Bob Ong’s Sixth Book Released!

3 comments

Who would not know the great Bob Ong? The author of numerous books that has made Pinoys laugh and think throughout the years. Yes. He is back once again with a new book, and this time he promises that it will be a whole new experience.

A friend of mine told me about the newly released book yesterday. As if by impulse, I immediately dragged my girlfriend, who is also a Bob Ong fan, to the nearest PowerBooks store. In just a flash, the book was already in the bag. We went home with a hundred pesos less in my pocket and a giddy smile painted on our faces.

The title of the book is Mac Arthur (Nope that’s not a Typo). A book covered in bloody red. If it weren’t for his name printed between the words, I would have doubted if it was really Bob Ong who made the book.

I just finished reading it (Bilis no?) and I’m not going to spoil anything for you. All I can say is that the book is worth the read and you are in for a very big surprise!

Written at the back of the book
Merong matigas
Merong malambot
Merong tuwid
Merong kulot
Merong buo
Merong durog
At merong mga taong
Hindi basta-basta lumulubog

Batung-bato ka na ba?
Rock-rockan na!

A Break From All The Formality

0 comments

I have been wanting to create a personal blog ever since I have started building my other blog, Pinoy Blogero.

Pinoy Blogero was more focused on a particular topic and requires a more formal tone. Blogging on Paper serves as an outlet for me to talk about things unrelated to blogging or the Pinoy blogosphere. A welcoming break from all the formality.

When I was still a part of our college newspaper, I was trained to tackle different kinds of topics for every issue. This has taught me to be flexible in writing, I learned how to switch writing styles easily. These skills proved to be useful during my endeavors on the online world, especially now that I have two blogs that are in need of my attention.

Now that I have Blogging on Paper, I really think that I would be able to enjoy blogging even more. Let us just hope I could juggle two blogs at the same time. If all goes well, I might consider making a third blog. Yipee!

What is Blogging On Paper?
Blogging on Paper is the personal blog of Juan Karlo Licudine, commonly known on the Pinoy blogosphere as Pinoy Blogero. This is where he talks about his views, opinions, and insights about anything that can be talked about.

Why Blogging On Paper?
I have been writing ever since I got into highschool. It is because of this that I became more accustomed to writing on paper rather than typing on the computer. It may sound weird, but I compose all my blog entries on paper before I encode it on my computer. So basically, I am blogging on paper.

Who is behind this blog?
Blogging on Paper is created and maintained by Karlo Licudine, an unheard of 20 year old college student studying in MapĂșa that has had his share of ups and downs in blogging which he aims to share with other bloggers.

Do you have other blogs?
Yes I do. There's Pinoyblogero.com, a blog that is focused on the pinoy blogosphere and blogging. There is another one coming soon.
