my ship moves forward...

2011-09-05T17:41:00.003+08:00

I really think it's about time I move on...ALONE...

I finally took you off my FB, and I feel it's better that way so I won't see you online and won't be tempted again to send you a message. It usually starts with a simple hello and the next thing I see is that you and I are together again...this time I hope things will be different...

The last four months was filled with mostly joy and a very few yet enormous amount of pain and headache...I have to admit that I still have the courage and strength to give what we have another chance, there is still so much hope that we can fix all this mess...but the question is, do I see a bright future ahead of us? do I see that light at the end of the tunnel? my answer is no...all I see are trouble, heartaches and fights...so it's best to stop while I still can..while we still can...

As I always say at the end of anything I do...Thank you....thanks for the warm hugs and wonderful kisses...for a short while you took care of me and you made me feel special...you made the distance between us never an obstacle...so sad that things did not work out...

I have always been a believer of second chances, yet what we had are more than second chances...quota na tayo kaya tama na :) at sana wag ka na bumalik, because I'm sure if you ever come back I would be helpless and again I will just give you a hug and make things OK...

I'm moving on ALONE...but I wish you the best...at this moment you are still the most important human being in my heart other than my family, so I can't see you just yet...maybe someday soon when I'm able to move on, I could look at you and smile and remember that once you were apart of my dreams...few months ago I prayed that God will allow us to be together for the longest time...now I hope it won't happen anymore....there's just no chance for us...take care....

did i got lost????

2011-09-02T00:42:00.003+08:00

I can't believe it's been over a year since I last wrote an entry in my blog...I don't know why I stopped I guess I got tired...wala namang nagco-comment LOLZ!

But anyways, I decided to write again and hopefully for good.

Basically, the main reason I think I stopped blogging is that I was hurt and then was able to move on. Reading on my last entry, it was really full of pain, but looking back now that I'm better...I can smile and realize how silly I was at that time, parang tanga lang hahahaha!

I was really hurt last year and felt like crying every night, good thing my faith never failed to comfort me and helped me moved on...and now I'm finally good friends with that someone na iniyakan ko ng todong-todo...which is obviously a good thing....

At heto na nga, I met someone again...arggghhhh!!! cycy di ka na nagtanda...

As usual..kilig nung bago pa, always happy always smiling kahit nag-iisa...then reality set in and the same story happened again...you know someone once told me that "the same thing will happen to us over and over again, until we have learned our lessons well", this makes me think na ganun ba ako katanga? ganun ba katigas ang ulo ko at paulit-ulit nalang to????

Same story, I met someone...I was extraordinarily happy, akala ko sha na, and I could not think the whole thing was happening...until we started fighting and things are changing slowly...obviously not for the better...

Hanggang kelan ba pwedeng magpakatanga? when do we say enough? and how do we let go of someone or of a relationship that's no longer making us happy? giving us stress instead of happiness....you know in your heart that things are no longer going to be OK but you still love the person and you don't want to loose this person yet...pano yun?

At pano ba magalit ng totoo sa taong mahal mo? that situation when you are so furious but when you see this special person, everything melts away...

I feel like I need to end this relationship now, pero paano? lalo na kung nakikita mo na at nakakalimutan mo na naman lahat ng plano mo....

nag-iisa

2010-08-19T23:50:00.002+08:00

this time i'm gonna say i'm sad because i now feel ok...

finally, a 3 and a half year relationship had ended...

i've always knew that we were falling apart, it was just a question of when....and then 3 months ago, it happened...finally said our final goodbye...

it's over...the arguments, the fighting and cursing and yelling and hurting each other is over....

wala na ding katabi sa pagtulog, kasabay sa pagkain, kausap sa gabi, kayakap....wala ng magluluto ng masarap na adobo...wala ng maga-alaga when i'm sick....

but that's life, some good things never last so they say...

it was so painful that i cried everynight, but i knew in my heart that it was one of the hardest yet the best decision i have ever made...and this time wala na ding balikang mangyayari, this is the curtain call...

no more "how are you texts"...or at least not at this time cuz we both need to heal before we can see each other and be friends...

ok na ako, im done with the crying...i could no longer smell her scent in my pillows, in my blanket and in my room...tapos na akong umiyak...

3 months ago...i thought my world was over, but now i am confident that there's something new and something better waiting ahead...

i just wanna say thank you, thank you and more thank you...for making me feel special, for making me feel important, for making me feel loved...

and to your mom, for treating me like her own son :) i will always pray for your happiness...bye ga....im letting you go...im forgetting you...im moving on....i still love you but sad to say it's goodbye...

akala ko, i thought, abi naku!

2010-06-10T23:54:00.004+08:00

I've always thought of myself as a fighter. Pain, heartaches, abuses and endless fraustrations nourished the tiger in my soul. Sometimes I really wish it was the other way around, sometimes I wish I grew up with lots of love and care and kisses and hugs, but no, it was tough, it was really hard....and now here I am..with walls, with certain coldness, and with an overwhelming will to always survive...

tell me...is this bad?

I still cry...when I see children suffer, when I see mother's weeping...it melts my heart...

I still would like to think that I have a good heart, somewhere deep in the darkest corner of my soul is still an innocent child, longing for affection...the kind of affection that lasts...

But thing that I have always wished for seems so elusive...I'm getting old and I'm getting tired... where are you?

But being a tiger that I am, giving-up is never an option...I always choose to move on and in some way be happy, at least for a while if not forever...

I still believe that soon I'll get there, where ever is that place I wanna be, I will get there....and I'm gonna smile and say I made it, I did it, I finally kicked their asses....

BAD...REALLY BAD....

2010-04-25T10:13:00.003+08:00

Things are really nasty nowadays. I have been betrayed again, by someone who had betrayed me plenty of times before. You may I ask how stupid I am? for allowing this person deceive and hurt me over and over again. But what can I do? he is my father...

Sometimes, in a single split of a second, I wish we Filipinos have the culture of the Americans, where they are not "obliged" so see their parents or their dads everytime. I can choose not to deal with him every single day, but that is not the case for me. I have been brought-up in a traditional close-knit family where we take care of each other no matter what, specially that I'm the only child.

He hurt me and my mom before when we found out he was having an affair with someone close to our family, a girl who was living with my aunt, poor girl tsk.. ruined her life for an irresponsible married man....he did it again several times, with a family friend, a co-workers wife, a neighbor, a close friend's gf...horrible i know...

But what hurts me most is when betrayal happens because of money..I mean come on we're family and I'm your son and it's just fucking money!!!! seems like he is addicted to money, he wants lots of it if not all of it and he's gonna fight for it, WTF!!!!! money is just a peace of paper to help us through our daily lives...it's not everything...but he does not know that for sure....

And now he's sick again, and just like before when everything is not good about his health, he comes home to us, to ask for help, to ask for care...and my mom a martyr, unbelievably takes care of him with all her heart, and secretly just cry over her pain, over the kind of life that she has...and that's the part that i hate so very much!!!! I have told my mom many many times, there is always a CHOICE, which she say she doesn't because she's kinda old now... there is a choice to just walk away and leave and find something better, find something new, something that will not give her pain and agony and sleepless nights, something that would no longer put lonely tears in her eyes....but she always, as ever choose to stay...

My dad is partly the reason why I left home and moved to the big city, life in the province could be simple but I wanted more for myself and my family and I know it's hard to leave in the same roof with my dad...

I believe I still love my father, he is my father after all..it's his ways that I condemn. I pray that tomorrow or next week or next month or next year he'd change but deep in my heart I'm hopeless, I really doubt that change will still happen...I've always been a believer of hope and prayers...but with him, I'm really uncertain. I asked God for forgiveness for thinking and feeling this way, but as I said, what can I do?

why? i dont know....

2010-03-01T01:07:00.002+08:00

I have always asked that question..why? yet I have not found out the answer, and I don't think I ever will...not until I leave this world and see God, by then I can ask him....

People by nature always want more, we are never contented with whatever we have. We still crave for more....and it's sad that once in a while, even if we have the things we desire, we still get lonely. Sometimes we get lonely for no reasons at all....

There are some moments in my life where I wished I never got old, it is sometimes better to stay young, a child...because a child can always appreciate the simple things in life...a child never complains about the hurtful things in life....a child can just sleep it off...a child can just pick-up his toy and smile...a child can always ease burdens by just a hug from his mother....but I am no longer a child, I grew up....

I grew up seeing things in a different way, I saw people got hurt horribly...I saw my mom crying...I saw my world collapse, I saw my dreams shattered...and I couldn't do a thing...but cry....

But then I learned to pray and have faith... faith that things would somehow be better tomorrow... I am uncertain, but there is always that little spark of hope out there....

Now, I want to stop wishing, because I am scared that I might get those wishes...and realize that those wishes are beyond my understanding...I just hope...hope that things will be lighter...that I'd always be able to make it and smile.....

finding someone in cebu...

2009-11-28T01:13:00.005+08:00

my journey continues....

sometimes i get lonely for no reasons at all, but i guess that's part of me already, i have this tendency to miss people and sometimes i don't even know who i am missing...

right now i am in the queen city of the south, for a short vacation and to see and find some long lost friends. as i have told everyone, cebu will always be a home to me, will always be special and i will always come back to this wonderful city. i was educated here, education in all aspects of life...i have countless of wonderful memories and great friends here who have been a part and in some ways touched my life...and now i'm back here again...even just for a while...

for the first 2 days i already saw some friends and tomorrow i will go and find another special woman whom i have been missing for years now, she is just a friend...a sister...

or maybe i am also here to look and meet new faces, i thought i found one last year but when i came back i realized i was wrong...it's alright i still have 2 more days to look around...

i feel kinda tired lately, tired in the sense that i wanna settle down with one person and enjoy life together but i'm also kinda certain that it will not happen soon but again i wish i am wrong...

i am alone in my hotel room, kinda lonely that is why i chose to spend time here in the lobby with my notebook...hoping to exaust myself and get upstairs to lay on my bed and sleep and wake-up tomorrow and see new faces, or a new face that would stay for good...a new face that would bring joy, a new face that would put this turbulent life at ease...with this one, i wish i am right...

but no matter what, i will always move on...i know there's so much things out there for me to explore...more lives to touch...more backs to tap...if you're reading this please wish me luck...i am just human and sometimes i get desperate and hopeless but i know i shouldn't give up...

i have to move on.....and smile....

Why I must vote for Noy!

2009-10-02T15:45:00.003+08:00

It's not a question but a statement.

It's not because he is the son of a man who died for the country, who changed the lives of the millions of Filipinos, nor his mother lived for the sake of Democracy. Not even because he is the brother of Kris who's every statement becomes the talk of every single household in this country... but because I see the chance of change, of integrity or passion and love for fellowmen.

The Aquino's have been an inspiration to all of the Filipinos. Ever since Ninoy was murdered by you know who, the people have adopted Cory and her kids as their own family, and they did the same. What I love about this family is that they treat all of us as part of them, they shared their love with us. I will never forget each time Kris makes big decisions, she never forgets to ask permission, understanding and advise from all of us her family, or at least she will always let us know that she is about to make a big step in her life.

When Noy was offered the chance to run as the President, he expectedly did not say Yes right away. In my opinion, saying Yes quickly would create doubt. Only a greedy person would immediately grab the change to be the most powerful man in the country. Instead, Noy was humbled, he considered every one's opinion, his family, the people, his party and God. I know in my heart that he made the right decision, it wasn't easy, it wasn't quick because there are many sacrifices including the selfless act of Mar Rojas (whom I'd be voting as well). When people and God gave you the blessing, then no one can stop you from doing the right thing. Nobody can beat the power of the righteous.

Let us all take a look around. The other party is choosing their candidates in the traditional dirty way of who's got the money, the connections and the favor they can give back. Damn them!!!! they will not win I promise you Noy!!! We will not let them win!!! and besides who will win when each and everyone of them wants to be the president? plus the one choosing her candidate does not seem to want to leave her post??? Can you imagine what kind of administration they can run?

We now have this chance to have a different kind of governance...A new breed of politicians...New visions for our country. Please let us not waste this because this chance may not come again.

I will not only vote for Noy, I will campaign for him and Mar. It will be a campaign not just for Noy to be the President but a campaign for a brighter Philippines.

working and having fun

2009-08-13T00:34:00.004+08:00

I never thought working could be this fun :)

After I quit my job in an american company (thanks to the US recession) I decided to look for a homebased work and a friend suggested Odesk.com. Everything was tricky at first because you have to take the so called "readiness test" before you can proceed to apply. I did pass that test after taking it several times, well only 5 times lolz! I mean, the answers are all there but I was tired of reading all those things. Anyways I passed and took some other tests to make my profile more attractive. And then BINGO!!! I found myself some work, oh yeah 3 jobs actually, one regular job and 2 part-time jobs.

The first one is kinda noble so to speak...I was hired by a Norwegian Non-Profit Organization called Taransvar and their main purpose is to alleviate world poverty. See? I'm now an agent for helping and uplifting the poor. My job is to call companies in South Africa (the nicest people I have ever dealt with, EVER!!!!) and to sell communication devices like cordless phone connections with internet access. It's actually a new project, so we are still in the process of testing the market.

The second one is a part-time job with an Indian Company called SB Corp and I write articles for web content. Money is not actually big but it's just a part-time work and I am being trained to be a good writer for websites lolz!

The third one is so cool for me and I love doing it. My employer is a British guy who operates a website about Asian Movies, Actors and other news. I contribute articles, reviews and other things. So what I do is just watch asian movies and write about them and then earn something, isn't that cool?

Do check the site at www.asianmoviepulse.com, you can write comments or send messages too.

Ciao!

back on my feet

2009-08-07T19:02:00.006+08:00

I'm finally back in the City...I have not been blogging for a while because of lots of things..

First...I was out job hunting, after I quit my job in Ortigas Center, lots of things have been difficult. I tried working in an American Company somewhere in Makati but things did not work out fine. The travel going there is very exhausting, I live in Caloocan and Makati is such a far away place and I need to ride a tricyle, then LRT then a jeepney to go there (Taxi is out of the question because I can't afford to spend Php400 fare everyday)...Until I finally decided to work at home and thank God somebody created ODESK. Now, I have finally landed a job at the comfort of my own home. I have been hired by a Norwegian Non-Profit Organization and we sell Telecommunications and Internet Services to major cities in South Africa. The best thing with this is that part of the profit goes to charity, to help the less fortunate children in Africa, in someways, I feel a part of their mission...

Ok, but prior to that, of course I went home to my old and sleepy province of Samar....and I have some authentic promdi pictures here...

I have a cousin who owns a fish pond and I decided to fool around. I actually have lots of stupid pics but it's too silly to be posted here. Living in the province is such a pleasure, the simplicity is very much humbling. It's like, life there is so much easier and kinda slow...yet so unwicked, unlike the fast paced, selfish, wicked, chaotic life I live in the big city...

I also finally got to taste the native tinolang manok and sinaing sa palayok which was soooo yummy....and lastly, there's the pic of the piece of land where I am going to build my dream house. The land is almost on top of the mountain and overlooking the sea.

So there you go... that's the update...

Farewell Madam President...

2009-08-01T11:59:00.002+08:00

President Cory Aquino, the 11th and the first female President of the Philippines is dead.

For a lot of reasons I am sad and felt that it is my duty to write about how a wonderful human being she is...

The woman, a plain housewife who has been admired by the world for her courage after the assasination of her husband. She then became the President of the country after the peaceful 1986 Edsa Revolution. Even Time Magazine took interest of her charm and made her Woman of the Year for 1986.

Cory has since become the symbol of Peace and of Democracy and the people have always adored her even after her term as the president. Her opinion always mattered in the world of politics.

And now she's gone, our Cory Aquino is gone... in someways people are sad yet thankful that her pain is finally over, her suffering has ended and she is now at peace with God.

Maraming Maraming Salamat minamahal naming Cory...

For bringing back democracy, for inspiring us, for uniting the filipino people, for changing the lives of the millions of filipinos and for touching our lives. We will always love you, we will never forget you and you will forever be in the hearts of all the filipinos...

Rest in peace our Dear President...We know that God has already prepared a special place for you in heaven...

memories

2009-07-05T18:41:00.003+08:00

can either make you smile or cause you pain...

you smile when you think of the wonderful things in your past, those laughter, those friends, those places...and sometimes you wish you can go back in time and live it once again...

and sometimes it hurts, when you realize that it's all gone, it's in the past and no matter what you do you can never have it back... and the only thing left in your heart are the memories...memories that you remember each time you hear a song, or see a familiar place, or when you see those people that have been a part of your past.... then you walk down that lane, with a smile or with a tear....

i guess that best thing to do is still live it most, by then at least you have wonderful things in your heart...things that could make you more human, things that can trully define your life...

i'm not really sure why i'm writing this stuff at this time, maybe i'm missing things, lots of things.. but this is the least i can do, miss them...even if it hurts...life must go on so that i can make new wonderful memories again...

we just need to be strong and never give-up, life can be so much fun, it can be full of amazing things, nice friends...friends that can make us smile when the past visits us once in a while...

My New Job

2009-06-28T13:41:00.003+08:00

I am officially working again, I'm done with being a bum for a month and I have to admit that sometimes being a bum is so refreshing...after working at night for 4 years I trully missed sleeping at night and sleeping for over 8 hours sooooo cool!!!!

But I have to go back to reality that I need to survive in this tough and wicked city. Pano nalang ako mabubuhay, pano ang mga bisyo at mga gala lolz! Now, things are a bit different, the fact that my work is in Makati and I am staying in the North part of the metropolis is an exhausting journey, but as I said, I need to survive and survival needs a lot of sacrifice, so I'm giving this a shot.

Work is Ok, not as fabulous as my previous work but things are seem to be more relaxed as well, the company does not have much work force so I get to see and interact with almost everyone everyday. We only have a couple of Americans running the company, the manager and the owner and my new workmates seem friendly and I have not noticed anyone bitchy yet...

And yesterday morning, our manager thought that the people need some bonding or team building specially that they have added 26 people or so to the floor... And so we went bowling.... Unfortunately, it's been 13 years since I last played the sport, so my arms and entire body ached a lot (or baka sa edad ko din :)). I met some friends then, few guys from the team I was in...it was fun actually. I'm hoping to stay longer in this office and hopefully more cash so I can start building my dream house back in the province.

Wish me luck!

TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN

2009-06-24T19:06:00.003+08:00

I just got home from watching this movie, oh yes it's Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. I was too excited and decided to watch it on it's opening day, and all I can say is...

HAYYYUUPPPPP!!!!! AAASSSTTTIIIGGGGGG!!!!

MALUPEEEETTTT!!! IBAAANGGG KLAAASEEE!!!

IT WAS SO AWESOME!!!!

SO ALL OF YOU, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR... GO AHEAD AND EXPERIENCE THE POWER OF THE AUTOBOTS, THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP AND COURAGE...

AS WHAT OPTIMUS PRIME SAID.... LET'S ROLL!!!

UK

2009-06-17T12:21:00.008+08:00

Me and my cousins all went to UK yesteday..

Yes, UK...a.k.a Ukay-ukay... somewhere in Munumento. I went with them to find something cool, like vintage stuff that I can't find in the shopping malls or it would be damn expensive in some shops...and there you see pinag-tripan ko ang isang fur styled jacket lolz!!! First of all, it's really itchy, maybe because it needs thorough washing or maybe I'm not used of wearing something with feather like things or maybe it's just itchy... Anyways, I took a couple of pics of me wearing it just to check if I would look cool in it and I think I looked Ok, I thought of the people who will see me wearing that jacket when I take the bus or MRT lolz!~

Then I ended up buying this one at Php200, it's actually a good buy, kakarating lang daw ng stocks kaya mahal ng konti. I love the texture at talagang magagamit sa work hehehehe..

According to Kuyang Tindero there, the trick is go to Ukay-ukay when their new stocks have just arrived so you can really pick the very good ones, it would be kinda expensive but those are real good stuff. Then after two weeks their prices would slip a bit to encourage more customers but the items will be "pinagpilian na"...

Jologs na kung jologs but sometimes going to these places is fun, you can really check-out some cool outfits, out of this world designs at a very cheap price. You just have wash it real hard to get rid of that distinctive UK smell (oh yeah the smell that makes me sneeze to the highest level)

Whatchathink?

BDAY KO

2009-06-16T11:45:00.002+08:00

AYUN NA NGA!!!

It was my birthday yesterday and I'd like to thank all those who greeted me at sa mga gusto pang mag-greet, thanks..

It was fun and I got drunk on the eve of my birthday, I was with my cousins in Mandaluyong then on D'Day, I was with my family of course, we cooked some food and ate together. The funny thing is that I don't feel any older, maybe it's true that Geminis don't get old, they will always be young LOLZ!!!

And of course I got the best gift this time, I got hired. Yes, I have a new job already and I will be starting on June 23 and it will be in Makati. Yup, kinda hard cuz I'm staying in Caloocan and will be working in Makati, but it's ok I know I can always find a way to enjoy and make the most of it.

Right now, I will continue on celebrating :)

Job Hunt

2009-06-11T03:10:00.002+08:00

My new mission in the coming two week? is to find a new job.

I have been jobless since I quit 3 weeks ago, I had my vacation already and it's about time to find a new thing to do to earn money and survive this city. It's tough to live in Manila when you're not earning anything because everything is so expensive, it's like the moment you step out of your door is an expense already and I can't afford to just spend and spend and not earn, I don't wanna dry out my savings...

It's 3:17 in the morning and I just got home from an interview with an american company in Makati, somewhere in Salcedo Village. The company's offer is quite reasonable plus a very good commission package, we are just waiting for their call if they are willing to give-in to our asking price (of course, established career and experience earns you the right to demand once in a while lolz). So hopefully by next week things will be finalize if me and my gang will be working there.

ANYWAYS, BIRTHDAY KO NA SA MONDAY JUNE 15...

I"m Back

2009-06-09T22:19:00.004+08:00

DAY 1, MARK & DINAH'S WEDDING

As I mentioned on my previous entry, I went to Cagayan de Oro for a few days to attend the wedding of my dear cousin Dinah. The wedding was pretty simple but happy and elegant. Simple because only families from both sides, relatives and close friends were invited to attend, Happy and Elegant because my cousin looked so pretty in her gown and the groom looked his best as well.

I arrived in Cagayan last Friday at almost 3pm, thanks to CebuPac though our flight was delayed and kinda scary because the weather isn't that good when I left, the plane was kinda shaky and as always, I'm scared of flying. When I arrived in Cagayan, the weather eventually changed, it was so humid out there and the getting a taxi was ridiculously expensive, they charged 250 pesos from the airport to the city (250 is the lowest possible price). Then I saw everyone, cousins, uncles, relatives and friends whom I haven't seen in 8 years, and the never ending "kumusta ka na?" goes....

Day 2 Iligan City

Right after the wedding we left Cagayan for Iligan City. I missed the place so much, the last time I was there was when my Aunt died and it was 2001, a lot of things has changed since I last visited, good thing it was peaceful already. A couple of months ago the city was bombed several times allegedly by Muslim Insurgents.

And of course as planned, we went swimming to Timoga Swimming Pools where the water was so inviting, so cold and so refreshing. The water from the pools came from the mountains and they have an overflowing supply so the water in the pools changes all the time, it just flows...I really wish we could have something like it here in Manila. Ansarap ng tubig as in sobra!!!!

Ok now, my next trip is in July and I'm going to the island of Samar.

The Boy in Striped Pyjamas

2009-06-03T00:42:00.002+08:00

I just finished watching this very touching movie "the boy in striped pyjamas"..

The story is set during World War 2. An innocent boy, the son of a Nazi Commander who befriends a jewish boy in a concentration camp. At first the boy thought the camp was a farm where other people live and where he could find friends to play with. The name of the boy is Bruno, a nice little man who is fund of adventure books and wants to be an explorer. At first he thought people in the farm are weird because they wear pyjamas all the time, until he met the jewish boy named Shmuel who enlightened him about the horrors of the camp.

Bruno always wonder why there was that odd smell coming from what he thought chimneys of the farm, little did he know that that smell came from the gas chambers where the Jews were being killed and burned. When Bruno's mother realized that it was a labor camp and that people are being slaughtered there, she decided to take the children away, Bruno along with her sister. But before that could happen, Bruno decided to visit Shmuel and help him find his missing father. He changes his clothes and wiggles under the fence and is now in the camp with Shmuel wearing same striped pyjamas that the prisoners wear.

Bruno comes to realise that the camp is completely the opposite of what he saw in the propaganda film and wants to return, but Shmuel encourages him to continue helping to find his father. While they look in Shmuel's hut a group of Nazi soldiers arrives and marches all those inside (including Bruno and Shmuel) to a low concrete building. The men and boys are made to undress, supposedly for a shower, packed together in a gas chamber, and killed.

When Bruno's parents realized he is missing, they run to the camp and try to find him. They find Bruno's clothes next to the hole under the fence. The Father runs throughout the camp and discovers an empty hut, and, reaching the gas chamber, concludes that Bruno has been brought to the gas chamber with a group of Jews. When Bruno's father arrives the boys are already dead and he is devastated. Upon hearing the father's cry of "Bruno!" the mother and Bruno's sister realize what has happened and are equally devastated. A last shot showing the undressing room with many camp uniforms reminds the viewer that the tragedy is not just Bruno and Shmuel's death, but that of many other Jewish people during the holocaust of World War II.

SI ALING DIONISIA NASA CHANNEL 5?

Oh yes, she was in Channel 5 last night on Lucy Torres' show Shall We Dance. She's grooving into some ballroom dances.

Who would have thought? Years ago she was just an ordinary tindera ng isda or something but thanks to Manny, she's now on TV and have the most expensive jewelries and was able to travel to Las Vegas to support his son. We trully cannot tell a person's destiny, we do not know what awaits us tomorrow.

The Pacquiao family is really an inspiration for people to dream, to aim high and to never give up. They make us realize that dreams can come true, that there is a chance for us to be whatever we want to be, there is just of course loads of hardwork, persistence, determination and prayers that goes with it.

So, let's go on dreaming. Not to be a world famous boxer or to dance ballroom on TV, but whatever it is that we have in our hearts. Lets be inspired not just by the Pacquiao family but for the thought that there is always hope out there, a little hope that we can hit it big, that we can go big time.

As for me, I won't stop, I'll always move on...I know I'll get to that dream...then when the time is up to retire, I would just be in a beach enjoying the view and having a drink...

wedding singer

2009-05-31T12:59:00.003+08:00

Oh Yes! I'll be a wedding singer next week. It's for my dear cousin's wedding, her name is Dinah and the wedding is going to be all the way in Mindanao, Cagayan de Oro to be exact.

It makes me smile when I think about how time ran so fast, it's like a few years ago she was this little girl I used to take to school because her mom, my tita is at work. I watched her grew up like my little sister and now she's going to have her own family...funny thing is I'm still unmarried lolz!!!!

She specially requested the song "it's your love" by Tim Mcgraw (Gil Ofarim has a version of this song), so I will be singing that song while she march down the aisle to married life, and I'm kinda nervous not because I'm afraid to sing in public but I want it to be perfect, for her and for our family. And I also prepared few other songs for the reception.

It's been like 7 years since I last visited Mindanao and I am extremely excited because I will also be visiting Iligan City and see familiar places, the Timoga Swimming Pools and some water falls out there, and also I'll be seeing lots of cousins from my mom's side, the nicest and the coolest of all.

And maybe, meet someone new, who knows....

This is kinda late...but last week was the fiesta celebration of my cousin's place, it's somewhere in Mandaluyong. There was a dance contest and I was one of the judge (3 years in a row that is lolz).

Aside from the dance contest there was this Gay Impersonation contest and this one is so funny, we were able to take a video.

I'M BACK!!!

2009-05-27T22:41:00.002+08:00

I'm officially back!!!! wasn't able to blog for I think a week because my PC was in a bad shape, I mean just the monitor and I had to buy a new one.

The latest is I'm still jobless, after I quit my job last week, the job that I learned to love...I miss working at night, my everyday routine of sleeping by day and working at night, my regular dose of coffee and cigarette, my clients...the americans I spoke to everynight, and most specially my dear friends whom I have seen almost everynight for the last four years. I'm still sad, I know in my heart that I made the right decision, it's just that I miss a lot of things and people... four years is four years and it made a mark in my heart already.

Ok, enough of the sentiments... the good news is...I got no pressure anymore wahahahahaha yeyyyy!!!! I'm currently a bum but I think I earned it, I'm enjoying my being unemployed at the moment. I went to the mall (which I haven't done in a very long time), went shopping and most of all, I'll be in Cagayan de Oro for a vacation.

When I get back, I'd look for a new job and I'd probably opt to work at home, maybe get 2 jobs working at home. I know that this kind of arrangement is already available. I missed blogging so I might be doing this everyday.

Yesterday was a big moment in my life, a made a big decision, in fact one of the hardest...I quit my job...

I have been with this company for 4 wonderful years and it really changed my life including my family. The job had the most attractive salary with great benefits, that is why I am sad that I had to leave. I have several reasons and money is included of course. First all of my friends got fired and only myself was asked to stay and I thought, will it be worth it?

The company offered some perks for people who would decide to accept the offer and stay and a severance package for those who will be asked to leave. After a quick thought I decided to voluntarily quit...

I feel in my heart that I made the right decision, it's what my heart says...not that my friends are gone and I will be alone eating in the pantry or during yosi break, I'm just tired and want to do something else, somewhere else...the severance package is not bad at all, it's more than enough to start a little business or maybe take a break for a while before looking for another job.
For now, I'm just sad...because I will truly miss the company, the office, my desk, my routine....but that's life, I have to move on...

wazup with me?

2009-05-16T04:06:00.004+08:00

First of all I'm happy that it's weekend...yet it's going to be a hectic and exhausting one. I'm off from work at 8AM, oh yeah I'm still on graveyard shift...But I'm kinda excited cuz I'm finally getting my tickets for my local trip this year yeheyyy!!!!

First is June 5th, I'll be in Cagayan de Oro City, The City of Golden Friendship. I'll be just attending the wedding of my dear cousin but at the same time I'll try my best to experience their rafting and water trekking. Then, I'll drop by my mom's home place, Iligan City, the City of waterfalls, and swim the cold waters of Timoga Swimming Pools. Then be back here in Manila by June 8th.

Second trip will be on July 22nd. I'll be home to attend our town fiesta, and you know when you're a filipino and probinsyano, fiesta is really a big deal to you. It's one of the season where you can see old friends, relatives etc...oh and when I say home I meant my sleepy wonderful town Sta. Margarita, Samar, that's like 18 hours travel by bus and more than an hour by plane and thank you Cebu Pacific air for the cheap tickets :)

Third is November 25th, I'll be in my second home, the queen city of the south, the wonderful CEBU. It has been my devotion to visit the queen city every year. The city I love and miss so very much it hurts awwww!!! I spent 15 wonderful years in Cebu, I was educated there, education in almost all aspects, in school and in the real world. I do miss my friends there a lot and I think of them all the time, maybe I'm crazy but I always imagine waking-up in the morning and taking a stroll in Jones Ave. or in Colon or maybe just in Urgello to buy some food, grab a drink and hang-out with friends. Sometimes I try not to look at Cebu Pictures online because it brings back memories and I'm kinda hurt that I can't be there because my life is now here in Manila... I still plan to buy a nice house there someday soon.

But meantime, I'll to enjoy my chaotic weekend...I'll meet a friend at 1pm (still sleepless) then I'll be judging a dance contest in Mandaluyong wahahahahah!!!!

For all of us who have music in our system, this one's again from my favorite show. An outstanding performance and SHE'S ASIAN. Check it out and say something...

Sue Son - Violinist - Britains Got Talent 2009 Ep 4 - Funny blooper videos are here

Now, would you do the same? Leave your friends for fame? Tell me....

Reyna Emperatriz????

2009-05-08T23:56:00.005+08:00

Are you serious Rustom? ah mm I mean BB???

Ok here's the issue...

I know that almost everyone has heard that Rustom Padilla now known as BB Gandanghari was not allowed to get inside Aruba Bar (located in Metro Walk along Meralco Ave. in Ortigas) beacuse the bar has a strict policy when it comes to cross-dressing and we all know that BB has been wearing fancy clothes since he became the "woman" as he claims he is. This incident is not the first because Inday Garutay had the same experience before with the same bar. Again, they have a strict policy with this matter. As expected, BB protested, saying he was there for an invitation of a friend Rannie Raymundo who's having a show, but he was never allowed. And so he went away and then blogged the incident on his blogspot. On his blog, he strongly stressed that he was not violating anything or any dresscode because he is not a man wearing a woman's clothes but she is a "woman", no violation whatsoever....(If you wanna know more about this story check the internet, it's all over google).

Anyways, this post is not just about BB and his Aruba Bar incident. Few minutes ago I checked at PEP, that BB has accepted the offer to be the REYNA EMPERATRIZ at a Malabon Sagala ng mga Bading. Well I can't help but say MY OH MY! I thought he said he's a woman and if you're a woman, why join Gay's Santacruzan? isn't it supposed to feature gays? Well, this only means acceptance that he is one of them. A comment on BB's blog said that while he has that "shaft" between his legs he will never be a woman, or in my point of view, come on BB, being a woman is all in your mind, no matter what you do you can never be one. You can act like one but you are not one, you know why? because you are a man, you were born a man and that you have to accept it so that people can accept you as well. I guess people right now understand that you are out trying to prove something, maybe you're trying to prove something to yourself, just maybe. But for people, we have seen so much like you. We have seen gays struggle for acceptance, and they we're accepted by people because they are being themselves, they are respected and not ridiculed because they showed to people that they can be respected as well. I think people would love and admire you more if you tell people that yes, you're gay and you're loving it.

I'm not saying I'm right but this is just my opinion.

SUNOOOOGGGG!!!!

2009-05-04T16:20:00.004+08:00

When I made my post early today, I thought that was it for Monday...I'm gonna eat and then rest the whole day because I have to work tonight. Then I went to watch my Favorite British reality show Britain's Got Talent on Youtube. But later on I smelled something, like somethin's burning somewhere and I first thought of my kitchen because once I left the stove open for 4 hours, I was cooking and then I forgot to turn it off, oh yeah stupid me!

But I remember turning it off this time. So I thought something was terribly wrong, I looked outside my window and saw this!!!!

The garment factory just across my building is on fire. I didn't panic at first because I thought it's not that close to where I stay, it's a few meters away but on the other side of the street and I also stay on the 4th floor. I went to get my camera to take a few pictures and when I looked back at the window, I was horrified...smoke was everywhere. The wind direction is through my building so the smoke got into my room so quickly. I couldn't see anything and my eyes was hurting. PANIC MODE!!!!!!

TAKBOOOOOOO!!!!!

I managed to lock my door grab my wallet, phone and ran downstairs!!!!

Good thing those firemen were able to take control quickly...nobody died, I'm not sure if anyone got hurt or what's the cause of the fire (katatapos nga lang eh) But I'm relieved that I'm still in one piece and no one is hurt.

Later I'll try to be a reporter and check what happened down there.

Manny Pacquiao's latest victory came as no surprise, people have expected him to win. As a matter of fact, anywhere you go, you can hardly find anyone who would bet against him. My officemates just bet on how many rounds would it take for Manny to knock Hatton down...and indeed in two very short rounds Hatton was literally knocked-out.

Manny has now become a phenomenon, a national inspiration and almost everyone who is associated with him becomes known to the public or at least become news ( look at Nanay Dionisia, Freddy Roach, Jinkee and their kids, Ara Mina, Chavit Singson etc..)

And it's amazing how road traffic slows and almost zero crime records in Manila area each time he has a fight. This only shows how proud Filipinos are, that one of us is out there representing us in the world of boxing. Each fight is a fight of our country and each win is a triumph of each one of us.

I just hope that when all this is over, when the boxing gloves are kept in the closet, when the lights are off...we should still remember how Manny Pacquiao gave us the honor, the pride and the inspiration that dreams can come true, that no matter how simple your life is, no matter who and that you are, there is always a little glimpse of hope that you can be whatever you want to be...just look at Manny...

Careful though Manny, this country has a history of persicuting those who inspire, those who give hope...as mentioned on my last post...careful Manny...we love you so just be careful who to trust....

pilipins my pilipins

2009-05-02T06:59:00.003+08:00

ba't ganun????

I'd like to start my entry with that question...

I know in my heart that we have a great country, but ba't ganun???

Jun Lozada is in jail...the person who had the courage to expose the anomaly and corruption of the ZTE deal. The person who became an inspiration to filipinos, that somehow there is still a slim chance for honesty, that somehow not everyone can be consumed by greed for money...and now he is behind bars, and the people he accused of dishonesty, of corruption is out there enjoying their power and their freedom.

Is this the price for going out and telling the truth in this country?

Would you still be honest and tell the truth for the sake of the filipino people if you know that you would only end-up in jail?

Now, what kind of country are we running here...what kind of freedom are we supposed to enjoy?

And why him??? why is that guy who is accused of malversation of funds of a pre-need company not in jail?

Why is that husband of the most powerful woman in this country accused of corruption and money laundering and using his connections and power for personal benefits not in jail?

Or why is that guy who is accused of the multi-million fertilizer scam still out there? inspite of the overwhelming evidence that he masterminded the scam...

Well let me say this, I hope you all die! so we, Jun Lozada and the rest can move on with our lives in our wonderful country.

saHod Na BUKAS!

2009-04-27T12:38:00.002+08:00

It's Monday the 27th, again I had a boring weekend just stayed at home and watched TV... primarily because I don't have the budget to go out and there isn't much new pirated DVDs to buy...bukas pa ang sahod the 28th..

Speaking of Sahod, did you know that when you get your payslip and thoroughly internalize the computation your blood pressure can rise up to the highest level??? Oh yeah specially when you're single like me.. the Income tax of a single person can be as high as 30%, YES!!! 30% OF YOUR INCOME GOES TO THE GOVERNMENT SO TO SPEAK!!! and that really sucks!!!!

I'm working as a horse and the government gets nearly half of what I earn, in exchange of what??? traffic?? flooding in our areas with just slight rain??? pockets of curropt officials???

This is one of the most disgusting thing in our system, nagpapakiharap tayong magtrabaho tapos 30% ng kinikita natin kinukuha sa atin eh sila lang ang nagpapasarap. I once said that if I'm gonna give them that much, they should have provided me a nice car na susundo sa akin sa bahay papuntang work, lintek sila...konting ulan lang binabaha agad ang metro manila..hahayyyy what the F*CK is gonna happen to our lives here in this country...

is still there a chance??? by voting for the right one or the less evil one in next year's election make a difference??? but how would we know??? who has and who hasn't the longest horn and tail...

or should we just leave this land and work somewhere else? like abroad? i planned that already and i might go with that option...even if i know that it's gonna be sad, because I'm a believer that happiness is when you live in your motherland.... tell me you're gonna be happy living in a foreign land where you're the only one colored among your neighbors, you're earning very good and have the best government but you are being treated as a second class citizen..

tang*na, kahit yata saan magpunta me kalintikang mangyayari...

GMA? ERAP? tell me the difference, is there?

happy BIRTHDAY angel!

2009-04-24T00:59:00.004+08:00

That's Angel, my friend/office-mate on the left and that monkey-looking guy goofing behind is, well, ahemm.. ahhh... mmm... ok it's me. But hey! I don't normally look like that everyday, I was just as I said goofing around since it's my friend's Bday.

Ok, the usual stuff, cake with a candle to blow (red sperma candle we borrowed from manong the guard because mumi vk forgot the candle of the cake). Anyways, she's out right now with her bf somewhere in Tagaytay para dun magpalamig :)

My birthday is past approaching and I won't mention my age since I stopped counting when I reached 25, and yes I'm serious. It's gonna be a Monday but I plan to celebrate on Sunday, the 14th (my actual bday is June 15)

At balak ko magpa-inom, so if anybody of you is not busy and want's to join me on my birthday, you just tell me and I'd be happy to invite you and get dunk LOLZ! and lastly I will be travelling again this year, for my much needed rest and break. First stop is Cagayan de Oro in Mindanao to attend my cousin's wedding, Oh yeah CDO is such a nice place and I wanna try their white water rafting. Next is Samar, by July I will be coming home to my sleepy yet wonderful province, fiesta kasi dun, then come November I'll be back to Cebu City, my second home...the city that has a very special place in my heart....

See you there, kung sino man nandun!

AGAIN, SLEEP IS SUCH A PRECIOUS COMMODITY...for me...

For almost four years now, I have not been able to have a good sleep. Everyday I only sleep for like 4 to 6 hours and sometimes just 3 hours...

Part of the reason is that I work at night and it's so difficult to sleep by day when everyone is awake, noisy doing things. I have tried so many things to put myself to sleep, tried valium (which I quit using due to unpleasant side effects), antihesthamines to alcohol...but still the same. It's like my inner clock is broken, that I'm automatically up after 4 to 5 hours of sleep and can no longer go back to the dreamland...

My oh my...if anyone among you knows the remedy, please do share it to me, mukha na akong zombie minsan...

Worse part is...as per text of my friend...

"the scary thing about having insomnia is not the hours lost for sleeping...but actually the rerun of the thoughts you've been trying to run away from...

DICIPLINE YOURSELF

2009-04-20T08:56:00.002+08:00

It's Monday and I just had, again a boring weekend. Nothing special, went out to a drinking session with some old friends and got kinda tipsy and tried to kiss someone just behind the door and almost got caught or maybe caught by another b8tch, ahhh F#$K...that's why I hate it when I get drunk because sometimes I do stupid things to people, stupid things I horribly regret the next day...anyways it's done, leave it there and move on, maybe do other things lolz!

NO!!!! the picture on the left is not me. It's someone I googled before making this entry. I just chose it because it represents the result of my diet and YES it's working wonderfully YEHEYYYYY!!! YES and YES and YES again, my bodybuilt is 98% the same as the picture on the left and after 2 months it became that pic on the right side and it feels soooo amazing, fulfilling and I'm like on natural high hahahahaha....I promise that next weekend I will post my before and after pic...

Wanna know how? ok the thing is I avoided carbo a.k.a. rice, I ate rice at least once a day only but lots of veggies or more ulam super-less rice, and hey I still eat a lot during weekends, my diet is only on weekdays. Also I still eat several times a day, just less, bawal magpabundat! and lastly NO MORE BEER!!!! number 1 yan na nakakalaki ng tyan. So if there's anyone else who wants to loose weight out there, just eat in moderation and do not starve yourself because it would only make you eat more, small feeding is the key.

Anyways, it's the first day of the week again and will get back to work tonight same sh#t 11pm to 8am. I am officially a nuctornal creature, like dracula, like a bat or a racoon? or a tarsier? scary huh! I might evolve to something like those lolz!

bye :D

The British Invasion 3rd Wave

2009-04-16T18:09:00.003+08:00

I have always been a fan of the reality show Britain's Got Talent and since it's not being shown here in the Philippines, I just get to watch the show online. Now, the 3rd season has officially began, the audition series have been broadcasted already.

One contestant that caught my attention again is 47 year old Susan Boyle...she is really the symbol of the saying "don't judge the book by it's cove"..

AGAIN LOOKS CAN BE VERY VERY DECEIVING...PEOPLE MUST DIG DIP, PEOPLE WHO JUDGE BY PHYSICAL BEAUTY ARE THOSE PEOPLE WITH NARROW POINT OF VIEW!

“
Modern society is too quick to judge people on their appearances. ... There is not much you can do about it; it is the way they think; it is the way they are. But maybe this could teach them a lesson, or set an example.

THE TED FAILON INCIDENT

2009-04-16T07:16:00.005+08:00

It's all over the news and I'm sure you guys know that ABS-CBN News Journalist-Broadcaster Ted Failon's wife had been shot in the head and currently fighting for her life at the New Era Hospital. A lot of speculations have come-out from this controversy including the question if it was an attempted suicide or an attempted homicide.

Ted Failon's statement said that he did not finish his radio show at DZMM after she spoke to his wife over the phone and immediately went home. When he arrived in their home he said the door to the bathroom was locked and when they were able to open it she found his bloodied wife lying on the floor. I'm not going to narrate all the details here because I'm sure you can find it elsewhere. I just want to share my point of view on this case.

And I see inconsistencies...

- He said he saw his wife bloodied and lying on the floor of their bathroom, brought her to the hospital but immediately left, news said he was wearing a bloodied shirt and a surgical mask to avoid identification by the media. My question, when your wife is shot in the head and fighting for her life, are you suppose to leave her in the hospital? what's more important than the life of your partner? is he suppose to do or clean something? because..

- when the police arrived at their residence, the bathroom where the wife was found had been cleaned already. Mr. Failon is an Educated Man, Broadcaster and former Congressman, he should know better, he should know that nobody should touch a crime scene until the experts examine it thourougly, by doing so is an obstruction of justice. Not unless he is trying to conceal something.

- he returned the gun to their bedroom instead of living it there for the police to check.

- the bullet entered in the wife's left temple yet the gun was found on the right side. i dont thing you shoot your left temple with your right hand, that's hard to do and wrong way of killing your self.

- the police found out that they had an argument on Tuesday night and allegedly the wife left but came back on Wednesday.

- the "suicide note" calls her Papa but uses "po". Is that normal? I mean does husbands and wives normally says po and opo to each other? specially in serious matters like when the wife is about to end her life?

these are just some of the questions I have...What do you think????

Happy Easter

2009-04-12T11:54:00.007+08:00

Hello Everyone!!!! Happy Easter!!!!

I'm at home bored and just infront of my PC so might as well do some blogging.

Last night was kinda fun, I went out with some friends and had some drinks plus the national past-time of pinoys "Videoke".

Anyways, a blogger named Ion Ignacio dropped by recently and as I checked his blog, I saw a very interesting entry. I says about Facebook and Youtube at work can increase productivity, check this link from Reuters. Well I have to agree with this, because it's always refreshing to surf outside work sites once in a while to clear our minds, refresh and then focus to work again, this does really help us concentrate better. Maybe I should email this link to our bosses at work since they blocked Friendster, MySpace, Youtube, Facebook etc.... months ago. Work sometimes can be stressful, boring, draining and pressuring, so we always need a break, be it a cigarette, food, a drink, fresh air or Facebook. But of course there should be a limitation to this, just as long as this does not become a habit, I guess this is fine.

Ok for my Monday treat I have to share the story of my friend's household help a.k.a katulong. Her name is Norma, shes' 34 and came all the way from my province, the island of Samar. She came to Manila of course to look for work and since Grade 1 lang ang natapos she ended up being a katulong, she doesn't know how to read either and can hardly write her name. I even asked her what made her sure of her age since she doesn't even remember her birthday, she grinly said she has this "papelita" or birth certificate kept at home, her little proof of her existence as a citizen of this country...tsk...tsk..poor Norma, I really pity her a lot, specially when she told me that she misses her 3 young kids she left behind with her husband who's a farmer.

Pity became hilariously funny when she told me that her husband is actually her second husband, and she said her first husband just left her without saying goodbye when she was about to give birth with her eldest child, and she's telling the story while laughing as if it was just a big joke. Inside I felt kinda envious of how simple her thinking is, seemed so out of complex. And then I asked why didn't she study, why Grade 1? she said she was destracted with boys at an early age, she got married when she was 15 years old, I said WHAATTT??? did your parents let you marry at that age? she said YES, MY PARENTS EVEN ARRANGED THE MARRIAGE, I mean WTF!!! then I realized that's their culture "up there" (she used to live in a remote barrio, in a mountain, 7 hours by foot) and she said she was "bought" by her first husband, I said bought? mmmm ohhh that's the dowry, it's an old filipino custom, now I understand.

The dowry was composed of a pig, 3 thousand pesos, 2 dozens of sardines and a nipa hut. Now how's that???? are you willing to get married for that dowry????

But what the heck!!! my point is we are so LUCKY!!! we have this kind of life but we still complain a lot, we still become so mean and selfish and uncontented. When I look at Norma, I learn to realize what I have and how to count my blessings.

Be well :)

biyernes santo

2009-04-11T04:07:00.005+08:00

AYUN NA NGA!!! ITS BIYERNES SANTO...

Good Friday, as in commemorating the death of Our Lord Jesus Christ...Processions, Fasting, Sacrifice, Reflection and anything religious...

But on the other hand, in the Filipino slang, Biyernes Santo could also mean different, as in "mukha kang biyernes santo" and i think i am on this category right now...

Why?

because while everybody is vacationing in Boracay (or nag-sasabunutan, nagbabatuhan or nang-aagaw na baril sa bora), in Bohol, Galera, Camsur etc... at ako naman nasaan???????

I'M WORKING!!! yes, so pathetic, it's like I'm not a Christian or something. Ito kasing mga amerikano, they do not celebrate this season, all they do is work and work and work...kaya ayun pati kami nadamay...specially my line of work. Anyways, I work for an american company that operates an online store so we have to be here when somebody calls or checks or website.

Worse is, it's so hard to get a taxi or take the bus!!! as in the roads are empty everyone is out trying to wash their sins and here i am, standing alone at edsa...plus walang mabilhan ng pagkain, stores are closed kahit tinapay wala and i can't cook naubos na gas sa bahay wala ding mabilhan!!!!!

McDonalds Emerald was open the whole day it's where I ate my breakfast and bought Hamdesal with Egg for my dinner, but when I woke-up nakita ko nilanggam ng todo ang pagkain.

So ang ending...gutom....water therapy...natuloy diet ko....

But tomorrow's Saturday...balik na sa dati yey!!! and I've decided that the Menu for the weekend will be....

Saturday: Bicol Express
Fried Fish
Ampalaya with Egg
Lumpiang Shanghai

Sunday: Pork Sinigang
Inihaw na bangus
Stir Fried Veggies
Tocino

Pwede na ba?

a time to reflect...

2009-04-07T23:21:00.005+08:00

It's holy week again...

The season of reflection and sacrifice and abstinence..

Our Lord Jesus Christ sacrificed his life for our sins, he was crucified and died on the cross...sometimes I wonder was it worth it? am I worth sacrificing? are we worth sacrificing?

Although I am Catholic and a strong believer in Jesus Christ as my saviour, I have not been very religious lately...years ago when I was a teenager I used to sing in the church as a member of a choir. And I have to admit that it was the time when I really felt the strong foundation of being a christian..because I believe that if you want to experience the glory of God's power, to be inspired and to see the world in a different view, you have to practice your faith...

When I left and moved to a bigger city in Cebu and then here in Manila things have changed a lot...life in the big city can be very very different, can be tempting, can be wicked, can be consuming...I guess I was consumed by my need for comfort, money, earthly desires, lust, vanity and so on....

I just wish I could think of all these things everyday and gain control, not just today, not just during the season of lent...

Now, I ask myself, what am i willing to sacrifice? I'd make it simple and make a little list...

- sex is absolutely out this week

- meat is not an option and it will benefit me cuz i'm dieting

- alcohol

- i'll pray and meditate and really reflect on where this life is heading...i'm praying for guidance so that my life would not be focused on things that i want but rather things i need...

how about you, what are you willing to sacrifice?

X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE LEAKED COPY

2009-04-06T09:26:00.004+08:00

First I want to say DO NOT WATCH THE LEAKED COPY!!!!!!

A few days ago I was able to read online that a copy of this movie was leaked to the internet. 20th Century Fox already made a statement that it was an early version of the movie with temporay sounds, without many and with unfinished effects etc...

THIS IS ALL TRUE!!!!

Last Saturday I made one big mistake of buying a pirated copy, I was on my way to KFC when I saw a street vendor selling "DVD copies" of this movie. I got one for PHP35.00 and went home to watch it. I was excited because I have been waiting for this movie for a long time, but I was DISMAYED, FRAUSTRATED AND PISSED when I watched it.

20th Century Fox's statement is 100% true, this is an early version with unfinished effects. If you watch this, it's going to spoil everything including all your excitement.

Why? in one scene you can see Wolverine's Claw in one angle and the next angle it doesn't show. You can still see those strings or safety harness on their backs and a lot of animation like images, a clear indication that the movie is not yet done, it just looks a like a very cheap budgeted movie.

So again, if you are an avid X-MEN fan, just be patient and wait till it's shown on cinemas this May. Whoever stole this copy must be jailed or maybe crucified this holy week!

A COKE A DAY...

2009-04-04T03:12:00.005+08:00

I finally got my coke shirt :)...

I've loved this shirt ever since I saw it on TV and in Bench Stores and now I have mine, thanks to Paul who got 3 free shirts from 3 tansans lolz! It's a bench shirt but doesn't have the best quality, but whatever, I still love it!!!

It's Friday and almost holy week, a time for reflection...and I have finally stopped praying about winning the lotto, lecheng lotto yan sobrang ilap!!!!

I also thought of quiting my job and finding something else, and as expected each time I plan on resigning, something always comes up, be it salary increase, a bonus or whatever...and now another thing came, makes me reconsider everything...

Lord...will you let me work abroad? should I work abroad? I need some signs please, this have been a long pending plan and you know I almost left for Doha, Qatar kung di lang ako binarat ng lintek na bombay na sales manager malamang nandun na ako sa disyerto...

I know that money isn't everything, and it cannot but happiness blah! blah! blah! but come on, kelangan ko yan ngayon specially with the global crisis...I still have this dream of putting-up my own restaurant, of going to culinary school and taking a crash course in business...

Things to do this weekend?

- DVD marathon, maghanap ng magagandang pirated movie
- Again, clean-up my room (long delayed sked, but i've started cleaning the floor)
- Get a foot-spa
- Tumaya uli ng lotto sa Sunday
- Focus on my diet
- Ubusin ang kalahating boteng tequila, left-over from last weekend
- Get a hair-cut
- Call Mom
- Pray
- Be Good :)

any other fool...

2009-04-02T05:57:00.004+08:00

Since nothing special happened today...I'm gonna share a nice song I heard over the radio for many times but didn't know the title and the artist until now...and to my surprise, the singer is one of my favorite Patti Austin, now wonder the voices sounded so familiar...

The title of this song is Any other fool (click to download the song)

And it says something like this....

I couldn’t see paradise right before my eyes
And when I had you here by my side
I didn’t know that no one else could ever take your place
But now I know
I know that I should have stayed
And seeing you tonight
I only wonder why
I ever said goodbye

Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know I never should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me

Any one else never would have let the feeling die
Any one else would have fought to keep it alive
If they were in my shoes
They’d know the love we had was love too good to lose

Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know I never should have let you go
I had it all when you were loving me
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me
I had it all when you were loving me (had all the love I ever need)
I had it all as any fool could see (any other fool but me)

Any other fool would never walk away (any other fool)
Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know I never should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me

Any other fool but me

Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know I never should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me

***this song is about wrong choices we made, things we should have done but didn't until it's too late....

what do you live for?

2009-04-01T06:28:00.003+08:00

believing in a love that's wrong...

saving your best for someone who can never give enough for you...

hoping for a miracle for something that is hopeless...

kept on looking back and unable to move on...

hurting yourself by loving someone you know you can never have...

don't you think it's time to move on?

don't you think it's time to pick-up the pieces and say "next time i'll be better?"

sometimes it's not right to keep on loving, not when love gives you nothing but pain...

sometimes it's not wise to hold-on, when you can no longer find reason other than love... that love that made you cry...

SUMMER 2009

2009-03-31T07:51:00.002+08:00

OH YEAH IT'S SUMMER, IT'S HOT AND WILL NOT BE COMPLETE WITHOUT SWIMMING!!!

and that's what we did last sunday, me and my neices & nephews went to a resort called Volets in Dasmariñas, Cavite.

the place is kinda nice except for the uncomfortable feeling, kinda sticky in skin water because of too much chlorint treatment. You're going enjoy swimming, the fountains, slides and artificial waves but you have to bring your shampoo because your hair would feel like you haven't cleaned it for ages.

overall, the place is Ok beacause, it's located near a mall where you can buy all your stuff and there are lots of buses, jeepneys and tricycles, transportation is easy.

entrance for this summer is at Php190 per person day swimming, Php200 per person for night swimming

My Share

2009-03-28T22:00:00.005+08:00

03-28-09
8:30PM to 9:30PM
EARTH HOUR

And of course I did my share...turned-off everything, fridge, tv, electric fan, computer, everything except my LED flashlight which i used when i was cooking dinner (see pic :) that's meat my kitchen frying chicken and some quick poses in the darkness. at least in some way i had my contribution in saving energy for mother earth. it's obvious that the weather nowadays is getting weirder each day, it's summer and it rained for 2 days huh!

Anyways, things to do this weekend? mmm...please inspire me to finally clean-up my room, it needs cleaning so badly, tomorrow afternoon i'll do my best to sweep all the dust out, of course that's after we go swimming. oh yeah, we're going swimming with my cousins, nieces and nephews and some friends, there's this resort in cavite they talked about.

okidoki, i'll log out early :D!!! it's weekend and i'm hoping this one would be awesome!

dried out

2009-03-28T01:10:00.003+08:00

why is it soooo hard to have cash nowadays??? i have a good compensation package here at work and it's still not enough!!!!

It all started last January, when things started to dry wtf!!! i haven't done or bought the things i got used to, now i am living very strictly on my budget otherwise there won't be money left to pay for my bills.!!!!

apartment, electricity, water, cable tv, internet connection, groceries, cigarettes...f*&k! i'm not sure which one should i flush down the toilet!!!

can somebody tell me how to get more cash??? i've been trying my luck with lottery but my luck have not worked just yet...now it's payday but after all the computations and everything, there isn't much left for me, unlike last year when i always have a couple of thousand pesos for things i want to buy or spend unwinding!!! but now, it's hell!!!!

i have to strictly follow my budget nowadays, or else....

i hate this....U.S. economy when are you gonna get back on your feet damn it!!!!

2009-03-26T23:34:00.002+08:00

some bloggers haven't been updating their blogs lately or they aren't blogging that much. they say its because of the popularity of facebook and twitter (even ellen degeneres is doing twitter and she always mention it on her show)...well i have a facebook account and a twitter account. i often check my facebook but don't update it so much, i just check and read what people have been doing. i also have a twitter account but my goodness, i only have a couple of entry there and a couple of followers as well...not too good for a twitter...

anyways wtf i will still blog.....

on my previous post i mentioned that i'm trying to loose weight, haven't been eating so much, limited carbo intake (eating rice once a day), a tiny sandwich for breakfast, two pieces of bread for dinner, no more ice cream, no more beer blah....blah...blah...

f*&^ck!!!! it's a hell of a struggle...im always dizzy, see the pic above? that's how i percieve things nowadays lolz!!! but most of the time i feel good specially when i look in the mirror and see that my stomach is no longer bulging hahahaha, or when i wear kinda tight fitting shirts and i look better and my body feels light most of the time, iiii llllooovvveeee iittt!!!

BUT!!! i know i still have to eat, i just wanna loose weight and not get sick or die.

in a couple of weeks i might be posting the results here, i mean pics...the before and after pics...

I'm on a diet

2009-03-25T00:40:00.003+08:00

Oh yeah! I have been dieting for more than two weeks now, I just forgot to mention it here. I'm trying my best to eat rice at least once a day only (small amount) and I'm happy that it's working just fine, I already lost a few pounds. I'm so excited and really looking forward on posting my before and after pic right here. But I need to loose at least 5 more pounds before I post any pic.

Anyways, it's really a struggle and requires a lot of focus, dicipline, courage, patience and determination to loose weight because I got used to eating like a pig and now...no more heavy meals in the morning after work and before I go to sleep, just 2 or 3 pieces of bread, no more pizza, beer, ice cream and the rest of my comfor food...at first it was so difficult but now I am adjusting quite well...

I still eat a lot, once a day that is...but not as much as I used to..

I will be posting my progress in this blog and hopefull I could encourage others to do the same, for health reasons and for better living. And besides, aint it wonderful to be slim, have a flat tummy and dress-up well and be cool??? :)

Rest In Peace Dear Jade...

2009-03-23T23:44:00.004+08:00

British reality star Jade Goody is finally in peace, she died in her sleep on March 22, 2009 after a battle of cervical cancer. She was diagnosed of cancer around August of 2008 while inside Big Brother House in India. She left a husband and two young sons.

I have followed her story for months now, eversince I've read about the controversy she had in Big Brother UK where there were issues about racism about her throwing remarks to Indian Star Shilpa Shetty. In my opinion, yes there was an issue but she did her part to correct and show the world she wasn't a racist by entering the Big Brother house in India and it was there where she was told the horrifying truth that she had cancer...

One thing I admire about her is her courage, to face everything...happiness, pain, sorrow and death...she made sure everything is in the right places before she died including the future of her children.

As I mentioned on my last entry, life is so fagile....we just don't know what's gonna happen next who things will end...but Jade's fight is over and she won, even if it meant death for her...she won her battle, she made a change, she touched lives and passed away peacefully, in peace....

I pray for her soul...rest in peace Jade...

when time runs out

2009-03-21T00:35:00.003+08:00

it is really sad when a loved one leaves so suddenly and you don't get the chance to say goodbye.....

yesterday, me and my friends were just talking about the accident and death of british actress Natasha Richardson, in someway i am affected for the fact that she was a mother with young kids and a wife to actor Liam Neeson. she was just vacationing somewhere in canada when she fell and hit her head and now she's dead...the sad news is all over the news and i did my share of saying a prayer for her peace...

and today when i got to work things bacame the saddest...when i was told that the mother of my friend mami vk just died today. mami vk is the friend who just celebrated her birthday last monday and i even blogged about the happening a few days ago, i also posted a happy picture of us with her birthday cake, and now...she's in sorrow...

last night she was just telling us that she's pissed because her mother was hospitalized because of difficulty in breathing, maybe due to exhaustion. her mother is a diabetic and with complications already, but she also said that her mom is already out of the hospital, obviously something went wrong....

these things make me realize how very fragile life is....we just don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow, when is our "time"...one moment you have your loved ones with you and the next thing you realize is that their gone...you weren't able to say goodbye, you weren't able to give your last hug or to say i love you...the only thing left behind are memories....

memories are good but sometimes it can be painful...missing someone is painful specially if you no longer have the chance to see that person ever again...so while you can love them more...while you have them make them feel they are really loved...

LATELY

2009-03-18T04:24:00.002+08:00

lately...

i have been very clumsy...yesterday i broke a glass here in my desk, so i have to wear my slippers all the time cuz there are tiny bits of broken glasses under my table...

minutes ago i was in the pantry i broke another glass gain :( im now just waiting for the company to deduct the amount of those broken glasses to my salary....

at home, my electric fan isn't working good anymore, it overheated due to being overused...

and i hate my f*ck*ng neighbor, they have not paid or cable tv monthly fee (we share) so cable tv's off...

lastly i'm broke, i gave my money to my mom & dad because it's their birthday on the 17th & 20th respectively...

now, how do i call this week???

bday ni vk

2009-03-17T02:44:00.006+08:00

Oh yeah, it's mami VK's birthday...there's pasta one with meat sauce ala spaghetti and the other one is with white sauce and tuna equally yummy...and of course the traditional cake na tag Php117 ang ambag namin lolz!!!

Happy Birthday Mami VK and thanks for the food, and by the way I look so fat in that pic F&#K!!!! I swear I lost a few lbs already, I've been dieting and starving myself for over a week now. No more beer, very small amount of carbo only, lots of apples and I really make an effort to control my craving, I promise on my next post I will post a pic where I don't look that heavy anymore. I guess it's the shirt, it's yellow and with horizontal stripes imprint, that's why....

Last Saturday I went out with Manilyn & Jasmin, we had dinner at Krocodile Grill that's in Greenbelt, I'll post the details maybe tomorrow with some pics....

Also...early today I watched the trailer of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and it's Fu*&ing awesome ANLUPEEETTTT!!! Everybody should check out the trailer, just search for it at Youtube or the official website of that movie. I can't wait till it is showing here in Manila...kahit mahal ang sine manonood pa rin ako!!!!

I had a fight with someone last Saturday and I got so pissed, worst thing is I did not fight back, I just shut my mouth cuz I know it was the best thing to do. Shutting up is not me at all, I normally fight back, I always retaliate most specially if I know that I am not at fault. But this time I didn't, I guess its because the timing, it was 2AM and it happened in my room, it would be a big scene if I fought back...I still feel bad about it, gusto ko tumabla....pero I just need to let it go and move on. Fu*K dem anywayz!!

Sorry for my language I'm just pissed....feeling ko inapi ako....

2009-03-14T03:56:00.002+08:00

it's friday and i'm kinda happy...

aside from the fact that finally i can rest my exhausted body, it's payday :D so there's a sweet smile in my face even if i only slept for 4 hours. mixed emotions kumbaga pinaghalong saya at init ng ulo kay wag pa ring salingin lolz!!!

anyways, the friend that i mentioned on my last post (yeah, that friend who just came from the states) is going home to our province, the island paradise of samar (18 long hours of travel by bus or an hour by plane, regularly bombarded by typhoons, dirty politics etc....) she'll be there for more than a week then will go back to the states again :( and before she leaves we're gonna have s dinner tomorrow night. i mentioned to her that we should hang-out somewhere in greenbelt and i'm sure we can find a nice place to eat...

my cousin (again, the one i mentioned on my previous post) finally stopped texting me, maybe because i stopped texting back, i stopped texting back because i didn't think i have the authority to advice something about lovelife because mine is a total mess, and sexlife? mmm... not either cuz mine is boring nowadays and they're more active than i am so they should know better now...

i'll try to get drunk tomorrow night...it's been a while and my nerves are carving for alcohol...but i should continue my diet, argghhhhhh i wanna eat lots and lots of food but i shouldn't, not now...well im glad that my diet is finally working :) i lost a few lbs and my tummy is now a lot smaller. i only need to work on my abs and get that six pack wahahahahahaha

2009-03-12T01:09:00.002+08:00

its wednesday and again i'm half way thru week 2 of march. my main problem nowadays is the heat, pun%$@&tA ANG INITTT!! it's f*ck#ng hard to sleep and i work at night so kalbaryo talaga lintek!!!!!

anyways, im trying to calm myself down thinking that this friday the 13th will be the opposite, it's gonna be a lucky day kasi sahod na. maybe i could spare few hundreds and go out, relax, unwind, get drunk and forget all these troubles!!!

life can be real tough specially when you grow-up and handle certain responsibilities. you'd feel like you wanna stop and have a break but you can't, you just can't because you have lots of responsibilities, you have to pay your bills, you have to live so that others who depend on you could live as well. it's the situation wherein you're working not just because of your own survival but for others too..you are working and musn't stop so that things will remain in order...

sorry na oo mainit lang ulo ko!

on the lighter side, i have been bombarded with texts from my cousin today. actually he's like a brother because we both grow-up in the same house and i watched over him when he was a kid (he's like 17 years old now). funny thing is he's been asking for my advice about he's lovelife...and i thought come on he's only 17 lolz!!! he said he had this girl, they were together for 2 years but they're off now and he's affected because the girl is with someone else now and that someone else lives just next door, which means he sees them together all the time and he's pissed (not counting the fact that this ex-gf had a fling with another cousin of ours hahahaha, great girl right?, messing around with everyone) and worst part is these kids are sexually active, holy sh*t!!!! they're just kids and they have sex all the time, my goodness!!! my cousin told me they always do it on the beach at night and the other cousin whom this girl had a fling told me they also did it in that same beach dogstyle pa daw! p*ta talaga. what's wrong with this generation????

and my advice? deadma na lang, move on with this life, focus on studies sleep early so that he would have healthy skin and would look good. i said don't let them see you're affected even if you are, never give them the satisfaction. do your best to look good and happy, hayaan mong malosyang yung babaeng yun.

now am i right?

25 RanDOM THings ABout Me

2009-03-10T07:43:00.003+08:00

OK FINE! SINCE EVERYONE HAS BEEN TAGGING ME ABOUT THIS AND EVERY BLOGGER HAS AN ENTRY ABOUT THIS, I'M DOING THIS JUST FOR THE SAKE OF NOTHING...

1. I don't eat liver, be it pork or chicken liver. It's taste is disgusting and I can really tell if a food has liver on it, it makes me puke.

2. I love songs from the 80s, love songs in particular, those old songs of Phil Collings, new waves...anything 80s.

3. I haven't slept well in 4 years. Maybe because I work at night mmmm but even if I'm not working I find it so hard to sleep.

4. My favorite vegetable is Ampalaya, kahit araw-araw mabubuhay ako ng ampalaya lang ang ipakain, of course dapat gisahin at lagyan ng itlog.

5. My other favorite dish is "ginataang alimasag" isipin ko palang naglalaway na ako.

6. I love my family so much, that when they do horrible things I find it hard to forgive them because I really get hurt. I don't want them to be lost on the wrong roads in life...

7. I love foreign movies, specially those with languages I don't understand (chinese, french, italian, spanish etc...) I find it fascinating and challenging to get myself dizzy by chasing those very small subtitles on the bottom of the screen lolz!!!

8. I love taking pictures, kahit saan picture kahit nakakahiya na picture pa rin, kahit walang ligo walang suklay picture pa rin.

9. Travel is one of my passion hahahaha kahit walang pera I wanna travel. I wanna visit Europe or pag walang pera sa Cebu nalang uli.

10. I'm a writer. I used to write literature on my journal before I became a blogger. Too bad I lost one of my journal with so much stuffs in it.

11. Trip ko maligo sa ulan, i dunno...I just love it when it rains. I feel like my soul would be cleansed if I bathe at rain...

12. I experiment a lot in cooking, I love to cook kahit ano lang...usually something with coconut milk and lots of chili pepper...

13. Lately I have been enjoying Vodka, mixed with sprite or orange juice.

14. I find it hard to settle down and find someone I could spend the rest of my life with. Maybe the problem is with me...I feel its time, I wanna be with someone but I guess I'm not lucky in that part...

15. I want to be a millionaire so I can change people's lives including mine. I wanna help my family, relatives, friends and all those in need, that's why tumataya ako parati ng lotto malay natin swertihin, kaso olats pa, ewan ko lang bukas baka manalo na. Feeling ko naman mananalo talaga ako.

16. I'm very emotional, I tend to miss the places I have been and the friends I left behind. I actually feel bad each time I think of Cebu City because I love that place so much and I feel bad that I'm away...

17. I wanna enroll in a culinary school and put-up my own restaurant very soon, kelangan na lang pera...

18. Each time I hear my favorite songs, I remember my past, the things that made me what I am today...the people that touched my life and the people I left behind...

19. I'm a very dedicated lover close to being stupid. When I'm inlove I give everything, kahit pa kawawain ako ok lang.

20. Fantasy ko maging member ng Mafia or Russian Mob...

21. I love my friends so much, for me they are like precious diamonds rare and should be treasured...

22. I dont like eating chocolate bars, pero love ko chocolate cake & chocolate ice cream...

23. Madaling mag-init ulo ko and I tend to utter bad things and bad words, but I can easily be calmed and can show remorse and compassion.

24. I love going out during weekends, have fun and enjoy life. Watch and meet new people.

25. Inspite of the bad things about me, I stil consider myself a good person :)

monday feeling sunday

2009-03-09T23:43:00.003+08:00

finally my friend from the states arrived, she has been away for 8 long years working as a nurse in Maryland...and indeed things are so much different when she left...

things are now so much more expensive, manila is a lot more crowded and more dangerous (in fact just last week a lady from their bldg/condo was robbed and stabbed to death by some akyat-bahay gang) so f*ck#ng scary!!!!

anyways, i got the camera that i asked her to buy for me, i requested for her to buy one for me because there's a sale in walmart and it's so very cheap (i got it for Php4600 while in pinas its around 10k) and of course she gave me a very nice polo shirt as a pasalubong :)

then as scheduled, we went to a comedy bar in QC, laffline to be exact. as usual and as expected and as i mentioned, its f*ck#ng expensive lolz! entrance fee isPhp300 per person and it's non-consumable, plus the drinks/beer is around Php76 per bottle. now, how's that? how are you supposed to have fun with those prices..tsk....

now i guess/hope my companions had a great time, i think they have because they were laughing their lungs out with those skits of gay perfomers...

and oh ethel booba was there wearing a piece of clothing that almost shows her nipple, im sure in just a very slight wrong move her entire boobs will pop-out because it was so huge~!

i'm well

2009-03-06T13:36:00.003+08:00

okidoki...

things are better with me, i'm finally recovering from being sick again and it's not flu or cold or anything like that...this time it's tonsilitis. oh yeah, no wonder it was too painful to swallow, i had fever, headache and chilling. but now i'm a lot better, after almost throwing-up from that 5oo mg antibiotics i took (whew it was big)...

tonight i'm gonna be back to work and i'm sure it's going to be a mess like always...

just minutes ago i saw the news on tv that francis magalona passed away....my prayers are with him and his family...it just makes me wonder and realize how fragile our lives are, we just don't what will happen to us tomorrow or we don't know when or how our life is going to end...all we can do is enjoy our lives, make the most of what we have and do our best not live with regrets because as i said we just don't know what will happen next...let's just keep those prayers and share the love we have in our hearts...so that incase we face our creator sooner than we think, we can give him some reasons why our life was worth living for...

2009-03-03T23:02:00.003+08:00

I just can't believe I'm sick again...I'm weak again, cold again...

I thought it was over until I woke up this afternoon and felt a little pain in my throat when I swallow. I still did my usual stuff.. food, smoke and took bath..but now it's so different...I feel kinda dizzy, my head is heavy and sooo cold...

I can't go home though, I still need to work cuz I have been absent last week already for (again) being sick.

Maybe it's the weather again? or a virus I catched here at work cuz almost everyone has been sick or sneezing...

I can't be sick anymore...there's so much to do.

2009-03-03T01:14:00.002+08:00

First of all I'm happy :) for some reasons I'm now able to access blogspot here at work yey!!! Maybe they realized that blogspot doesn't do any harm to mankind...it infact enlightens and releases stress/topak in someways lolz!!!

Anyways, I think a couple of months ago I added a widget here on my blog, it called Globe Trackr, the widget simply tracks the visitors here and it displays the country where they are from. And on my previous post I mentioned that I'm delighted to find out that some people actually wasted some of their time to check this blog (again thanks even if you don't read any of these). But then again, today I checked and found out more, as in more countries!!! I saw Turkey, Indonesia, China, Canada, USA and Romania!!! IS THIS FOR REAL??? OR MAYBE THE WIDGET IS FOOLING AROUND WITH ME!!!

I mean why??? hahahaha, is this blog interesting??? mmm to me of course yes, to others? mmm I dunno...maybe not...

Sunday.... boring as usual..

Worst thing is I had to see my dentist again to fix something and yes I got wounded again.

Other than that, I'm excited because an old friend is coming home and I am going to see her this coming Saturday. She's a nurse in the states and has not come home for 8 long years. We're gonna go out, eat and have fun and hopefully I will not get drunk. I will also get my new camera.

I don't know what to say anymore, its freaking boring...

I understand that they have blocked:

friendster

myspace

facebook

multiply

but blocking blogspot, livejournal, ebay and sulit.ph???? WTF!!!!! I don't see the reason...is it just power tripping? did they block it because people aren't working anymore and have always been busy blogging or checking ebay???

SUMMER....is almost here...

I can now feel it, can now taste it..

It's freaking humid everywhere including my room and I hate it so much. And I'm still sick...Yes it's confirmed that I catched a cold. One thing I don't like about living here in Manila is during the summer, it's so humid and I get sick each time the weather changes. A few days ago I was thinking why I got sick again, then I realized it's the weather again, it's almost summer.

I used to love summer so much a few years ago when I was still living in the wonderful island of Cebu. Summer there is fun, the streets and the malls are not crowded and life seems so easy. Add to that, I'm always at the beach because the nice beaches are only a few minutes away from the city. Oh God I miss Cebu....I miss eating puso & barb-q, lechon and chicharon....I miss strolling the streets of Urgello where I lived for years lolz! I miss eating at Larsian, or simply hanging-out everywhere from dunkin donuts fuente to mcdo jones to national bookstore mango to SM or Ayala....

Cebu will always be my "home", it's just sad that my life is now here in Manila...Manila is not that bad because I got wonderful friends here as well and a good job...it's just that I miss the south...to a point that I get hurt thinking that I'm away...

slightly

2009-02-24T16:58:00.004+08:00

slightly better, just very slightly better...

that's how i am at this time, still on meds but still can't sleep well and i honestly don't know why..

i'm still weak, i'm still cold, i'm still dizzy...

but i have to move because staying weak won't do any good, i have to keep on going...i have to work, i need to pay bills..
i need to earn, i need to survive...

i know i'm tired, i know i'm bored...but at the moment i do not have much choices..i need to go on with everything, with all the load...

i know i'm bored and wants some change, but not yet, not right away...

there are plans, good plans yet things should be implemented in the right time, they should not be rushed...

there's so much ahead for me...life's not fair, anyone who says it is, is a hypocrite...

life could be fun and life could be lonely...but we always have to move on and hope for good things because there is so much out there, and not all bring pain...

2009-02-24T01:20:00.006+08:00

I'm sick.

I didn't go to work and didn't even bathe (yeah that ewww) but what can I do? last night I was so cold and shaking as if I was in middle of Alaska or something...

I was thinking if it was because of my tooth extraction, the fact that my gums were still bleeding and there I was puffing a cigarette...hard headed full!

Or maybe I catched a caugh and a cold...

But whatever...

Anyways...the jackpot of the 6/49 lotto has finally been won. A cool 347 million pesos won by two persons...and there..the end of my fantasy.. wahhhhhhh bye my millions... but hey, there's always the next draw.

But right now, I'm sick..I'm weak..I'm cold...

make-over

2009-02-22T23:26:00.005+08:00

before I start with the things that happened today, sunday...forget saturday cuz it was so awful, the power was out from 2pm to 4am as in dawn tsk...they said some transformers exploded or whatever and it took them forever to repair...

OK, i added a widget here in my blog, it's globetrackr just to know if someone out there checks my stuff just for the sake of nothing lolz! and amazingly i got some checkers from US and Korea!!!! would you believe that? yey, whoever you are thank you for dropping by and next time, maybe you can say a little hello :)

now back to the main reason why i'm blogging today...finally i went to see my dentist (which happens to be my cousin ate baby) after months of canceling and rescheduling..i had a couple of molars removed arghhhh yes it was awfully painful because last night i had a great ritual in preparation for it, we consumed a bottle of matador brandy, oh yes one cool bottle to help me sleep (kasi brownout nga lintek antagal magkaroon ng kuryente madaling araw na) so it was sooooo awwwwww!!!

then after yelling and spitting some bloodyish stuff and ewwwwish redish thing from my mouth, the torture was over and i proceeded with my medication..

medication no.1 - chocolate ice cream. oh yeah, that's what everybody said to be the first thing to do, eat some ice cream to decrease the swelling. oh yeah, it was good even if my mouth was still numb because of that something my ate injected in my gums..

medication no.2 - pork adobo and rice. oh yeah again...paul cooked some adobo, eh tumambay dito, ayun nautusan...

medication no. 3 - instant pancit canton and skyflakes. it was almost midnight and i was hungy again..

the result? mmmm my gums are still kinda bleeding..

2009-02-19T02:13:00.002+08:00

My Oh My!!!! I'm gaining weight and it looks like there's no stopping....I thought toning down was going to be my new year's resolution (as if I have followed all the resolutions I made duh!) but then tao lang ako...I get hungry, I crave...

First thing I kicked out was beer, NO MORE BEER, instead I chose Vodka or Gin and mix with with orange juice or something (I tried mixing vodka with Gatorade...bad idea)

Well, I'm half way thru this week already and as usual there's nothing much to tell except for the bad food that our caterer here at work have prepared. I thought it would be good cuz it means I won't be eating much, and I was wrong...I bought sisig again, yes that deadly sisig at Dell's, the canteen on the 10th floor of this building...It was actually ohhh-sum, sisig is my comfort food...yung tipong tinotopak ako at kelangan mawala ang topak, I'll just eat a good tasting sisig and for sure I'll be alright :)

And before I forget, the LOTTTTOOOOOOOOOO the jackpot prize is now a stunning 250 million pesos,... whoooooaaaaaaaa give me that moneeeeeyyyyyy....

I hope that someone would win that pot already so that I can stop fantasizing, syet! syet! syet!!!!! but WTF tataya pa rin ako bukas....

a spark of hope...

2009-02-18T00:20:00.004+08:00

i hate chain emails, specially when it says you have to forward it to 10 or more persons in an hour or else a badluck will happen to you whatsoever......i normally delete those mails the moment i get them from friends (oh come on friends stop doing it already!!!) and i do not read them at all...

but there was one email i saw in my yahoo account today, it's an email from my dear cousin dinah. i thought it was just one of those crappy mails cuz it went straight to my spam folder (or maybe it trully is...) the email just daid "fwd:" since it's from dinah i read it cuz my cousin do not normally forward garbage... and email said...

"God saw you struggling (for something), God said it's over, a blessing is on it's way..."

it is kind of deep because we trully cannot interpret exactly God's messages or his mysterious ways of letting us now those messages...this one came as an email...

funny because i was or i am really bothered by something...i have so much in my mind that i find it hard to sleep, and i have to take something that would make my mind calm and rest...in fact today i only have less than 5 hours of sleep, i've always been thinking of my plans, plans that still need to be started but have not because of so many things that goes along the way and one of them is the global financial mess...

i have lately been pre-occupied on making some changes in my life and the lives of the people i love, i planned to go abroad to seek for a better tomorrow for us all.. tried my luck at lotto because who knows tomorrow i'd be a millionaire...oh yeah, my problem is money...money, money, money...like you and the rest of them all... i know things would be different if i have lots of money....

but in my heart, there is something that tells me that money is not the answer to these dilemmas...i feel like you know...i can live with what i have right now...i can be happy...without having more...

but other times...i have to face reality...that there are lots of things i need to do, i need to achieve before it's too late....the struggle continues...

i hope that indeed a blessing is on its way...

ng mawala ang aking pitsel

2009-02-15T23:16:00.002+08:00

It was a boring Sunday evening...we decided to have a little drink pampatulog lang so to speak... good thing there is a few giniling left over from the dinner a while ago and my buddy cooked some squid balls...then we realized the pitsel is missing....oh yeah my plastic pitsel....

we looked everywhere...turned the ref upside down...the kitchen...everywhere but it's gone...

i'm thingking maybe, by mistake i throw it at the garbage bag when i was drunk or something...the thing is it's gone...gone, gone, gone...

kaya ayun, we cut the neck of the coca cola bottle and made it our temporary-improvised pitsel..and sooooo goes the boring sunday...
and tomorrow? ahhh work again....

i still wasn't able to drop by at the agency and process my papers for my application abroad, i was thinkin it might not be the best idea today cuz of this global financial mess....

pffftttt...boring sunday...talk to you next time :)

V-DAY NA DAW

2009-02-14T00:52:00.002+08:00

IIITTTT'''''SSSSSSS FFFRRRRIIIIIDDDDAAAAYYYYYY YEHEYYYYY!!!!

and a day before valentine's day (as if i care duh!) i've never been a fan of v-day (luzah?) i have to admit that sometimes i get kinda envious of some people getting busy on buying chocolates and flowers for their partners, but what the heck, giving away thouse stuffs need not to be vday, i can always do it any day i want...

anyways, i'm kinda pissed that the plan of going to enchanted kingdom has been canceled argggg!!! my company planned on going to EK this weekend and we were all thrilled (including me cuz i haven't been there yet, i dunno, i've always said no to my friends inviting me there) but this time i really planned to go and even told my nephews and nieces that i might tag some of them along (my nephew ryan even bought a new jacket for this trip huh!) but gee!!! budget and time constraints, it's now canceled...to h*ll with them...

what am i up to this valentine's day? well im seeing my dentist for one...boring boring boring...i can't even get out with some friends... maybe if my dentist don't show-up i'll just get drunk (again)

174 MILLION PLUS JACKPOT

2009-02-13T07:34:00.002+08:00

WALA PA RING NANANALOOOOO!!!!!!

The jackpot price is now 174 million pesos plus!!! and nobody won it yet...now I'm nervous, is it going to me??? Oh God I hope not...cuz I don't know what's gonna happen, what am I going to do with that kind of money???

Oh my gulay!!! in my wildest daydream, If I get all that cash....tsk.. I can picture myself on the plane going abroad for a while to hide and to pamper myself...sleep in the best bed in the world and wake up with my face on the smoothest and softest pillow ever..with white pillowcases and white matresses...then get out of bed and watch the sunrise as the porch of my room faces the sea....then my butler will serve me my breakfast, coffee...omelet...bacon...eggs...fresh fruit juice....

then...i'll stroll on the beach with the light of the sun reflecting the white sand...

WAKE UPPPP!!!! UGH!!!!!

2009-02-11T23:51:00.002+08:00

AHHHH BAD DAYYYYY!!!!

I thought everything's gonna be just fine because finally I was able to sleep long enough to reboot my brain...yeah that's what I thought....

This is probably one of the worst night of me going to work...the bus that I took got stucked in a traffic and I was running late....I went off the bus and took a cab so I can make it on time and still have my attendance bonus (3k din yun less tax, sayang..pambayad na yun ng internet na malapit ng ma-suspend after 2 months of late payment, bayad na yun ng bill ko sa tubig at dagdag na rin para bayad sa dentist ko)

Then that stupid taxi driver kinuha pa ang 15 pesos kung sukli sa taxi... bwiseeettt.....

Anyways, I still made it on time at work, that's all that matters...It's wednesday and I'm halfway thru this week and tomorrow I'm gonna try my luck again to win that lotto jackpot which have fired up to 145 million pesos now... I actually prayed yesterday...I said God oh God if you're gonna let me win that jackpot please let me win it now...not next week or next month...that money is over 100 million already and it's way to big, if it increases or reaches 200 million, I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do with it or how to handle that big cash...I only need a few of it huhuhuhuhu!!!! I just don't know but I have this gut feeling that I am going to win something....if not that jackpot I feel there is something....

Pag nanalo ako, pramis lahat ng bumasa nitong blog na to babalatuhan ko, just drop a message on how to get in touch with you....:))

Tired

2009-02-10T03:02:00.004+08:00

I promised myself that I'll be honest and make this blog more personal, so here I go...

Honestly, at this point I am kind of tired of the same thing that I do, day after day...week after week...month after month...

I want to do something different yet I do not have much choice at this time. Basically because of this Global Financial Sh*t that's affecting everyone..I wanted to leave the country and work abroad so I can finally do something for a change, I wanna change my life and the lives of the people I love. Though staying abroad for good is not part of my plan, I just want to work there save enough money and start my own business. My own business as in I will no longer have a boss that will pressure me, I no longer worry on asking permission if I want to take a leave, be late for work or be absent...

Right now I feel that everything's so stressful, I feel like my body is so heavy that it's hard for me to get-up and take a shower so I can take that bus and go to work again.

Or so bored that even if I don't want to go work, I can't stay at home either cuz I feel like I'm gonna be choked if I don't see nothing but the four corners of my room...

I hope somebody can provide the exact answers to this dilemma... I wish that right now I could have a better choice....Certain things are becoming pointless, it's like no matter what I do or how hard I struggle, I still end up in the same hole... Oh God I'm not complaining...please don't punish me...I guess I'm looking for more meaning...I guess I just want to have certain changes...for the better...for something new...

A movie I like

2009-02-09T00:15:00.004+08:00

Beast Stalker: Starring Nicolas Tse

I have never really got over my fascination of the Chinese Movies. Eversince I was a little kid I've always loved these type of movies we filipinos call "karate" pertaining to the martial arts films from the Hongkong Cinema. I am still a fan of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Lee and the rest...

Now, the latest movie that I've watched is this suspense/action/drama flick that starred the Hongkong Cantopop Star Nicolas Tse. Nicolas can be considered a newbie in the Hongkong Entertainment Industry yet he already has made his mark. This film has a very good plot, it tackles the story of several individual connected to each other by an accident. It talks about love and redemption. A very touching story about a mother's love to her daughter, a husband's devotion to his wife and a cop's struggle for guilt and redemption. A trully must see film.

This one isn't so hard to find. I just got the copy from the sidewalk, of course a pirated one.

i will be a millionaire

2009-02-07T04:11:00.004+08:00

well, that's just a dream... for now??? who knows...

lately i have been daydreaming that im gonna win the jackpot and as of today feb 6 the jackpot price is over 115 million pesos...and in my dream i have already planned what i am going to do with my millions...as i said who knows....so there i go every tuesdays, thursdays and sundays...the scheduled draw of pcso's 6/49 lotto draw...pila ako dun baka sakaling manalo and then experience the life that only happens in my wildest dreams...

when i get my winnings i will stop working for at least a month so i can give myself a break, for nearly two decades i have not stopped working and have always struggled to survive the chaos of an ordinary jolog's life, i feel it's about time for some major-kick-ass changes...

then after a month of slacking and spending and shopping and pampering and clubbing and touring and spending....i will get back to my feet and face my new life, the life of the elite, the privileged, the chosen few, the special ones, the rich ones (lolz can somebody slap me bwahahaha)...and then to give my life more meaning.... i will...

...go back to school...probably culinary school and bartending so i can put-up my own restobar, i have always wanted to have this type of business, so that my talent in cooking and drink-mixing will be put on good use...

...share my blessings to those in need...my cousins and relatives, my friends, those who helped my in the past, those who touched my life in a lot of ways, those i meet on the streets, those i see on tv and those who have dreams that i can help realize...

...build a church or at least renovate some...

...donate to schools probably schools of the less fortunate...kahit manlang isang toneladang damit na ukay-ukay....

...of course pamper my parents specially my mom who have been through hell and back because of me...

...take care of my adopted siblings L & J, make sure they finish their studies and their future is secured...

...give money to edgar g. so he can finally put-up his own business and stay in one place...

...hire the best lawyer for the case of my cousin who have been stabbed to death by a ruthless, lost soul named george and make sure he stays in jail...

and finally, start a non-profit organization that would benefit the needy, most specially legal assistance for those innocent people being persecuted but can't afford to defend themselves...

p.s. i will be good...i will be simple...i'll do my best to stay humble...mahirap na makidnap...

Finding Chuckie

2009-01-30T04:31:00.003+08:00

A boring day at work....I thought of searching for people I have not seen in a very long time like my long lost friends, but I ended up reading some articles about former mainstays of "That's Entertainment" and I browsed the blogsite of Chuckie Dreyfuss ( I think I found this website before but I wasn't a blogger at that time)..

So here we go, For those who do not know or remember Chuckie... He was a "Big Deal Child Actor" who got the attention of the country via the movie "Idol" starring the late actor Rudy Fernandez. I was also a little boy at that time but I remember that movie very well. My mom and dad took me with them to watch that movie and even as a young boy I was impressed of how natural he was on that role....

Then came That's Entertainment and the movies he made in Regal Films...but suddenly he was out of the limelight and people have always wondered whatever happened to Chuckie? Did he left for the US like most of local actors do when they ran out of project? The answer is a big NO, he never left the country or the industry , infact he has become busier than he was. Chuckie now manages his own company called "CD Sound Labs" together with a business partner, the company is a digital recording studio founded in they year 2000. And currently Chuckie is doing lots of project with ABS-CBN, GMA Network and other big time companies.

Oh, and before I forget, he's now happily married with two kids a boy and a girl. You can check his blog here.

2008-12-27T00:59:00.002+08:00

Chrismas is finally over....and it was wonderful as always..

Now, we had our Christmas Party at the (In)Famous Embassy Super Club in The Fort. See the pic on the left? that's me and my friend Kel singing "time of our life" soundtrack of the movie "Dirty Dancing", our theme for the party is retro so the ambiance is from the 70's, 80's and 90's..

It was my first to go to that club and I was kinda excited maybe because I've heard a lot of things about that place, stories of the troubles of Borgy Manotoc, the Gucci Gang's alleged "scandal", the rumoured drug use on its private rooms etc...

Well, the place is actually nice, they got a separate room for smokers and the place for dancing is smoke free (unless the smokers area is closed people can smoke anywhere). I also saw the way going to the private rooms though I did not go inside any room. But hey, the drinks are outrageously expensive tsk... a bottle of SanMig Light would cost you P120, a bottle of Mineral Water is P75 and a glass of cocktail drink is P250, now what is that!!!!!

my trip

2008-12-05T06:06:00.003+08:00

On my last blog I mentioned that I was heading for cebu after 4 long years, and so I did... It was a very exhausting vacation yet extraordinarily memorable. I was able to see some of my old friends and surprisingly made new ones. Special mention to those guys on the pic who made my stay there exciting and unforgettable. (Thanks Evelyn, Don, Sheryl, Delwess, Dave & my cousin Glen who is behind the camera).

I know realized that my life is really here now in Manila, though a part me will always be a cebuano "by choice", I wish I could stay in two places at one time....

I missed the food so I really took my time in satisfying the 4 year cravings of Steam Rice, Ngohiong, Grilled Stuff at AAs and of course the famous Lechon Cebu. Things have also changed when it comes to nightlife, most of the place I used to hang-out have closed (Jukebox, Ratsky, Sinners & Saints, Kukais etc...) there is nightlife now in Mango Avenue which is equally exciting.

I spent my first night at some bars just behind the former Eastwest Cafe where Redhorse is cheap lolz! then tried the comedy bar 22nd street just beside the National Bookstore in Mango Ave. And the last destination on my last night is still in Mango Ave, the YO.U Bar and Club Autoshop.

Too bad I have to leave, too bad I do not belong there anymore....I miss the life there, the city and the simplicity...as the song says..."some good things never last"... painful but I have to turn my back again to face reality and catch my flight...

but i left a promise which i intend to keep..."i'll be back...."

shifting

2008-11-27T03:15:00.003+08:00

what i'm trying to do is make this blog a bit personal cuz ive been posting lots of things here and they were all just for fun, so im gonna start with this entry...

finally, im leaving for cebu city...yes after 4 long years im finally going back "home", my second home. the wonderful place where i spent 15 wonderful years, the place that molded me to the person i am right now... cebu will always be special and whatever happens i will always go back...

my flight is at 10am thursday and im so excited that i wasnt able to sleep well, came to work with just 4 hours of sleep and brought my stuff with me and at 7am i'll be on my way to the airport..

im thinking of the things that i wanna do when i get there... see old friends, go to the places where i used to hang-out, eat at larsian, eat ngohiong, sutukil ahhhh...can't wait..

i have posted a video about this boy previously, Andrew Johnston the young soprano constestant of the bristih television show "britains got talent". on his first audition he was a very shy 13 year old boy, shaking and without confidence...he narrated the bullying he got from school because of the type of songs he sing...

here in this latest video, the grand final performance, he sang the same song when he first auditioned..but in a very very different way..the boy has evolved from a shy kid to an astonishing singer..he sings like an angel and will surely put a tear in your eyes...

he finished third place...

ok, here is something new i found online, again it's from Britain's Got Talent...for those who know nothing about the show, it's a competions of not just singing but different acts (same style as the U.S. version) where the auditions are being done in front of a live audience....

i have seen remarkable talents from that show, namely Paul Potts, the first winner, the latest child wonder, an incredibly talented boy named Andrew Johnston (see my previous post with the video) and the OFW Madonna Decena...

Well, here's the new one...not a singer but a dance act, a dynamic duo of Indians who energetically danced Michael Jackson's Billy Jean...check the reaction of the judges and the audience....

OK OK OK!!!!!I'M BACK...

It's been ages since I last updated my blog, the reason is that blogspot has been blocked in our office and it's there where I do my updates because the only thing I do when I get home is sleep huh!

I also decided to stop blogging that much about American Idol, I don't know why...it's not because Ramiele Malubay is out already, I guess I got bored. Seems like the show has lots its touch on offering something different. Seems like each time I sit in front of my TV to watch it, I already know what they're going to do and how they are going to do it...do, I quit :(

But hey, the one thing I haven't lost interest in is watching British talent shows. I really love Brits hahahaha...I mean forget the Spice Girls..I'm saying in general... I love their humor and they could be direct and rough but they are could be very sensitive too..too bad none of their shows are being shown locally...I'm tired of this IDOL franchises tsk... why not try X-Factor or Britain's Got Talent (by the way the I find the american version extremely boring)

Now, here's a couple of Brits I currently admire to the fullest...

First is Paul Potts...the first winner of Britains Got Talent. Pott's is just an ordinary guy, a car phone sales man who has a passion for Opera...as Simon Cowell said a guy who isn't a professional, has a talent, isn't aware of it, has a regular job and and they see something else..check the video and see for yourself..

Another one is Andrew Johnston, the latest discovery of BGT(britains got talent), my oh my! the kid sings like an angel...he's so nervous and shaking and even narrated the bullying he got from school because people there thought he was singing the wrong songs. See for yourself and witness the birth of a Star :)

America finally said goodbye to David Hernandez..after wednesday's elimination night and over 29 million votes..it was the end of his journey on Idol...

David Hernandez only has one regret, following his elimination from “American Idol” on Wednesday night — and it has nothing to do with the rumors from his past.
“I’m not ashamed of anything I’ve done in my past,” Hernandez told reporters on Thursday morning. “The only thing I was worried about was my song selection.”
Hernandez, who was sent packing this week following his performance of The Beatles’ “I Saw Her Standing There,” is confident it was his performance — and not the rumors from his past — that ended his “Idol” ride.

The journey continues for our pride Ramiele Malubay....now, she's been given a chance to
redeem herself after the dissapointing performance of "In my life"

Ramiele really needs help on the type of songs she chooses and the arrangement of songs..as Simon Cowell said "there is mo much more in her

IDOL top TWELVE! Lennon-McCartney Music

ok, the grand showdown has started, top 12 and new set...but some performances are disappointing.... and others were just ok... here a are some of them singing Lennon-McCartney songs ...

JASON CASTRO

Jason Castro singing "if i fell"

The judges were not impressed but what the heck, i loved the her rendition. For the mp3 file, click the link below

If I fell (right click then save target as)

DAVID COOK

I think David Cook gave the best performance for the night, the voice..the song and the confidence.. here's a link to the mp3: Eleanor Rigby

Now, for Ramiele Malubay & David Archuleta...

I don't wanna post their videos at this time because I'm kinda disappointed with their performances...with Ramiele, she obviously has a very good voice but CAN SOMEBODY TELL HER TO PLEASE PLEASE CHOOSE THE RIGHT SONG!!!!I'm getting nervous that she might be voted out pretty soon..

And For David A??? ahhh he was a mess that night...

It was the end of the road for the four Idol hopefuls. I personally think Danny Noriega should have been given a chance rather than Chikezie Eze. Dany is loud and talented and has a mad attitude it would be fun to watch more of him on the show.

And KadyMalloy obviously is expected to be axed same as Luke Menard they seem to lack the appeal and personality for them to stay and sail on to the rest of the competition.

And Asia'h? I think this girl is really talented and should have stayed rather than Kristy Lee Cook...Simon Cowell is right she is forgettable, I can't even remember her name and have googled just to get her complete name..

David Hernandez...from stripper to American Idol..
what's his story

Idol 7's 3rd Elemination Performances Babes

2008-03-07T05:48:00.002+08:00

The Second batch for this week...

Syesha Mercado singing Saving all my love by Whitney Houston...
This is an awesome performance for me cuz I think this girl is good and I love the song...though Simon Cowell didn't share the same view...

Now, one of this season's sweetheart...Brooke White..
I just love the tone of her voice, absolutely not a belter but she reminds me of the style of Diana King...

Ramiele Malubay.. Against All Odds..
This is one of my very very favorite song...I loved it when Scott Savol sang it on the past season of Idol..but with Ramiele, it was okay...I mean she obviously has a very big and wonderful voice but she's kinda shy and needs to work more on her confidence...

Amanda Overmyer..My favorite Nurse...
Look at her now, she's very pretty with simplier hair...and the performance was awesome...
