| Introduction | From RP to LA to VA is a metaphor for my life. I was born in the Philippines (RP), moved to Los Angeles in 1969 and grew up there, moved to northern Virginia (VA) in 1989. I graduated from UCLA in 1988 with a BA in Political Science, and I graduated from GWU with a Masters in Management Information Systems (MIS) in 1999. I'm happily married since 2004. I started this blog as part of my ongoing struggle to maintain a personal journal, something that I've been trying to do for over 20 years with only sporadic success until now. If you wish to contact me, sign my guest book or email me at mannyblogster "symbol'at'" gmaildotcom. My blog has moved! Please go to my new home. |
