unplanned 31

Let's end the year with a big bang!!!!!!!!!!!!! hehe

Well, sad naman, retire na si Brock pero ano pa magagawa natin. hehe NBA is back!!!!!!!!! Yeah boy, go MAVS!!! Bulls!!! Heat!!! OKC! honorable mention, Memphis. hahaha

Yes, unfortunately, after everything goes well within this year, pagdating sa holidays, medyo olats. Birthday and Christmas, what a way to celebrate it. I am more down this year kaysa last year kasi naman madidisolve yun team namin. Nanahimik kami biglang ayun.. Balik FS.. =(

But like Bro Bo says, every leaf in a tree that falls, there is a new one growing again. At parang nangyayari nga, I have plans in place at lahat may option! Akalain mo, parang kakaiba, di kagaya dati, no choice. hehe

Although it's hard to accept but great things last in a lifetime. Grateful naman ako this year, walang sakit masyado or worse problems. Kahit may naging problema pero in the end nalampasan ko din... At kahit medyo broke eh I can sense prosperity next year!

Even it's sad that RAM has to go, pero ok lang.. Tuloy ang buhay at may mga nakaabang na. hehe

I'm thankful this Christmas at naging maayos naman ang lahat, my plans or actions for next year mukhang magstart na, as long tuloy tuloy na to. I know I'll be losing a lot but parang ok lang sa kin. Ika ko nga, pag masakit na sa ulo ko, tanggalin na kaysa magtagal pa. hehe

It was hard to let go, but this is better than well, keeping it up.

I thought January is quite unlucky pero sa next year, himala hindi. Kaya sana, tuloy na talaga to. What is it? You'll gotta find out next month.

Definitely... I just hope, I know, Jesus has better plans for me.. I hope I can follow that way, or path.. Maybe God has also a better way.. Guides me to whatever leads me.. Success and happiness.

Before January comes and all passes by.. I want to thank Him for everything this year as I discovered the true meaning of myself.. Although di ko pa masisimulan pero mukhang matutuloy na, the real and right thing to do.. Showing me the way to the right path.

Happy new year, thank you to my Family, Friends, all of us.. Looking forward for a better year!!!!!!!!! I thank hmmmmmmm yes, RAM, sa 24/7 at sa shop ko na kahit di ko masyado nababantayan, eh malaki pa din natulong sa kin not only financially but my attitude and yes, some important skills.. Maybe for future business endeavors. hehe

Ah, what else, sa mga new friends, CG, happy new year!!!!!!!!!!! Sa mga di ko pa nakikita, even I have communication with, happy new year, makikita ko kayo next year. Alam na kung sino kayo. hahahaha

More faith, love and hope.. Health na din, and yes, for next year.. May theme na. Total Reset. =)

Ah... Yun lang siguro, at sa FS.. thanks sa mga customers ko diyan, it helped me financially even small.. Pero yun iba diyan, magbayad na!!!!!!!!!!!!! hehe

At yes, yun ibang di pa nagbayad na di taga FS.. Please naman ha.... hehe

Prelude for next year.. Yes, giving up meaning, opening space for better things ahead.

Giving up something for the better at this time, talagang tama! =)

R.A.M

The first time it was said to me, that I'll be transferred to a new LOB, I was sad. I'm sad because I'm doing my best at that time, and I have a company of friends which I built upon, I mean in my team only. It was sad.. Very sad..

The time it was discussed to us that this LOB will be dissolved due to some decisions, even we have high scores and comfortable environment.. I was shocked.. Quite depressed. More sad.. =(

Relocation and Accounts Management is the name of our LOB and yes, we are only one team.. 15 members and what we do, eh mag relocations. hehe

At first, since medyo kapa at kakatapos lang ng nakakaantok na training eh medyo mahirap lalo na pag on net. Kaso, after a month and a half.. At kasama pa ang relaxed environment, ayun na.. Nung tumagal, sabi ko, mukhang tatagal ako dito at matutuloy na mga plano ko with this job. =)

We relocating ULL services, I mean the competitor's lines.. HFC services, which is our line and wireless which is like the mobile thing.. The best part of all, walang calls. I never touched that freaking avaya for speaking a customer... hehe Although I use the phone pero for IT purposes, lalo na pag nalock yun pesteng CMBS ko. =)

Nagtagal at ayun, mas masaya kasi siyempre, not only I can listen to my sounds when I work, pero siyempre ang mas masaya, pag natapos ang work.. Literally... Petiks. Pahinga, matulog, mag internet, chismax o ayun maglaro.. Pusoy, monopoly na parang isang beses lang namin ginawa.. Charade, at lately pinoy henyo. Basta ang sure, may at least 1 hour kang petiks. Mas mahaba kung kaunti lang referrals, lalo kung holiday.. Kagaya kahapon, unang break pa lang, tapos na.. Ano na gagawin na mahigit 5 hours of killing time? =)

I felt bad when good things won't last.. Ika nga nila, parang nagbakasyon lang ako from FS.. Tapos itatapon na naman ako diyan, naman oh. hehe

But for me, this is the ideal job for me.. I am more productive in this kind of set up. Damn.. =) Yes, better than ecare. Kasi dito, may mga kasabay kang petiks, unlike sa ecare, parang ako lang ang laging petiks. hahahaha

I love this LOB, kasi naman, di masyado nagmamadali. I mean, pag log in, pahinga muna, tapos set up. Pag di mo pa type magwork, edi pahinga pa ulit. hahahaha

Of course, better workplace doesn't came with the job alone. I'm going to miss the group of people I worked with. From the playful group ng pusoy and other games, sila She, Deng, Ted, Marge, Yet, Alecks, and yours Truly. =) At yun mga gustong tahimik ang buhay, di naglalaro pero ayun, simple lang ang gusto, pumetiks. Mami Mainah, Mabs, at naku ang tahimik na si Apple. hahaha Mami Dines din pala, pero ngayon sumasama na sa laro. hahaha At may group din na iba ang trip pero malaki tulong sa team, Ge, na aking SME at magaling magturo sa CMBS.. Panalo to! Lau na matalino, at siyempre kapwa FS na si Ren. At siyempre ang isa pang cool na SME, si Tan.. Siya pala gumawa ng vector ng CRAP. Talented din.. hehe

At di dapat makalimutan, although minsan medyo nakakalimutan ang process ng relo. hahaha Pero magaling at madaling pakisamahan, TL Bonn.. =)

Even my stint only lasted well 7 months, naku sulit.. From getting easier scores sa GRIDD, I mean yun 5 ko dito icompare ko sa 5 ng FS, di ko pa nagagamit ang lahat ng strength ko. I mean naburn out ako, pero di dahil sa RAM. Actually in all 3 jobs I do everyday, this one is my resting period, kahit 20 pataas pa ang relo ko. hahahaha Sa huli, may petiks pa din!!!

Meaning, once you get the process, it's all in heaven already. =)

Ah, no cancelling of VL's dito.. Grabe minsan, oh umuwi na ang gusto umuwi, basta VTO. Ako, bili naman ako. hahaha

I know, our time is quite short, time left is fading away but definitely, 3rd best team I worked in this time. Easily, sayang lang, naging short ang stay ko. Kahit walang var pay dito, ok lang, the work and extra time we have here, the stress free life is enough.

Although we have plans na, lalo na si TL.. Kanya kanya na.. Alam na. hehe But definitely, I enjoyed my stay, and I wish the best sa lahat ng team mates ko, at sana magkita pa din kahit wala na ang RAM. I'll definitely miss you all. Always. =) thanks for the time and damn, best times of work.

Mamiss ko yun sigaw namin pang badet. Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. hehehe Pag may mga balita sa ganyan, at wag ka, kami ang unang nakakaalam ng chismax sa 24/7.. Pati yun pagkawala namin, nalaman agad before we were told. Ganun kami kaadvance sa chismax. I'm going to miss that. hehe

RAM, log out! Kita kita sa The Fort, Mckinley! Bwahahahahahahaha

Eye of the Beholder

I saw this good looking mom with her lovely children, the boy pointing her mom to go the right way. The nice daughter, well quite busy with her phone.

- Damn that nice daughter, looks matured but well I gave a second look, I felt she's in high school. Nice family though, where's the dad?

This dude flaunting his iphone while waiting for his shoes. He looks so happy with his iphone, and quite serious about it.

- Well, as I am thinking, I don't like iphone because one it's damn expensive, due to it's branding. Another, the iOS or simply itunes, really dragging my computer. Although it looks nice but, design with it's freaking price? No way! Maybe if it's free.. I'll give it a try.

"Same familar town, something distinctly brand new"

As I stroll these halls looking the same message with different figures, I'm wondering when will these shops open? Everybody is also wondering as they pass these closed/renovating shops.

- I hope they opened in xmas day, so the business can start running! I'm glad that they started not only fixing this place, but expanding the place. Making it more cozy and elegant in a simplistic way. What is the meaning of that? Meaning, better than before. Going to this place makes me feel quite rich even I don't have money. I come here for the crowd perhaps.. I haven't come here for a long time.

The family is quite irritated in waiting, especially we are eating our hearts out in this great chinese restaurant.

- I am thinking, we're quite lucky to get a seat right away. We were thinking to say longer, to get them irritated. Nah, just joking. I love maybe making people suffer, for fun. But not all the time. I suffered that before. That's bad for my personality. The old man looks hungry and angry. Let's drink for coffee, nah, I think let's just get out of here.

I am looking to this lady, very simple but has great looks. White skin, yet healthy hair, a nice smile. The usual innocent look.. Prim and proper, I can see.. Well qualified for me. =)

- Damn, I mean I have different standards, this lady is great. She looks quite serious but that smile and fun, very enticing. I hope she's my other half. hehe However, I saw that ring, well time to move on. Look for someone else.. Geez, I'm quite unlucky at these searching the right one.

These are some things that I see and feel. Although my eyes can only see so much, my mind and heart speaks a lot. I see it in a different way.

You cannot really see what I can do, or think.

Deep inside, it's different..

It is my perspective that counts..

Not Showing: Legend of the Fist: The return of Chen Zhen

I took the sneak peak of Wu Xia, I missed it here at Cinemanila but it's great! A great film.. Like a history of violence with CSI touch in kung fu style. 2 Ip Man films are great as well. Damn.. I hope there should be part 3 where Bruce Lee kicks in.

Or how about Iron Monkey? After being a foe in Once Upon a China part 2, he became Wong Fei Hong's Dad. Geez. hehe All of them, were acted by Donnie Yen and yes, he's getting all the attention when he got older and making his prescence felt starring the lead in these films I mentioned.

My Favorites is the long title above.. Damn.. It was damn great!!!!!!!!! I hope he was the one casted in the Green Hornet. The new one which I fell asleep. Maybe if this dude was Kato there, the film, will be good.

About the story, well, you can find it in wikipedia. Sad to say, I did not focus so much about the story.. Quite confusing about the story, and how the pace went through. I got tired of following the film, story wise... I hope they quite arranged the story.

Hell with the story! If it's an action flick, forget the story. Let's fight!!!!!!!!! hehe

The film is damn great. I don't care about what others will say, or the fight or kung fu film fans.. This one is epic. From the starting scene which Chen killed all the soldiers without bringing something with him. I like how he dodged the bullets and went to the enemy's place in no time..

Then, of course, going back to Shanghai, the 40's look with the Japanese Government handling them, great production sets until the crowd looks, well extravagant in the year of world wars. Of course, there is a sad side of Shanghai, poor people, oppressed as well.. By the way Chen Zhen is not what he is when he returned to China, he somewhat changed his name, to avoid the Japs.

One night, he witnessed a fight and killed a man with a gun, Chen Zhen don a suit, the Kato suit and unleashed hell. hehe Wow, that is a fight. Of course, there is an underground group led by a newspaper dude who wants freedom of Shanghai, but unfortunately due to great spies of the Japs, the army stormed the said office but Chen Zhen came and fought off the goons. But the freedom fighter is dead. Chen promised revenge to the leader of the Japs troops and find a way to fight him. Although the leader somewhat a friend to Chen Zhen not the masked crusader, discovered he is the masked crusader. Tortured and killed some of his friends, in the end, the leader invited Chen to a fight, of course, Chen did not back out fighting first a 100 fighters then lead to the leader.

The general, I mean the leader gained upper hand in the first half of the fight but in the end, Chen prevailed, killed the bastard and won! Of course, Shanghai is not free yet, although Japs are quite diminished in power for a while, the masked crusader is just looking from above.

The problem of this film is really the screenplay, I mean, they have great in every aspect of the film, from sounds, editing, production and everything except for the story. There is no intro for Chen Zhen and the pace is quite slow especially for the parts of dialogue. Although the stars are great, from the mob bosses, Japs, even the lovely Shu Qi, or how about Donnie as well, the script and screenplay is not really in place. Especially in the first parts...

That's all the problem lies. Others are great!!!!!!!!!!

I thought this is US produced, but nah, it's homeland produced and it's well budgeted. Like I said the stars are great, I like how it go through and of course.

The best are the action scenes! I like even the scene that the general used his karate fist to kill off one chinese soldier in one punch. Yikes. hehe The introduction part, damn, how Chen killed off those german dudes. Ah, the first scene with his kato suit, damn, it's fast, accurate and fantastic. The office scene, wow, how he done that? hehe Especially how he killed the goon, style MMA.

And yes, the last battle scene, the Bruce Lee incarnation. Although he did not shout all through out, maybe a show of respect to his great master, damn.. It looked realistic on how he defeated the 100 men, and his white suit really fits him.. The final match of course, great! The karate master is damn good but well, in the end, the ripped up Donnie Yen really overmatched the dude. I hope next time, there will be a different martial arts style to fight him, I thought, it's always Karate. Ah, I was suprised, I don't know how old is Donnie Yen, but dude, that ripped up body of his, how he did that? hehe

He doesn't look like well, old.

Anyway, damn.. Although, I definitely like WuXia because of it's dramatic pace and CSI theme parts and the history of Violence topic, still I go for this movie. The best Donnie Yen film. Ever. But there will be new films and at least contemporary type, but for now. This is the best film, not only because he fights very well, but how he acted on both characters and of course, the film itself. WuXia is very close, but I like more of the fast pace action mayhem in this one. Donnie Yen has the right to become the next Bruce Lee because of this movie. Although he doesn't have the face or the exact frame, but on what he did? Damn. No debates needed.

Definitely, I hope, you'll watch this movie, especially to those hard core action fans!!!!!!!!!

"Will the masked hero defeat me?" The Jap General asked.

"Sure, he will.." Chen Zhen as the mob guy answered.

answers to certain questions...

all around Chef Igz

Rheg can shoot photos now, but Igz is a way better photographer.

Doc can drive, but hell yeah Igz is better.

Ako, palpak kumanta, nasira pa yun upuan ni Rheg, siya.. Singer and a member of a Band.

Kami nga, siguro hanggang prito lang kami at saing at bumibili pa ng ulam. Siya, kahit Tuna lang ang ulam, pasasarapin niya. hehe Chef Igz!!!

Kaw na lahat Bro!!!!!!!!! Isama pa ang architecture. hahahaha

Anyway, wala ng architecture. Graduate na siya dun, take note..

Damn, sa aming 4, siya ang pinakabusy, pero talagang busy. I mean, ako kahit 3 ginagawa ko sa isang araw, malamang si Igz, more than 3. An events specialist, photographer at ayun Chef at pag nakataon, kakanta pa. Grabe eh.

Way back HS years, like I said before, siguro, kami yun mas close pa kaysa sa dalawa. Kasi magkaklase kami ng Grade 6 ata then of course HS. Yun lang, napunta siya sa other group of friends, like sila Doc at Sir. Ako sa other group of friends din.

I can say, sa tatlo, siya yun makulit at masaya. Siguro bihira siya mangasar sa kin, tapos ayun, minsan siya yun nagpapasaya sa section. Active in art contest, singing, ah Manora at iba pa. Better to make it simple, he has talent. =)

I was suprised that me, Doc and him went to UST. Although magkakaiba ng college, pero dahil kay Doc at kay Sir, sama pa ito, eh ayun na, magkakasama kami. Add to my best college life, eh nasama pa ang mga adventures ng CRAP with Igz. Ang official house ng CRAP since college is Igz house. Official car ng CRAP is Igz nissan sentra 1997 ata yun. Official food and beverage supplier lalo na ng college days na sobrang may booze sessions, courtesy of Igz din. Grabe, meaning..

Mabait si Igz talaga, I mean, even me I rarely offer my house, car, talent sa iba na instant. Igz made that possible.

Suprisingly, even finish HRM eh nagchef naman siya kaso well, that company sucks perhaps.

I still remember na ayaw niya magwork sa BPO or call center kasi ibang industry and sort of, at feeling niya di siya tatagal dun.

Look at him now, almost the same tenure of Sir.. At napromote pa siya, as an events specialist if I'm right. Hmmmmm he discovered another skill which is photography. Kaya talo na colorpoint sa kanya. CRAP's official porno este photographer. hehe At baka magtaka ka, bakit sa CRAP lang siya mabait. Well, you don't know...

Even he is quite hot headed sometimes, o kahit minsan lost siya and sometimes always burn out, like me. hehe He has a very friendly attitude. Evident yan nung isang birthday party niya. Damn, napakadami niya niyayang friends, from HRM, PS then some friends din, we were left out nga. hehe Ok lang yun, at matindi pa, grabe ang beer, parang tubig. Isang linggong beer. hahaha

Meaning despite naman sa shortcomings, eh yun.. He's a lovable dude. =) Oops, I forgot.. As a family dude, a brother to Achi and a loving son to Tita, eh kahit minsan nahihirapan siya lalo na this year.. He shown he can overcome all of it. Despite the busyness, works, OT's eh nagagampanan niya ng tama ang lahat. Me? I can't do that neither. Geez. hehe

Meaning, kung ganun siya, pwede na magasawa. hahaha I'm happy bro, ah that this year, despite all the whatever happenings to you, eh nagawa mo. We're happy that success coming to you in all areas in your life eh medyo nakikita mo na lalo na for your future.. We're here to support you, just please take care of your health. Parang yun lang advice ko din sa dalawa. hehe Pero mas prone ka kaysa samin because of what you do. But we're happy because you're happy. Naks. =) At least what happened in the past, biglang nakarecover ka na ha.

Whatever you need, despite your schedule bro, don't forget to inform us. Or kahit si Doc na lang.. Close kayo eh. hehe Pero yeah, CRAP is better with P. Patrick.

Natawa ako dati di pa pwede tawagin siyang Igz, I don't know why. hehe Igz is definitely better.

Bro, salamat sa sofa niyo na napakasarap matulog, sa CR niyo na very reliable dahil alam mo na.. hehe Lalo na dati, shot lang kasi ako ng shot kahit tanduay Rhum yun. Sige shot lang. hehe Best hospitality from Tita at Achi. Even kay ate Dang na sobrang kulit. hehe Kahit yun Ref niyo din na taga tago ng pagkain at ice cream, thank you.

Simply bro, your company and I am, we are glad, sa CRAP, one of the best friends we have, for each other. =)

Actually with that healthy built bro, see how talented he is.. Pwede mag MMA yan!!!

Kahit pader wasak eh. Yun nga lang pati yun kamay niya. hehe

Kung Ako'y Isang

(basketball coach)


Dapat iba ilalagay ko iba kaso nun nanood ako ng PBA D-League game kanina, even I'm this freaking sick.. Natatawa lang ako sa dalawang losing teams. Sobrang nagkakalat, di makashoot, kulang sa depensa, other players are lost. Of course, all other basketball games ganun din from PBA, NBA and even well, dati barangay games. Naisip ko paano kaya ang maging coach. Siyempre iba yun player sa coach. Sa player susunod ka lang eh, pero sa coach, kaw ang magiisip ng plays at siyempre ang pinakamahirap sa lahat, motivate ng players.


May mga coaches ako na gusto. Sa pinoy, Yeng Guiao! hehe Kasi naman pag di ka sumunod, sabon na aabutin mo buong laro. Tim Cone, grabe, ngayon ko lang nagustuhan yun style niya. Although less motivator, pero plays, ibang klase. Mahirap talaga depensahan, saka yun, alam niya san pwede ang isang player. Chot Reyes, hmmmm kahit maliit ang team niya, bagay yun run and gun lalo na sa TNT. Yun nga lang, nasulot sa Petron, which goes to Ato Agustin. Kahit sobrang ubos na ang lineup, panalo pa! hehe

Ah, sa Gilas team, Coach Rajko, grabe din naman ang ginawa. Although di tayo nanalo sa FIBA, I can see na kaya natin, it's just we need to have the right team. Right kind of players with height. Sayang, mukhang di na siya ata magiging coach ng gilas.

NBA, hmmmmm Rick Carlisle, at last with the right team, he won a championship. Si Doc Rivers, magaling magmotivate. Phil Jackson, 11 rings, what else can you say. hehe Coach Mike whatever the last name, coach ng Team USA na naggold, ayos di ba, nag jell agad yun mga magagaling. Saka yun sa FIBA world din, greatly using KD to finish off teams.

Larry Brown, although estranged lately, pero nung nag 76ers siya hanggang DET, grabe.. Iba talaga siya magcoach, old school complicated coach. hehe

Hmmmm Jerry Sloan and Don Nelson, wow.. Even they don't have a trophy, longevity is enough proof na magaling silang coach. Lastly, sayang di umabot yun dalawa, Rick Adelman and Nate Mcmillan. Lastly, is Mike D'Antoni, although no championships yet, entertaining yun style niya. Lalo na nung nasa PHX pa siya.

Siyempre di naman ako lahat yan. hehe Ang gusto ko sa pagiging coach, maninigaw ka ng player. hahaha Like for example, "Oh anak ng tokwa, benta ka ha!" "Umayos ka ha, uupo ka!", "Mga bwisit, patalo ata ako kayo ha!" "Ang play natin na ha, screen, pick and pop, kaw wag ka tatanga! Kaw wag kang bobo" hehe "Ano ka ba naman, star player 2 points, bumebenta ka ata ha!" "Ref naman oh, kita naman foul, ano kailangan para maging foul!"

Saka gusto ko esksena na nathrown out kasi sa technical mo. hehe Tapos mas natalo yun team. Hahaha

Mga ganun ba, actually ginawa ko lang yun. hehe Pero saka gusto ko sa coach, nakakainspire ka ng mga players no, di ka strict at alam mo kaya ng player mo. Saka always go for the win, kahit minsan tambak na eh, show hope naman sa players para sa next game. Siyempre, kahit papalit ang mga players mo, at least, makikita ka na magaling na coach di ba. Yun naniniwala sa system mo. Pero iba talaga, palpak. hehe At marami niyan sa NBA. hahaha

Anyway, ganun ang siste at aminado naman mahirap maging isang basketball coach. Lalo na pagwala na tiwala sayo, like the coach sa DET last year, lahat di naglaro kasi wala ng respeto sa coach, ayun naglaro, 6 na player lang. hehe Basta siguro pag ako coach, depende din sa team eh, pero gusto ko yun ginagawa ko sa NBA live, post up offense. Pick and roll, tapos sa defense, half court trap. Yun lang. Mananalo kaya ako sa tunay na game?

3-in-1

Manager - A manager well, look at his shop, do some work, bili ng gamit.. Check the sales, and everything. Need to motivate salesladies, and check inventory. Looking and looking, then after sometime leave. Full of hope or full of worries. It's either way.

Salesman- Yes, when coming to the office, another job awaits. PTP of loads, cards, or how about cellphones. Collections, begging for extensions tapos ayun, yes.. May makulit. Geez, I hope they will just buy and pay. No other questions or seeking for more answers.

Officemate - As other team mates says, heaven. Hehe After some work, so much extra time to do.. Talk, laugh, minsan chismisan. Sleep or simply killing some time. Sometimes, other jobs as well to kill some time. Have fun with the team and yes, wait to log out!

No, it's not your typical coffee, because they achieve one great taste. It's me doing all this stuff from sunrise to 12am. Tiring and sometimes burned out. Siguro most of the time. That's why I pray, I can do all of them correctly. I am not perfect or even rich.. I can't even imagine how far I already did for these jobs.

I ask myself, what I am doing this.. Have I achieved yun ginagawa ko sa life? Nachieve na ba yun goals ko?

The answer, I don't know yet.. However, siguro some of these days.. There will be already. It will be answered, the one who will answer it?

My heart. =)

I can't imagine, doing this everyday. Single day.. Wow. hehe

I hope I can split myself into 3.

The Feast

I can't believe I'm downloading some inspirational songs.. Quite catchy kasi especially with the worship time, feel the presence of him, God..

Wayback, mga 6 months ago, around May ata yun.. Etong si Sir Rheg eh nagyaya to go at PICC at maaga ha. So, ayun nagkita kami from Vito Cruz tapos orange elf going to PICC. At first, ayun may holy mass na sabi ko iba sa usual mass. May shortcuts but it's the same and lively! Then after the holy mass.. Some songs and intro, long and behold, Bro. Bo Sanchez show up! Holy crap. hehe Sabi ko, after reading didache for some time, a long time and he has some sharings there sana makita ko lang siya and yes, God did give me my wish. I can see him not only once, but every Sunday. hehe

Not because I praise him or adore him above everything, it's just I grateful that because of his sharings and inspirational words sa Didache, it made me a better person as I get older. From strengthening faith to God, Holy Spirit, and of course, Lord Jesus.. Then yeah, ayun na.. At first, I was not listening to him because I was stuck.. Starstruck perhaps. At totoo, other than reading Didache, seeing him or listening to him is better. =)

As weeks gone by, of course, minsan di naman siya lagi.. But let me say, I love the holy mass here kasi di lang ok yun pace of the mass but yun mga priests, it's either funny or kahit fun pero more serious and talagang simplify ang message of explaining the gospel of that Sunday. Ang galing ng mga invited priests dito. Nagulat ako, yun priest kina Dad sa Don Antonio na magaling magtagalog, kasi Aussie siya, Fr. Steve, sa the feast, ayun nilabas na ang Aussie accent. Parang nagcalls lang. hehe Pero yes, kahit dun sa Don Antonio and here sa the Feast, magaling siya. =)

Then, what I love sa the Feast compare it to other charismatic gatherings.. Even those shown in TV, it's like seminar lagi. I mean talks that are life changing, tapos may series pa ang talks. Like the last time was how to have a happy life. It has 4 steps on being happy, meaning 4 weeks yun, 5 pala kasi yun huli nahati sa dalawa.

Those talks are not only for the catholic faith, it is kasi once the topic is started, may bible readings naman but after that, it is focused in a general scale of life. About life itself, financially, love or relationships, status or difficulties din. Tapos it directs to God, not Bro. Bo or all other speakers, but God, and Lord Jesus Christ. Our redeemer and savior, the shephard.

Yun, kaya it's a open venue, kahit ibang sect or religion, you can go to the feast! =) Kahit yun worship ok na. It helped a lot in the view of life.. Success and happy life, learn to really enjoy life in the right way. Healing relationships, accepting trials, defeats or failures and most of all.. Lean to Lord more.. Better Faith..

Although di pa naman fully changed but I am experiencing some changes na din. I can say I have a stressful life but after the Feast, I don't care those stress anymore.. I can rely not only my strength, but with him na din. hehe

Yeah, of course, not only Bro Bo is great.. Other speakers as well.. From Sis Rissa which a great writer and suprisingly, yeah, beautiful.. Even at that age ha, damn. hehe But great thing to know, siya pala yun nag setup ng readings for didache each day, editor in chief perhaps, so yeah.. Galing, if there will be a perfect example of an ideal girl for me. No not number 5, it's her. =)

Bro. Alvin na eto, kamukha talaga ni Jo Ivan.. Lalo kung mahaba pa din yun buhok ni Ivan, naku pagkakamalan kambal sila. hahahaha Great speaker at yeah, kung may tagalog session, siya na maglead. =) Very talented dude and very touching yun nangyari sa kanya. Bro. George is another good speaker, talagang na natawa ako sa ginawa niya in his life especially sa love life, so may standards din ha. Kaso yeah in the end, he found true love. Very inspirational din siya, a speaker for those na medyo laid back.. And professionals din. Bro. Arun, wow.. Kahit bumbay ha, galing ng talk niya.. Patawa din at higit sa lahat magaling siya sa motivation topics.. Gusto ko sa kanya yun pace, from very funny until it get serious. Kaso sa The feast alabang siya eh. layo. hehe Yun iba, BGC, and well, bulacan. hahaha

For Bro. Bo, indeed the greatest of them all.. Although yeah, talagang straight english pero what I love about him.. He really encourages you especially if you're in catholic faith, go to Jesus.. Go to God and serve. Yun lang, at maganda sa kanya, very transparent, come on.. Not all of us are perfect pero siya lagi niya sinasabi, even him a sinner before and has many problems even now but he inspire change to us not in the radical and fast way.. Unti unti with divine guidance, in Jesus' great time.. All will be given. Revealed.

At yes, talagang nashock ako about his past... Wow, parang sabi ni God, normal lang ang change getting out of addiction because the one in front, was worse.. Noong nashare na yun, wow.. Ako nga yun.. Ganun din ako.. At makakaya ko makaalis. hehe

Of course, sana mabasa niya yun email ko dati sa kanya, parang taon na ata. Wala paring reply. hehehe However, I don't his reply na, in the course of the feast, I almost found the answers I'm looking for.. Kaunti na lang siguro and answered prayers na lang pero kahit di na niya sagutin. God answers, Jesus guides perhaps. Pag nag JE, magiisip na ko ng itatanong. hehe

Because of the Feast, I have more knowledge on how to serve him.. In many different ways, and outlook sa life, naiba talaga. More books to read perhaps. hehe At siyempre, calling.. Pero parang di pa ko eh. hahaha CG din siyempre, kung walang the Feast, walang CG. hahaha

Ah, the parts of worship talaga yeah.. Iba.. With those inspirational songs, I learned to really lift everything to him.. Fears, problems, dreams, decisions, everything.. Happiness.. I now not only pray for myself, pero more na sa family, friends, all of us. I mean, oo I pray so much for myself, pero mas mahaba na prayer ko for the people around me. hehe

I learned as well, to know myself better. That's why these changes happen to me, I know what I can do, I know what I cannot really do.. I just pray, God will do rest for me. For all of us.

Siyempre, di naman perfect ang the Feast. Although some minor changes lang. Like sana, longer talks kasi minsan bitin. Sana din, kung ano sa Valle Verde at PICC, yun din sa other feast. hehe Kasi malay ko minsan malate ako or tinamad sa PICC, tapos punta ko sa other feast, delay pala ng isang week. Sayang. hehe Ah, ano pa.. Yun, tagalog session. I mean, when I look around, others look dazed and confused not because it's boring or what, siyempre yun iba, may mga mahina sa english o kagaya yun katabi ko last week. Kasambahay eh medyo di siya nakakaintindi ng pure english.. Yun lang sana may tagalog session, like Bro. Alvin. hehe Suggestion lang.

Pero, I can say, magaling lahat ng speakers, all the Feast builders and we hope, mareach natin ang target.. Quite big but nothing is big as long you do it for Him. =)

Sana nga naisip ko din, all the churches will follow yun pace ng holy mass dito. Although not perfect, but it's the right one. =)

I am still reading the Didache, and still going to the Feast, kahit mamiss ang CG due to other commitments pero wag mamiss ang the Feast.. I feel light despite all my inhibitions. I believe, he will give that he promised in the right time. =) Just continue to pray, serve, and of course.. Love. Love Life with him.. For his Glory.

It became my 2nd home for my spiritual journey. I cannot deny my first home, siyempre dun ang foundation ng faith ko. Besides may plan na ko for Lourdes. hehe

Definitely, one of the happiest places in my life. =)

Thank you The Feast for this changes in my life.. You can see it naman sa blogs ko, may iba light lang oh. hehe

Ah, siyempre thanks to Sir Rheg, kung wala siya, di ko alam yun The feast. hehe

Sana nga may pagkain na libre eh, The Feast kasi ang pangalan. =)

I hope I can invite pa others to go at the Feast.... I have a list na nga eh.

Or if you have time, come to the Feast!

End of Last Quarter

Yearend na to. hehe Actually, hmmmm yeah maaga ang posting ko nito pero no choice. Appetizer muna. =)

Ah, Last October, ayun sa last 3 months, mabuti tapos na tong lintik na buwan.. Grabe, stressful all through out, physically, mentally, lahat ng may lly.. grabe, hay.. Thank God. Tapos na. Yun lang. hehe Although it was difficult that month, mabuti with that month, parang nahanap ko yun kailangan ko, the important things to do and getting what I need.. Which is secret. hehe Which are pala..

Kaya yun, just a forgettable month. Except for some insights...

November, it was a fast month! With all the things I need to do natapos, medyo less stress but bad news came.. Good Friday came early.. Geez.. I just can't believe it. Just look at the next posts and you'll know what I mean. Grabe, planado na eh, biglang ganun.. Mabuti di sobrang aga pero ano pa magagawa namin.. Hay.. I knew that time, xmas won't be that much fun for us.. The team.

Although yun ok naman lahat except for that part, kita kita na lang sa labas! hahahaha

December, yeah, it's just the 10th day of the month. At marami nangyari incase of sa shop kasi it's xmas season. Work, yun just enjoyed the xmas party of 24/7, I can say, better, way better than last year. Ika nga, di kami nakakain ng sayote at kanin. hehe Although it's fun but not through out, not because of the party.. Something bothering us. That's all, but well congrats sa mga nanalo ha, halos FS ha.. Basta pera talaga, FS ang nangunguna. hahaha

Now, I am catching up na sa blogs and all I can say for this coming days.. I can say, liberation for some things. Freedom from any worries. Decisions need to be done. I have many plans pero bahala na siya what will I take. I always pray, I know you have better plans for me. Naks. Kalungkot naman. =(

But as they say, think positive.. Positive.. Damn, I still feel.. Nega. hehe

I'm positive naman next year despite for some major changes, pero sana ok ang January ha. Please lang. =)

flashbacks: GK

Hmmmmm, they are great teachers ha for the kids, drawing, playing games and etc.. Lalo na yun mga Miriam studs.. And yes, some ADMU studs as well. I wish I've done this in UST days to get them to know better. Ah sorry!!! Damn. I'm old for that. hehe

Masyado ako nafocus sa kanila. hahaha

GK is Gawad Kalinga, and hmmmm ah, they are a NGO who builds houses for the less fortunate. I was invited to their activities because of our very active and beloved CG head na to join in the build. I only joined two activities this year, yun mga sumunod nga mas maganda kasi talagang magbuild ng house kaso, well, if you were informed 2 days before the event, mahirap na magpaalam sa kahit sinong TL siguro. hehe

Anyway, the experience is fulfilling.. First one was well, near in QC. I can't believe my GK village in this busy city. Near at my dad's house, near commonwealth market lies one GK village. Bulaklakan village at ang tawag at there, it has around 20 small houses and parang maraming townhouse ang style tapos tapat is your usual neighborhood.

Actually parang tapos na siya, kulang na lang some finishes pero we are able to do some work. Kasi yun likod na bahay at bakod, di pa tapos. Sakto, yun event na yun coincides with ADMU's parang loyola day something, so parang CSR nila ito. There, at first wala pang magawa pero may mass, at yun na, start carring some cement, actually puro cement lang then pass it around to others para makarating sa workplace. Other activities na ginawa nila were painting the houses, some children activities and medical mission if I'm right. Since malaki me, although not healthy eh yun.. Napunta kami sa building part. Kahit nakakapagod, eh ayun.. Masaya, kasama kasi ang buong CG namin. Makulit at feeling ADMU for just one day. hahahaha Nice shirt though. Miriam also joined this activity at may GK team din sila. Interesting. hehe

Pero sobrang nakakapagod ha, nonstop kasi ang buhat, pero mas nakakapagod yun mga nagpapala ng semento. Well, nakakatuwa lang is those are students although like the typical na mayaman kid, is doing social work.. Na walang reklamo ha, kahit mapawisan or maputikan o madumihan eh tuloy pa din sila. They were driven to make a difference kahit sa small community and masaya talaga. Kahit medyo maarte magsalita but at least you can talk to them, and have company din. Sana talaga UST pa lang ako!!!! hehe

It ended at 3pm, of course may pagkain, sobrang dami ng pagkain kahit boodle fight at ayun. Masaya, kasi kita sa mga tao dun na masaya at kahit marami silang pinapakain, parang wala silang kapaguran. They love having yun GK because it helped them a lot, libreng bahay, tatanggi ka pa ba?

Ah of course, may nakausap ako dun, damn I forgot the name ni manong.. Actually staff siya ata ng GK Admu, tapos ang dami niya kinuwento and gave info about how these families got free housing. O paano sila nakuha, or screening at take note, siyempre may kapalit at di naman mahirap. Have a livelyhood at sunod sa GK good values, no smoking, or vices or any immoral siguro. Siyempre, family values siguro, kasi kung di daw sumunod, alis ka na sa bahay. Malamang. hehe

May celebration pa nga sila ADMU after because of the Loyola day ata but well, pagod na kami, we went home.

First one is not enough and it was followed by another one..

This time, so near that it really motivates me to come. My alma univ.. UST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sana nandun ulit yun mga Miriam and ADMU studs.. Bwahahaha As I going there, may parang grand nation building summit for all GK villages ang members and that's made me a member perhaps. hehe

However, since this one is big at gaganapin sa new UST sports complex, sama naman ako. At interested ako sa new sports complex.. Wow, when I entered the complex/arena/gym.. Grabe, buenas yun mga studs ngayon!!!!!!!!!!! Masarap manood ng UAAP or concert dun.. Grabe, lalo na yun court, sarap tumambay.. At maraming rooms ha.. I think for other events and clubs. The salinggawi room? Grabe, pwede na tumira ang mga bonafide members nila dun! Ang laki ng room, may mga CR, kulang lang, banig at unan. Yeah. hehe

Kaso di pa tapos eh, sobrang init, the aircon is not really fully functional. Then nabigyan ako ng assignment ni April to do some packing of goodies with the ADMU dudes. I mean, dudes and dudettes pala. I saw this college dude, mukhang artistahin, I can't believe that buff dude is only like freshman and sophomore ha.. Tapos yun, kuha ng tinapay, zesto tapos lagay sa brown bag, kahit marami ok lang.. Kakangawit nga eh. hehe

Tapos, after that.. Ayun, may darating daw na group of kids to guide in each activity they will do. So parang may set of activities sa lahat ng bata, from drawing, making origami tapos, mind games, singing and theater arts ata and more. Damn at first, kayang kaya, pero nung dumating na yun iba, diyos ko po. Nakapadami!!!!! Niyahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! May iba, ayun pasaway, iba naiinip at wala kang magawa kung di sabihin ng maghintay. Yun iba gutom kasi di pa kumakain from biyahe.. Yun iba lost. hehe Kaya marami kasi lahat ng GK villages eh talagang involved at pinaiiwan mo na yun mga kids for those activities. Yun mga ADMU studs, todo ang performance kahit pang 10th group na yun serve nila, other rooms are the same, like the singing room, siya lang magisa with some kids to teach other kids to sing.. Di mo makikita sa kanila yun pagod. Kahit sobrang init na.

Then I went to other rooms, long and behold the ones I really expected to.. They are back and they are many! hehe Hay.. Dungaw na lang sa glass. I damn hoped I was still a student in Commerce. hehe

I saw Cathy na kararating lang and after some time and the place is getting chaotic, decided to go home na. Besides umuulan at sobrang trapik because sa mga buses na dumadating from all parts of the country due to the event. Paalam na kami kay April even we know may token daw at concert after the activities, but well, it's better to get some rest. Lalo na ako, wala pa ko tulog that time. hehe

I can say, those activities of GK although it is not from a religious group or sect, it is encouraging others to serve the people who are really less fortunate. Di naman malaki hinihingi nila, they need is your support lalo na sa building houses para makatulong sa iba. Di lang pala houses ang build nila, even school buildings eh ginagawa na pala nila. Sayang nga di ako nakakasama kasi sobrang saya, not only sa mga makikilala mo dun, but the people who are waiting for your share to help. God also commanded us, kahit si Jesus, to build more churches to others, especially for those who are lost. I mean not that spiritual church and proclaiming faith, siyempre, build churches to have others to have shelter to. A church in terms of this, a house for each one of us.

Although it's a longshot to help other people, lalo na having houses for them, we should never stop doing it until many are still lost or needs shelter to enjoy this life. Many of them, doesn't really ask for a big house.. A simple house puts a really big smile in their faces, simple house to protect them from rain or heat. To store the things they have and enjoy family time as well.

Support not only GK, marami diyan.. Hmmm Habitat for Humanity and other NGO's who build houses for the poor. A very fulfilling experience.

Ah yes, very ironic. My Dad used to build houses, buildings, roads before. Kahit ngayon, kahit kaunti lang project niya, he does it for a fee, kahit kay Ate pa yun pagagawa. hahahaha

His son, does it for free. Kahit walang talent sa drawing and doesn't have that kargador body. Geez. I do it for the service of many.

Ah yes, thanks to Uniliver, for the goodies nun nation building, hangang ngayon may libren sachet pa ko ng shampoo. hehe Tipid din sa sabon bareta at close up toothpaste. Yehey!!!!!!!

Nostalgia: LSQC

Belligerent ghouls
Run Lourdes schools

Spineless swines
Cemented minds. hehe

Well, yeah.. Sort of siguro.. hahaha Of course, the most visited place after HS, is still this school. Malamang kasi malapit lang sa min, minsan nga pwede ko lakarin na lang. By the way, Manchester schools yun ha. From the smith's songs. hehe

Before, those buildings are not color blue, they were light brown.. But still yun buildings dun are the same. Grade School buildings are in Aircon na. Tapos, well, naiba na yun name ng sections, I don't see my former grade 2 section was Macopa anymore. Parang santo na halos lahat. I still prefer yun dati. hehe Grade 3 was Yakal, Grade 4 was Paris kung di ako nagkakamali, Grade 5 malamang La Verna, at siyempre.. Grade 6, St. Jerome. What a name of a section, St. Jerome. hehe

Although the grade school, has still the same land area, eh.. I was smiling and somewhat sad inside.. I was kinda hope if I could enjoy those past years without this bump in my head dati, siguro di ako mabubully or nasaktan. Maeenjoy ko pa yun GS and HS talaga. Kaso hindi eh.

But kahit ganun, smiling kasi until now, kids still doing the same kulitan.. Takbuhan, mataya taya.. PE sa kabilang area, sumisigaw ng 1-8 then 8-1 na now, marealize mo walang kwenta. hehe Siyempre kids nowadays doesn't play more of traditional games, due to the advent of tech gadgets. PSPs, Ipad, cellphone, or Itouch.. Di ko na nakikita yun mga text cards, dampa at iba pang kalokohan na laro. Hay those days, siyempre, di mawawala.. Yun suntukan after class. hahaha Which di naman ako nasali dun..

After some minutes there, of course, you'll go to HS side of Lourdes. Nakapasok naman ako dati kasi kay Sir, pero yun din, although blue naman talaga dati pa, at least now, lagi bagong pintura ha. Di kagaya dati, yun kulay nun pintura, eh ganun na nung kina Kuya Alpro. hehe Canteen changed, hmmmm wala na yun pinakabudget meal sa lahat!!! Isang order ng Siomai tapos 4 rice, recess lang yun. hehe Tapos lunch pass sa lunch para kay aling Lourdes ah este uwian sandali. hehe

CAT room still the same, Boy Scout's room? Ewan ko kung meron, pero buenas kung meron ha. Kami wala naman dati, pakalat kalat lang. hahaha Stairs still the same, I forgot kung may aircon din sila, pero dapat wag na, kasi alam na.. Ang amoy after ng PE tapos may magpapabango.. Ayos na. hahaha Ewwwww.. Hmmm, di ko na nabisita yun mga laboratory.. Siyempre di mawawala yun not because of science classes.. But for some nasty things.. Alam na. hehe Sad thing lang siguro, yeah, buti pa HS ngayon coed, eh kami, kailangan pang mangraid ng all girls school para makikilala ng girls. hehe For me, nah, sa interaction ko lang nagawa because sobrang shy ako nung HS.. Yun iba, talagang likas na malalakas ang loob.

Of course, wala nang mang John burger, kakamiss lalo na pag gutom ka pa at bago pumasok, mang John muna. Mura eh, 16 pesos ata double cheeseburger, the cheese is queso. hehe At siyempre, ang institution sa lahat. Di ka Lourdesian pag di ka kumain ni isang beses sa Lourdes snack!!! Hi Aling Lourdes and company! hehe I'll reserve one post for them. =)

When I see those kids going out from HS, they look fresh ha, kaunti lang yun parang nerd o castout.. Unlike in my days, pero wag ka, grabe pala ang mga bata ngayon. May mga average ng grades 75 pababa, at marami sila! Naku po.. Ano nangyayari sa kanila.. Dati, grabe, kahit may mga maloko di naman sobrang tamad magaral, pumapasa lahat. These days, I don't know, maybe they are much glued with new things, what's in or out, carefree.. Geez.. Kids shouldn't be thinking like that. Oh well, one factor siguro kaya sila ganyan.. Wala na yun mga best teachers na maguide sa kanila. =( Damn, I miss those teachers. Siyempre ng buong batch din. hehe

Ah, di makakalimutan ang escape route bridge, ah este yun bridge.. Maraming tao dun pag intrams dati. Takasan eh. hehe Yun gym, I don't know pero dapat di semento yun. Classrooms, still the same, oh classrooms, what happens there, stays there, forever!!!!!!!!!!!

For the people, well, from the present teachers and admin.. I haven't really talked to them again, pero kaunti na lang kasi yun mga luma talaga. Siyempre yun beloved Prinicipal eh kilala namin, dating english teacher yun eh.. Pero matalino naman, liberation of mind ang tinuro sa min. Alam na nila kung ano yun. hehehe

I hope na kung ano na lang yun discipline dati, sana nainstill pa din ngayon kasi di sa pagmamayabang, the system before works if not on a career wise, but at least yun values and personality, it helps. Saka yun nga, yun mga teachers na talagang sobrang galing, kahit ako di natuto kasi tamad ako. hehe

Everytime I pass there, brings back happy and sad memories but I just laugh about it because this school, kahit di siya ang pinakamagaling, I owe my values, some techinical skills and foundation of my faith.. It came here.. my Alma Matter, Lourdes School of Quezon City.

When I was asked in college, san ka nag HS? Sabi ko Lourdes, ah sa Manda! Sabi ko, ah may Quezon City po. Mas magaling. hahahaha

Di ko sinabi yun actually.
