A place for everything, everything in its place. –Benjamin Franklin. No matter how complicated our relationship had been, it broke my heart to see you in such a broken state. Eyelids black and swollen from internal bleeding. Caked blood around the tube in your mouth. Another tube taped to your nose. A halo of maroon around your bandaged head that lay on a white pillow. Being pulled to the side as she held the other end of the tube. The indignity of lying on the roadside with an injured leg and a fracture...

A place for everything, everything in its place. –Benjamin Franklin. Love and my grandparents. Being with a man who loves you more than you love him makes for a happy marriage, my grandmother, Nanay Osie, often told me. Nanay would then tell me about a rich suitor who had become a doctor and whom she had turned down in favor of poor Tatay Endong. She chose him because she felt his love and never once regretted it in the 52 years they’ve been married. Aba, asensado na si Endong. My brother calmed him down...

Gender Equality | Shelves and Boxes
https://shelvesandboxes.wordpress.com/2012/06/15/gender-equality
A place for everything, everything in its place. –Benjamin Franklin. Note: I visited my old blog and was surprised to find this passionately written post on gender equality. I admire the person who wrote this almost six years ago. Where did you go? This seemed ages ago. Oct 28, 2006. At one point in our public administration class, I snapped out of my drowsiness when our professor said, “They always ask for the gender aspect of our programs,” then she rolled her eyes upward in exasperation. Just because ...

A place for everything, everything in its place. –Benjamin Franklin. February 22, 2012. The subject of memory is one of the themes discussed in a literature class I attended in college years ago. To be honest, I didn’t have a complete grasp of the topic. Now, I’ve just read an article about the discovery of a drug that can erase memories, ala “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.”. 8220;The science of reconsolidation suggests that the memory is less stable and trustworthy than it appears.”. Cebu 2012: ...

Movie Week | Shelves and Boxes
https://shelvesandboxes.wordpress.com/2012/06/23/movie-week
A place for everything, everything in its place. –Benjamin Franklin. Uncharacteristically watched two movies on the big screen in a span of five days. Thanks to free tickets! In “Snow White and the Huntsman,” I was distracted by Kristen Stewart’s face throughout the film. I don’t know whether I was just influenced by memes about her or she was really not displaying proper emotions. Raffey Cassidy as the young Snow White was way better. What, the nail was there all along? The movie turned out to be a musi...
