Finally, after two weeks full of delays and bad luck, I finished editing and submitting my individual project! My experience was so grueling that I don't want to talk about it for the moment.

In an unrelated note, the identity of Deep Throat has finally been revealed!

For more coverage, go to this link here.

Still no word on the identity of this man though.

I wonder if the recent accounts of 2 Japanese WWII stragglers still hiding in Mindanao are true?

Had Wilfredo Mayor (currently testifying in the "jueteng" hearings in the Philippines) won in the local election held last year at my home municipality Daraga, we would be addressing him as Mayor Mayor (the second one pronounced as "MAH-yor").

Just had an online chat a while ago with Mia Montayre, one of those people who left a good impression to me during grade school (more about that subject later). She was editor-of-chief of The Junior Agnesian during the 1996-1997 school year during which I was the youngest staff member (I was Grade 3 at that time). We talked lots of interesting stuff, and she also frequents the IMDB.com message boards (though she doesn't have an account like I do). She's probably the first person I know back from the Philippines to have seen a Hayao Miyazaki film. Not only did I recommend her another Miyazaki film (Porco Rosso) but some recent releases as well (like Sin City and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy).

Man, it's nice to reconnect with old acquiantances, especially the people you knew when you were very young. Friendster and MySpace has sometimes help me in my obsession with tracking down and keeping in touch with those people, even though their memories might not have stood the test of time. But sometimes not, so I was wondering if anybody knows of their current whereabouts, as well as maybe their e-mail addresses or Friendster accounts:

Anna Aranza (she was only in SAA during the 1998-1999 school year so she didn't leave much of an impression to others, I remember she had a younger sister who was in Grade 4 at that time and a brother in kindergarten or prep named Abraham)
Chelsea Bandojo (knew her from Grade 3 to Grade 6, then she transferred to a different high school)
Alexander Valladolid (I knew him way back from kindergarten, last saw him during Grade 5)
Camille Pilar (last I heard, she was studying in Phil. Science High School, not sure what college she transferred, but I think one of my friends know her e-mail address)
Keith Francis Aycocho
Monica Olaguer
Karen Kaye Uy
Hershe Aquende
Ms. Pia Salameno (the adviser of my grade school student publication The Junior Agnesian, last I heard, she was working in DILG based in Iriga City I think)

Just reply through the Comments link below or just search in Friendster or MySpace for "Patrick Llaguno" and send a message to me. I'm not giving my e-mail address just for extra security measures.

That would be all, thank you.
