Ate Sinta's Wedding Pictures (at the bridal room, before ceremony)

2007-01-28T16:40:00.000-10:00

Here is what I have promised to post, ang unang installment ng pictures from my Ate's (in her own words...)"Kabugin-ang TomKat-wedding-of-the-century...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

2007-01-26T12:00:00.000-10:00

So I turned _ _ huh? Wala lang.
Naku...
Hayyy...

Thanks talaga sa lahat ng bumati!

911 !!!

2007-01-20T02:55:00.000-10:00

Naipon yata ang posts, or wala lang magawa, ayaw matulog…

Ika-nga sa kanta, I NEED LOVE! Wala lang corny.
Tv, movies, and songs are somehow making it both worse and inspiring. Weird no? Pero totoo. Pero just about less than 4 hours ago, I realized na medyo nearing desperate na ko. Hahahahaha!
Kaya sa lahat ng cute girls dyan, ehem... (what’s your name???ahehe) Siguro mas preferred ko talaga chinita most of times. :p

Ewan ko ba, di naman sa confident ako, pero I think I am a good catch naman, hehehehe, in fact I’m the bestest catch there is. Great looks, personality, mabait, lahat na! (Siguro by now, ang pinaka hindi ko pwedeng sabihin ay…“I’m humble”- that doesn’t sound like it right now. haha!)

Pero seriously, why?

While others are breaking off saying “they need space…” iba ang kaso sakin, I think space is the last thing I need. Ilang taon na ko may space, siguro that’s enough na.
Wah!
Kaya nga ang tamang-tamang kanta sakin (na talaga namang one of my favorites) ay Somebody to Love by Queen.

Nakakatawa man, medyo siryoso na ko dito. Kahit Ate ko alam yan. hehehe

Ok, if soon, maisip ko na di na nakakatawa to. And probably I was just being silly writing this, making fun of myself, I might delete this post. Yup. Totoo. Hehehehe...

wala lang, haven't post pix lately eh, wala lang. (searcher #1 hahahaha!)

Wahhhh!!!

2007-01-20T02:27:00.000-10:00

“I’m screwed - big time!” Yan ang sinasabi ko kahapon pa. I really felt na there is something wrong or weird happening to me nowadays. Missed one exam because of terrible traffic. I was about to take my 2 big exams for 2 scary subjects, which I think I failed (just like most of my subjects). Those are days before today.
Pero iba na ngayon, my exams are over. And the one I missed ay may remedy na. Pero aside from the thought of having failed exams, I still have one great deal of a “distraction.” Na talagang di ko maalis isipin, oras oras. It’s medyo perrrsonal. Basta. Di ko din naman ma e-explain.

Latest Discovery

2007-01-20T01:22:00.000-10:00

"Time doesn't work for me." That is the latest discovery. Yan ang sabi ko sa mga kaklase ko. Just realizing na pagdating sa school and especially reviewing, having plenty of time is really a challenge. Have to find a new way to work things out. And as it turns out, mas nakapag aral at mas may na absorb ako nung kaunting-kaunti ang oras ko to pick up my book and scan some lines nung Marketing exam ko.
Ewan. :P

No post recently

2007-01-15T16:48:00.000-10:00

No post recently. Been busy exploring flickr and multiply. Also, tweaked my template here a bit, in time for the new year. Golden Globes today. Midterms starts tomorrow. Wah!

Resolutions for 2007 and more.

2007-01-11T13:19:00.000-10:00

Ever since I was a kid, I never really gave New Year's Resolutions some serious thought.I still have a vague memory about the time I learned about it. Either it was kind of explained to me, or I just had an idea from TV. But it has never have been something I truly believe in. For one thing, it is simple that if you want to change something for the better, it can happen anytime, any season regardless of the holidays..

Also, it is often good for what? Like first two weeks of January? (At least for most people i know.) So..yun. But it's good that people are still having something to look forward to, or they are still optimistic that CHANGE is possible. So as Juno would always do, -maki-uso, once in a while-especially if it's related to a holiday, kaya don't be surprised to see me having some resolutions of my own. I will try, at least.
>Avoid mouthing bad words. That would be really something to start. :)
>Read my textbooks. Now this would be the joke of the day. Next...
>Stop the Superstitions. Di ko naniniwala, but in a very Pinoy sense, can't help sometimes to follow. Then you'll think....Why? So it's about time to stood by my faith in this sense.

Mg, Yes I will post the pictures from my Ate's "daig-pa-ang-TomKat-wedding-of-the-century"!
Pag may official photos na.

Ending the Year of Boom Tarat!

2007-01-04T11:20:00.000-10:00

This Christmas break was one of the best! Todo sa kala-lifestyle, almost everyday may masaya / importanteng gagawin, a lot of blissful happenings. Sobrang di maipaliwanag na saya.
My Ate’s wedding was a blast! Sobrang successful and all our efforts were really worth it! Once again, sa sobrang saya, it was really unexplainable.
Hinatid na namin ang isa ko pang Ate sa NAIA last Tuesday. Since her arrival last December until the last weeks of April this year, yun naman ang time for her wedding preparations.

2006 have a lot to be thankful for - great opportunities, the best people around me, unlimited blessings, wishes granted and NAPAKA dami pa. Again, words are not enough. And I am hopeful with plenty of things this 2007. It’s going to be a huge year for me. A huge start of loads of stuff I am about to encounter. Good luck sakin!
As I said, I was busy, really busy (or just resting- a lot) I didn’t even have time to check my email or even for a New Year Greeting here. Kaya kahit late,
Cheers! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!

Merry Christmas!

2006-12-24T14:46:00.000-10:00

2006-12-24T14:39:00.000-10:00

Ginawa ko nung isang araw,kahapon ngayon:
-nag pack ng mga gamit (clothes and shoes) ng Ate ko… huhuhu :P
-nag supermarket kami, nakakalula ang dami ng tao (yung meat section para kang nasa
Airport)
-nag wrap ng regalo.
-linis ng bahay!!!
-marami pang iba.

Kagabi habang nasa supermarket kami, TAKAM NA TAKAM NA KO SA HAM!
ika nga ni Dora- yum yum yum yum delisyoso!
NOCHE BUENA NA MAMAYA!

Magiging mabilis ang linggong ito. Sa loob ng less than one week from now, mag papasko, dating ni Ate Eya at kasal ni Ate Sinta. At kasal din ng Ate Eya ko sa civil.
EXCITING PERO SAD DIN.

Time Magazine's Person of the Year - You and Me

2006-12-21T20:16:00.000-10:00

Me. What can I say? Never in a million years did I thought that I would be

TIME MAGAZINE'S PERSON OF THE YEAR. But it did happen. So, thank you.

First, my gratitude and praises to God. My family, relatives and friends.

Hehehe...

Technology has been very unlimited today. It's been both beneficial and scary. But the World Wide Web, is existing because of us and it helped us to work and see this world with smaller distanes. As much as it seems really huge, and as part of our lives, take note that it still depend on humans - and we are in control.

So, my congratulations to all of you.

Thanks to Time.com for the photo.

2 Weeks to go Before Xmas, and Daniel Smith

2006-12-17T02:01:00.000-10:00

Christmas is two exciting weeks to go. We just had our college week on our foundation month and I have no idea whether I have to go to school on Monday for classes or we’ll decide on an early Christmas break.
Two-day selling was a lot of fun than expected. But our conscience is still bugging us (in a funny way- hinoldap at nauto daw namin yung mga bata!). We had an income more than a break-even (first time in four years every December). Putting a booth that has nothing but amusing games for kids was worth it.

My thoughts and prayers for Daniel Smith. Bata pa lang ako, one of my worst nightmares is to be jailed in a foreign land. Just like yung different movies nina Richard Gere, Nicole Kidman, Anne Heche, Vince Vaughn atbp. (Nakalimutan ko na yung mga title eh). I’m not saying that he didn’t do any wrong deed, chances are meron nga. Pero looking on a more realistic point of view “Nicole” was surely not naïve that she would party ‘til dawn with a bunch of American marines not having any idea what will happen. Bottom line - they are still strangers and your friends would leave you with these guys…alone. What is happening? So for me, “Nicole” is not your stereotype “innocent victim.” She should have known better. Plus, yung mga scandal CD’s ha… Ano yun? I know some readers will find this offensive, pero I must say this is just what I think. I’m surrounded with a lot of feminists and most of them have the same belief. Kaya naman ako, I feel for Daniel Smith kahit papano, he thought that a one-time deal would be it, pero di pala. May rape case pa lang kasunod. And worse, this is happening in a strange territory.
As the judge said, it is sad because they are both young.
Ako din, napaisip ako. What if something like that would happen to me? I won’t probably be in the very same scenario na charged with rape, (ahehehe) pero what if something unexpected that can stop me from doing a lot of things will suddenly happen?
I will continuously pray for him and the rest of the people involved and lahat na nasa similar situation.

Next Time na Lang

2006-12-11T01:54:00.000-10:00

I've been thinking a lot of things that I can put here over the weekend. But I was very busy, lucky me, I had the whole friday off, after that I didn't have enough time even to read a single textbook (di ko naman talaga ginagawa yun eh, hehehe). Hopefully makakabawi ako. It's almost 2am, may class pa tomorrow. It's been raining the whole day. It's freakin cold. Really cold.

Dahil sa sobrang nakakatawa talaga, I will share with you this very amusing article from MSN Entertainment.

Click here>>>Read this!
HAHAHAHA!!!
Ang tingin ko dyan ay: nung si Britney ay stay home lang at di makalabas masyado ng bahay nung mga dating panahon, nakikita niya sina Paris na laging gumigimik… at siya naman ay “Sana ako din…” Kaso siya ay isa ng mommy at di na niya magawa yun. Kaya ngayon, it seems na nakalimutan na niya yata yun, kaya party to d maxxx! Ahehehe…

Test Shot

2006-11-29T17:09:00.000-10:00

I'm here in school, at nagpapalipas sa lab ng oras. Ang mga kaklase ko ay kasalukuyang stucked sa isang seminar sa auditorium, ayoko pumasok dun kasi once na magpunta ko dun bawal nanamang lumabas... I just came back kasi from a photo shoot. WOW! Ahehehe.. As the rep kasi of our class/major parang sapilitan na kasama ko sa yearbook commitee. At ang unang bonus- kami ang i-tetest shot. In a nutshell, the studios have to suck up sa amin, so sila yung pipiliin ng school namin para sa actual yearbook shoot. Kailangan ko pa nga pala gumawa ng report tungkol dun...3 groups kami, at yung group ko dun sa isang Studio sa Manila.
Sinundo kami dito sa school, talagang they were really nice (syempre!!!)
Kaso di ko lang nagustuhan na di parin pala nawawala sa mga studio yung mga luma at nakakatawang style, like horrific na makakapal na make up (sa mga boys, pati din ata sa mga girls) at ang mga the best poses (like-"ilagay mo yang kamay mo sa may dibdib mo"...yes! pull your sleeves, like that!") Kaya nakakatawa na nakakainis.
Tapos, name a hair product at nasa buhok ko yun. Wasak na ang buhok ko! Lahat na lang nilagay at ginamit...Di naman ako maka angal ng sobra sobra baka naman magalit na sakin, pero umaangal na ko, in a nice way. Kaso habang may gusto ko pabago, a-aggree naman yung staff ng skul na kasama namin n (na head pa ng dept. niya) na ok naman daw kaya parang, ok. sige....
Naku, anu naman kaya ang kinalabasan nun....Ewan... Ok, break namin ngayon at isang subject na lang, UWIAN NA!!!

***Oo nga pala, ilang tulog na lang, December na!!!

Mga Dahilan ng Pagka-Yamut!

2006-11-27T01:02:00.000-10:00

Nakakainis ang mga susunod na bagay na naisip ko o nanggaling sa linggong nakaraan:

1. Pag ang mga kaklase ko may sasabihin na kahit ano, o may sasabihin na joke and they have to shout it right in my ears. Tapos the same hirits and jokes since last year pa yung mga sinisigaw nila. Annoying.

2. Nung isang araw na namimigay ng samples ng Cream Silk leave-on sa harap ng skul namen , at hiniritan ako ng Lady Guard ng skul… “Ayan, gamitin mo yan!” Ako naman parang “HA?, Ahh, Ok.” Eh bata pa ko lagi na kong nakakarinig ng mga issue ng lahat sa buhok ko eh… Walang pakialaman.

3. Ang Friendster Sha-kerrr. Biruin nyo nga naman may parusa yata ang Friendster sa mga taong di tumatangkilik sa kanila Di kasi ako nagbubukas nun, unless nakita ko sa email ko na may birthday akong kakilala na kailangan ko i-greet...lately puro mga insan ko. Last time I checked my account was the other day dahil may i-aadd akong “friend.” Basta nakita ko kasi sa email ko na galing sa friendster na hindi birthday o invite ay diretsong bura na at di ko na binabasa. Nang bigla nalang akong nagulat sa kung anu-anung nasa inbox ko. Puro SPAM mails na puro kababuyan ng mga taong may kakaibang pangangailangan (if you know what I mean). At ang masaklap pa nito, di bale kung mala-Jessica Alba o Mischa Barton yung mga taung yun. Kung ganun nalang sana eh di baka may possibility pa ko magka lablaypp dahil sa friendster hehehe (wow, how jologs!) Kaso, walang iba kundi mga totoy na naghahanap din ng kapwa totoy. Promise, tawa kami ng tawa ni Ate kagabi, di nyo kakayanin yung messages. Apparently, close pala ko sa kanila. Nakakatawa yung isa “SIR” pa yung mga tawag “sakin.” I tried to look for another person na same name para I can give their mail…hehehe.., kaso daan-daan at libo-libo pa ata yung kapangalan ko so di ko na tiniyaga. Sabagay di nako nagtaka sa mga ganyang kababalaghan dahil about 35% ng SPAM sa personal email ko ay puro regarding Viagra. Ah, manong di ko pa naman kailangan yun! Naisip ko tuloy ano ba nangyari sa Friendster account ko, baka naman di ko na log-out ng one time (or lagi) sa isang computer lab at may isang manyak na ginamit yun. Naku…. Patay!

4. Ang pagbibigay ng SOBRANG late na resposibilities sa akin, then at the end eh, isa pa pala ako sa puwedeng masisisi dahil sa mga bagay na di ko naman alam. Naku mahaba-habang kuwento yun…

Dito na lang sana wala ng ganito sa mga susunod…

Panalo si Pacman!

2006-11-20T00:06:00.000-10:00

Panalo si Pacman! After quick three rounds, Eric Morales was knocked out.
Simula pa lang, sobrang aliw na aliw na ko, aba siyempre pasok ba naman ‘tong si Manny with isang malaking entrance in tune of his song… “Laban ko, Laban mo… Laban natin ‘to”
(I never thought na sasabihin ko ‘to, pero parang napaka refreshing mapakinggan nung kantang yun, hindi ba? Dahil sa isang kanta na walang kupas na paulit-ulit-ulit-ulit tinutugtog sa radyo-yung very annoying song na galing dun sa Pinoy Dream Academy, yung may Kamay sa title, yun!) Nung paulit-ulit na sa TV yung kanta ni Pacquiao, natuwa pa ko, kasi at least something different naman kaysa dun sa kantang yun (kamay blah blah) na pag napakikinggan ko parang gusto ko na pumatay.
Ok, balik kay Pacman, sabi nila sana daw lagi na lang may laban si Manny, kasi kaunti yata ang nai-report na mga krimen at mga reklamo ngayon (pero madami daw ang nasunog na niluluto.) Talaga naman, lahat nakatutok kay Pacquiao para sa finale na ‘to. Siya nga ang tumapos. That game was very intense. Short but intense. Nakakaawa nga lang si Eric, parang you’ll really feel for him. Everyone thought na yung galit niya kay Pacman ang dapat katakutan, pero di pala. For him to shake his head and to stop the fight, that takes a lot of courage din naman. He prepared a lot and trained so hard plus, his nation counts on him. Kaya hanga din ako sa kanya. Besides, isa lang naman talaga ang mananalo, and ang dami na niya na-accomplish,he’s rich na rin kaya that’s more than ok.
Si Mario Lopez di ba yung nag-iinterview sa kanila after nung fight? Interview, kung saan nag bitiw nanaman si Manny ng kanyang award-winning accent-full quotables. Sabi nga niya kanina “maybe bunos” daw sa kanya ni God yun. (Mario Lopez na natalo a couple of days ago sa Dancing with tha Stars. Ang nakatalo, si Emmitt Smith with his partner Cheryl Burke na isa ding Pinay.)

Extreme, extreme, Magic Sing!

Thank God it's Thursday! I'm not yet sure if I have to go to school tomorrow, pero malamang eh I have to make time for my brother's application in UST.

In a nutshell, eto yung mga bagay na naisip ko from the previous days na worth blogging o hindi pero banggitin ko na rin:
Our prof in Law shared a great thought on finding our "Passion." -I plan to make another entry on that pero di pa siguro ngayon. Nahuli na si Gringo at medyo nakakaawa naman siya. Dahil sa Ecology subject, lalo na kong nagiisip na isulong ang pagiging environmentalist ;)
Nakakatamad ang sked ko twice a week (o lagi?) pero cge kaya pa yan!

Breaking the Addiction

2006-11-13T00:36:00.000-10:00

“Saving the environment will be one of my top priorities when I grow up.”

That is something I keep on telling myself.

I am already a grown up, but as of the moment, I know that I don’t have the capacity or the power to do the things that I pictured myself with, regarding the plan to save Mother Earth.
Earlier, I saw “Breaking the Addiction” on MTV. It's really a good news that MTV is doing their part in the issue of Global Warming. We should all start acting responsible doing what we can, before it's too late. We should start caring because we STILL can do something.

I was really interested but did not have the privilege of seeing Al Gore’s talk when he visited the country. (He had the symposium in La Salle, I think it was really exclusive ).We should appreciate Gore and what he does. Finally, someone who speaks and acts on this issue that is relevant to the whole human race.

So, before I start my regular lessons on my Ecology subject, I want to share to you simple messages that I think can inspire YOU to make a huge difference in this world we are living in, by simple acts.

Not trashing papers unless it’s been utilized in both sides.
Segregate trash. (I know it requires a lot of obedience and discipline)
Putting the trash on right places- Sounds simple, but majority doesn't seem to understand it. ( Not long ago, I promised myself not to leave my candy wrappers,papers used botles and other waste on any place aside from the trash cans.-and so far, I am still able to do it!)
Saving energy! It is more beneficial than you think!

By watching the whole show, I was surprised that we really can do a lot just by SAVING ENERGY!

Break the Addiction!
Step 1: Examine Yourself
Step 2: Choose Wisely
Step 3: Become Independent
Step 4: Re-Energize Your Space
Step 5: Transport Better
Step 6: Get Political
Step 7: Go Paperless

Yes, the school year has unfortunately resumed, it was very sad, all of us forced to bid a lot of sleeping and all the time we had goodbye. To sum up everything, narito ang isang very funny but true message I received last Monday.

Sa lhat ng tmad mgaral

s inyong lhat

CONDOLENCE…

Pasukan na naman..:)

Naku, di niyo kakayanin ang mga pangyayari. I’m just so glad the week was over.
Sobrang hassle and especially on the first day, talagang parang- “…could this day get any worse..” pero I thought that God gave me that challenge, and that offering and lifting up to Him all my sacrifices and hard work is the best thing to do. And true enough, he rewarded me with the subjects that I needed to take, nakuha ko parin in spite of the number of mokongs enrolling.

Sobrang traumatizing ang pag-adjust ng subjects and the dilemma of fixing schedules and I still cannot accept the free-sectioning, which will force me to be with a lot of strange people in my subjects.

Ano naman kaya ang mangyayari sa semestre na ito? Yun ang tanong.

Flavors of the Month

2006-10-29T22:13:00.000-10:00

In case, you're wonderin' why I haven't post a lot considering i'm on a break, well your guess is right, i'm enjoying every second of it. And I am so damn lazy to come up with something. So forgive me if no entries are flooding my blog lately.

Right now, my mom is watching The West Side Story, and I am here doing nothing. There is nothing better than a worry-free sunday. No worries about the traffic, hassle and stress of a manic monday.

Some of the things that make October likable...

Constant playing of music videos of the following:

Fidelity by Regina Spektor

Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol

Save Room by John Legend

She's a lady! Oh Oh Oh She's a Lady...

Wala lang, buong araw na ko LSS dun sa soundtrack ng Lacoste na commercial na yun eh... La lang.

Medyo wala ako masabi sa ngayon, pakiramdam ko lang maglagay ng kahit anong non-sense dito. Wednesday na bukas. At gabi na, medyo napagod ako today, did some things in Manila (yes, balik Manila muna ko today-pollution, traffic, nakakalunod na dami ng tao, atbp.) with my mom, my sister, and my soon-to-be brother-in-law. Medyo kapagod pero ok lang. Just like the last time, I really feel na school is STILL more exhausting. Wala na atang tatalo. Di ba?
That's why, habang tumatagal, yun ang malungkot...papalapit ng papalapit ang pag "bak 2 skul." Well the important thing is to maximize this break, tama?

Medyo antok na ko... 10:30pm pa lang. Aga pa nito to the max para saken. Parang 7pm pa lang ata to para sa bahay namin.

Isang Masayang Araw

2006-10-20T22:07:00.000-10:00

Pagkatapos mag-enroll, I had to take off and rush to UST to pass my brother’s application. Napakadaming tao na nag ra-rally. At halos lahat ng gate sa Espana ay naka sara. Great. At ang masaklap pa nito, di ko din pala maipapasa ang application ng kapatid ko. Afterwards, while talking to my dad on the fone, nakita ko na sarado din pala ang gate na pinuntahan ko so I had to walk pa ulit ng malayo.
Kailangan ko magmadali. Kailangan maunahan ko ang mga raliyistang ‘to, kundi patay ako sa traffic. As in kasabay ko sila naglalakad (o nagmamarcha in that case) at feeling ko nga nakikibaka na ko. Pakiramdam ko nasa news nga ako eh.
I wonder kung napa extra ko…
I walked as fast as I can (ayoko naman magtatakbo sa Espana) kailangan ko pa i-check ang isang Graphic Digital Printing shop na medyo may kalayuan pa. Malayo talaga. At pagpunta ko, di din pala nila ma-aacomodate ang invitations ni ate since pang tarpaulins lang daw sila.
Patay. Andiyan na sila-ang mga raliyista.
Lakad ulit ng mabilis! Pero it’s too late. Nasakop na nila ang buong south lane ng Espana. Sama-sama na nilang binagtas ang dadaanan ko ng walang pagbibigay sa ni-isang sasakyan.
Then later on pagkatapos ng isang malaki at jam-packed group nila, kasunod na rin ang mga sasakyan.
Nag jeep na ko. Iniisip ko, sasakay na lang ako ng FX sa may United Nations or kung saan. Basta kailangan ko na makaalis dun. Right away.
Pagsakay ko, nakita ko na madami Pulis sa kalsada, and just when I thought of talking to one of them habang nakatigil yung jeep, nakita ko ang isang mamang pulis- nagaahit. Seriously. No kidding,.

It’s like seeing a unicorn.

Parang siryoso ka? Nakuha mo pa mag-ahit sa kalagitnaan ng Espana, sa gulong to. At kung makikita niyo lang gano nya ka feel na feel, poarang commercial lang ng Gillete.
Shaving policeman, while on his job- in the middle of Espana. Interesting!
Mag pansin ko sa harap ko. Andun naman yung bata na umiinom ng milk. Sa sobrang init at uhaw, kinuha ko yung bote nung baby at ininom ko.
Loko lang, pero yun na talaga yung gusto ko gawin.

TRAFFIC!!!
Syempre, nasa unahan naming yung mga nagwewelga eh. Gusto ko na nga sabihan lahat ng drayber na sagasaan at paandaran na yung mga tao, pero din a ata makatao yun.
Medyo nalasap ko ang polusyon ng Maynila today.

Ang masasabi ko sakanila ay I respect the things that you are trying to fight for, pero sana you’ll turn your love for country stuff to something more productive. Hindi ba?
Di dahil na-agrabyado lang ako ngayon, pero I have always believed na, di naman talaga ganyan yung sagot. Luma na yan eh, ha? Isipin niyo na lang, kung may isang tao na may job interview who woke up 4 hours before his appointment, who just had a single chance tapos nasira dahil na stuck siya sa daan dahil sa mga protesta. Do you think its fair? We respect you na outspoken kayo guys, pero sana you’ll respect din other people who are trying to live, trying to work. Ok? Be sensitive.
Pati, maybe it’s about time to appreciate naman. Medyo umo-ok na ang prices at medyo better na ang napaka raming bagay like employment at rollbacks. Of course, di pa very successful and Pilipinas, pero at least we’re getting there. Do you think we will be a better community soon, if everybody will do nothing but complain? I don’t think so. Kung lahat ng tao ay makikibaka at walang magtatrabaho, I think may idea na tayong lahat what will happen. Pati guys,

Chill...

Kanina natatawa na ko sa isang babae na nasa microphone. Sobrang agitated and her voice is really cracking like crazy. Parang iintayin mo nalang tumalbog-talbog sa kalsada yung lalamunan niya. Kaya once again…Chill.

O sya chi-chill na muna ko.

Nalalasap ko na ang isang bagay na matagal ko na inasam-asam...
S E M B R E A K N A !!!
Medyo binitin pa nga ako ng isang linggo. Napaka dami pang ginawa nung last week, naisip ko nga nung isang araw last week, parang napaka epal ko na. Hahahaha// Sounds funny talaga. Pero parang sobra na. Anyway, i'm having my break now and really loving it so the last thing that I want to do is still think and worry about the past semester. So far, ano nga ba ang pinagkaka abalahan ko? umm wala lang, recently helped my sister with some errands for her wedding.

Si Bridezilla.. just kidding. Si Ate na ang pinaka HINDI ~~BRIDEZILLAng babae~~ na makikilala mo. She almost doesn't care at all, about the girly stuff on her wedding.

Cge, hopefully more time for posting.

Bagsik ni Milenyo...Part 3: Pahingi ng Supplies!

2006-10-16T23:57:00.000-10:00

Dahil sa combination ng pag procrastinate at sa kawalan ng natitirang oras at lakas dahil sa dami ng pinagkakaabalahan, di ko na natuloy ang very successful 3-part narrative story ng bagyo... So as my utang, here is the last, the third part: (Pasensya na dahil ala ng kwenta...)

Nung panahung yon, kung may natitira ka pang: TUBIG, BUHAY NA CELLPHONE, CANDLES, at iba pa (lalo na pasensya), ikaw na ang iilan na pinaka suwerteng tao sa malaking parte ng Pilipinas. Marami ang papatay ng tao para lang malagay sa kinalalagyan mo.
Seriously, parang gera! Sino ba naman ang maniniwala na sa isang malaki at kilalang Supermarket ay walang Mineral Water na mabibili. Sa maniwala ka man o sa hindi, totoo. Na kahit ang Henlin na binibilan ko ay walang maibigay na sauce ng Siopao, dahil din sa bagyo. (Nung mga oras na 'yon parang gusto ko na magwala). Matindi talaga. Isang malaki at unforgettable experience para sa marami, all at the same time.
Hay, salamat at tapos na. And the most important thing is we were able to learn and appreciate a lot of things.

Bagsik ni Milenyo... Part 2: Aftermath

2006-10-08T05:29:00.000-10:00

I was supposed to post this a lifetime ago, sobra busy eh...

Medyo mabilis din kami, bago kami natulog nung gabing yun, na-clear na naming ang baha at sobrang putik at messy na lang ang floor namin. Galing no?
Nakakatuwa talaga yung ibang nabasa ko, especially the ones from my sister’s officemates na kuwento about this experience. Ang common denominator? Everyone agrees na talagang you’ll realize how we take things for granted. Tama diba. Sabi nga ni Ate "nature is truly a great equalizer." Medyo tamang tama yun. And as I’ve said talagang there’s always a first time for everything. Di ko talaga makakalimutan ang lahat na dala na pasalubong ni Milenyo.
Times like that, dun ka pa magiging thankful sa lahat ng meron ka.

Walang kuyente…
Walang TV, syempre! (walang cable o antenna..)
At walang tubig…

Kinabukasan, parang napaka liwanag ng lahat. Kasi sobrang daming puno ang iniksian ng buhay ni Milenyo.
Lumabas ako sa may street mismo, parang disyerto. Brown ang uso na kulay ng daan. Yung mga puno at ibang gamit nasa gilid ng kalsada. Yung mga tao busy mag laba, mag linis, pumila at mag-igib. Parang lahat ng tao nag work out, pagud, lahat masakit ang katawan, alam ko kasi isa ko sakanila.

We went to the supermarket to get a lot of stuff. Nakakatawa kasi talagang PANIC BUYING. Literal. Makikita mo ang isang sales lady na nag -aacommodate sa 5 tao na desperadong nangangarag dahil sa kawalan ng kadila. Makikita mo samga rack na medyo nagkukulang na ang madaming supply. Kahit kami dun sa kandilang yun, very in need. Kaya iba yung nabili namin. Haba ng pila sa cachier. At sa mga ATM, mawi-witness mo ang pinaka mahabang pila sa ATM na makikita mo. Parang pila sa bigas.

That was friday.

Saturday-wala paring kuryente, tubig o lahat. Masakit parin ang katawan. Todo parin sa lahat ng gagawin (na parang walang katapusan)

(ng mga oras na 'to, napapaisip na kami, anu kaya ang nangyayari, ni-wala parin kaming news)

Sunday-alam mo yung massaging chairs sa mall, ayun pinatulan ko na sobrang bato na yung likod ko.

(dapat tuloy ko to kaso di na natuloy.. )kaya dito na lang...

Bagsik ni Milenyo… Part 1: Warning at Bilis

2006-10-07T01:32:00.000-10:00

Legs ko, well dipped sa baha sa garden namin. Kadire!!!

Dahil sa tindi ng mga pangyayari, hindi lamang ako na-atat ilagay dito, naisipan ko pa gumawa ng 3 part na entry para dito. Yep, ganun ka deserving ‘to ng space dito. Alam kong lahat tayo nakaranas pero sanay magustuhan niyo ang kwentong 'to.

Wednesady pa lang, pagkatapos ng medyo stressful but medyo short naman na araw, umuwi ako ng mga 3:30 ng hapon na medyo wala ng tigil ang ulan. Akala ko parang ulan lang na walang tigil. Di ko naman naisip na isa pala siyang KILLER… Hanggang makarating ako ng malapit sa amin ay basa na ko at makulit parin si ulan. Parang parusa

“Ah ayaw mo magdala ng payong, ha? Etong sa’yo!”

Ngunit mas malala pa pala dun yun! Kinagabihan, sabi sa news signal no.2 na daw kami at for the first time in many years, target daw ng Bagyong si Milenyo ang Metro Manila. Ha? Ano daw? Parang isang mabilis na warning yun. At wala daw pasok kinabukasan na Thursday. Ayoko talaga pumasok pag Tuesday at Thursadays, ayoko ng subjects at napaka dami pang subjects. Pretty loaded. Pero nung araw na yon di ako pwedeng di makapasok. May mga gagawin ako na extra-curricular pa…Panu ba yan? So, after ng ilang oras na di pagkakaintindihan na parang mga bingi, pipi at bulag sa text, nabasa ko ang text na ‘to bago matulog..
”Lets cancel tomorrow, I dont want to ruin our safety” Sabi ni Sir…
Ok! Yes! Cleared, bakasyon ‘to!
Pag gising ko kinabukasan, medyo ulan na ng ulan. I was surprised to see my Ate, di na daw niya pinapasok ang team niya. Dahil parang deadly na ata. Hanggang after ilang hours eh parang may padating na hurricane sa lakas ng ulan. Talagang iba yung lakas, parang may galit! Kung nakita nyo lang yung birdcage naming, parang binibitay na holding on na lamang. At pagkatapos din ng medyo may katagalan, tumigil ang lahat ng hangin at ulan. Nung sinabi kong tumigil, I mean tumigil talaga. Parang ni-bulong wala. As in nawala ang tindi na kanina lang eh tine-terrorize ang mga puno sa tapat naming. Sabi ni ate yun daw yung delikado at ang kanyang return of the comeback.
Tama naman ang kapatid ko… While we were taking our lunch, umulan na ulit with a lesser hangin. Then sumigaw si Buboy ang aming kasama sa bahay / Superhero,
na baha na daw ang kalsada. Panic mode na mama ko…

Note: Kahit kalian ay hindi pa kami nakakatikim ng baha. Kahit kalian. At sa pagiging sheltered, di pa kami nakakaranas sumabak sa baha, dahil alam namin kung gaano kalinios at gaano ito malusog sa katawan,,,,Ng biglang…

Parang tumataas yung tubig… Mabilis…Parang abot na siya sa gate natin…Medyo pumapasok na oh!… Then nalunod na lang ang mga precious plants ni mama sa labas. Ok let it go, andiyan na yan. Lanai namin, patay pag pinasok ang bahay namin patay, yun na!
Bigla naman dumaan ang isa pang makulit at mapilit na truck….SPLASH!!! Biglang nagbukas ang gate namin, Open wide talaga! Yun, siksikan ng pumasok ang baha sa namin, at yan na ang start ng kalbaryo… Sobrang bilis! Parang yung baba ng bahay naming biglang nilubog sa swimming pool. Ang bilis, yung tubig na pinipigilan naming sa may pinto eh dinaanan lang kami ng parang wala lang. At daig pa si Flash sa bilis naming sa pag evacuate ng gamit. Isa ding mabilis… For a couple of hours, kami ay nakababad sa baha. Yes, nakakadire pero walang nagawa. Suwerte na nga lang kami kasi saglit lang (compared sa iba) at bumaba na agad at umalis din agad. Nag sawa sa bahay namin kaagad si Baha. At yan mga mambabasa, ang alamat ng Chocolate Factory. Nasan na si Willy Wonka, paki sabi medyo expired na ata ang chocolates, kasi yung amoy eh…

Ay naku, there’s a first time for everything sabi nga nila…

Abangan ang susunod na kabanata.

Quick Weekend

2006-09-25T00:51:00.000-10:00

Tired and hungry. Di ko nasulit ang weekend ko.

I was supposed to post this last night:

What about last week huh? A lot. It was really exhausting. Last semester, when I was doing our seminar, matutulog pa lang ako, alam ko na yung magiging araw ko the next day, which means na halos tapos na agad ang second day ko- ganun ka busy. Pero kanina naisip ko, ngayon, iba na ang usapan-di na araw…lingo na ang usapan. I still look forward sa weekends (siyempre sino ba naman ang hindi?) pero isipin ko pa lang ang mga mag-papagud sakin the following week, nanghihina na ko.
Ang init ngayon pero umuulan parin.. Dahil lalo tuloy nakakatakot ang dengue. Bad trip pag di ka pa pauwiin muna bago siya tumuloy. Kung kelan ka uuwi saka niya matri-tripang mang basa! Kasalanan ni Hiro yang mga yan eh… Hehehehe… Anyway, pasensya na sa mga post ko nowadays, medyo lagi akong lutang pag nag po-post eh.

I was watching the news earlier, (tama! Meron na naming nakakatawang storya!) “Pasaway na bata, binaril ng kagawad”
Nakakaawa yung bata kasi lasing yung kagawad at naiisipang barilin yung batang nasa poste. (yung bata kasi umakyat ng poste-yung tipong na-praning ba? Ganun.) Tapos yung kagawad bago hulihin ininterview… ang huling tanong (habang hilo pa si manong sa inom)”Lasing po ba kayo?”
“Nakainum lang”… yun sobrang tambay na pinoy lang yun. Ewan walang balita dun sa “pasaway’ na bata’ng tinarget ni kagawad. Sana ok naman siya. It just shows na ok naman pala kahit yung officials natin sa lower levels eh… Laging handa! Give him enough credit, nandun siya-agad agad nagpunta sa lugar ng kaguluhan,. At leader pa ha… tinapos niya yung kaguluhan na pagpanik ng bata sa poste..Gumawa ng paraan. Yun nga lang bago ang lahat ng ‘to, naglasing muna. Bang!

After Defense

2006-09-18T12:05:00.000-10:00

Tama nga ang naisip ko, na pagbalik ko dito eh tapos na ang defense ko. Dapat babalik ako kahapon, kaso tinamand at parang pagod na ako the whole day (ang sarap pumetiks lang) kaya ayun, susunod na alam ko 1am na at oras na matulog. Ni hindi na nga ako nakapag check ng mail kahapon. Anyway, yung defense ay ok naman... may ~~revision~~. Tama medyo parang nabingi ako nung mismong sinasabi na sa amin yun. Pero ang ok nito, ay di ako dissapointed. Ni hindi nga masama ang loob ko. Siguro dahil di naman ako nag expect, alam niyo kung bakit? kasi alam ko naman na may mali kami, at na identify at nasabi lang ng malinaw ng panel. Kaya nung ineexplain nila parang "TAMA! Yun yun!" Pero ok lang. Kawawa nga yung ibang classmates ko na na-total revision. At least ngayon tapos na ang thesis na yan. Kaso may mga pumalit naman na mag-oocuppy ng oras ko. Ganun din. Pagud na ko. Sana sembreak na...

Draining Day

2006-09-14T22:33:00.000-10:00

Yep, kung may training day, naisip ko kanina pauwi na isa na 'to sa "Draining Days" ko. Sobrang long day, as in, tulog agad ako pauwi... napaka dami dapat gawin. At akala ko after defense eh medyo maluwag na, tapos biglang dumating ang isang balita na kasali daw ako sa isang kinatatakutang competition. Kaya sa weekend nalang, napadaan lang ngayon...Hanggang sa muli...

Juon-salamat at ok sa yo dito. Talksmart, Ice, Bulitas, Mixedmasks, Jennifer, Nachi- welcome, pati nagenjoy din ako sa blogs nyo... Dominic-ang saya kasi sa blog mo eh.. Yeahhh!

Ber Na!!!

2006-09-04T21:49:00.000-10:00

Ber na mga tsong!!! Malapit na ang christmas! Malapit na ang new year! Uuwi na ate ko! at ang pinaka malapit na something to look forward to, ay ang SEMBREAK! Sana maramdaman ko na matagal siya mangyayari. Kasi baka naman sa sobrang heavy ng loads this sem eh parang idlip lang ang sembreak, at wala man lang chance magpataba! Panahon na para makatulog ng mahaba! Ibigsabihin din nito ay mas malapit na SANA ang pag graduate ko... Ang tanong baket napaka init ngayon? Eh diba dapat nga lumalamig na? Nanlilimahid na ako't nanglalagkit simula nung sabado! Kaya yung thesis namin, kung wala mang dugo'ng kasam, siguradong puno ng pawis ang paggawa nun! Nagmamantika pa! Ang init ngayon!!!

Check out some of our pictures in Ziggurat, masarap naman ang food.

...Walang balanse ang lamp... Ate and os-pili sa menu

Itakas na ang favorite sauce! Talon! Ismayl...

Pati sobra sobrang harmful especially to people living there.

Crocodile Hunter Dies

2006-09-04T19:07:00.000-10:00

This was really shocking. I just saw him on a talk show recently and as always, sharing his expeditions. Considering everything he does, it is still very awful. It is still appalling. Maybe that’s the point. Everybody thinks that it would be outrageous if he would ACTUALLY die doing what he does. But it actually did happen. By a stingray. Weird. May he really rest in peace. We’ll miss his funny accent.

They are actually editing the first part, after this, it will be my dreading turn...
Anyway, finally I have started my blogroll. Very limited, huh? Well, it's a start. I'll add up soon. Maybe on monday.

Missng Badminton

2006-08-26T11:42:00.000-10:00

I was in the World Trade Centre earlier, we were required to attend a job fair. We are the only people there not interested in getting some work. The goal is to take some pictures (as a proof) and go. But my friends found a way to enjoy the whole time we were there. No choice. I have to find something amusing, so there I was, sitting in the corner of a boxing ring (really) watching "celebrities" playing badminton.

I miss playing badminton.

I wish I can play soon.

Anyway, maybe i'll post more later or tomorrow.

Ano ang Latest?

2006-08-13T02:52:00.000-10:00

Mga tsong, ang tagal nag di ako nakabalik dito. Ano nga ba ang latest??? ...Naglabas na si Paris Hilton ng kanta na kasing sensible niya, nagka-concert pa si Pacquiao, malapit na sumabog ang Bulkang Mayon, sikat na ang "Keys Me" at si Alyssa Alano, Hi-tech na ang SONA, medyo matagal din mangulit ang ulan, at may gera pa ang Israel at Lebanon.

Tsk..Tsk..Tsk... Bakit nga ba may gera pa? Kasi marami ang ayaw magpa lamang. Yun lang yun. Gusto lahat sa kanila. Medyo ganun diba? Minsan isa pang dahilan ay napuno na yung bansang inaabuso, kaya naisipan na rin nilang maki-gera. Sugod din! Although, we can't say a lot dahil sa mga technical at top secret na mga bagay. I still don't see the point, that war is the answer. Tignan nalang natin yung Lebanon ngayon. Biruin mo ilang panahon, effort at pera ang medyo medyo wasak wasak at nasayang. Yung mga tao na namamatay sa gera, di naman siguro nila winish nung bata pa sila na "paglaki ko masasabugan ako ng granada at mamamatay ako ng maaga." Agree?

"The stupidity of human race..." -Dr. Miranda Bailey a.k.a. The Natzi of Grey's Anatomy

Speaking of stupidity, nakakabwiset manuod ng news minsan. Katulad nalang ng: "Susunod...Ruffa Gutierrez at Gretchen Barretto, nagshopping sa states para sa bagong pelikula!"
Medyo nag-init yung ulo ko dun.
...BAKIT NASA NEWS 'TO??? ANONG RELEVANCE NITO SA PILIPINAS? UUNLAD BA TAYO JAN, HA? EH ANG DAMI NGANG NAGUGUTOM SA PILIPINAS (AT SA BUONG MUNDO) TAPOS GANYAN ANG BALITA? SIGURO SOBRANG WALA NG MAI-REPORT. Ok lang sana kung good news yun eh. Kaso ano naman samin yun ha? Wala lang.
Kaso minsan you can't help but to watch (especially pag nasa bus ka pauwi)

Mel Tiangco to Jay Taruc: "Jay, bakit? Di ba nila puwedeng isama yung mga hayop nila sa evacuation centers?" Kahit sobrang busy ako isipin yung dinner ko pag-uwi dahil sa sobrang gutom, natigilan ako dun.
uhhh.. medyo kung sa tao nga kulang na yung evacuation centers eh, ha? Gusto mo pang ipasama yung mga kalabaw, aso, kambing, kabayo at iba pang mga animal friends, ha? Naiintindihan ko yung sympathy niya sa mga hayop, pero what a question. Di naman Noah's Arc yung pupuntahan di ba? Sasabog yung bulkan.
Well, maybe ganun talaga. Meron talagang mga gantong mga bagay na ikababaliw mo...

Actually, madami pako dapat ilalagay kaso antok na ko at medyo nakalimutan ko na yung mga yun...
Well, maybe it's time to sleep. Sana I can post na lagi.

Ang Di Masyadong Satisfying Feasib, Kawalan ng Pasok ATBP!

2006-07-13T02:34:00.000-10:00

Walang Pasok! Walang Pasok! Walang Pasok! (sound of bunch of kids shouting like crazy…) ... Naaalala nyo pa ba yun? Elementary pa yata ako nun huli kong narinig yun sa FM. Masaya. Masaya talaga pakinggan yun. Ang saya. Wala talagang kapantay na saya 'to. Mga tsong walang pasok! Masaya talaga, (last time na, promise)especially kung mangyayari 'to, just when you need it. I'm really lacking sleep. Sobrang pagod. At sobrang stress and pressure ang dala ng deadline ng feasibility study namin. May tax, accounting, law at iba pang subject at dapat gawin! Whew!!!May nararamdaman na ko na di ayon sa health ko..
Sa di malaman na dahilan, napag-tripan ng eskwelahan naming ngaragin at patayin kami ng unti-unti sa pamamagitan ng pagpataw ng deadline na tumataginting na July 13 para sa 2 chapters ng feasib. Yes, bukas yun. Kelan samin pinasimulan? Mga Two weeks ago. Magaling. Tama, magaling. Sa kasamaang palad, walang may super powers or walang may super turbong utak para maisip o mahulaan manlang kung bakit gagawin samin to. Ibebenta ba nila mga feasibility namin? Collection ba ni father yun? Bakit? Naku sila lang ang makakasagot nyan.
Pero seriously, naisip ko kanina habang nag di-dinner, masama sa loob ko to. Di naman sa pagiging epal at higop, pero gusto ko sana ok yung ginawa ko. Yung alam kong kahit papano eh best ko, di katulad nito isang mabilis lang. Tapos malamang may mga error. Eh minsan ka na nga lang gumawa ng thesis di ba? Basta! Bahala na si Batman.
Oo nga pala, everyone must congratulate me, sa wakas, pagkatapos ng matagal na pag iintay ng classmates ko, natawag na ko sa Law. And thank God I knew all the answers. Thanks to Cris-my friend, my index card was picked. Sa mga di nakaka alam (lahat kayo yun, na di alam an mga pinagsasabi ko) ako nalang kasi ang di pa na tatawag ni Atty. binubunot nya ang card at ewan ko ba kung anung swerte pero di ako natawag ng matagal na panahon since 1st day.

Miss na miss na namin si Bukatot! Si eya na hinaharap ang Singapore ngayon. Dapat ata mag blog na rin sya. Ala Pinay's Tales in Singapore...hehehe.
Ang sarap ng panahon! Matulog tayong lahat! Sabi nga nung DJ kanina "Bed Wheather" daw pero binawi din niya nung naisip niya na di 100% wholesome yun. "Coffee Wheather" nalang daw, kaso di ako nag co-coffee eh, although feeling ko kelangan ko na matuto one of these days para inspite of ka-bangagan eh magising naman ako.... Grabe nga ang lakas ng ulan dito sa Metro Manila eh. Parang masisira na yung bubong kanina. Nag baha na sa ibang lugar. Wala ngang pasok pero sana wala namang sobrang maabirya. Like mamatay, masaktan o mawalan. hope everything, and everyone's well.

Ang galing, pinag gawa ako ng PR kanina sa OJT. And saya feeling ko natutro ko na basta ang saya kasi it's a first and sana nga i-publish. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Hehehe.

Mga problema: Panu yan, pasahan ng 2 chapters ng feasib eh walang pasok? Panu ko tatapusin w/ my 2 groupmates eh la ngang pasok?
Actually, di ko pa nate-text classmates ko, pero narindi na ko sa kotse pauwi, paulit-ulit-ulit sa radio, ilang beses na nasabi na si Malacanang na ang nagsabi, I think di na makakapegul kahit si Fr.Rector nun.
Mga Estudyante, wala ng maitatanung pa...
-lahat ng public/private
-elementary-high school-college
-ncr, regions 1-4

So yun. pahinga na. 82% na ang charged dito sa ibuk ma MA-MI-MISS KO 'TO 2 D MAXXX!!! .Umaga na naman.Sarrrrrap matulog ngayon!

Sad Saturday

2006-07-08T19:30:00.000-10:00

It has been a long time since my last post. Simply because wala ng time. Talagang walang time. OJT + Feasibility (thesis) and meron pang mga accounting, tax, law at lahat lahat in between. So wala lang to. Just an update. Sad saturday. Hinatid namin ate ko sa NAIA earlier kasi papunta siyang Singapore. Sad. Yun lang.
That's all for now. Wala lang talaga.

Still alive but hardly kicking :)

2006-06-21T08:54:00.000-10:00

Wala naman akong planong mag post ngayon, dahil wala naman talaga akong time. Pero naisip ko baka dumating nanaman ang sakit ng pagkalimot sa pag ba-blog. So eto sa takot na mabura ako sa circulation ng mga blogs at di na maging in... eto na ako. Sa sobrang kawalan ng oras at sa dami ng ginagawa eh di talaga pag ba-blog ang priority. Kahapon lang, na realize ko na ang talagang pahinga ko lang pala kahapon eh yung tulog ko kagabi. Literal at Totoo. Ilang pounds na kaya dun sa mga na gain ko nung summer ang nawala sakin? Siguro sa weekend nalang ako aapak dun sa timbangan na yun. Nakakapagod, parang araw araw na ata ako sa Makati para sa practicum ko... Kelan naman kaya ako makakahanap ng OK na company saken. Lord, wag nyo naman po akong dalin sa landas ng Insurance o bangko... Sana din po eh ok pa ang health ko... Speaking of health, nag send si ate saken kaninang umaga ng Ok na email. I should post it here. It is about the causes of brain damage etc. Although alam ko naman na medyo may tama na ang utak ko... siguro nga it's time to make some changes. Isa dun eh pag NO BREAKFAST daw. Eh bata pa ko di na ko nag be breakfast eh! Siguro dun nalang dapat isisi yung brain damage ko. Medyo agree nga kami earlier ng mga friends ko... Lahat yata kami eh meron na nun... Hehehe. Pagud nako! Bruin mo nga naman wednesday palang ngayon! Eh parang two weeks na yung pagud ko eh. Bukas eh Pep rally sa skul... Aalis nako dun at ni- isang beses eh di pa ko nakaka atend dun. Rivermaya will be there. Nakakatamad pumasok dahil i c-cut off din naman ang classes. Malamang balik nalang ako makati tomorrow instead. O ayun by now I've realized one more time na therapeutic ang blogging. Although 100% non sense man ang storya ko for today siguro yung therapy at yung stress na naalis sakin-kung meron man( atleast 1%) eh yun naman siguro ang benefit nun.
O sya tapos na.
Sana makapag blog akoASAP

Suggested Source of Entertainment sa Pinas

2006-06-10T15:02:00.000-10:00

Nakaka pagod na ang mga walang kamatayang SPAM sa email ko. Twing i-che check ko nlang ang mail ko, ang mga spam pa ang nangunguna sa mga mail. Nakakasawa na ang mag bura at mag send nitong mga to as spam. Paulit-ulit lang din namang bumabalik. May kakulitan.
Ngayon ay balik skuling na ulit kaya naman, ang mga lumang paniniwala ay balik na sa dati. Hanggat maari ay- matulog, kumain, at mag stay sa bahay hangga't maaari. Dahil ang skul ay talaga namang nakakapagod.
Medyo lutang na rin ako dahil 3am na. Buti na nga lang at rest day today.

Oo nga pala, nakalimutan kong i-post dito tong storyang to na talagang nagpatawa samin ng todo. Mga few weeks ago, nanunuod kami ng news, in true tabloid sense may ni report na may ahas daw sa kabaong yung isang lalaki na nagtulak sa mga kamag anak niya para maging ballistic! Todo sa pag reklamo yung mga relatives at ang salarin daw at dapat sisihin ay yung nag bigay ng funeral service sa kanila- di daw nila magagawa yun dahil mahal na mahal nila yung tatay nila. Yung funeral service company naman nung ininterbyu eh malabo daw na sila yung dapat ituro dun... Pag inisip mo nga naman eh medyo mapapaisip ka din... yung mga kamag-anak eh talagang nag intay na dumating yung news crew para kunan ng video si Snakey na sarap na sarap gumapang kay manong (one point-sa pagmamahal kay tatay!). Pero after few seconds di na pala kailangan mapaisip dahil yung mga kamag-anak ni manong just announced na di na daw nila kukunin yung ahas at ililibing na daw nila yung tatay nila kasama yun. (How sweet!) Ang isa pang nakakatawa ay kung panu kalapit si Manong sa mga hayop at insekto! Na makikita 3 times.Sa start kasi ng report pinakita yung picture ni manong-(Manong poses with an insect sa right side.) Then yung video nga ng bonding nila ni Snakey, then finally and final shot sa coffin ni Manong bago tapusin yung report- ang kabaong puro lamok at kung anu anupang insekto. Siguro nga di na ma de-deny kung gano sya ka-close sa animals and insects.
Sa totoo lang kung naghahanap ka ng true entertainment eh wag na mag hanap ng kahit anung sitcom diyan, dahil ilang police patrol lang sa ilang presinto eh sobra sobra na.

Top favourites;
1. Mga huli sa akto ni Misis/ Mister
2. Mga lasing sa presinto
3.Mga nagtatangkang magpakamataay (na 90% ay laging may palpak sa pag-plano.)

Iskul Again... Bye Bye Summer lovin' :p

2006-06-06T22:35:00.000-10:00

Sorry, I haven't been able to post for a while.
I can't believe that I had to go to school already. I haven't even taken much expected rest, and now, I have to go to school again.

My sked will just amaze you. I have a 6 hour-break every monday and wednesday-which will be for my Practicum, but what the hell am I suppose to do with that 6 hours until I will have my OJT? And so far, it's been just three days and I am so sick and tired. My subjects seem to be heavy from Law to Tax to Accounting and a
lot more=pain!

So, even though I didn't have much of it, it's been a great summer! And it is so sad we have to say goodbye to early.

Hopefully it will all be lesser stressful as expected. Hope everything will be OK!

>>> Thanks to everyone who said that they love this blog. Thanks for putting me on the roll and making this as one of the your links. I will put my links asap.

Soul Patrol!!!

2006-05-24T16:00:00.000-10:00

Yup, as expected, Hicks is the new American idol. It was an amazing finale, lots of great performances and surprises. The idols were surprising-performances were really good. Some of my favorite parts were each of the Top 5’s performance (w/ Mary J. Blige, Live and more, the most entertaining was Katharine with Meatloaf…hahaha!), Carrie’s performance, the segment on Kellie Pickler with Wolfgang Puck, the last duet of Taylor and Katharine, and the Bert Medley (great selection of songs-each really fits well on the idols), last but not the leastis the emotional Knight Rider. He was really in tears.
The result was expected. But prince’s appearance wasn’t.

Elliott!

2006-05-19T10:41:00.000-10:00

Our guy was, in fact, eliminated last night. It was reeeeeeeeeeeeeally sad. Depressing, actually.

To describe the atmosphere in most American Idol regions across the globe, I think, I can pretty say that there is a clear “Kill Kat” spelled right in everyone’s face. I think it is pretty unfair. Elliott deserved to be in that finale. That would be very cool if Taylor and Elliott would have battled it out for that finale. I think this is the first time, where an ACTUAL "possiblest" winner went home before the finale.
But to give Kathrine her credit, and we might hate to admit it, but that Somewhere Over the Rainbow was a killer.

It's sad that it happen that night, and took some more votes. Everone is still Depressed (with a capital D). That was just wrong mah fellas! Completely wrong. Well, everyone hopes he will be successful, he is a great guy. And even Ryan kept telling him that he is a good man.

Oh, this is funny.. I've read this:

the meaning of that McPheever is "self absorbed" or "conceited"

That epidemic is funny but maybe it all started when she doesn't want to accept any bad (true) comments anymore.

But Taylor will surely win. I mean, that should be the result on thursday.

Caloy, Retreat at ang Katahimikan

2006-05-18T14:04:00.000-10:00

I went home last Saturday from my retreat. I decide to drop by Makati first so I can buy my mom a present for mother's day and my brother for his birthday, which is that day. I was tired and can't wait to go home. I went home early evening. I was surprised to see my sister at home cause she is supposed to be in Cebu or Boracay but due to the insisting behavior of Caloy, her flight was cancelled, twice.
Anyway, she just came home last Tuesday after several days in Boracay. And Caloy decided to go to China.
I liked the weather during Caloy. I think everyone in the Philippines liked it after the dehydrating heat waves of summer. At least now the temperature is ok. I somehow liked that Caloy, as long as no bad news. But sadly, I guess about 40 people died. Sad.
I spent my Friday for my retreat. Ok lang. That is the exact words to describe that one. I didn't exactly have a great time with my classmates but that one is expected already. I am actually expected to have my retreat with my block mates, but I took it anyways this summer. As I was saying- ok lang naman talaga. Not really exciting. Maybe exciting for most of them after they had a nice and long drinking session that night (yup, it is a retreat but nothing seem to stop my fellas). It is really funny how my smoking classmates will do anything just to have that stick, and is so scared to be seen with it. Unfortunately, our room was their favorite spot for that activity. The activities were ok lang, (once again) As usual, asa pang I will actually focus on them, di ba? But I have to mention one video they've shown us.. It is the edited cuts of Passion of the Christ pero may catch... Ang audio? ....Bryan Adams. I'm not sure 'bout the title basta may do anything for you yata. At first I thought it was a Michael Learns to Rock song, di pala. As in! All the time that we are supposed to reflect, I was laughing my ass off. Syempre initial reaction ko nung nag play eh.. Are you serious? Kasi parang pang comedy talaga. Then it is supposed to tell God's message pala through the lyrics. I mean, I don't have anything 'bout that, except that line " I'll lie for you." I don't think God has ever lied before, my friends, so someone please edit that. Pero seriously, yun talaga yung audio? I'm still laughing 'bout it.
Another activity: Paper on your back, and everyone else will write something bout u or their message to you.
I already thought that we’d be having this one. Ok so as expected eh same words ang nakalagay sakin...TAHIMIK!!! And they are still bugging me about it. "juno, bakit ang tahimik mo?"- yeah, that kind of s**t. Actually, di naman talaga ako tahimik. Go to my house and you'll know what I mean. Wala atang tahimik sa bahay namin eh. And even to my friends, di totoo yun. So there is a reason why...
1. If you are too boring, even after several attempts.
2. If I don't like you.
3. If I like you and I am shy.
4. If I can't comprehend yo stupid ass.
Maybe there's a lot more. Pero yan palang ang naiisip ko sa ngayon.
I think I am going to be sick. This cold is killing me and I haven't taken my lunch yet.
>>> Go Elliot! Hope he won't be eliminated later.
I'll be back. Maybe tonight.

i'll be back

2006-05-17T15:46:00.000-10:00

Well, I am really dying here to post my new entries. I think there's a lot to tell. But now's not exactly the perfect time. I am here at school at the lab, dying (again) to finish my research paper on the last minute. I have to pass it tomorrow. And worse, i am spreading an epidemic right now, my nose is as runny as hell. Anyways and anyhows, i'll come back hopefully tonight. i'll make time for blogging.

By the way, thanks Annie for dropping by here.

Before mah retreat...

2006-05-12T10:33:00.000-10:00

Yes, i'll be having my retreat later. Somehow, I just want it to be done. My blockmates will probably kill me for taking this subject in advance kasi we're supposed to take it on the second semester so sabay-sabay kaming mag re-retreat. so, yun.

I just want to make sure that i'll be blogging before I leave. Malay niyo mag-iba ko after this retreat, with matching ALLELUHIA pa sa background! Baka sa saturday night when I get back bago nako ng sobra sobra... hehehehehe. I guess I have to prepare myself and practice kung pano pumigil ng tawa habang ang lahat ay nag uumapaw sa luha... Seriously though, I really want to be prepared so as strange as it sounds I thought last night while taking a shower the things that I can say later. Just the right time and place to think of this things, huh? Well anyway, I thought pano kung ang tanung eh biggest regret? Naku dun palang eh wala nakong maisasagot. Seriously once again, Habang lahat ay puno ng puot, galit at hinanakit, pag kinumpara ako siguro i-rerefund nalang ang pang retreat ko. Alam ko na, magiimbento nalang ako. Hehehehe... so yun lang.

Temptation Island

2006-05-08T19:56:00.000-10:00

Text from regalfilms.com:
Survival of the most beautiful and sexiest women: Dina Bonnevie, Bambi Arambulo, Jennifer Cortez, Azenith Briones and Deborah Sun - trapped in an island. Who will survive and who will be ousted.

************
You have to see this. No kidding, YOU MUST. Actually, There's not that much to say about this movie. Talagang kailangan panuorin mo lang. Words aren't enough to express how entertaining it is.

My sister brought this VCD last weekend classic daw and it's really infamous for a lot of scenes and award-winning lines, so we watched it saturday night. Sobrang nakakatawa. First five minutes pa lang and you will be hooked. Kaunti na nga lang yata ang copies nito for distribution. Sad.
And take note na it is not meant na maging comedy, kaya serious acting and writing ang laman nito.

I want to mention some classic scenes (like yung pag kanta ng Somewhere habang kinakain nila yung inihaw na bading) pero panuorin nalang dapat. Once again, di meant na maging comedy 'to...yun yung pinaka nakakatawa dun. Enjoy!

Sleepy Head

2006-05-08T11:45:00.000-10:00

If you saw in my last entry that Supernatural premiered the other day on AXN, yup, that's right. Pero siyempre tinulugan ko. And I don't think I can catch a replay on that pilot. So hopefully, I'll be able to watch the second episode. Pa kwento nalang ako. The Scholar premiered last night on StarWorld. Siyempre di ko din napanood... :)
We went to my lola's "Pa-siyam" yesterday. I was really hesitant. Kasi I travel na nga everyday then ngayon pati sunday pa. But I guess I had no choice. Pero that's ok naman . I'm glad I came. Happy naman to see my relatives especially my cousins. Sarap pa ng food, so yun! But were supposed to go nga early. As in we're just supposed to drop the food and go after a while. Then medyo late na kami nakarating dun, then may iintayin pa, then gabi na. Yun na! I have my exams kasi today, early today. So we left past 930 na ata yun. So na miss ko na yung primetime nung Scholar. Sabi ko i'll just catch the replay at past midnight. And because i'm extremely tired, I decided to miss it na rin. So after just 4 hours of sleep I had to wake up for school.
Just found out that I have to go to shool for a couple of days pa... Kala ko it will end more or less on May 17 para mga 1 month lang. Di pala. Sad.
Anyway, the bonus part is I don't have my second subject today. But have to go to church for that Parish Exposure ewan. Wala naman akong magawa dun. Atleast 3 visits nalang and i'm off the duty.

Wowow, where are you?

2006-05-04T11:59:00.000-10:00

I miss wowow. I know what you're thinking. Especially those who watches it at 12mn at weekends. I know, it's my classmates favourite topic.
I know it has a reputation for showing full cuts of movies, not to mention their very own Japanese flicks. Ok, for those who are not aware, it is a cable channel from Japan.
Everyone at home misses Wowow. Marami din naman siyang ok na movies. Pag na tripan nilang mag marathon (i.e. Tom Hanks Marathon) eh sawa ka from morning til night. I miss their english movie trailers where they keep on repeating their own translation of the title (example, Speed would be...$%$!TRAMAOHKAISSSHHHHPEEEEED@#$!!!) and even before they show the trailers you will hear a girl's voice saying...Movies! (pronounced as MOOOOO-ViS!)
And the all time favourite is their interviews on some well-known Holywood directors and actors. By the end of the interview they will ask about his/her "MOTTO", it is so funny. But once na umulan, expect na mawawala na, ganyan yata ka illegal ang wowow samen eh.

>>>>>Supernatural premieres tonight on AXN!

It's May 1st. Labor day. So far I think it's pretty peaceful, maybe that's because I haven't watch any news. But I'm pretty sure what happened today. Riots and Rallies, I guess.

Still thankful though, no classes eh... Sana more bakasyon pa sana. Though i enjoy schooling I don't fully enjoy the 2 subjects I'm taking this summer. Wala lang. Medyo may pagka boring. I'm really looking forward to finishing it asap.

Anyway, long time no post, as usual. I always manage to open my account and I'm always thinking of the things that I can/want to put here, but once I'm in the posting window, it always end up sa -sige next time nalang-because of many reasons, not just plainly of procrastination or being tamad. So speaking abaout next time, i'll post more worthy posts nect time maybe tomorrow, I'll tell y'all about... anu nga ba... maybe my lola's wake last weekend. Sad.
So, school nanaman tomorrow... Atleast one subject lang, cause I'm expected to have my "parish exposure" tomorrow but i haven't even talk to our parish priest eh! Then I have some errands to do after my classes tomorrow in Makati.
That's all muna for now.
P.S. I just saw Walk the Line earlier, and i liked it a lot. Maybe i'll enter a Movie Check on it tom.

Back to school...for a month or so

2006-04-18T01:51:00.000-10:00

Sign how my holy week was... I labeled the Pringles "Exclusively for Elizabethtown"

Yesterday was not that sweet. I came to school, slightly excited and slightly anxious. But something happened which in some ways really spoiled my day...
I came to schhol unexpectedly early, after 10 minutes, I'm still early, which did'nt change after 15 or 20 minutes. It was incredibly boring just to find out that there's a possibility that my 1st subject is DISSOLVED...
I'm still disappointed... But in the bright side, I can sleep 30 minutes more, which is equal to nothing basically.
Anyway, i'll really miss how relaxed I was during my "free days"

P.S. Im sorry if this is completely nonsense... I just have to make an entry...even if it is a bad one..

I was really excited about this hit ever since I learned about it. That's why we were so excited when StarWorld started to air it.
After watching the pilot, we were talking how fun it would be to have a complete first season in DVD. Two days after I was holding the first season boxed set on my way home. And that my fiends, is the sign how our holy week would be. So, that's it... we spent a great holy week watching it with some movies on the side. It is REALLY GOOD!!! Definitely two thumbs up!

It is addictive. And now that were finished with the first season, we are still obssesing over it! Hopefully the COMPLETE second season is on its way, ASAP!

Kamusta naman???

2006-04-09T08:07:00.000-10:00

Summer so far is great, (SLEEP, EAT, TV, EAT, SLEEP, TV, EAT- it goes on and on!) But I'm really disappointed that I wasn't able to get the summer job offering due to my class schedule for this summer... Sayang talaga! Biruin mo talaga when the things that i will do on the job was explained to me, I was excited already, then...OOOPS! May summer classes ako! Patay! And mas nakakalungkot pa everytime I have to think of my classes which starts next week. But on a positive note eh one month lang naman siya so ok na rin and patience lang! I have to take some subjects kasi this summer, wala pa naman akong bagsak talagang kailangan ko lang i-take..Bad trip lang because I have to wake up really early cause my classes starts at 8 and may mga gagawin daw this coming month sa SLEX, so good luck na lang, wake up early and pray so the traffic jam won't keep me from going to school on time... But as I've said eh one month lang naman...
Summer so far is great but I have a feeling that there's a big possibility that it can be a lot better... Uyyyy! Anu yun?!

The Regular Blogger

2006-04-09T07:55:00.001-10:00

Wow, I can't believe that I just made up my mind that I, will be blogging regularly (????? I dont think that's possible)... I was really hesitant to do this, but it is a good excuse to write kahit papano... hehehe.
I just erased my previous posts (and yes, one by one kaya lakas sa patience to')
Though it doesn't feel 100% right because it is still some effort, I made the decision to delete all of them because of personal reasons-parang nakakahiya yung mga yun eh... Hehehe... Gusto ko na kasi talaga ayusin ang pag bblog....
Though I still can'y believe that I am a blogger.... (In denial parin) Di naman kasi karamihan ang kilala ko na dinidibdib ang blogging kaya siguro...
Anyway, i will find time to blog as much as possible starting now. Like ngayon, I'm a bit dizzy and everyone's sleeping already.
