I am Back

It has been a while since I posted a personal blog. I think it's because of the pressure I have been through the past seven months of my absence. Graduation was in heat and i really needed a jobe to help support my thesis finances. Good thing I was hired at Rarejob Philippines where I taught English online. Then, I had to resign unfortunately because my health was beginning to compromise. I also had to focus on my thesis and my studies especially my Mst2 class in UP.

Fortunately, I was able to graduate last April. Now, I am back with a brighter future ahead. I'm starting with a niche blog entitled Philippine Home Ideas where I would feature different pre sell homes and to rent apartments in the Philippines and critic on them. I would dig into the disadvantage of the home especially the toilet and I have a section entitle "Bathroom Private Eye: It's tooooilet!" where I would critic on the badly constructed toilets of malls and residences. I would also give stars to the best constructed ones.

So you think you can dance season 4 Top 14 Dance by Katee and Joshua: The Best Contemporary Dance

I think this is by far the best Contemporary Dance that I have ever seen. It has the technique, the expression and the inexplicit story but it stirs emotion. Katee Sean, the top 3 dancer from season 4 of so you think you can dance displays feelings as if she is talking to you by her movement. Joshua Allen, the winner of the season is surprising because of how he has adopted the technique even for such a short time.

This piece makes one dancer evolve into a story teller. It gives and illusion that it has neglected the technique but actually the technique has alluded the audience as it has transformed into an illusion of emotions, feelings crafted into one piece of ART.

Poverty Distorts Technique and Arts

A friend once said that it is in distortion that a certain art is made beautiful. In saying this, it is assumed that distortion is meant and purposely done. But what if it is inevitable? What if the distortion is not meant because it is just the way the situation is for a lot of people.

Lately, I have been conducting Dance workshops for poor children in the neighboring towns in Davao City. In as much as I would be thrilled by the workshop’s impact on me, I have realized that my presence to these children was a greater impact to them.


I saw how they could have the “LINES” of a ballerina. The “Footwork” of a competing dance sport dancer and the “Deepness” of a popular choreographer. The only thing that would dismay them from being these good as I have mentioned is poverty.


It is a sad fact. Poverty has always been the boundary of most of Filipinos to go aboard different Arts Forms.


But Poverty is also the reason why a lot of artist becomes ingénues. The idea of trying something cheaper and being resourceful makes one artist different from the other.
