Celebrate Valentine at Adarna
A different way to celebrate Valentine’s day is happening at Adarna Food and Culture on February 13, 2010 at 7:00 PM with “PS. Mahal Kita”–A Valentine Tertulia. Profess your love to your special someone and bring a love letter to read.
Here’s the announcement from Adarna:
‘PS. Mahal kita.’ A Valentine Tertulia at Adarna
Date: Saturday. February 13, 2010
Time: 7:00pm ~ 10:00pm
Location: 119 Kalayaan Ave., Quezon City
A tertulia is a social gathering common during the turn of the century. Friends usually congregate in someone’s home late in the afternoon or early evening to enjoy conversation, art and culture. The mood is informal and the guests themselves provide the entertainment.
In celebration of Valentine’s day, you are cordially invited to participate in this special tertulia by sharing real love letters, poems or songs expressing Pinoy romance .
This is a FREE event but guests are requested to come in Filipiniana attire—regional, period, or even as literary or historical Pinoy lovers!
Come and celebrate the timelessness of Pinoy love at Adarna.
For questions and reservations please send us a message through our FB accounts or through:

My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
Interesting blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine. Please let me know where you got your design. Thanks

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

I do love the manner in which you have framed this matter plus it does give us a lot of fodder for thought. On the other hand, through just what I have witnessed, I really trust as other commentary pack on that men and women remain on point and don’t start upon a tirade of the news of the day. All the same, thank you for this fantastic point and whilst I can not really concur with the idea in totality, I value your point of view.
I was just looking for this information for some time. After 6 hours of continuous Googleing, finally I got it in your website. I wonder what’s the lack of Google strategy that don’t rank this type of informative web sites in top of the list. Usually the top websites are full of garbage.
I hardly drop responses, however i did some searching and wound up here Change of address via USPS.com Always up to something. And I actually do have 2 questions for you if it’s allright. Is it only me or does it appear like a few of the comments appear as if they are left by brain dead folks? And, if you are writing on other social sites, I would like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post. Could you list of every one of all your community sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
Spot on for the write-up, I really believe this website demands far more attention. I’ll probably be again to read much more, thanks for this knowledge.

Wanted to drop a comment and let you know your Rss feed isnt functioning today. I tried including it to my Google reader account and got nothing.
Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
This can be a ideal blog for anybody who wants to discover more on the following question. You know a lot its almost really hard to argue with you (not that I actually would definitely want…HaHa). You certainly put a brand new spin on the topic that is really been written about for decades. Awesome stuff, just excellent!
Very interesting subject , thankyou for posting . “Experience a comb life gives you after you lose your hair.” by Judith Stern.
