Let Me Ask You

I have been using the tag “islander” since the very start of my blogging days, but I had to settle with “r-yo” after some time, when many others used the same name as they made their blogrounds. That of course is not unexpected because with the Philippines being an archipelago, it is inevitable that many bloggers would come from some island somewhere. But some bloglinks did get confused.

Anyway, now that I am turning a new leaf (naks!) I am contemplating on changing my blog title itself. I still do not know what to replace Islander in the City with, but maybe I could ask you: would it be okay if I did?

P.S.

Following Ever’s suggestion, I commit to give a bounty, err, a token, to whoever gives the best blog title with “r-yo” in it. I will give it as I arrive in the Philippines come December, or will mail it, if the proponent is somewhere else.

Below are some funny signs I saw:

Whatever it is that comes to your mind, please follow as ordered, will you? :-)
This must be the place for cowards, eh?

    siguro ok lang sakin palitan mo basta angkop pa rin sa personality mo hihi :D medyo it will take some time nga lang para masanay :D

    geswat? ako rin iniisip kong palitan yung sakin pero hindi ko rin alam kung anong ipapalit.

  2. Mariale says:

    Ok, just ask… then, so what now? Haha. Anyway, may I suggest? Wala lang. Just asking… Haha.

    The last pic spotted hysterics in my brain. Laughs, and more laughs!

    naku parang wala akong maisip ngayon ah. inaantok kasi. pero pag may nakaisip na ako post ko dito.

    sa last photo, malamang ayaw na ayaw yan ni mcfly (back to the future).

  4. BlogusVox says:

    If you ask me, I’ll say – Stick with it! That’s your trademark, everybody already knows your site by that name.

    In the not-so-serious side. Ano naman ang ipapalit mo? “Sex in the City”?

  5. E says:

    …its a big decision that you have to make changing your blog name into something else. For two years this has been your name, i mean blog name.

    I like the no PAking sign hehehehe!!
    You get to travel alot! I HATE YOU! hehehehe (ingitero)

  6. The Gasoline Dude says:

    Change it. Medyo nakakalito kasi tatlo na 'yung pangalan na identified sa blog mo: rsandarino, r-yo, & islander in the city.

  7. Panaderos says:

    Maybe you can transition to a new title by incorporating “R-Yo” into your blog title.

    Or how about “The R-Yo Chronicles”?

    I like the “No Paking” sign. Was it in front of a school or hospital? Hahaha

  8. Sexymoi says:

    ahaha “No Paking”

    parang i’d rather have you keep your blogname kasi i knew you as that na eh :) pero its still your choice. it would still be you naman. same astig entries, same astig photos :)

  9. dylan says:

  33. fortuitous faery says:

    doesn’t sound like a travel blog when i say “r-yo ready to rumble”, does it? but i like the alliteration. :P

  34. carlotta says:

    naunahan ako ni abaniko! hehe

    ano kaya kung r-yo in the house!

    o kaya simpleng r-yo! (dapat me exclamation point na kasama hehehe)

  35. Anonymous says:

  40. Gypsy says:

    Hey I missed this—is there a winner na? How about “My Scene R-Yo” or “R-Yo with Me?” Hehehe dami possibilities ng pangalan mo, naisip ko rin yong sinuggest ni Abaniko..

  41. r-yo says:

    Gypsy: Wala pang winner e. I will still have to consult a panel of judges. Nyaiks! :-)

  42. fortuitous faery says:

    uhm….”r-yo going my way?”

  43. Abaniko says:

  44. Anonymous says:

    thanks to abaniko re my suggestions na ang susunod na blog mo is R-yo for real. ganyan ka kasi eh… kahit na two years palang tayong magkakilala, you caught my attention because you’re such a real person. not that i dont want to reveal my identity, wala kasi akong blogger account… alam ko lang, my day is not complete without reading your blog… thanks !! and more realities of life in your blog.

  45. Ely says:

    Islander in the city is OK. At first I thought, you’re here somewhere, in one of the islands of the Philippines; nasa ibang isla ka pala. Islander in the city nga! hehehe
