Damn Proud

Parang kailan lang, we were fresh UP graduates trying to make a name for ourselves in media. He was an artist, I was a writer. Something developed between us then (No Einstein, it wasn't a picture!), and although it didn't work, he'll always have a special place in my heart.

Many years later, he's in Singapore still doing what he loves best: making his art. And I'm...well...languishing in the urban jungles of Cebu, still as an unnamed writer/spammer. He has really made a name for himself, and I'm so damn proud to have been part of this guy's life.

Please visit this link to
The Manila Times online edition and you'll see what I mean.

Manny Francisco, bilib ako sa 'yo!

Is this Raul Dancel?
Matagal nang tapos ang kung ano mang nangyari sa min ni Manny noon, but he's still one of my dearest friends. Yan ang tipo ng kaibigan na dala mo ang alaala hanggang kamatayan. Halos tumambling yan nung umuwi yan galing Tsina at nakita akong buntis.
Pakialagaan na lang siya, ok? Wag kayong masyadong magpayaman jan at baka wala na kayong kilalanin sa mga pobreng Pinoy tulad namin. hehehe.
