Your Isinay Bird Is Back

First things first:
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL LOYAL ISINAY BIRD FOLLOWERS!

Even as I have learned I do have silent readers (like my kailians at the NCIP offices in Nueva Vizcaya),
I'M VERY, VERY SORRY I WAS UNABLE TO POST ITEMS FROM JULY TO DECEMBER LAST YEAR -- 2012.

Believe it or not,
IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE SENIOR CITIZEN IN ME ASSERTING ITSELF -- FOR INSTANCE, TO KEEP A RECORD OF THINGS THAT SHOULD NOT BE FORGOTTEN: LIKE PASSWORDS.

In case you haven't got what I was trying to say,
YES, I TRUSTED MY MEMORY SO MUCH...  BUT WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO ADD SOME MORE ITEMS TO ISINAY-BIRD.BLOGSPOT.COM, I COULD NOT LOG INTO IT. WHY? SIMPLY BECAUSE THE SENIOR CITIZEN IN ME FORGOT MY PASSWORD TO ENTER THIS BLOG AND BE ABLE TO SHARE THE ESSAYS AND PHOTOS I WANTED READERS TO HAVE.

Yes, I was unable to post more items last year
BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS NOT YET THAT OLD TO FORGET... THAT MY 61-YEAR-OLD BRAIN CELLS ARE STILL HEALTHY ENOUGH NOT TO FORGET SUCH IMPORTANT THINGS AS PASSWORDS.

Now, if you ask me how it felt, it was like this:
IT WAS LIKE REALITY STOOD UP IN FRONT OF ME AND HIT ME SMACK ON THE FACE LIKE THAT KILLER PUNCH THAT JUAN MARQUEZ USED TO SURPRISE OUR BOXING IDOL MANNY PACQUIAO.

Behind the clouds, however, the sun never said goodbye to Isinay Bird.
A FEW DAYS BACK, WHILE THINKING OF WHAT ESSAYS ON ISINAY TO WRITE FOR THIS NEW YEAR, I FINALLY REMEMBERED I HAD A RECORD SOMEWHERE OF MY ISINAY BIRD PASSWORD. IT WAS FORTUNATELY SAVED AS A TEXT MESSAGE IN MY OLD CELLPHONE!

So now then, what?
I'M JUST HAPPY TO BE BACK! IN FACT, IT FEELS LIKE COMING HOME TO ISINAY COUNTRY AFTER SO MANY YEARS OF NOT SEEING, SMELLING, FEELING, TASTING, DRINKING THE THINGS THAT NURTURED THE ISINAY IN ME.
