Baguio old–timers often pine for the pine–scented Baguio they used to know. It is indeed sad that the Baguio we smell now is a mix of a whiff of pine scent and the lingering stink from mounds of uncollected garbage and the suffocating fart of jeepneys.

My name is Glo. I am a journalist. Right now I write not because I am one but because in the comfort of my room with the rain pounding on the panes I know some people outside are trying to scramble for higher grounds. And Im somehow comfortable with only the tiny water globules dripping from the ceiling, tick tocking in an amplified, thunderous clap on a pail below it.

HEART BAGUIO/BURNHAM advocates sit it out and do weekly bonfire vigils at the Pine Trees of The World Park (back of Athletic Bowl) for more than a month now. Journalists and musicians and concerned groups and individuals gather to protest the killing of the trees and the park as well as preserve the use of the same for the people of Baguio City.
