Annoying the Kitten
I replied...[annoyed kitten]: futureshock is so NOT your book, sands and coral yun. remember that. please lang.
[ian]: hay, bahala ka annoyed kitten, i-annoy kita to the max. [futureshock] was MY conception, it was MY work, i edited the whole thing, [and] nobody except ceres [pioquinto] helped me. so bahala ka na sa world mo. ahahaha!by the way...[ian]: ceres just told me to use sands [and coral] for the funding, with [the blessing of librarian lorna yso -- who holds the funds -- and with the] president's approval. [futureshock was conceived from the very beginning as a book, and it happened to be] the only s&c that was nominated for a national book award, so pikat na lang nimo. so unless you have anything else to say, kiss my ass.
