Of corrupt presidents, love affairs, and selfies with Jessy Mendiola.

Because I still care about it, here's the best of the orange blog for the past year.

Building on what was started in 2012, this year saw the blog go even more political, more social, more rant-y. Fine, there were also blog entries about the other side of love, the gooey side. And blog entries about nothing at all. This is me being a pseudo-intellectual. This is me trying hard to be the writer I'll never become. This is me attempting to make a decent job at writing, still. To the point that I finally allowed bold text on the blog, for the first time in the blog's almost nine years.

So, now, the list, which is Collapse )

Of press freedom, Snow Patrol set lists and the monsters you make when Matt Bomer reveals he's gay.

Once again, the best of the orange blog!

It's been a good year for that blog. A bunch of new experiences meant a bunch of new ideas for the blog - and heaven knows how stale it has become lately. It's interesting how more political my blog has become. How more smart-ass at times. How very cynical it has become (one reason and one reason only).

Of incompetent presidents, broken hearts and a couple of Dianna Agron references.

For the third year in the row, the best of the orange blog from the past year. Wrote even less blog entries this time (just over seventy, I think) so this will be quite short... or maybe not. I don't know.

Anyway, some of them are interesting, and some of them are this close to being inherently crap. With the fact that I spent the whole year stuck at home, gone are the whimsical, to be replaced by the gloomy. Either I matured, or I regressed. And no,Collapse )

In other news, I pretty much failed.

I don't exactly have the means to compile a highlight reel like last year's - and then there's the fact that many elements of that highlight reel seems to be cursed. Okay. That's bored me working. So, I'll instead list down my best entries from the orange blog over the past twelve months - because, really, without that many photographs, you can only work with words, and lots of them.

The survey I aped from slantrhyme, well, I'll do that on New Year's Eve. I think I'll still be around at that time, right? I'll be back from Bohol just in time.

So, here goes the list, also known as my best effort to scrub certain things clean... and yes, that is, like last year, Collapse )
