WHEN WILL IT END?

We talk about it. We see it on telly all the time.

We emphatize, we feel for them and sometimes get teary eyed.

We wonder. We ask questions. We try to find solutions.



Fast facts and figures about world poverty and hunger.
Really disturbing =(


Poverty is a worldwide problem that seems to be without solution.

But if we keep reminding ourselves...maybe...

...just maybe one day, we'll have the heart
to do something about it to let it end.


Southeast Asia is next to Sub-Saharan Region of Africa
with the number of impoverished people.


The glimmering skyscapers, the gigantic malls,
the impressive structures that we build
strikes a grim irony to the people just down the corner.

OUR NEW LINKS!

I wanna talk about my blog links. So if you’re not interested (since you’re here anyway), click on one of those Perfect Specimen posts on the right side of the screen and feast your eyes on some beautiful creatures, o’right?

But I’m talking about our NEW links, ok? Our old links love me too much already *ok, ok, “adores” me* so, no need to suck it to them. Here's our new links...

Mongkol is our first Cambodian blog link ever! He grew up in Phnom Penh but he is currently in Boston pursuing a Master’s Degree in Higher Education. Now, here’s the kicker – he’s a Fulbright scholar! Is he smart or what? *My goodness!* The last time I was offered a scholarship was when I was 12 – by Pepsi! Way to go dude!

Manami is our new link in Singapore. She’s totally sweet but she doesn’t like to be called as such, I don’t know why. Her blog W-Gmepikshinki would be very useful to people who wants something translated in Chinese, Japanese and English (and Thai?). Yup! You got it right, she encourage her readers to send in stuffs to translate for them. Her blog is a glimpse on a life of a young, smart, sweet *oops!* Singaporean girl.

Preya is kinda my crush that’s why I linked her up. *naughty smile* Nah, I’m just kidding (about the linkin’ part, the crush, I'm dead serious). No, really I kinda dig her blog Dreaming of Hanoi because its an exceptional glimpse of life in Vietnam when she was still living there. Preya is now living in Colorado teaching English literature. Have I got a new bunch of smart links or what?! Whew!

Do you see this different BISEAN icon? This is from Fable of Fable Frog -- our new link from Malaysia. Now, this I tell you – he’s one hell of an artistic and creative guy. His blog has a column of picture links which (I think) he designed by himself. I’m all impressed dude! *Cool* A Frog’s Point of View is a collection of Fable’s thoughts, original writings and pop-culture.

Another new and interesting link is Bedtime Stories by Paul – I mean, Dr. Paul. I discovered his blog because he keeps beating me on PLU Top Blogs list at No. 6! LOL. I read some of his writings and I KEPT READING! I didn’t know what’s gotten into me but his writing style is engaging. There is something there that would make you keep reading. Seriously.

To be quite honest -- I really don’t know why I’m writing this. And why I’m beginning to be more thoughtful of our links -- I wasn’t’ like this before. Usually, when I want to suck up to them, I just splatter a picture link on a post altogether or sumthin’. *staring blankly* I think…I’m evolving.

Having new links like Mongkol, Manami, Preya, Fable and Paul makes me feel freshly appreciated. WAIT WAIT WAIT! I’m beginning to sound like a grown up! *I don’t want to grow up!* So guys – here are my new links and feel free to ravage them with honey.

Then come back here, y’hear? -- NOW GO!

WHASSUP: Fuck Modesty! My Blog is One Month Old!

This is NOT a day for modesty. No, siree! I will toot my own horn as loud as I want, lift my own chair as high as I could and I'm not gonna show even a hint of humility because this is a special day!

Exactly 30 days ago on the 28th of March...this River blogged like hell. I posted like more than 5 entries on that crazy day and did a very aggressive "Hey-dude!-I-checked-out-your-blog-so-fucken'-check-me-out-too!" campaign. It seems like just last week. Has it been really a month already? Whew!

Anyway, these are my 10 THINGS TO SHOW OFF after a month of blogging. The very firsts and the very best...and a little revelation, so look at the pics closely…

Don't ask me where I got these numbers because I ain't got any clue.

But there it is! A whopping 9,945 hits in 30 days! Fucken out!

Did they really pass by here? Where are the comments? Shikes!

I feel like I'm being raped everyday...they come and go, ravage my articles, peek on my life and leave without even saying hi. HA!



My most visited entry that came from Google are these two articles. The Tallest Buildings in SE Asia and Summer in Paradise which I wrote on the very first day.

From Google? Must be those kids doing their homework! Ha! Promise, I would NEVER turn this blog into a pornographic site! Take that!

Wait a sec, why didn't those kids leave any comments? Oh those ingrates! Most visited but no comments? Ha!



The very first comment ever, came from the man himself! Coach Patrick Ribbsaeter! Yahooo! I kept waiting and waiting for the first comment till dark and then it came on the very first day! Cool!

Thanks Coach for the daily inspirations...well, let's put it "weekly" because you don't update your blog much lately. Busy?

Long live the Eurasians!
Universal Player forever!




The very first shout out came 4 days later on 1 April from Bjarne!

I can't reiterate enough to all you readers out there the importance of a little hi when you come to a blog!

You want more? Say hi! Or were you guys just here for the fucken eye candies?

Hei! Venn Bjarne! Hva skjer? Du er veldig snill. Ser deg senare!

Skol for Norway!


My very first blog to blog link up is from a blog in the Philippines called Misterhubs. It's authored by a cool dude called...well...Misterhubs! Haha!

This blog got lots of things I enjoy reading. Photos not too vulgar. A real thinking blogger. But enough about him, this is my special day! LOL


Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!




And my very first non-blog link came on 8 April with my bro' in Morocco --DJ Jocker!


It's my blogs North African debut too and I gathered a lot of French speaking friends through the process.

DJ Jocker -- you rock!

Vive Maroc!




Now, this is interesting!

My very first indecent proposal came on 13 April from a girl in the Philippines!


I thought she was just being friendly but this first letter and the succeeding letters is a classic!




And of course my very first indecent proposal from a dude! LOL. I somehow saw it coming too.

This came on 17 April and it did'nt stop here. More came and all I can do is just ignore most of them.

Hey! You think I'm that easy? Send me a photo first and then we'll talk. And oh by the way...I fuck on the first date. I hope you don't mind. Hahaha! Seriously.

I guess these proposals started on the day I posted my naked pics here! Yeah, maybe that's it! I was playing around with my blog and thought of posting my not so decent photos, which I did, to up my numbers. I gues you all missed it except for some. I took it down after an hour! Boo-hoo!



My blog's South American debut was on 20 April. And I landed straight to No.6 in the whole of Peru!
This is also connected to all the Spanish speaking countries in Latin America.

Hello to all my friends in Peru, Argentina and the Potuguese-speaking friends in Brasil!

Se lo agradable mucho!





And of course, how can I forget the blog who referred 263 visitors to me on 24 April?

I got 945 hits that day and the referral helped lot!

So there guys! My secret is out. I pimp myself all over the Internet! LOL.

Thank you Dave for that day! And as I said... I consider you as the true high priest of Philippine Gay Blogging. I visit everyday and I get a lot of input on blogging. You are original, witty and cool.

Ok, enough sucking up! LOL

So, did you see the revelation? If you did, email me. If not, go back.

So there you go guys! My blog's achievements in 1 month and I did most of the fucken work! There! Take that!

Seriously, I would normally thank all the guys who has been with me on my blog in the past 30 days. Yeah, I should thank you here right here, right now....

BUT THIS IS MY FUCKEN DAY!!! Hahahahaha!

I'm off to Narcissus to party, it's already 11pm and I'm late! I need sex!

I'll see you all later.
