I may not have known him as much as I would like to, but the little interaction I have with him has made a great impact on me.<br /><br />Thank youOggs Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041599863258946384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-19032126300756406742009-11-27T05:59:55.967+08:002009-11-27T05:59:55.967+08:00Thank you for writing this, Oggs.Thank you for writing this, Oggs.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14819998001426664072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-78295840741867159382009-09-07T13:56:24.191+08:002009-09-07T13:56:24.191+08:00senseless, senseless tragedy. in a time where our ...senseless, senseless tragedy. in a time where our country needs more alexis tiosecos.jayclopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15292414049532804276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-9581841557531513882009-09-04T21:07:05.768+08:002009-09-04T21:07:05.768+08:00my only wish is that the film community continue a...my only wish is that the film community continue alexis' work and work towards fulfilling his wishes (which i suppose echoes a lot of other film buffs' wishes) which he wrote in the last part of his letter to nika.<br /><br />i believe, oggs' and noel's names were part of that wishlist. hehe.<br /><br />i just came from the wake, and it's super heartbreaking to see the devastated faces of alexis' mom and nika's dad. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-87521090341420116102009-09-04T16:06:11.080+08:002009-09-04T16:06:11.080+08:00Thank you, Noel.

He'd always break the ice because I'm too much of a social moron to get the knack of starting conversations. Now, he's gone and I only have these little moments to remember him by as a person. I never told him how much everything he did meant to me personally; how I appreciate the weekly screenings in the Fort (although I missed 75% of them because of work); how everything he wrote (whether it be in Criticine, his blog, or a magazine article) was an event for me; how his passion for Philippine cinema gave me assurance that there is something here to be passionate about even for individuals like me who remain closeted film buffs. Now, he's gone. All I can do is appreciate, remember, and watch other people cry. It's terrible.
