Amapola - the Impersonator with Wings!

The book started introducing the lead character, Amapola. She (figuratively) is an impersonator on one of the bars in Tomas Morato, High Notes. On the first chapter describes how she perform to the crowd, her relationship with her co-impersonators.

This Ricky Lee's new book, discussed different set of issues of our society, from the Government to LGBT... Manananggal to MPD (multiple personality disorder)... pollution, history, family and idolizing movie stars.

Eventhough, it discusses too many topics, concerns and characters, it still stays with the story. A manananggal who needs to accept that she is a manananggal and that she is the saviour of our country.

Other characters are really important to the story. It help the readers understand more its message. Nanay Angie, a typical mother who will do anything just to cover her daughter's secret identity. Lola Sepa,typical matriarchal grandmother, who wants everyone to follow her. Emil, a fan who is willing to die for her idol. Giselle, who will fight for her love. Homer, a single dad, who works hard just to give good life for his child. The lady president with corrupt husband(?), brother of a presidentiable, teacher who fight for their rights, other gay impersonators, etc.

One comment though with the book. I feel the ending was a bit rush and the fight against the real evil "corrupt people" was not highlighted. I am looking for a real closure of the story but I dont find any. Nevertheless, the book was ok and the book launch was really successful!

Kudos to Mr. Ricky Lee and team for the wonderful "obra"!

Where will I begin?

This post was from my other non-active blogsite...

Where will I start
From the beginning, middle or in the end?
When will I start
Yesterday, Today or tomorrow?
How will I start
Telling the truth or telling lies?

I look back on those crying times
Where I was down and alone
It made me smile
It made me a better person

I try to look back on the laughter
Where I was happy and relax
It made me cry
I just noticed..
I am a bitter person now…

What's Hot Next Month?

Faith in my fate

It was not easy.
Accepting the fact we are now apart.
It was just me. Its always me.

Cant even say goodbye
Cant even look back

until when will I be alone?

Was it my choice or my fate?

burp...

End of day is near... And I am hungry.

Start A New

              I’ve created several blog sites and pages but I am so lazy to update it.  Too many ideas I want to write and share but I will use the most lame and over-used excuse.. “I have no time”.

Hope this will be the last time I create a blog page which I will religiously update starting today.
