Holy Week ngunit ang pagsapit ng Linggo ng Pasko ng Muling Pagkabuhay ng Panginoon ang pinakamasayang araw!
