About Me:
Marcel talks about the difficulty of describing oneself in a
predefined form. We are more than the sum of our submissions.
I graduated from Ateneo college way back in 1998 with a
degree in Management Economics. I started a website called
PinoyExchange. I play too many computer games and exercise
too little.
After a short stint working for iAyala, I became a freelance web developer. In 2004, I took over operations of PinoyExchange. We're doing pretty well now.

And because Mike got me singing, I've
found the one thing in the world that
can make me the happiest I could ever
be (other than being with Jude).
Because of Mike, my best friend is the
happiest, most cared for girl in the
world. Because of Mike, I found a
friend who cared enough to stick with
me through the lowest moments in my
life (a long time ago). Because of
Mike, I believe there is innate
goodness in humanity. If everyone in
the world were like Mike, we'd all be
living a blissful, war-free, hardship-
free life filled with nothing but
peace, soulful music and happy people.
Here's to Tangled up in Blue, and to a
future in the musical industry!

this guy! He's also a gifted and steady
person, a trait shared by most
management graduates! =) See you in the
water! Hangloose -PHI55
admire most about Mike is his
kindness. If he's driving out of his
village and it starts to rain, he'll
stop his car to offer a pedestrian--a
stranger--a ride out to the gate. If
he's out with friends and someone
doesn't have a ride home, he'll offer
to take them home after the gimmick,
even if it means having to drive to
the opposite end of Metro Manila.
Once, his tennis instructor was having
a low summer season so Mike designed,
printed, and photocopied a hundred
advertising brochures for him, for
free. Mike has a heart of gold. And
he makes me laugh. And he's sooo muy
guapo! Deadly combination. :)
