This blog was meant to highlight the need for retirement strategy. If ever it seems to veer away from its intended path and occasionally delves into Out-Of-Home media, it only does so in order to showcase how one can "re-engineer" or "re-invent" a new routine after corporate life.
The farthest thing this blog was meant to delve on would be the Ilonggo (or Ilongga) and all the idiosyncracies that come along with being one.
So much has been said about Ilonggos. More so, about Negrenses. But whether these are fact, fiction, or fantasy, we shall soon see. Hence, from time to time, I shall make some posts about Ilonggos and Negrenses. Hopefully this will help blast away the mystique and in the process allow the readers/onlookers a safe perspective to understand the quirks of a unique people which seem to be ridden with opposite and contrasting traits -all at the same time! (i.e. malambing daw and yet at the simultaneously, "tikalon").
In simpler terms...this series of posts will help demystify and unravel the schizophrenia.
are we really a mysterious bunch? :)

regarding how sweet the hello sounds, that's another one of those schizo symptoms...the sweetness of the hello may mean greater wrath when scorned.
