On Mindanao Bloggers Summit: Ought to confess…

Why me? Hah, aside from being almost tongue-tied, in hind sight, I tend to think that there were several things I never got to say on my talk today because, you know, I really didn’t know what to say to begin with. Anyway, I thought my task was to identify the difference between […]

Evil, evil MTV!

Okay, Kanye West rants publicly, and unabashedly “WHY DID I LOSE?!” at the recently held MTV Video Music Awards. I’m sure some of you have heard of it. He rats about why a black guy can’t win (And offhandedly mentions indignantly that Black Eyed Peas - which includes a black guy - […]

In hindsight and foresight

Southisms [dot] com is almost turning a year old. The story began when a blogger friend, who used to be my Math tutor, asked me one day if I would like to write about music on a dot-com. And this question is pretty easy to answer, since as most of you know, I […]

My Davao cuisine photo contest entry no. 1

This is my 1st entry for the Davao cuisine.

Davao Cuisine is an ambiguous idea. But when I began to listen to myself (and my gut), the first place I could think of was the eatery nearest to the hearts of a Davaoenyo’s POCKET. There’s a quaint little eatery somewhere between corner Anda (Now, […]

Podcasting is my hero!

I don’t know what took me so long to figure this out, but I should have talked about podcasting ages ago. Podcast was initially introduced as an add-on to iTunes and iPod, however, over time it has emphasized its utility, turning it into the next best source of audio entertainment, and quite possibly, what […]

Wow, I’m sure some of you are just miffed that it took me this long…

…to update. So I was going to do this whole rap about podcasting, however, had little time to finish the draft I’ve been working for two weeks already! I’m not getting anything done at the rate I’m going. It’s been a busy week in “real life” what with all my pre-final exams […]

Vday + King of Kink + The Cardigans

You need some fine wine and you, you need to be nicer.
Forgive my indiscretion, but if you’re thinking what I’m thinking, and Valentine’s was a good a day for you as it was for me - then this song is definitely for you.

Bloody diamonds and bloody scriptwriting (with spoilers)

Come on. Everyone loved that movie. Blood diamonds is lush and action-packed beginning 3 minutes since the start of the movie. You get African rebels portrayed “tactfully” as raging, heroin-driven, smoking, drinking, gangstah copycats who believe in toppling a government who is equally dubious. Nontheless, that’s not the entire point of […]

Getting a feel of IT

After work two days ago, (note that I’m typing this Monday morning) I went over to Basti’s to meet up with Blogie of http://angdabawenyo.com, who I have apparently been introduced and re-introduced to over the times we’ve spent (albeit separately) in the same coffee shop. I’ve never had the gall to actually sit down and […]

Beaming At The Success of Indie Gigs Made Just For Kicks

Konsyertos 3 is not the latest news the scene kids have heard, but Kaiban Davao can honestly say that last Friday and Saturday (January 26-27, 2007) was a smash. Surely anyone who could be drunk or sober at that time could tell fun when they see, or in this case, hear it.
On the other hand, […]
