High point for the night
I was chatting away with an old friend, Julie, when the conversation led to a wonderful high point for the evening.
Here is the chat transcription with her permission:

Such a rush! Another high point that happened late this afternoon was me bumping into Apa Ongpin and chatting away about publishing, macinotsh computers and whatnots. Eventually I asked if ABS-CBN Publishing had any plans to release local comics books. One thing led to another and he asked if I had made comics of my own. Telling him about my indie comic DILIMAN, he asked for my card and the URL of the site. Whoopie!!!! I do hope these are signs of good things to come my way.
