Hometown Locals

                Plaridel, Bulacan is where I grew up, so I can say that I’m very familiar with the people around me. I can tell what they feel; if they have any problems.  People in my hometown are hospitable, generous and sociable.

                Every morning, I wake up and I always see people drinking beer and playing cards or, if I may say, gambling. They start in the morning and end at midnight. But these people are my neighbors, although they are always drinking too much, they are still very generous. They can even talk straight despite the huge amount of liquor in their systems. They don’t get mad at whoever they are talking to, not like those shown in TV programs.

                Early in the morning I also see gossipers. Every morning they have the latest news to talk about. It may be good or bad.  They don’t care if anyone overhears them, that is actually what they want to do, to let everyone hear what they are talking about.

                But still some people in my hometown are good, industrious and hardworking; when I wake up in the morning I always see some of my neighbors sweeping the trash out of their backyards and gardens. It also gives me delight when they greet me good morning every time I walk past.      

With this, I can say that although some of them are drunkards and gossipers, they still find the time to help and to communicate with others. I know that they are the ones I can trust because I have lived there for 13 years and I have never regretted anything.

                

Virtual Reality

Hi there! This is my first blog post and it'll be a very quick read for you guys. Basically, it will revolve around my image on the internet.

The question to answer here is " Who is Ed Lorence de Guzman? "

Well, let's ask Google!


The first link I saw when Google loaded the results for Ed Lorence de Guzman was a video. It was posted by the first friend I had in Laguna Bel Air School. This video was made because of our Music subject where in our teacher required us to sing. I sang the song Wala Ng Mas Hihigit Pa Sa'yo.  I was stunned while I was watching  the video because it was filmed a pretty long time ago and I didn't really remember it anymore. I mean I know that I sang but it was just another memory archived at the back of my mind. Viewing the video gave me a chance to go back and reminisce about my past, specifically the part where in I used to sing.

Looking at the results given by Google as I searched my name, there wasn't really anything negative to find. Yes, there are some embarrassing moments stored on the internet but nothing  that would make me regret anything. All I could find were experiences that made me smile and learn things. I also saw blogs that contained pictures from my past photo shoots. There are also social networking accounts where in I have profiles that show who I really am.

Someday, when I become  an Engineer, more links would appear online. It would show off who I will become in the future: a professional engineer with a beautiful family.

There really isn't anything I want to do to improve my online presence. I like the way it is. I will just continue on with my life and whatever result comes up when I search my name on Google again will be but a record of my life. It will be a record that I can simply go back to when I feel the sudden urge to be nostalgic.
