Ronnel, thank you for this. I am taking my PhD in Law in Australia and I had no idea I was included in the anthology, "LO úLTIMO DE FILIPINAS." I did a google search of my name and your blogspot was among the links that were returned. I just wish I know which of my Spanish poems was included. But anyways, it's nice to be part of something. Sorry to post this "anonymously" since that's the only way I can publish this without opening a blog account.

Cheers,

Hola! Well done on a nice blog Ronnel. I was looking for information on spanish love poems and came across your post Book launching - not precisely what I was looking for related to spanish love poems but an interesting read all the same!

You see I've just started out learning Spanish. I think I've found a pretty good method, but I'm constantly trying to learn more - faster - and improve. I can't wait to get over to Panama. Already made contact with a few hot Latina chicks. Looks VERY promising. Just got to improve on the Spanish :o)

If you'd like to keep an eye on my progress and perhaps provide some helpful advice, everyone's welcome. Please just surf over to Learn Spanish for Love. I look forward to meeting you.

Hasta luego!
