The Philippines first joined the Olympics in 1924, exactly a hundred years ago. In Paris.
I love the symmetry in Carlos Yulo's historic win.
13th Filipino to win an Olympic medal in a century. First to win for Gymnastics. Second Gold for the nation. – at Cebu City, Central Visayas

Remembering your Birthday Feb. 8, 1960-2021
Ctto.
I got Shadow when I was 34, what seems like a lifetime ago. Different circumstances, different me. She was the runt of the litter, and I was a first time furmom.
I lost her a few weeks ago, at the ripe age of 16. To old age and inevitability. God I miss you, my love. – at Cebu City, Central Visayas
And the guilt of euthanasia is weighing heavily on my heart, to be honest. I cradled her when they injected, and I felt her last heartbeat. Her erratic heart, silenced. The finality of that reality has broken me. I know I did the right thing, but it eats at me still.
Palliative care and multiple organ failure were in the same sentence as Shadow, my beloved 16-year-old mixed terrier.
I won't be ok in the next few days. – at Cebu City, Central Visayas
Your life is your size. Do not minimize it.
Got that gem from an 18-year-old. – at Cebu City, Central Visayas

‘GAGAWIN MO LANG ANG TRABAHO MO, ‘AMUSING’ NA AGAD?’
This was how opposition Sen. Risa Hontiveros responded to Vice President Sara Duterte's statement on Monday morning, where she said, "While she [Hontiveros] amuses the nation with her flair for drama, could only wish the 2022 OVP CF was accessed illegally.”
Duterte stated, "I believe the lies they peddled to the public will eventually lose their charm, and the OVP and DepEd will persist, be vindicated, and realize their aspirations for the Filipinos and the country."
Hontiveros replied in a statement, “If you’re so confident about those confidential funds, then defend them publicly.”
“Kung meron mang ‘amusing’, yan ay yung halos kalahating oras na turo-turo, pag-iwas sa tanong, paikot-ikot na sagot, at pagbabalu-baluktot ng sitwasyon. Ginawa nilang perya ang basic na proseso ng pagbusisi ng pera ng bayan,” she added.
