hero-in

The youth of the 70s and 80s have suffered so much compared to the youth of today. They have experienced so much oppression that they needed to find their way out to breath fresh air.. But despite their fight for a good cause, the country is still struggling today, because of all the social injustices that still exist. The phil was a *shinning star 40 years ago, but its brilliance faded and it turned into a "falling star.

In this generation, some has decided to become the "Bonifacio" kind of hero, the katipunero who would dare shed blood. In other words, there are protesters of this age who would rally down the streets, rebel against the government or plan coup attempts.

On the other hand, there is also the "Rizal" kind of hero who believes that the pen is mightier than the sword.He believes that with education he can make a difference. He is the kind of person with compassion and intelligence.

There are so many ways that the "kabataan" of this age are expressing their views. There are some who would engage in written arguments, debate, rallies etc...

Pls baby boomers, dont compare your thought to the gen-x and gen-y ;) hehe...
You see the means of communication was limited compared today. We all have radios, television, cellphones, email adds, friendster/myspace accounts that makes our world flat. It is easy for us to reach out to everyone not just in the phil but around the globe to bring our message...

Innevitable Fact of Life: Everyone Will Get Older Soon...

I was in class that day, but all i did was answer calls and reply to sms. My phone memory was jam packed with greetings. Next, I had to recharge my cellphone twice. I couldnt even concentrate in class... lol.

My college classmates came that night and some close friends and relatives too. We had dinner, a few sweets and colds and some drinx. It was sort of a reunion for my class. In a few months time some of them would be miles and miles away. Only time can tell. We are not getting younger... awww... (look who is talking) lol. But its just age, im always young at heart.

To my NOD friends, really it would have been fun seeing you guys.. hahaha..

To those who greeted me, thank you so much that was sweet. You add color to my life.

I hope this year of the rat will bring forth prosperity ;-)

On High

Like flipping open the pages of a new magazine. He came at the most unexpected turn of my life. So the first page begins with colorful pictures that paints a smile across my face. I was amazed at how things were turning out. But surprisingly, i found an attachment every day that i can't help. Every day, i spent overnights trying to decipher the vague message that every page brings. I have once said, i would never get involved in such facade but my defenses failed me. And so i found a new quest that is really not me. I have called it my addiction. The hardest part is the withdrawal syndrome. But like every magazine, it has a last page. And every story has an ending. ;-)

Year End

2007 was wild crazy and unpredictable. I always loose track of time.
But, good bye 2007 and the back lags that goes with it.

To those whom i just met this year, am glad i met you guys! Your existence somehow changed my life. Thanks.

To those whose friendship never fades, our friendship will be a stuff of legend engraved in my heart forever. I miss you guys.

To those whom i have hurt in whatever ways. I am SORRY. peace na tayo!

To those who used to be my friend but for some reasons just cant stay. You made a difference in my life in ways you didnt know. Thanks for being part of my life.

Hellow 2008... I'm READY!...

its a badddd sign

i have been procrastinating for the last month and that is a very verrrrrrrrry bad sign!

I spent too much time on the net and i accomplish very little during the day. My Research paper that took me a whole semester to accomplish couldnt even be done on time... and that sux big time! Man, Im an adict. But now i want to grab my life back! Wahh!.... Maybe next week i can plan for my career. Take the next leap. PASS my exams and move on.

Excruciating Pleasure

Geez that test 3 was brain hemorrhaging...
others said it was test 5

Denial: shet! this cant be difficult!
Anger: arrgh! OR!
Bargain: Wahhh..
Depression- google search
Acceptance- HHwWatever!

We hit mcdo right after the last test and debated on all the possible answers. At least i know i can defend myself from the debilitating arguments for more than an hour. Although, Im still not sure about the diet issue of T and A. Nevertheless, there is the internet - my ever loyal source of information and updates. So i googled the answer to every question i can remember. A little satisfied with what i got yet i still wanted to get involve in an argument. Therese was silent... and Marti was irate. There wasnt anything to do but wait for the final answer.

The Waiting... the most dreaded part of my life. I hate waiting. Id rather come in late than wait. But now i have no choice. I have to wait. It doesnt make sense at all to me but im not in my right mind to make sense at all. Everyone had to wait for the result. And i found out that staying at home was a difficult task. But thanx to my comrades for the afternoon jogs, the sunset viewing, the badminton evenings and the night outs... it made my 2nd vacation colorful.

Back to school. I missed it unintentionally but now i am back deliberately. Like i said, staying at home to do all the waiting was more difficult than reading a pile of journals in the library. I can stay online all night and not feel drained the next day. But of course, thanx to Centrum. It backed me up all the way. There's just always something to do... school papers, seminars and of course.. the hangout scheds.

Did i make the right move?! I should have taken the entire test and not just A PART of it. So sometimes i am thinking whether i did the right thing. I had all the books i needed in the first place... even the latest community book which i had carried from cebu to my vacay destination. It was never even opened. So, had i not taken my vacay, i would have whole heartedly taken the entire test which was really my plan. But its over now- i have passed. I deviated from my own plans after successfully convincing my friends to take the entire test. There wasnt much time to review. I had 3 weeks utmost and my time was running fast. I felt i wasnt ready to be battered by another exam but there wasnt any choice. When i got back home, i wasnt even registered to take the board until it was almost deadline.. Finally, my decision became final. After selling the books that will make me take 1-5, i finally found my focus.

Library seemed to be the second home we got. I spend 4 hours utmost. The rest of my mates can hang in there for the entire day. Moreover, all the books were there; all the information we had were right before us. Except of course, we do not have reviewers who make nasty jokes and nonsensical remarks. All we got is peer... and PEER PRESSURE is a good thing... despite that we slip off to watch movies in the cinema at least once a week. But even the review questionares were brought in the cinema.. which is pathetic really. But it sure worked for us... at least we produced a 10th placer. Congratulations BSN-A LibTeam and to all my batchmates..

McRestRoom

I was with friends at a local McDonalds outlet eating and chatting for more than an hour. When my friend John stood up and went to the restroom.... He came back and said he couldn't find the room. Then Ellery went to venture for the restroom himself. He did his thing (hahaha) and came back. John again stood up and went to seek the rest room himself.
We continued chatting around our square table with empty french fries boxes. On the other hand, Mark was as usual, the nutty person that he is- making fun of our loloh Ivan. And the two were retrogressing...

When we were about to leave, i excused myself, asked for the rest room directions from the guys and went to find it myself. I saw the restroom label and i knew it was the restroom area. The restroom area was unisex. There was no doorknob so i pushed the door forward. The sight behind the door opened up to the customers eating behind where i stood and they all started laughing. The man stood behind the unrinals and.... u knw... he he... He looked back surprised and saw the people staring at him laughing... Seeing him embarassed, I rushed back to my seat with my friends and tried to contain my laughter... I told them what happened.. and laughter burst out again.


Lesson of the Day: Do not forget to Lock the DOoR!

Summer 2007: Get Away part1

From smooth flight down to long bumpy rides, I had a good time. The weather was as usual unpredictable. Rain pours in from time to time despite that it is summer. But still, the sceneries were captivating and sitting back at home for a day would be a crime. I was hoping i can finish up one volume of Medsurg Brunner book for my entire trip but i only managed to flip a few pages and couldn't even remember what it was all about. So after my vacay, i felt a little guilty.

I left my friends behind but i met really good people during my trip. I was with my family- mom, dad, sister and except for my brother who was left back home for summer classes. Our new friends would invite us over for dinner or for little excursions around town. It was a small town actually and impossible for you to get lost for as long as you kno w how to read and you know where you live. We stayed near the beach in Puerto and it was really cold at night and warm in the mornings. But the people are always warm and welcoming. They have been accostomed to bakasyonistas from Filipinos alike to foreigners.

Steep Alley

Forrest Gump would say, "life is like a box of chocolate, you'll never know what you'll get."

The laughters and smiles we shared were once so real yet so superficial.

I was not blind. I was just narrowed focus but i was Loyal. I dont regret the good times we shared. It's all part of my memory now.

In the first place it wasnt my typical kind of relationship.I knew from the start that it wont last or maybe i already had that odd feeling. I accept that some things just dont turn out the way it should be or let me say, some things are not meant to be.

The feeling was right but the situation was not.


Stucked up in a mutual inpatience. The gap in between was never filled. And no one took the first step. Blameeee or blame-u.. doesnt matter now.

If you thought that i would never change then you're wrong. Only fools dont change. So I tell you, if you cant accept me at my worst then you dont deserve me at my best.


Not everyone would understand and i wont start explaining myself to people around me who keeps on asking how its been.

I got uneasy when people started talking nasty stuff about me behind my back which is nowhere near the truth. But whats more hurtful is to know that the people who i trust and consider my friends are the ones hitting me at the back. But that is in the past now. I was told, that if im not worth anything then people wont bother to talk about me. I even thank those people for making my life colorful and fruitful.

spring to style

Fashion Up this Summer

Mix and match retro styles or metallic colors

and dont be afraid to stand out.

Wear your bumble bee sunglasses or

that big hat or that polkadot hairband.






Own a pair of Chux and a pair of slippers.

But keep those Wedged Footwears nearby.

Either have a humongous earings or

a big beaded necklace dangling on your neck.



Groovy Baby! Party when its HOT!

Keeping It Light

I have a tip for all of you. hehe..

The best way to keep your profile views

and friends list to a minimum

is to put youtube videos, slide shows

and imeem music clips on your page.

Majority of your friend-sters or my-spacers

wouldnt wait around till your

page download files complete

before they will message you or add you to their list.

If you wish to race up your friends-list to

hundreds and hundreds,

keep your page light.

On the Fence

i stare blankly in space, undecided on what to do next.

i know i have a lot to accomplish but i cant figure out what to do first.

when i look at my right side, i see the sharpened pencil waiting to be used and the volume of papers on my desk that needs to be read.

I see the piles of cd which i promised to watch but never even attempted to play on tv.

I sat on my computer trying to innovate and make my brains useful but all i read is trash and i cant even decipher what all the cybercodes mean on the web pages.

I end up writing, oh i mean typing. And i cant even get the right words that i want to say.

I listen to music. The hard rock just freaks my brain out.

Instrumental music is what im playing now.

I couldn't think better. What i need is.... sweets- yes chocolates, my medication for life.

A Matter of Perspective

Some people will complain because roses have thorns, while others will rejoice because thorns have roses...

In my lifetime, some people will like me while some will hate me. I can not please everybody. If i will, i am allowing myself to become frustrated from expectations (by others) and i wouldnt like it. I've got so much to live for and so much to enjoy.

To live life to the fullest one should have the right ATTITUDE. And it was reminded to me in one conference that i have attended to...

People with closed minds only see what they wish to see. If its black then its black.... and always BLACK.... and there are no gray matters in their brain. They are dumb people who have a tiny brain but sensitive with their emotions.



Life is homeostasis. We sometimes go up and we sometimes go down. The little spice in our life could mean a lesson learned or a blessing in disguise. We thrive in balance but i live in a world where its fair to be unfair...When you are fat, people will tell you to slim down. But when your slim, people will tell you to gain some weight. Some people will praise you while some people will talk negatively about you. But look at the bright side, if they don't talk about you, then you are nada. You don't exist at all.

We are in a kaleidoscope. There is a song to it actually.... "Every color, every hue, is represented by me and you...." I dont know if you've heard about it by Francis M. Anyway, if you cant love other people, at least try not to hurt them. And, whats is important is how you see yourself and not how others try to make you up for their own expectations. Do not live by other's standard, be the standard!

Season of ySmiles

It’s Christmas and you’re feeling down
I’m gonna pass the smile around
It’s gonna bring me closer to you

One smile will take away your frown
One smile will turn your day around
This season, there’s no time to be blue

Don’t forget to wear a smile
You’ll never know who’s smiling back at you

Every time I see you
I hear there’s something that’ll make you smile
So kiss me if you want to
Don’t you worry if we’re apart
I hope this season
Will be a reason enough to make you smile

This Christmas, if you’re all alone
One smile will make you feel at home
I wanna bring you closer to me

One smile will make the season shine
This time, I wanna make you mine
I wanna spend this season with you

Every time I see you

thiscember

Helping others is one of the best ways to spend christmas..
there are always good friends and family who would be there for thee to love and share all those happy experience

Loving words from people are the greatest gift i have received and the greatest gift i have given is touching people's lives and making a difference.

Even a simple smile is worth a thousand mile.

I thank all of thee for sharing those warm smiles.

i have learned that life is too short to cry over spilled milk..
the world doesnt stop.. my life would not stop either unless my heart cease to beat.

until my heart continues to beat, i will never cease to love!

i lurv forums. except this one forum which i wont be mentioning hehe...

i am banned for a couple of months because i asked the mod to share her sources. And since she can not rebutt my statements and can not link any evidence to her own arguments... all my posts had to be approved by them before it gets posted. how nice...
i didnt break any rules. i didnt use any foul words nor did i quoted anyone...
but i was banned... for what?! asking link and proving my points?! geez!
I asked them to point to me where i have violated the terms and conditions of the site.. and the reply was just... ur penalty will be augmented because u are arguing with the mod. one plus one.
it doesnt make sense at all. its supposed to be a place for discussion.... but i can't help meeting people with pea brains..

this is the web... u cant threaten people...lol. anyone can do anything...

i can still create another account or change IP... hehe...

Subic R.ape Impression

"Smith obviously had no respect for Suzette because she didnt have any respect for herself. "

She has NO strings attached that night and its like she can go out with anyone she likes...
She can get herself drunk to the point of not even remembering her way home.

I cant blame some Marines and witnesses who thinks she's a prostitute
because that is the impression she is giving..
As the saying goes, action speaks louder than words...
They saw her sitting on his lap... caressing, hugging and kissing.. and drinking with them.
She just gave Smith the impression that she's game for anything...

She has given the ticket to the crime and he grabbed the chance.
So Both of them should answer for their acts

=============================================


Since Smith is found guilty.. it is imperative that he face the decision of the court.

As for Nicole.. since she has plans of goin abroad...

she should be more cautious of her behavior next time she deals with strangers in a strange place..

coz she might send the wrong signals again.

She cant blame other people for scrutinizing her or Smith or the decision of the court because

this story has generated public interest.. But with this story, there is a lesson learned ♥

Verdict: Subic R.ape

smith and nicole deserves a fair trial.

but i noticed that people were already condemning Smith and Nicole even before the verdict came out

Even if Smith is American, he still should go through due process of law to defend himself.

And whether Nicole is a prostitute or not, she still can be raped.

Smith was found guilty.. he should face the consequences of this trial...

=========================

as the saying goes:

seek and ye shall find..

go to some strange land

enter a bar

meet strangers

get yourself drunk

and the next time you know it,

you're lying on the floor

dizzy and weak

without any knowledge of what happened to you.

congratulations! ♥

PACMAN the modern Pinoy hero?!

He is known to many as Pacman, grew up in General Santos City and has known boxing as early as age 12. His lack of formal education did not hinder him from becoming a champion. He blew the face of "El Terible" in a knockout before the third round ended and made him world-class champ!

The question remains, "Is Manny Pacquiao the modern day hero of the Filipino peole?!"

This has become a controversial issue especially after Manila's mayor Atienza has opted to erect a statue at Baywalk in honor of the boxing icon who has defeated the hall of famer- El Terible. Some speculates that politicians are riding over his popularity and are trying to convince him to get into politics.

He has the most number of commercials on Philippine television. And he endorses one the biggest companies- Nike, McDonalds, etc... The Philippine crime rates has declined during the fight. Everybody with television sets waited for the turn of events. Even Pinoys abroad were excited to see the fight of the year and over 10,000 tickets were sold out.

He is one of the best fighters of his time. He's got the endurance, speed, skills, intelligence, self-discipline and professionalism. Not to forget, he is also a singing boxer. Who in the Philippines didnt hear "para sayo ang laban na 'to?" Its been playing almost every hour in radios and tv commercials. When you turn on the TV, expect that every 10 minutes, Manny's face will pop out. All the news stories were nothing but his homecoming and most commercials are all his. In other words, this celebrity is the hottest person in the Philippines today. But how long can he keep his aura? Will he still be the same Pacman if he decides to join in polics?Will he maintain his title?! And the most important question, does he deserve the title "Philippine Hero" ?
