someday we'll know

i'm trying to add a tag board, and just like everytime i modify something here, like when i put up the links portion at the sidebar or when i need to edit a post, the "altered" version wouldn't show up until kingdom come. usually i only get to see the modifications done the next day. i don't know if it's just the office pc coz i haven't tried tinkering with my blog at the cafe. i'm actually quite anxious to see if merely copying and hastily pasting the html code for putting the tag board would work. well, i'm just not in the mood now to absorb diligently the details of how to go about putting tag boards. i have my blogger odder friends to ask anyway if my hit-and-miss experiments on my blog fail. or perhaps, next time i might be in a frame more "hospitable" to new things to learn. we'll find out. ;)

though officially i am a minute late based on my time card, i arrived in the office today much earlier than i have been arriving for weeks now. must be the colder mornings and the less time i spent for rest during weekends, i reckon, that's why i find it difficult to get up early for work.

anyway, today i was able to finish my routine output way before lunchtime, scanned the online versions of the inquirer and the star to update myself on events and checked some of the odders' blogs, things which when i'm awfully tardy i am hardly able to accomplish all. i also got to read wilfredo pascual jr.'s "devotion", the essay which won first prize in this year's palanca. quite a stimulating read, i must note.

i've been getting considerably positive remarks about my "reporting stint" for nbn's public affairs show, "talk ko 'to". my aunt's officemates forwarded text read "sulit daw ang pagpapa-adal sa akin" (my having been sent to school was all worth it). my aunt wasn't able to watch as she's in sorsogon for work-related travel, where she claims nbn cannot be seen. officemates are saying i'm already "network material", which makes me ponder about working again in the media.

i've told my mother to watch but i haven't heard words from her since the program aired as she was already sleeping when i arrived last night and i was still dozing off when she left this morning. i surely am most telegenic for her. ;)
