Kung Ako'y Isang..

(pari)

Once a catholic priest asked me pagkatapos ko magsuggest na kailangan ng maraming pari sa kumpisal, na bakit di daw ako magpari. Or another instance na pagnasa confession booth ako then after I speak eh tanong ng pari, pari ka ba? 

Of course, I answered no. It's not really my calling.. =)

You can see I'm religious and siyempre di pa spritually matured. hehe Magkaiba yun, at naisip ko din, paano kaya kung nagpari ako. Kahit sila kuya na nagsabi na magpari daw ako para ako daw mangumpisal. hehe But nah, di talaga para sa akin yun pagiging pari. Although I follow or understand yun mga pari, like sa homily na we should pray that na dumami ang mga pari, to claim the harvest of people. The fisherman of the people. 

Besides, pag nagpari ka, medyo maraming perks.. Libre kainan pag may nagimbita. LO pag may ginawa ka for a ceremony of sorts, or special favor like masses, weddings, confessions or pray over, house blessing and etc. Of course, may title ka, FR. Many adore or follow you, considering as a leader ng community. At pagkilala o medyo sikat na, plus media exposure like other priests. =) No taxes din at yes, you'll not be affected for many problems in your life like family or personal problems kasi you'll be more devoted of serving the community and the church itself. 

Well, kahit ganun ang perks pero siyempre may mga bawal din, hmmmm kahit profession siya, eh di ka naman pwede gala ng gala, or gimmick. Kagaya yun nakita ko sa XXX channel 2 show na pari eh nagbeerhouse.. Nasawa na siguro sa mopo lang iniinom. hehe You cannot go like travelling a lot, kasi everytime you travel eh most of the time, missions. Worse, go to the countries that kung hindi war torn, eh hostile pa with other religions, mahigpit. 

Di rin pwede kumita kasi yun mga nakukuha mo donation or LO eh para sa simbahan, di naman lahat para sa iyo. hehe You can't even have a car agad kasi depende sa church yan or well, matagal ka na nagipon. How about putting up a business? Di din pwede, kung mayroon man, malamang bawal isolo mo lahat ng kita. 

Siyempre, wala namang pari na di religious, I mean bihira ka makakita na after mag mass eh alis na tulog agad like what we do professionals. hehe Dami pa gagawin yun. 

At ang mahirap sa lahat, no friendly dates or real dates with women and in the end, the hardest part of all.. You cannot marry. Damn.. =(

Besides all that pros and cons, ang pinakagusto ko naman sa mga Pari eh yun total dedication nila kay God, in the name of Jesus Christ for the service they do. Devoted to serve not only yun usual parishoners but also to reach other people who are lost, confused, depressed or even looking for answers in life. Or how about yun mga katolikong nagsisimba lang pero parang di pa masaya. Priest teaches those people not only to pray or read the bible but also, doing service for God. Loving him unconditionally and serving people without asking for return. Spreading his eternal words to people in the most simplistic yet holistic way. Fearless because of deepen faith. Lovely because of unconditional love to him. Giving hope for those who felt nothing is going their way. 

As a representative of the high above, it's a honor talaga na serving Him and left everything for him. Yun talaga ang tama according to the scriptures, leaving everything behind for him, as you'll be blessed riches in heaven. Naks, but that's their motivation, not the riches here on earth. They are the bridge for the people going closer to him. Kahit mahirap, di sila nagrereklamo. Kaya bilib din naman ako sa kanila, even they have a lonely life, they seem to be not alone kasi sa strong relationship through those in the same faith at lalo naman kay God. 

Sana naisip ko din, pwede din na magpari na lang ako matagal na. Tahimik siguro ang buhay ko ngayon, living without real worries. Pero kaya di ko din kaya kasi gusto ko naman magkapamilya. =) More importantly, loving someone that will live beside you forever. 

I have different reasons pa pero sa ngayon, I know my purpose in life.. I'll make sure na one part of my life or may mga sandali na nakapaglingkod ako sa iba for the glory of God. 

But for priest, the glory of God is always with them.. 

At that day they agreed to give up everything they have, even their own happiness and followed him. =)

CD-R KING

Kulang na lang Ref ang gawin nila o siguro, sariling computer set. hehe I mean the processor, RAM, HDD or even motherboard. Lahat ng  peripherals meron na sila eh. 

I can't believe na around college days eh ang binebenta lang nila ay mga blank CD lang. Then DVD format arrived, nag blank DVD din sila, tapos nagbebenta na sila ng peripherals noong but branded. Still they don't have POS machines. Old school, hardware type payment system. Lista, bayad tapos resibo, yun lang. Kaya talagang matagal ka pag dumaan dito. 

Pero nung tumagal and almost a decade, dumami na branch nila at yes, cannot believe they made their own set of devices, even TV's, LED tv's pa! DVD players, cellphones, modems, other appliances and even generators! Yes, small generators. Geez, nahiya pa sila. hehe Siyempre nandiyan pa din ang mga blank DVD, CDs and other household things. I don't know how they were able to expand their business but siguro talaga its the matter of saving for the future operations. Although may mga nagsara na CDR king like sa Quiapo at UST, even sa DLSU wala na.. They have a lot of branches naman, at dumadami pa!

I can say that this shop or venture eh one of the successful ventures I saw in the recent time. Not super big time pero despite of decreasing price of electronic parts or gadgets at sama mo pa na laging nagbabago ang computer parts and the dawn of mobile computing eh lalo pa ata sila kumikita. At lumalaki pa.. Nakita ko nga yun operations nila just by monitoring them. Prompt service and knowledgeable staff, kahit si ate eh kala mo sa sari sari store lang ang dating o iba kamukha ng mga tindera namin.. hehe Pero yun alam nila ang ano parts ang kailangan, o ano pwede, yun mga technical info alam nila. Hirap siguro ng training nila. hehe Their tech support ok din, test muna bago kunin yun order. Sa dami ko binili sa kanila, bihira lang ako nagkaproblema, I forgot na nga kung ano yun. I want to thank them kasi sa kanila lang ako bumibili ng blank DVDs for my well vast collection. hehe Mura kasi blank DVD at may quality pa. 

Pero definitely, it's an one stop shop for all your IT/computer needs! hehe Si Kuya nga, sa sobrang lakas ng CDR king eh binabase niya na yun presyo ng Memory card or flash drive sa kanila kasi may mga customer talaga dun pa pumupunta para bumili. Kaya kahit maliit tubo niya, no choice eh, kailangan isabay mo yun presyo mo sa kanila.

Panget lang sa kanila, well kasama sa pagtitipid yun old school system nila, kahit matagal pwede na pagtiyagaan pero sana pagisipin nila in the future na maging electronic na di ba. Siguro umiiwas sila sa additional tax! hehe

Naisip ko nga na magfranchise o kahit kami ng family kasi talagang kumikita siya at ang mahirap na part sa operations eh inventory siguro. Lalo na ngayon, ang dami ng gamit na ginagawa nila! Kaya kakaawa siguro na nagiinventory nun. hehe 

Isa pa pala na medyo alanganin.. Eh sa monitor, TVs at LED/LCD tvs.. I'm not sure kung reliable, pero one time may nagpapalit at mukhang galing pa sa malayong lugar yun customer.. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, mukhang magdadalawang isip ako bago bumili ng monitor or LED sa kanila. hehe Eh paano ba naman, sira na TV after 6 years of wear and tear.. Kaso pag sa SM ka tumingin or ibang appliance store, mahal talaga.. Out of budget. Crap.. 

Well, I'll see kung ok sa kanila, hoping it's worth the buy.

I hope they will grow further, and yeah marami pa sila maserve na customer at oo, marami pa silang maemploy na tao...

Sana tuloy lang nila na affordable yun prices for the masses.. 

Of the computer needs. 

Ate Aila

My real biological sister. Great thing there is a rose between the thorns. =)

I can say that as much for my dedicated sister in the family. Well, to tell you the truth, we only got closer when patapos na ko ng HS until now. Eh those years, I have not really find which sa family that I can ask help or confide with. Mahirap ang mga taon yun sa kin, kasi naman for what happened but important eh at least may isang tao kahit papano nakaintindi sa kin. =)

Well, sana magkalapit kami ng edad pero hindi. Almost a decade ang agwat namin tapos ayun sinasabon pa din kahit ngayon. hehe I still remember those fond days of staying at her clean room with tons of vinyl album covers, namely most of them, Rick Astley! 

But yeah, maraming bagay ang tinulong niya sa kin. Una na diyan eh sa math! I am really slow at math before, lalo na sa multiplication table. Pero siya yun nagtiyaga sa kin magturo every Sundays noon, that was wayback grade 4 pa ko. Sobrang tiyaga niya sa kin at nagbunga naman. Ayun, ok na ko sa math until now except for word problems. hehe

Hmmmm ah siyempre, UST! Ganun to kaloyal sa UST although siyempre ibang batch and courses kami, nabigyan naman ako ng tips about her experiences. Ah, taga gawa din ng project siya lalo na sa mga art project at T.H.E projects. Artist naman kasi. Permanship lang talaga ang di niya natiyagaan sa kin, kasi ako naman ang may problema talaga dun. Until now, crooked writing pa din ang dating ko. hehe

Kahit strict siya, well.. Tama naman siya but not all the time. Especially these years na may mga sinabi siya na kala niya ginawa o ginagawa ko pa din pero di niya alam. I'm done at those things. I learned my lessons and ayun, pinagbibitangan niya pa din ako. Even I want to reply at those things, di na.. Palampasin ko na lang at kalimutan ko na kasi di naman nakakasakit sa kin. Kaasar lang minsan pero sige pagbigyan ko na lang. hehe

I even became close to her noong tumira ako sa kanila in LP for my HSBC years/ex years. hehe Siyempre, may bonus ka pang kasama like Kuya Dong, my wonderful brother in law and the kids sila Pristie and Kathryn.. Sobrang laid back at saya, lalo na sa music and movie lover at one of the funniest guys I've known na si Kuya Dong.. Mga medyo sosyal pero mabait at masipag na mga pamangkin ko. Very active Pristie at sobrang jolly na si Kathryn. Well, minsan nga kakahiya talaga tumira dun kasi siyempre family yun, panggulo ka pa. So, ayun they let me feel na welcome naman ako lagi sa kanila. =)

Ah, as years goes by.. There, they have a very lovely home.. A better living and yeah, I can see na masaya sila. Lalo na si Ate, although ayun there are problems to solve pero gusto ko kay Ate eh malakas pa din loob niya na they will go over what's happening and making ways to make life simpler or easier. 

Even she only cooks some foods and not perfectly.. hehe Pero as a wife, for me, ok na siya at kaya't mahal na mahal siya nila Kuya Dong and nila Pristie and Kathryn. I forgot, yeah thanks to my lovely Ate eh nakakapagregalo ako sa mga nililigawan ko! Siya ko nakuha yun mga tips for gifts for girls. hahahaha

Ate, I know for now you will tell what's best for me and other members of our family. It shows how you love us very much despite of what's happening or so.. At the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for it and don't worry, I hope, as in my case, trust me for my decisions or ano yun gagawin ko for life. With all your advices o kahit dati, ikaw yun taga curfew ko, hehe I learn a lot and I won't do any actions that really ruin my life. I know I've a lot to prove or achieve pero sana just leave me and let me live what I can and wanted to. 

One day, you'll see what I am talking about. =) I have my own plans and I know what to do. Thanks pala sa lahat ng mga tulong ginawa mo, alam mo na yun kung ano. hehe Sobrang dami tinulong mo sa kin, like this computer that I am using now, even it's medyo bibigay na, eh tinulungan mo ko how to get this one before. =) I'm sorry if sometimes pasaway pa ko or failed pa din. 

Kaya, I pray that you remain as you are or improve siguro sa cooking. hehe And be a guide sa mga magagandang pamangkin ko, alam ko kaya ka ganyan kasi you love them but also learn to feel and attach to them in a nice way. At siyempre, be a good wife, I know di mahaba pasensya mo, pero due to your love kay Kuya Dong.. Aba, medyo humaba ang pasensya mo at I can see and feel that you love Kuya Dong always and forever. Naks.. Parang nakita ko yun phrase na yun sa frame niyo. hehe

Be strong and enjoy that you have a close and loving family. Both you and Kuya Alpro are lucky and blessed, you both have a loving and supporting family which I believe one day, success will come. 

Don't forget to pray to Him always.. And, for us.. 

Continue to be a great loving Sister to us. =)

Until now, well Stephany is a great medyo social name. I don't know Aila, where did our parents get that name? hehe See? Siblings have quite weird names. 

Except me! hehe

broken lines (collection 29)

There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens.
A time to be born, and a time to die; at time to plan, and a time to uproot the plant.
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build.
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces.
A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak.
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.


Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. A poetic thought from Him.. A time for everything.

Punishing Fire!

When I was able to watch Amy Winehouse's concerts, and at last! Nakita ko na din kung gaano kapanget yun EVA na remake.. I was stunned at this piece of gadget that definitely make my film addiction going through, my internet surfing easier at some gaming na din.. It's a well time xmas gift!! Thanks!!!!!!!! hehe

Ah after I sold Griffith at a bargain price, I was able to search for a product to really solve all my concerns especially when it comes to playing all my movies in my very vast library. In a short budget of course. hehe 

First I thought of siyempre S2 or Galaxy Note na kahit second hand since maganda ang review sa gsmarena.com at proven na! Feeling ko din, kaya niya iplay yun large movie files. Kaso kahit 2nd hand, I don't have that much money. hehe 

I thought of waiting for a new computer but the problem eh kailan pa yun? 

My DVD player, eh can play AVI files and some large AVI files but not mp4, mkv, m4v, and all other movie files. Bumigay pa ang TV ko. hehe 

I searched sa google and long and behold! I found what I need. 

I checked the reviews first and almost 90% of the reviews were positive at parang naisip ko, aba ok to ha! Mura at mukhang maasahan pa. Kahit Android OS pa, besides iOS won't be available in any other platform except Apple products. 

This is the Ainol Novo 7 Fire! Yeah as you see, weird name. Actually look at their website at ainol-novo.com kung tama ako, they have a lot weird names sa mga tablet nila and yeah, forgive the wrong spelling and grammar. 

Anyway, after I placed the reservation and waited for almost one and a half months eh nakuha ko na din. Thanks to the help of Rheg. hehe The mean machine I can say, like other says, one heck of a tablet. Kaya pala pagnagpareserve ka dito, siyam siyam ang hihintayin. Overflowing ang orders and yeah, this baby did not disappoint. 

It's a 7 inch full touch IPS screen, corning glass.. Aluminum back and malinaw yun resolution. Partida, di ko pa iniilaw yun kahit madilim. Pwede mo pa siya iset na malinaw! hehe

It is run through Android Jelly Bean, 4.1. Ah has small speakers pero better use your headset na lang. Maganda sound niya ha, crisp like my Nokia X2-00. Ah specs? Dual Core processor with dual core graphics kaya 99% ng movie files ko umandar, yun 1% actually palpak lang yun file nakuha ko. Yun isa mali ang subtitle, yun isa di ko malipat dito from the DVD. hehe Take note, no need for video converter programs!!!! Yeah!!! Just drag and drop na lang. 

At yes, dahil na din sa great free movie players like mx player and my isa pa for subtitle files na di kaya ng mx player, mukhang makakapanood na ko ng collection ko with no worries. I know its from China and you may doubt the quality, pero grabe, this is the only China made tablet that has great built and easy to use. Di mo akakalain na galing sa China. 

Maganda pa, no need to drag and drop using iOS. Plug and play lang with the help of OTG cable through USB at ayun parang naglalagay ka lang sa memory card! hehe I forgot it has 5 megapixel back camera, 2 megapixel front pero I rarely use it. hehe Pero I can say, not bad pictures it can take. 

Ah, yes! It help to decrease the time opening my computer, and do some stuff that I do dito sa computer ko. I can even bank sa online BPI without downloading their app. hehe It has FB, YM, Twitter at my palm na. Minsan eto na lang binubuksan ko other than my computer, lalo na pag katams na. The only thing left na di kaya eh warcraft 3 and other games na mas maganda sa desktop computer. At siyempre other computer applications. I can write blog naman kaso yun app na gusto ko, binibili pa sa android play store. Makapunta nga sa greenhills baka mura yun app at makakuha pa ko ng ibang app na trip ko. hehe Mas mabilis pa ata to kaysa sa computer ko ngayon eh. hehe 

About warranty, well may distributor naman sila dito at wala naman ako narinig na sirain for this one kaya I feel tatagal to. =)

Panget lang? Hmmmm walang Ishield para sa model na ito. May nakita ko, kaso 1thou at walang warranty like Ishield. Bwisit! hehe Mahirap maglinis ng screen nito. At yeah, mahirap hanapan ng accessory nito like cap leather case. Geez ayoko puro gasgas to! I forgot na may HDMI cable ito for playing files in your HDTV, pero wala din naman kwenta sa kin, lalo't wala naman ako TV. 

I forgot, pwede pala lagyan ng memory card ito, micro SD and up to 32 GB. 

Well, the best part of this gadget that really shocks me? I only bought it for around 8300 brand new with some accessories. Warning, wag sa gameline bumili. Panget ng package nila! Mas maganda pa sa sulit.com.ph or other retailers na nagbebenta nito, same warranty at mura pa ng mga 300. Peste kasing OTG cable yun. hehe OTA whatever. Anyway, yeah.. Look at kindle fire, $200 pero no memory card extension. Galaxy Tab which mga pinakamura WIFI version, 13k. Then IPAD which is what? 25k pinakamura although maganda pero well.. You need paid apps to get good movie players at malamang di pa kaya ng subtitle. Like my Itouch 32gb, nah.. Ipad Mini? Malamang nasa 20k yun pinakamababa estimate. 

Eh dito, by the way, di pwede sim card, pero pwede siyempre USB dongle or simply wifi connection na lang, wifi hub pwede sa kanya.

Meaning this thing is a great value for money. Definitely. Period. Kaya tawa ako ng tawa sa mga ibang tablet na mura nga, hirap naman yun touch or well, has single core at malamang di kaya yun lahat ng movie files. Or maliit lang ang memory. 

Dito, sure na, kahit anong file, naplay ko na kaya happy ako na di lang mapapanood lahat ng movie files that I have but also do other things as well. I just need to get those apps at a very cheap price. Peste kasing Android, ayaw sa jailbreak. Mautak. hehe

Punishing Fire, it's named after a magic card na champion years ago sa legacy grand prix dito. Ang ginagawa niya parang bumabalik yun card then 2 damage. Basta may kacombo siyang card na kaya nagchamp ang deck na to. 

Layo no? hehe Pero siguro punished lahat ng movie files ko, kaya niya iplay at siyempre ang mga kalaban niya. hehe I don't care about what brand you have sa tablet. Eh basta ako, lahat nandito na. 

Ah, yeah! They have released a quad core 10 inch tablet for only $200.00 plus shipping mga $20.00. Hero II pangalan, feeling ko dito mga 11k yun kasama patong nung mga retailers dito! hehe Naglabas sila ng same 7 inch but quad core na, Flame 2.

Sa susunod, ok na yun Hero 2! Parang naging mura si Asus transformer dito. Kawawa naman. 

I don't know if I'll sell this one, it's hard to sell kasi natuwa ako sa kaya niyang gawin. Pero pag mura si Hero 2.. 

Aba eh kuha na! The tablet Killer!!!! =) Sana lagyan nila ng slot ng simcard para tapos na ang kalaban. hehehe

flashbacks: Wasaque na Wasaque!

I look at the ceiling and telling myself, here we go again! hehe This time, it's worse, not really.. 

That day was the final day working sa previous team ko at Teletech. Pero siyempre, sabi nga ni TL, work life balance daw, so nagyaya sila na mag inuman, kahit saan daw. Actually naisip na sa timog pero well, biglang naisip sa Ortigas na lang, metrowalk na. At that time, noong una ayoko kasi damn last day at gusto ko na magpahinga! hehe Pero yeah, since wala pa ko nasasalihan na outing with the team kahit once, well I don't count yun Total Recall showing, eh sama na ko. One and done!

Yohoo was the place na pinuntahan namin. I thought barbeque han lang siya, kasi masarap talaga barbeque dun, from chicken, liempo, at kahit isaw. Eh, matindi din pala sa inuman ito! Mura ang bucket lalo na sa patay na oras, which is hapon before night hours. 

Edi yun, actually dapat Jose muna, kaso ishot daw pagdating nung iba. Aba eh ala naman magtiniginan lang kami o kumain, ilabas na ang mga kabayo! 

Of course, mabagal ang pace ko kasi siguro naisip ko lang that time eh mga 10pm nasa bahay na ko. So there, kwentuhan, explain kung bakit ako aalis and sorts, at laglagan din. hehe Aba nung matagal tagal parang after ng 2 bottles eh mga bucket pa dumadating. Si TL umalis sandali, may pinuntahan tapos pagbalik niya, dun daw tatapusin yun Cuervo. Edi siyempre ako naman, di naman ako aalis na di nagpapaalam kay TL, kakahiya naman ata. 

After around 8pm, ayun dumating na yun iba totoma, tapos nakabalik na si TL. Wow, parang naka 5 bote na ko.. Pero parang wala pa ko tama, ibig sabihin kaya pa! Matagal tagal na kasi ako di umiinom ng Red Horse. Anyway, yun na! Inorder na ang Jose Cuervo, at siyempre, may asin at lemon na. Alam na.. Iikot ito. hehe

Eh ang problema, after ng isang round ng shot, aba kumonti yun magshot ng Cuervo! From 8 ata, naging parang lima na lang kami. At ang dami pa!!!! Bad trip naman, mukhang 12am na ko makakauwi. Anyway, yun na.. Edi dahan dahan inubos na namin.. Ako eh, kaunting tubig, CR tapos shot yun lang. Hanggang sa umabot sa huling shot eh gusto I forgot yun term basta ilublob yun shot glass with Jose tapos isama sa Red Horse!!!! Barrel ata ang tawag, anyway.. Wow! After that, parang wala na.. Dun na ko tinamaan.. Parang gusto ko na matulog at makalimutan na to. hehe

Nagpaalam na ko kay TL then say goodbye to my former team mates. I went home riding a cab at nagising na lang ako nasa Retiro ako. Aba, nakatulog na ko, so nakauwi naman ako.. Go straight to my lovely bed then fell asleep!

Before I sleep, naisip ko pa na grabe eto na yun pinakamatinding inom ko na di ako nagkalat! Well, I was wrong..

Around sometime in the morning, I woke up and starting to vomit a lot.. At ayun, tulog ulit. Then some moments later, ayun na ulit!!! Crap! Pagkatapos magkalat, ayun.. Inom ako ng tubig.. Oh God, after some sleeping time, ayun na.. Kahit yun sinuka ko na. I said to myself, pag may suka pa ulit, punta na ko St. Luke's..

Well, after ng tatlong beses na pagpunta sa toilet, di ko na kinaya, I ran and called a cab. ER sa St. Luke's sabi ko sa driver.. I was not able to call sila Kuya o Mom kasi baka maistorbo ko pa sila sa pagtulog. Anyway, yeah.. 

I went there sa St. Luke's very dizzy at parang nanghihina na ko.. Sabi ko na sa Nurse I need help.. Then ayun, after some check up and questions, punta na ko sa ER. Then, yeah.. Staring at that ceiling once more. Praying that I hope this will end. I also made promises to really well tama na siguro 'to. I enjoyed already a lot through drinking, so hinay na talaga.. But while that was happening, eh eto na, doctors coming in, nurse doing the best care possible and ako naman, ayun nagkalat! Nasuka ko pa yun nainom ko atang tequila. Kulay Jose eh. hehe

Then another bad news came, Maxicare won't cover the expenses due to alcohol causes. Company doesn't allow that. Sabi ko lang sa agent, ok and ok. Deep inside, I'm in deep sh*t!

Oh well, wala na ko pera, magkano kaya to? As much I want to follow the doctor's advice na calm down and sorts of things, eh mukhang di ko magawa! 

Then ayun may tinurok sa kin, I was breathing oxygen all the time and yeah.. I'm kinda relaxed. I also thought na this is the price to pay for my binge.. Geez, I'll never going to go back in this place again due to drinking spree.

Mom was very worried, even Dad and siblings and I told them what's going to happen and pay.. Damn.. I can't imagine  how stupid I am. I thought of a lot of things...

Then, around 9am, si Mommy eh nandun na din, giving me something pero di ko pa pwede kainin o uminom... All the result sa blood ko, sabi ng doc ko eh ok naman, nothing to worry. The doctor also told me to avoid some foods and yes, even drinking for a while and reseta tapos go home. 

Billing was the scary part, kasi baka umabot to ng 20k!! St. Luke's eh.. Pero thank God.

Nagulat ako sa bill, aba it's 5k plus lang, sabi ko may budget pa ko, kaya pa to. 

I am blessed afterwards that Maxicare covered the bill. Wow, I stand up, hold Mom and went home. Although hina pa din ako paguwi kasi wala akong tulog at siyempre suka ng suka aba nakapahinga na din ako. 

Hay, thank God for that and yeah, I enjoyed getting the rest, no more going to that work na napakalayo and mahirap due to the opening hour. I'm very grateful that I'm still here.. 

Making amends and doing the right things. 

About drinking, yeah, until now wala pa naman inuman at kahit niyaya ako ng CRAP ng Vodka at nakita ko na naman si Jose eh I declined even kasama si Doc. 

Kahit nakakuha ako tips na dapat talaga hard muna bago beer at pag ganun ulit nangyari which wag na sana, drink Vitwater pala than Gatorade. hehe

Pero the best way na para di na umabot sa ganun, talagang 2 bottles na lang. At kung hard, kaunti lang. Talagang iiwas na ko, and besides may susundin na ko healthy regimen these coming months. 

I want to thank God, and yes my family for the love and understanding. Naks! 

For now, I'm happy na unti unti eh medyo layo na sa inom, taking care of my self and enjoy life in the right way. 

I still can't believe na may mas matindi pa sa Bellevue Scandal! 

This event eh eto na pinakamalala at eto na yun pinakahuli! =)

Eto yun masasabi kong Wasaque na Wasaque ako! hehe

Beware eating at, Mcdo!!!!!

I don't really eat in this place. I only eat one kung sobrang gutom na ko.. Two! If somebody wants to really eat there, that can be negotiated.. Lastly, because of Super Size Me. hehe 

Pero di lang naman yun ang mga rason kung bakit di ako kumakain sa Mcdo.. Eh there are factors why I don't really eat in this place. 

The value for their menu is not sulit talaga. I mean, ang pinaka sulit sa lahat na serve nila eh una sa lahat yun Hot caramel/hot choco sundae duo. hehe Hmmmm Pwede na din yun mcdo chicken nila kaso di talaga nakakabusog. Or how about burger mcdo meal pero katapat lang kasi nun Angel's burger na dalawang order pa! hehe Lahat dun eh di na masaya, namely McChicken sandwich meal and yes, their expensive utterly, pathetic big mac meal or yun isa na gusto ni Ate na quarter pounder meal. Well, sa kaunti kasi ng order eh parang di ka mabubusog. Their 50 pesos na mcsavers ba yun, ilang minuto lang tapos na. And yes, their meals are very not on budget. If Wendy's are over the top sa mahal ng meals nila, eh Mcdo is catching up. Lalo na yun McChicken na sobrang liit, at yeah, masarap siya but I can get the same goodness sa KFC! Order ka lang nung Chicken Fillet meal nila 80 pesos plus well 20 pesos for larger size and yun na katapat ni McChicken. McChicken at is around 140 ata. Geez, no way!

Tapos yun double cheeseburger nila, I like it but nah.. Parang kulang pa din. Their fries are good, no doubt, pero yun lang kaunti din. They don't serve Sarsi unlike other fastfood restos.. 

Noong kumain kami ni Algerro sa Mcdo, parang siya lang yun masaya, gutom kasi. hehe Pero ako, natuwa lang ako sa dessert. Yun inorder kung burger mcdo meal, nalungkot ako. hehe They became from bad to worse when it comes to pricing. 

Suprisingly, when it comes to service, they're pretty nice at nagagawa naman nila ng tama. Other than Jollibee na mabagal at minsan nakakalimutan ang follow up. Sa Mcdo, mabilis at kahit maraming tao, they work systematically. Delivery din, ok sila, they seem na mabilis, no frills or hassles. Branches? Well, they have more accessible branches than other fastfood chains. Except lang siguro dito sa malapit sa house. hehe 

Sadly, they need to really change their pricing strategy, especially sa meals nila. Masarap pa naman yun burgers nila but it's that well, they need to level their price sa iba. Sa Jollibee, eh ok na ko sa 100 kasi you can order spaghetti meal at yun 49ers or 39ers, busog na ko. Sa Mcdo, 100 bucks is not enough. I know it will be difficult for them, pero they need to really fix that. 

They can also make amends sa menu nila. They can make other dishes perhaps, other than mcspaghetti or mcChicken meal. Or that pathetic chicken fillet meal na parang ginto for 50 pesos! 

Siguro make other dishes since nagawa na nila yun mcspaghetti, why try other meals? Hmmmm Basta look na lang sila sa mga kalaban nila. 

I know they are not really making any efforts to retain na number 1 sila sa market. They rest their laurels of just serving the same menu and yeah, doing clever ads and banking at happy meals but dapat maging conscious sila in the future. Baka matalo pa sila ng ibang establishments, lalo na yun resto type of fastfood. Dati, yun Mcdo dito sa D.Tuazon eh puno lagi, ngayon.. Dahil sa Mang Inasal, Chic-boy at yun ibang dining resto pa malapit sa D.Tuazon, aba madali lang bumili sa Mcdo. Di na masyado mahaba ang pila. hehe

Kaya for now, they need to make a drastic change for their pricing/menu. Mabuti yun lang problema nila, unlike yun iba na ayoko, ang daming problema. hehe 

Pagnagawa nila ng tama, aba baka ipromote ko pa sila.. But never ever part of my food choices or simply..

Not loyal to them. Sorry. hehe 

I'll enjoy their sundae perhaps. That's not going to change...
