HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Hay.. I didn't go to any halloween party this year. I was so tired from the training that I needed to rest to regain some energy. I put so much effort and energy into it that right after I was like a vegetable.

So I am back on track. I have regained most of my energy. And I am very excited for tomorrow. It's gonna be my first day at work/training and I am looking forward to meeting new faces. I hope there would be lots of cute guys. Hahaha. Of course, AJ would be there. He is this cute guy from the training. Unfortunately he's straight. He even confided to us who his crush was. And it wasn't me. Argh! Hahaha. But hey, I can still flirt with him. Hmmm. I just hope he's not gonna read this post or anyone from our batch.

So I got a message from a high school friend asking me to go home to the province for the reunion. I can't. I have work. Haha. And even if I were free I'd still say no. I have said this the nth time, I have got no plans whatsoever to go home in that place.

Anyways, a few days back, I was chatting at YM when somebody sent me a message and told me he knew me. He even knew my last name, my province etc. It turned out he was from the province. He asked me about the article I wrote for Sanrokan, the official website of Romblon. I was shocked because I didn't wrote anything for that website. The truth was, I haven't heard of that website till the time he told me about it. So I went to the website and checked if it was true. And there it was, my article, my picture, my name. It even got my school and my age. They got my age wrong though. It said 22 when I was only 20 years old when I wrote that article. And currently I am only 21.

I wrote that article for Business World Internet Edition | Mobile Media as a requirement for my internship program. You see, I was assigned to write an article on my favorite place and I had no choice but to write about my hometown, Odiongan. The truth is, it wasn't/isn't a fave. No way. That place brings back memories I'd rather forget. Of course, I do love my family and some relatives.

So I wrote to the administrator of that website and asked if they, in any way, asked permission from Business World for the right to publish that article. Because I am sure they haven't asked me. Not that I didn't like my article to be there but hey, have some respect man! You can't just copy something from other people without permission. Right? well, I don't know about the legal aspect of it but one thing is for sure, I was infringed when they published that article without my permission.
