Cousin mo si Danton Remoto?! Hindi nga?! I admire that guy. I think, I'm not sure if I were right, he was from Ateneo and he used to edit (or maybe write for) Heights Publication.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know na nakasama pala sila sa elections.
Ano? Magkikita ba tayo sa Jollibee?
First cousin ko sya bro. H was the Editor of Height in Ateneo de Manila. Well respected english professor, collumnist,script editor. I hope also na mapag bigyan ang appeal nya for sen slot.
