About the Author

Well, I don’t know why you bothered visiting this page. :D Maybe you’re a stalker, or an assassin, or someone who just wants to know who I am. Anyway you look at it, it doesn’t matter to me.

André’s Weblog is a project I undertook to create a space for me to unwind and express what I feel. It is not a common blog like the ones most of my friends have. I customized this so that I have more control over the content and the over-all look and feel of the blog. It is powered by the Wordpress platform. The webhost I am currently relying on is only temporary. I will have my own domain name soon (as in www.myownsite.com).

Maybe a short profile?

My name, if you still haven’t figured it out, is André. I am currently enrolled in the University of Asia and the Pacific - Manila, Philippines. I am hoping to get a degree in Marketing or Business Administration. I also plan to be a double-degree holder. After I complete my studies here in the Philippines, I want to continue and further strengthen my educational foundation at Toronto’s Ryerson University and get a degree that will complement my other degree.
