Posible ba gayod ya man intiende y man habla Chabacano, mas quien Davaoeño yo?  After many weeks following the Zamboanga crisis, and watching TV Patrol Chavacano , one of their regional news programs produced by ABS-CBN, it seems I now would be able to understand the context of what has been said in each report, simply because I begun to figure out the grammatical structure of the Spanish-based creole.

Hello. I am back! For the past few months I have been contemplating in going back to blogging in order for me to launch a new platform, a platform that will propel my career to greater heights.

Because of my previous job as a VA in a rather small SEO company, I want to re-explore those talents I missed to utilize, and give it a shot on earning on my own. I am thinking of launching a new blog that would help people encourage themselves pursuing a new venture, like getting on a new job with no previous experience, or moving to a new place, or meeting a new partner. It's about being successful without looking fake. How about that? See you very soon, guys! KENNETH
