chez moi: make contact, if not, it's an awful waste of space...

remember that one? thank you carl sagan, wherever you are in the cosmos (did you like jodie foster my love's performance in the film? i did!) borrowed and paraphrased it for my jaspage pager greeting eons ago. gosh, pagers...so 1990s. ;P

i was at the office this afternoon so i created a new email address to accompany this blog, for those who would want to get in touch with me directly, privately, about whatever i write here. it's at . had time to kill in that cold place earlier so that's what i did.

pero erratum nga muna. i was just reviewing my previous posts here and i noticed that i kept saying 1996 UP writers workshop. ano ba yun! 1997, mama! hello. as in. '97, the year of the ek. kelan ba magkakaron ng edit function ito? hay...wutwuzithinkin! yoko ngang maging ka-batch sina third.

but back to business. who am i? (bg music up: "who are you" by the who found in the csi soundtrack)

nowadays, i work at isis international-manila, a women's info-com ngo. women and media and icts, what more could you ask for? (grammar police, please check -- tama ba yun? anyway, poetic license na lang, since it rhymes heheh) this is a part-time gig which i really like. imagine combining women's advocacy+writing+freelancing+hanging out online in one go. only at isis. the atmosphere there is very professional, multi-racial, fun and friendly. an all-women workspace! don't you just love the energy of women-only work spaces? i do. it's really a far cry from the last fulltime gig i had -- but that's another entry, a mighty mighty long one, at that. :|
