While I Was Sleeping | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2010/06/04/while-i-was-sleeping

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. While I Was Sleeping. The problem with taking a respite from the task of updating this blog is that a stupid comment poster takes over. As I said before, I want the sharing of ideas in this blog to be on the level. Yet there is this virus who insist on introducing garbage comments and childish ranting in this site. Kapoy ra bag delete aning baho nga basura. I have returned. Hopefully I can post new articles and materials soon. Feed You can leave a response. LIE, like,...

Rebelmind | A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales | Page 2

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/page/2

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. December 16, 2009. I miss the Misa de Gallo. Every Christmas, I promise to attend at least one of these dawn masses but always end up short. No way could I force myself now to wake up at 4 am when I sleep past 12 midnight. But I have fond memories of the ritual, etched in my mind when I was young and when work and family had still to be my preoccupation. My recollection of the very early misa de gallo I was in is hazy, but I reckon it was in Argao town where we lived ...

The Year 2009 | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/the-year-2009

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. No, I am not referring to the Charles Dickens masterpiece but to 2009 and the country. If this were a kind of travel, this was one hell of a trip for us. Who would have thought that events that happened in the past 12 months would include those that straddled two extremes? Two points stand out in 2009, and I am not talking about the constant, which is the unfortunate way President Arroyo has been handling this count...

Daghang Bisdak | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2007/07/16/daghang-bisdak

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. Pwerte gyud ning mga Bisdak, da. Bisan sa Internet, dali ra kaayo magkapundok. Gamay pa baya ang nasulod aning akong blog nga mga artikulo ug sinuwat nga Binisaya, pero nindot na ang reaksyon sa ubang mga Bisaya, labina gyod Cebuano. Morag ganahan man lang sad ta mobutang og dugang mga mugna aning akong blog. Usa sa nakadapit sa akong pagtagad ang giingon ni Mike Ligalig Ortega, usa sa mga ni-comment sa Burger Steak, nga ang iyang lolo sa habig sa iyang mama taga-Arga...

Portion of Colon at Night | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2007/04/10/portion-of-colon-at-night

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. Portion of Colon at Night. I spent time the other night at the corner of Colon St. and Osmeña Blvd. while waiting for my wife finish her proofreading tasks at The Freeman. Standing on the sidewalk near Rose Pharmacy and Chowking restaurant afforded me a closer view of the crowd in Cebu City’s oldest street at this day and age. What forced me to leave, however, was this young call boy, who smiled at me and asked me if I wanted to have some fun. He probably mistook ...

Edsa 1 Not a Beginning | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/edsa-1-not-a-beginning

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. Edsa 1 Not a Beginning. COMMEMORATING Edsa 1, or the first People Power uprising, always generates conflicting views instead of just being remembered as our best moment as a people. Two points there: repetitiveness and politics. Also, the uprising was mainly a political act, thus it has been viewed using different politically colored lenses. Relative to this is the use of Edsa as a marker from where the country’s march to the present is being viewed and assessed. ...

Yuletide Perspectives | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/yuletide-perspectives

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. I used to sit alone on top of the Cebu City mountains on moonlit nights just to immerse myself in the vastness of nature. When the terrain is bald, you see the rough hillsides gradually fall down to the darkness that are the rivers and creeks and then rise up again going up to the other peaks. The mystery deepens with the gray of the surrounding. One of my better recollections of Christmas happened in one of the mountains overlooking the city. In the village calle...

Cerge Remonde | Rebelmind

https://cebuano.wordpress.com/2010/01/28/cerge-remonde

A Cebuano journalist’s views, tales. A few months before I married Edizza in 1999, I met Joy, a Cerge Remonde relative and former dyLA secretary. Niingon to si Cerge nga masuko siya kun dili nimo siya himoong ninong sa kasal, she said. Actually, we had considered him as our wedding sponsor even without the reminder. But that was typical Cerge,. I first met Cerge when I decided to go back to society’s mainstream after months of rehabilitation in the early ‘90s. I was in need of work but was an undergr...
