The Best of Filipina Soul 2007
Only a few hours remain in 2007. In the Philippines, it’s already history as the country has already welcomed 2008. I looked over the posts we made this year, and picked my favorites. Here are my Top 12 picks for 2007:
The unique history of the Barong Tagalog: a symbol of colonial resistance
An Honest Look at Poverty and Paradise in the Philippines
What is the best medium of instruction - English or Filipino?
“Paraiso”: the Gawad Kalinga movie trailer
Balik-’bayong’ - the comeback of reusable bags
A Travelling Carinderia in Miami
On the Desperate Housewives Issue
A Filipino-American Thanksgiving Dinner
“Pasko na Sinta Ko” - remembering Christmas from miles away
And for good measure, here are two of our most popular posts this year:
Jumong, Korea’s number 1 novela premieres on GMA
“Jumong” pictures, spoilers and reviews

As I look back on the past year, I feel very grateful for having the opportunity to write at this blog. Thank you to all of you who make reading Filipina Soul a part of your day.
I hope the new year is even better for you and your family!!! Happy new 2008!!!

Hi Maricar,
Thanks for this great site and happy New Year, too. Topics here are all interesting and varied. You really know what’s in and hot. I liken this site to the top rating TV show ‘Jessica Soho Reports’ shown every Saturday on GMA. You both know what appeals to the audience. Keep up the good work.
