What I Almost Missed: August 24-30

#ALS #IceBucketChallenge

The awareness for the Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis #ALS has increased exponentially during the last couple of weeks due to the #IceBucketChallenge videos that have gone viral in various social media platforms. But there are other diseases that we Filipinos take for granted. Are we even aware of the percentage of ALS cases in the Philippines? Maybe the people behind the ALS Philippines Facebook Page know. Or are we simply doing the activity for trending or popularity purposes?

#HelloKitty #HelloKittyIsNotACat

Probably the most recent news I have read that made me question the truthfulness of this world. Anthropologist Christine Yano of the University of Hawaii was dumbfounded when Sanrio, the company behind the famous Japanese icon, firmly corrected her texts about Hello Kitty being a cat. Sanrio announced that Hello Kitty is in fact a girl named Kitty White and has her own cat named Charmmy Kitty. If Hello Kitty is not a cat, then I must be part koala too. 

#Puso #GilasPilipinas #2014FIBA #FIBA2014

After a three-quarter chase, a fourth quarter tie and a heart-stopping overtime, Gilas Pilipinas lost to Croatia in its first game at the 2014 FIBA World Cup. My "puso" fell several times during the fight. The members of the Gilas PIlipinas playedt hard and we could not be prouder. We, at least to those who watched, witnessed how they strove hard to make it past Croatia's score. Finally, despite the three point shots and loose balls by the opponent, our Gilas Pilipinas got its first narrow defeat. The final score was 81-78.
