Suplado Tips 2

My friend, the ultimate Suplado Stanley Chi, has a new book out: Suplado Tips 2!

Stan is one of the busiest people I know (myself included!), with two comic strips (Chopsticks and Copy+Paste on Manila Bulletin), a radio show (The Suplado Show on Dig Radio), a TV show (Hecklines on GMA News TV), a YouTube channel, stand up comedy gigs, a Suplado watch endorsement, and now five books under his belt!

If you’re wondering what the book is about, think of it as a Filipino “Bro Code” with a crazy cult following. And if you want to be part of the craze, win a copy of Suplado Tips 2 by drawing fan art for Suplado Tips and sending it to emailstanleychi@gmail.com.

Winners: The Scorpio Races!

Finally, here are the winners of my Scorpio Races giveaway.

I apologize for the delay, I know you guys have been waiting for this, but I’ve had a lot to catch up on at work and I’ve resumed my tutoring (5 times a week) after the holidays, so before I knew it, January came, and is now nearly over!

Also, choosing the winners (for the non-raffle part) was tough. I don’t normally hold giveaways where I have to choose the winner because it’s never easy to pick out a winner out of all the entries. I usually get Randomizer to keep it well, random, but for this particular giveaway, I thought a thematic question was more significant given the themes of the novel.

So anyway, on to the winners!

Bookish Birthday

When we were planning the Flips Flipping Pages outreach activity at the start of the year, I purposely chose January 28th as the date because I wanted to do something for my birthday as well. My wish was granted as we got the opportunity to spend a day with the kids of All Together in Dignity (ATD) Fourth World – Philippines in a reading activity at Museo Pambata.

So yesterday, I got to spend my birthday with the Flippers and 24 kids from ATD at the Museo Pambata Library! :)

Last Friday night…

Quick post!

I just wanted to share: my book club, Flips Flipping Pages, kicked off the year with, of all things, a bowling tourney! Hahaha, I haven’t gone bowling in about seven years, but well, Flippers are always great company, so non-existent bowling skills aside, I went along anyway.
