www.quizon.com

Before leaving for Manila from Naga last Sunday, my Pa told me of this certain website that featured a rather familiar name... My father's cousin from Batangas visited our place in Bicol some days back and mentioned about the site which is the title of this entry... Now, now there is no really big deal in discovering a new site here and there for i basically do that everyday--- but a site that features YOUR name? So anyway, i did what my Pa told me and visited the site... Apparently, i had to email the administrator first to have an access to the sub-links of the site and that's what i did.

Fast forward to today and i already have an email correspondence with Gary, who maintains the site and it looks like both parties are glad that we have made contact. i can't explain it really but i felt rather lighthearted after having had short conversations with him. Sure, sure it's not like i recently discovered that there's life outside the Milky Way or that this drastically changes my way of life, but it's simply the obvious fact and realization that there are people who share my name and we, in one way or another, belong to the same family tree.

The more you know, the more you don't know. That applies to probable "distant" relatives as well.
