Time Travel

Masuwerte ako dahil pinanganak ako sa pagitan ng Generations Y at Z. Hindi ko alam kung anung klase ng buhay meron ang mga pilipino noon bago mag deklara si Marcos ng Martial Law. Sabi nila pagkatapos ng Martial Law, wala naman daw pinagbago, mas lumala pa. Lumala nga ba?

Sa pagkakaalala ko, ang kuryente noon ay para lang sa may mga sinasabi sa buhay. Malas lang wala kaming sinasabi, wala rin kaming kuryente. Maliban sa pagiging madungis at puno ng kulangot ang ilong paggising sa umaga, wala naman akong reklamo sa gasera. Enjoy akong magbasa ng komiks sa gabi kahit may nakikibasang gamo-gamo. Limang taon pa lang ako paborito ko ng basahin ang Hiwaga, Engkantada, Shocker, Thriller, Fantasy at iba pang komiks na may kaparehong tema. Napakabata ko pa para mahilig sa mga kababalaghan. Sa komiks ko nalaman ang mga palatandaan na ang tao ay isang aswang kung: baliktad ang repleksyon mo sa mata nito, wala itong kanal sa pagitan ng ilong at bibig (tulad ni Voldemort), hindi lumalabas ng bahay sa araw. Nakakahawa daw ang pagiging aswang. Una kung nakalmot ka nito at pangalawa kung nakakain ka ng pagkaing may halong laway ng aswang. Ang sabi pa ng matatanda, lilitaw lang ang pagiging aswang ng isang tao pagsapit kanyang ika-18 na kaarawan. Kabado ako nun na baka magtransform ako pag 18 ko. Lalo na't pinanganak ako sa isang malayo at liblib na baryo sa Samar.

Wala akong pinalalagpas na episodes ng Gabi ng Lagim sa DZRH gamit ang nagiisa naming appliance - ang radyo. Mula sa detalyadong pagsasadula "totoo ba tong nakikita ko? isang babaeng nakaputi... pagkahaba haba ng buhok na tila gustong itago ang mukha nya... hindi ko maaninag ang mukha nya... teka... lalapit pa ko ng konte... bakit tila hindi sumasayad ang mga paa nya... at ano ito bakit wala siyang mukha aaah, hindi ko nakikita, pero nagtatakip ako ng kumot. Maraming salamat sa radyo, naging wild ang imagination ko. Oo nga pala, di ko pwedeng makalimutan ang Negra Bandida bago mag Gabi ng Lagim.


Black and white at di-pihit pa ang mga TV nun. Sa 12 inches na TV ng kapitbahay namin, hindi ko lubos maisip kung paano ko napagtyagaan manood dito ng ilang oras ng nakatayo. Sa ngalan nina Maskman, Shaider, Mask Rider Black, Ultraman at Magmaman. Lalo akong nagmukhang tanga sa suot kong animo relo na gawa mula sa binilog na palara... sabay sigaw ng AURA MASK!!! Naaliw ako kay Cedie. Naiyak kay Remi. Naawa kay Princess Sarah. Namangha kay Peter Pan. At ang pinaka na nabilib ako, nagtatagalog sila.

High School ako nang muling sakupin ng Japan ang Pilipinas - ito ay ng maganap ang pinakamalupit na anime invasion. Una kong kinahumalingan ang BT X. Mas tumatatak pa sa isip ko ang mga pangalan nina Fao at BT Jutaime, Ron at BT Raido, Hokuto at BT Max, Karen at BT X kesa sa leksyon namin sa history. Kapag uwian galing eskwela, nag susuper saiayan ako para maabutan ko ang Dragon Ball Z at Hunter x Hunter. Bakit kasi hindi ko na predict na mauuso ang youtube pagdating ng araw.

Hindi pa affordable ang mag cellphones noon. Mayayaman lang ang nakakabili ng Nokia 3310. Hindi pa pinakikilala sa amin ang internet. Pag may assignment, dalawa lang ang choices: textbooks o library. Pero para sakin, nerd classmate equals google. Tutal di rin naman ako nakikipag kompetensya sa medalya, balato na lang nila sa kin yung maipasa ko ang buong school year sa tulong nila.


After college na ng umusbong ang Friendster, Myspace, Hi-5, Multiply at ang pinakahuli nga ay ang Facebook at Twitter. Hindi ko maeenjoy ang mga ito kung hindi ko naranasan noon ang payak na pamumuhay. Mula sa panahon na walang kuryente, walang TV, walang sine, walang cellphones. Masaya na ko noon sa radyo. What more pa ngayon eh may computer na ako. Hindi na talaga mapigilan ang pag unlad ng teknolohiya.


Ang inaabangan ko na lang ngayon eh yung mauso na ang holograms, teleportations, time travel, robot na mga katulong. Yung panahon na kung saan ang earth ay isa ng Wi-fi zone. May mga shopping malls na sa moon. Ang importation at exportation ay planet to planet o galaxy to galaxy. At ang lahat ng tao ay marunong ng summoning technique.

Does God Exist?

An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the Problem Science has with GOD, the ALMIGHTY. He asked one of his New Christian Students to stand and . . .

Professor : You are a Christian, aren't you, son ?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor : So, you Believe in GOD ?
Student : Absolutely, sir.
Professor : Is GOD Good ?
Student : Sure.
Professor : Is GOD ALL - POWERFUL ?
Student : Yes.
Professor : My Brother died of Cancer even though he Prayed to GOD to Heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn't. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Student was silent )

Professor : You can't answer, can you ? Let's start again, Young Fella. Is GOD Good?

Student : Yes.
Professor : Is Satan good ?
Student : No.
Professor : Where does Satan come from ?
Student : From . . . GOD . .
Professor : That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this World?
Student : Yes.
Professor : Evil is everywhere, isn't it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?
Student : Yes.
Professor : So who created evil ?

(Student did not answer)

Professor : Is there Sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the World, don't they?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor : So, who Created them ?

(Student had no answer)

Professor : Science says you have 5 Senses you use to Identify and Observe the World around you. Tell me, son . . . Have you ever Seen GOD?
Student : No, sir.
Professor : Tell us if you have ever Heard your GOD?
Student : No , sir.
Professor : Have you ever Felt your GOD, Tasted your GOD, Smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any Sensory Perception of GOD for that matter?
Student : No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.
Professor : Yet you still Believe in HIM?
Student : Yes.
Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student : Nothing. I only have my Faith.
Professor : Yes, Faith. And that is the Problem Science has.

Student : Professor, is there such a thing as Heat?
Professor : Yes.
Student : And is there such a thing as Cold?
Professor : Yes.
Student : No, sir. There isn't.

(The Lecture Theatre became very quiet with this turn of events )

Student : Sir, you can have Lots of Heat, even More Heat, Superheat, Mega Heat, White Heat, a Little Heat or No Heat.
But we don't have anything called Cold. We can hit 458 Degrees below Zero which is No Heat, but we can't go any further after that.

There is no such thing as Cold. Cold is only a Word we use to describe the Absence of Heat. We cannot Measure Cold.
Heat is Energy. Cold is Not the Opposite of Heat, sir, just the Absence of it.

(There was Pin-Drop Silence in the Lecture Theatre )

Student : What about Darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as Darkness?
Professor : Yes. What is Night if there isn't Darkness?
Student : You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the Absence of Something. You can have Low Light, Normal Light, Bright Light, Flashing Light . . .

But if you have No Light constantly, you have nothing and its called Darkness, isn't it? In reality, Darkness isn't. If it is, were you would be able to make Darkness Darker, wouldn't you?
Professor : So what is the point you are making, Young Man ?
Student : Sir, my point is your Philosophical Premise is flawed.
Professor : Flawed ? Can you explain how?
Student : Sir, you are working on the Premise of Duality.
You argue there is Life and then there is Death, a Good GOD and a Bad GOD. You are viewing the Concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure.

Sir, Science can't even explain a Thought. It uses Electricity and Magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.

To view Death as the Opposite of Life is to be ignorant of the fact that Death cannot exist as a Substantive Thing.
Death is Not the Opposite of Life: just the Absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your Students that they evolved from a Monkey?
Professor : If you are referring to the Natural Evolutionary Process, yes, of course, I do.
Student : Have you ever observed Evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his head with a Smile, beginning to realize where the Argument was going )

Student : Since no one has ever observed the Process of Evolution at work and Cannot even prove that this Process is an On-Going Endeavor. Are you not teaching your Opinion, sir?

Are you not a Scientist but a Preacher?

(The Class was in Uproar )

Student : Is there anyone in the Class who has ever seen the Professor's Brain?

(The Class broke out into Laughter )

Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's Brain, Felt it, touched or Smelt it? . . .

No one appears to have done so. So, according to the Established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that You have No Brain, sir.
With all due respect, sir, how do we then Trust your Lectures, sir?

(The Room was Silent. The Professor stared at the Student, his face unfathomable)

Professor : I guess you'll have to take them on Faith, son.
Student : That is it sir . . . Exactly ! The Link between Man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that Keeps Things Alive and Moving.

GUESS WHO THE STUDENT WAS..?

It was Albert Einstein. :)

A.B. Normal

ABNORMAL BA KO?

Sabi nila kung naiiba ka raw sa karamihan, hindi ka normal. Kung karamihan nahuhumaling kay Justin Bieber pero ikaw solid Freddie Aguilar pa rin – abnormal ka. Kung karamihan nagsusuot na ng skinny jeans pero ikaw bell bottom pa rin – abnormal ka. Kung karamihan kalbo pero ikaw long-hair – abnormal ka.

Sa loob ng LRT feeling ko normal ang lahat.... maliban sa akin...

Pag tumingin ako sa kaliwa, si ate may nakasalpak na earphone sa tenga, may hawak na cellphone, nagtetext. Pag tumingin ako sa kanan, si kuya may nakasalpak na earphone sa tenga, may hawak na cellphone, nagtetext. Pag lumingon ako sa likod, si lolo may nakasalpak na malaking headphone sa tenga, nag heheadbang...

Ako nakahawak sa safety hand drills, nag iimagine...

Meron din akong cellphone at MP3 Player. Pero sa office ko lang ginagamit. Una, para di ko marinig ang pinagttsismisan ng mga officemates ko. Pangalawa, para di ako antukin habang nagtatrabaho... Kung minsan naman, ginagamit ko din sa bus pag malayo ang byahe gaya nung pumunta kami sa Baguio...

Pero sa loob ng LRT, over-my-dead-hunky-body!!!

Kaya naman nagulat ako ng minsan may nakita akong ale (naka uniporme na sa tingin ko nagttrabaho sa bangko) na nanonood pa ng pelikula sa iPod nya... Anu to, mas trip nya manood sa ganun kalaking screen? Sarap yayain manood ng sine. Meron din mga estudyante na naglalaro naman sa cellphone at iPod nila ng Super Mario 2... sabagay yun naman talaga gamit nun... Yung iba nagppicture taking pa sa LRT, ang background billboards ng Azkals... Meron naman naka-earphone nga pero parang mini-speaker ang nakasalpaksa tenga... Di ko alam kung sinasadya iparinig sa akin na paborito nyang singer si Willie Revillame...

Ako, nakahawak pa rin sa safety hand drills at pinipilit iwasang masandalan ang magkabilang pintuan ng tren habang hinahanda ang magnetic card na gagamitin sa paglabas ng istasyon...

Minsan nagdududa ako kung magkakamag-anak ang mga kasama ko sa loob ng tren... at ako yung others pag sinasabi nilang para ka namang others... naOOP ako sa kanila... di ko masakyan ang trip nila... Para akong galing sa ibang panahon na nag time-travel sa future... di ako makarelate... Parang umatend ako sa birthday party na naka holloween costume...

Bahala na... darating ang araw na magiging katulad din siguro ako nila... Certified KAPAMILYA!!! XD

Dad's Day

While the entire archipelago is paying tribute to all the fathers in the household, I am here treating the day as rather ordinary. No matter how I try to be a part of the event, I can't actually relate myself from it – by heart.

First off, I am not a father yet. Secondly, I never had the chance to play along with my father. Not an occasion that I had the so-called bonding moment with him. I didn't feel what it is like to have a father at all. When I was a growing kid and went curious to everything, he was not there to entertain my questions. When I had myself circumcised, he was not there to give moral support. When I had a crush for the first time, he was not there to be my confidant. When I was an adolescent and started to explore on adult stuffs, he was not there to explain my limitations. As a result, I learned to be timid. I felt lost. I felt left behind.

Until I reach this age.

Part of me is envious. To the son who plays basketball with his dad. To the son who is being taught how to play guitar by his dad. To the son who is receiving monthly allowance from his dad. To the son who is being scolded because he messed up with the wrong peers. I wonder what it feels like being guided by a father.

Before my mom and dad parted their ways when I was about four years of age, I seldom see my dad at home. At night, he had to go off the shore. While during daytime, he was in the farm. Yes, he was a fisherman and a farmer at the same time. During Martial Law era, Samar was indeed a grueling place to live at. People had to really work hard to survive. The word “pleasure” has no space in everyone’s home. This might be the reason why we ended up to a broken family.

In her attempt to alleviate our status in life, my mom went to Manila and there she contracted marriage to another man. I didn't know if she was worried about us having no father to guide, either she couldn't simply carry the burden of raising us alone or she is still a woman that needs a man to live with. Be that as it may, only one thing was certain, she had put ourselves in jeopardy.

My step-dad never succeeded in his attempt to steal the role of a father to me. That probably explains why he, in turn, gave us a miserable life. He was a drunkard. My mom was a battered wife. He turned evil when he's under the influence of liquor – he respects no one. I will never forget those nights while I was on a deep sleep and suddenly awakened by a loud banging of the door and smashing of the kitchen utensils with simultaneous utterance of unremarkable words. It was consistent that every after drinking spree, he runs amok. We're all conquered by fear. We couldn't do anything as if we had no other alternative except to embrace this fate. True enough that notwithstanding our association to the umbrella of the so-called “poverty”, I did not consider it as my top problem. I could have been happier, despite of this mediocre life, had I granted instead of a happy and complete family.

At this rate, I know it's pointless to narrate further. I do not want to key in every details as these are memories not worthy to preserve for. The saga had long been laid to rest charging all to experience. After all, were it not of the struggles and sufferings, I couldn't have learned being independent.

This is now the 2^nd Season of my life story. This time, I am in control.

I may not have given the opportunity to enjoy the benefit of having a dad, but I still have the chance to prove my worth by being the best dad ever to my soon-to-be child.

Detour: E-Heads Ahead

07 MARCH 2009, 11:55 P.M., Saturday

I wonder what song is being played by Eraserheads at this very hour... Kaliwete? Magazine? Minsan? Ang Huling El Bimbo? waaaaaa bad3p naman, I wasn't able to catch the Final Set... Sayang talga... Wala kc kong sponsor ng tiket... Worse, ang mga kasama ko ay wala ring tiket... Worst, wala akong PERA... tskk pulube kaming lahat??? O sobrang kuripot lang cla at ayaw akong ilibre??? --"Mahal ng tiket baka maulit yung dati sayang lang..." "Mapapanood din naman natin sa tv yan, let's be practical, bakit pa tayo bibili ng ganun kamahal na tiket..."

The cheapest ticket is worth P400.00, that is probably 400 meters away from the stage... They assured though that the miniatures of Ely, Raymund, Marcus and Buddy will still be seen from that spot... I can afford only one ticket... The problem is I can't go alone by myself... and that settles it...

As of yesterday, my decision has become final (and executory)...

"I'm not going to the gig..."

So, from Tindahan ni Aleng Nena, I instead went Overdrive and have some Trip to Jerusalem until I reached the Alapaap...

Don’t forget to change my answers to the questions with that of yours.

1. Four places I go to, over and over:

OFFICE - constant na yan... nid ko talga bumalik-balik jan sa ayaw ko at sa gus2... kung gus2 ko pa mabuhay ng matagal sa mundong ibabaw... kung pde nga lang pumasok sa maraming office gagawin ko dahil Kayod-To-The-Max- Mode ako... marami akong binubuhay... haaaay...

Powerpoint Presentation???... tae... kaya nga di ako nag-teacher... dahil alam kong walang magandang kinabukasan naghihintay sa mga estudyante ko pag sumailalim sila sa pagtuturo ko... nde kaya ng konsensya ko isugal ang future ng mga bata para lang pagpraktisan ko...

pero di ka na bata... mataas naman IQ mo... honor student ka nga di ba??... dami mo nasasagot sa Game K N B... mas marunong ka pa sakin sa maraming bagay... bat di mo magets??.. cmon' use your head... drink WHAM...

Kindness is next to bullshitness

parang naniniwala na ko sa general connotation na ang mababait kinukuha agad ni Lord... Dinalaw ako ni Lord sa panaginip ko... kukunin nya na raw ako... sabi ko Lord naman... di ka ba naaawa sa mga maiiwan ko?? andami nilang mamamatay pag nagkataon... mawawala ang kalahati ng populasyon ng Pilipinas... di naman lahat sila mababait... unfair...

di sa maangas ako at malaki ang paniniwala ko na marami talaga nagmamahal sa kin to the extent na pag natsugi ako e sasama sila sa libing ko (literally)... alam ko yun... kasi mabait nga ako... ako ay mabait... (sang-ayon yan sa survey na isinagawa ng SWS at AGB Nielsen)

pero ang kabaitan na yun ang nagpapabagal sa paglakad ko... kahit sa pagtakbo di ko magawa... di ako makatakbo ng tuloy2x kasi everytime na may nakikita akong nadadapa, tinutulungan ko pang bumangon... minsan nga kinakailangan pang pasanin... mahirap kasi nagkakapilipilipit masel ko sa paa, alam ni Manny Pacquaio un... ganun ako...pag may nakaharang sa dinadaanan ko inaalis ko muna para ung mga nasa likuran ko na tumatakbo rin di nila ma-encounter yung harang... wala ng hassle... gustuhin ko man mandedma na lang, di ko magawa... dahil di naman ako suplado sa personal... lalong lalo na dahil sarili ko rin ang kalaban ko dun... And I find it bullshit...

Epilogue

sa huli, di ko rin naiwasan di kumain... kumain ng kumain... dahil yun ang sagot sa pagkabagot...

Fil-Am Friendship Day daw ngayon??...

Habang nagbbunyi ang mga kababayan ko sa tate dahil WALA SILANG PASOK ngayon (Independence Day, yey!! Long Live America!!!), ako e2 nid pumasok sa opisina upang magbanat ng buto at mamuhunan ng pawis para may pambili ng NFA rice...T_T... Poohtang bigas yan sinasapawan ang kasikatan ni MAHAL... Walang poknat ang pag-angat ng karir... Kung bakit kasi naispian ko pang mag migrate d2 sa Pinas... nak ng...

kung ako tatanungin mas gus2 ko mag stay sa hauz at kumanta ng "Star Spangled Banner" sa umaga bago mag Umagang Kay Ganda; sa tanghali bago mag Wowoweee, sa gabi bago mag Singing Bee; at hatinggabi bago mag Bandila (LOlz..Certified Kapamilya) habang winawagayway ang bandila ng America... awooo... kaso wala e... daming nagaantay skn na paperworks at kinakailangan talaga nila autograp ko ngayong araw na 2... "it's now or never," sabi ng mga papel... ayus lang sana kung ako ang Boss at ung mga ppirmahan ko eh mga resignation letters ng mga epal kong tauhan... un tipong walang inatupag kundi mag-AUDITION during office hours (ouch!)... at ung ibang mejo low-tech na "pacman" naman ang ginagawang past time (palibhasa kapanahunan nila nauso)... (sana wag mabasa ng boss ko 2ng post na 2 *cross-finger*) ang kaso mo, ung mga nirrush ko ngayon eh mga nka-compromise na kinakailangan tapusin within this week... Take note, last day of the week na pala ngayon... wat da.... At xmpre dahil astig sa malupet sa mabangis ako.... tadaaaaaaa wipe out na ang mga records sa table ko... kitang kita naman nagawa ko pang mag-blog... maya2x na ko uwi para kunwari nag OT...

Mejo kakaiba talaga ngayong Friday kc dederecho na ko uwi n2 ngayon sa bahay.... dapat TGIF Mode kami ngayon... unfortunately, walang dumating na "biyaya" o "hulog ng Supreme Court" mula sa kataas-taasang hukuman... not 2 mention the absence of Kajo kaya hindi pwedeng ma2loy ang pagliliwaliw na nakagawian na namin tuwing Friday...hahayz... *buntong-hininga*

Hala...Lakas pa ng ulan sa labas... tila nakikisama sa di pangkaraniwang araw na i2... what a monotonous, tedious, tiresome, dull, wearisome DAY!!... gus2 ko lang sabihin na BORING... ampucha talaga 1 week na gan2 ang routine ko... 1 week ng di nkkpaglaro ng Audition.... 1 week ng di nkkpag YM... 1 week ng di nkkapag Youtube... 1 week ng di nkkpag friendster (yan ang di kapanipaniwala..see last log in)... pero kung pagsasama-samahin.... mas konte ang time ko sa internet ngayong week kumpara sa trabaho... which I daresay is UNUSUAL... bah buti sana kung malaki pnpasweldo sa kin ng gobyerno para ilaan ko ang 3/4 working hours ko sa trabaho at 1/4 lang sa luxury... di ata proportional un amp... papayag ako sa 3/4 working-hour allotment kung may kasamang "corruption" hek hek...

Npka unpredictable talaga n2 ni Mr. Ronaldo Ragojo har har!!!... na3himik ako nagbbsa ng "The Firm" ni John Grisham (di ko pa nasosoli kay Wheng haha! 10 years na) kagabi ng biglang ngtxt tapos magttanong ng: What is the true value of life?... wadapak hek hek... nosebleed (yan ang initial reaction ko).... Anu 2 Question and Answer portion sa Miss Universe?...."Survey ko lang yan to anyone... for purposes of boosting my self-esteem"...he added.... owrayt then... I chose not to answer his question at once... characters in SMS won't be enough to expound my views regarding the subject... so i decided to have it answered here instead....

Seriously, I know he's presently in a deep state of mental anguish... eversince naman during our college days puro pressure sa family tapos sasabayan pa ng mga professors namin... financially disable na nga....good thing we both graduated on time....tapos ngayon he is being incarcerated by his bosses taking advantage of his present situation... hahayzz.... e2 basahin mo bro...

WHAT IS THE TRUE VALUE OF LIFE???....

LIFE comes only once.... hindi ito parang pelikula na may part 2... hindi rin ito parang computer na pag na-virus pwedeng i-reformat o i-restore... no second go ika nga... Biologically, out of millions of sperm cells, only one will manage to make it on the egg cell and tadaaa... YOU are born... you have given the opportunity to live in this damn world... see the logic??... just like the million combinations of numbers in lotto... bang! you hit the jackpot....

A sane person won't think he is living without any purpose at all... Each of us is bound to enjoy both the beauty and complexity of this world... God did not create the world to put its inhabitants into misery... Neither He created its inhabitants to nurture His creation on their own... we always have the option which side to go...left or right, up or down, light or darkness... take your pick...

I used to play online RPGs (Role Playing Games) and among them, fave ko ang FlyFF.... all players start with a Level 1 character... initially equipped with cotton suits as armor and a wooden sword as weapon, a player is about to boost up his character until it is capable of wearing heavy armors and powerful weapons... the objective of the game is to level up the character to make it strong... to do so, you have to kill monsters that corresponds your character's level... kung Lvl 1 ka, you have to lure Level 1 up to Level 3 monsters only, to gain experience and you level up... Lure a Level 10 monster and you're a dead meat....as you go along with leveling up your character, you will find weapons, armors, accessories and items that may be useful to your quest... Only one thing is certain... the fate of your character will depend on how you are going to play it... you definitely are in control....

Unlike FlyFF, we are characters who are not in control of somebody.... we have given the free will to live in a way we wanted to... God provided us all what we need... We have given companions either... what remain for us is to gain experience and level up.... problems give us experience.... and we level up...

Tribulations and oddities are given.... these are like spices that make a food tasty and mouth-watering... without which life would be boring... a movie without conflict or tragedy is tiresome... I doubt it if you would bother yourself watching... I mean, cmon' would you rather spend your 1 out of 1 life crying in the corner while the others are having fun out there?... So what if the sky is full of dark clouds when you can play in the rain afterwards??... to make it simple, the true value of life lies on how we want it to be... all the ingredients are there... what we just need to do is to cook the recipe...

After all, isn't it funnny livin' la vida loca (living in a crazy life)??.....

"At times, LIFE never seems to be the way we want it... but we live it the best way we can...there's no perfect life but we can fill it with perfect moments..."

...Friday d' 13th....

Thanks God it's Friday.... the 13th...

it's 45 min past midnight... thanks Goodness I got home safe oblivious of the phenomenon that occurs once in a blue moon... Friday the 13th....This has been considered and in fact one of the generally accepted notions.... an unfounded superstition but somehow worth to take note of... I am not a triskaidekaphobic (one who fears number 13) myself... But I am aware that buildings do not have a 13th floor either.... weird...

Be that as it may, I still feel sooo lucky today.... Ayus na ulet PC ko... may bonus pang mga movies at games weeee.... a high-five to ALVIN for the job well done... Buti na lang naayus kundi panu na lang ang weekend ko???.... Tnx also to Kajo for the assistance.... sa fudgee bar sa RC at sa masarap na sinigang... solb ang dinner...

inasmuch as I want 2 put myself into "adik mode" tonight, ala lobat na... bukas na ko mag aaudition.... one to sawa hek hek....
