Challenge Accepted

Wait! What's the challenge?

Hehehehehehehehehehehe...

There is this website http://www.pinoyhivpositive.org, it was created by a certain twitdude: @positivepoako aka Blood of Mercy, he is also have another twitter account: @PinoyHIVPositiv (pinoyhivpositive.org), you can also check his blog: http://positivepoako.blogspot.com... he is 22 Filipino HIV+ and that he aims to unite, through the website he created all Filipino living with HIV...

A very good cause... I do porn on my blog... as you can see, even this blog is littered with pictures of hot men... but between a good cause and hot men... hot men are easier to market... and get people interested... and that, at this age and time, people should already realize that and accept it as a fact and not shun it... it maybe the saddest commentary of this society but nonetheless true... people must like first what they see before they pay attention and listen... who cares if you have the solution for world hunger, world peace and the truth... if they don't like what they see first, people won't listen... Packaging is everything in this time and age... lesson 101...

Now, medyo tricky with an HIV org...  because everybody is into hiding... makapal lang mukha ko at sa twitter ko, picture ko talaga nasa profile ko (well, I photograph really well at medyo iba itsura ko sa personal kaya atapang atao ako)... but I don't think we could deny na malakas ang hatak ng picture ko...

The thing is Human Immunodeficiency Virus or HIV, the thought of it, is depressing and scary enough... and who wants to be depressed and scared? Who goes to the internet, be on social networking sites, to be depressed? It needed to be pleasing to the eye... naughty perhaps... hopeful... a little up beat... depressing na  nga yung situation, depressing pa yung out look... we need to highlight the silver lining on the dark cloud... because sure, indeed it is a dark cloud over us... we all know that and that it is there to stay... but we don't really have to dwell on it... 

It should make people smile... and not be bombarded with the reality they are living in... they must feel hope despite everything...

Am I suggesting changing layout and content...? Am I...? Not really sure... lolx

Now, when he came out of his grievance na medyo hindi yata nagcliclick yung website/org... my first suggestion was to create a mobile app for the site... thinking the reason why we opt to ignore the site and not leave twitter is that twitter is very convenient... I tweet using my phone most of the time... I think most people do... they check updates and response to twits using their mobile phone... 

I still think so... this is something, that if it is doable, be looked into...

I am currently suffering from sciatic nerve pain... slip disk... I am having a hard time getting up in bed, more so walking... it actually have jeopardized my work already... and more... well I did plan before that when things got settled... career wise, at least a sense of stability... despite neuropathy which I have learned to ignore and accept as a fact of life... I would be hanging out at my hub: ARG/RITM, once a week, during my off (I have always choose week days off, I give the weekends to my colleagues who have family and children, they need that more than I do)... wala lang... to offer hope... Marvin's mom was very hopeful the first day they went to ARG, seeing other with HIV, she hardly can't believe it... she was hopeful that her son would one day be like those others who were there... and to talk... and just let them know na they are not alone in this... and that we could be friends and enjoy life despite HIV...
