 well Im still busy looking for something to do...

maybe something to read....

Or to go to eat yet???

Cguro to do my assignments  instructors gave us later this day???

baka naman to clean up the whole room na naabutan kong disaster?

I can also check if hershey's already here?? [lhyn texted me the bitch is coming]

auCk! I found something.....

reaD Po...it's beautiful....

When we think of blessings, most of us think of events, things and people that make us feel good. We think of “interventions” that come our way and bless us with good fortune or tidings like winning the lotto, a promotion, a bonus, an unexpected windfall of cash or other material gifts. We look at them as special because they are desirable and being the recipient of such bounty can be wonderful. And because of this, we have no problem seeing the hand of God bringing these to us as we profusely thank heaven for smiling down on us. God has answered our prayers.

But when we experience unpleasant things, we think otherwise. We are convinced that bad luck has befallen us, and some may even think that it came from the devil or some malevolent spirit to test us. In short, what we experience is not from God because the God we know would not do such things to us — unless, of course, we are being punished.

Watching the Emmy awards the other week, I was jolted by the acceptance speech of comedienne Kathy Griffin. To be honest, even if she was just being irreverent in “dissing” Jesus, I found what she said to be quite insightful, even if cynical, especially when she pointed out that it seems fashionable for celebrities to thank God for the awards they get, as if God did not have better things to do than bestow them on the denizens of Hollywood. She added that it is no wonder God does not seem to be in Darfur because Jesus is too busy showering awards on celebrities. Basically, she said that Jesus had nothing to do with her getting the award and thanked herself. It’s not surprising that her speech upset a lot of people.

But I saw no reason to get upset. In fact, I found it thought-provoking. Why? Because I cannot imagine God getting angry over something like that, when it seems He/She/It does not seem to get upset over so many other more serious things happening in the world. If God, who is all-mighty, powerful and omnipotent, was upset over Darfur, or Iraq, or 9-11, or the Abu Sayyaf, wouldn’t we know it by now?

By definition, you’d need an ego to get upset or affected by anything someone has said, and I really do not believe God has an ego. Therefore, He/She/It never feels sensitive and upset like we do, never feels personally attacked, never feels the need to protect or defend Him/Her/Itself from anyone or anything.

We, as humans, like to think that God is like us. But people usually get upset because they have egos, and ego can do only three things: attack, defend or promote itself. Our lives are ruled by our egos and we believe the temporal world is everything. Thus, a lot of us build up wealth and power to feel superior to others, and by doing so, we think we can buy security and safety, and perhaps eternity.

I know I will get negative reactions for this, but I find some of the Old Testament and Holy Text of many religions hard to fathom, especially when they describe an angry, vengeful God who gets upset and feels compelled to kill, maim or punish. It just does not fit with the simple understanding of the God I know. Only people with needy egos have temper tantrums.

The best three “starting truths” I have learned in my catechism have been my guiding light. And they are truths I accept with no hesitation: that God made all things, that God is everywhere, and that God is love.

But you may ask — and rightly so — if God is indeed love, and He is everywhere, then why is there suffering everywhere? Does suffering come from God? Why did God allow the 2005 tsunami to happen? Why do children die? Did God, who is the source of all, give my wife cancer four years ago? The subject of suffering is one of The Questions of All Time.

I have pondered over this many times and in the process I have had to change my conclusions about my concept of God quite often, especially what I believe He/She/It would or would not do.

During some dark moments, hints of the answers to why there is suffering have appeared to me fleetingly, but have not stayed long enough for me to proclaim it as universal truth. As hard as men throughout the ages have tried, I know God is difficult to fathom and the only thing I can say is, the answers I have discerned to this question are real to me (as of now), and there are two plausible ones. Here goes.

God allows suffering in the world, the loss of property, lives, limbs and loved ones because the temporal realm does not rate highly in God’s value system. And there lies the true message. If you’re looking for something lasting, the world is not the place to find it. Nor can you depend on it to ultimately save you because it is unstable. Unlike us, God does not feel a sense of ownership or attachment to anything, much less to the world because God does not have an ego.

That’s how I think the world was designed. We are not made to last. And our ego causes our suffering because it wants to believe the world is all there is.

When I don’t get enough comfort from the above reason, I turn to reason No. 2 since it seems to always make sense when something unpleasant happens and rocks me out of my shallowness and complacency.

The second reason God gives us challenges is because He wants us to become deeper and discover our strengths and weaknesses, our spiritual depths — things we usually wouldn’t bother with during “normal” times.

We turn introspective and forget our fixation with attacking, defending and promoting when faced with suffering. Especially when we find ourselves helpless, we realize that the security walls we’ve built up can’t hold back the tide. For what reason does God allow suffering then? Because God wants to break us, to take us out of our ego trance and force us to explore the depths of being human and to expand our understanding as much as possible. Otherwise, few of us would leave the temporal comfort zone of ego to discover the truth that we also have qualities that are God-like and eternal within us. And those parts of us are more interesting to God and are the terms by which He/ She/It wants the conversation, the relationship, to eventually proceed.

In many instances in my life, I’ve felt that the bad times have actually helped shape me into a better version of who I was. Joseph Campbell was right when he said, “Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.” Those instances have built my character, for one, and forced me into a deeper quest, and a greater curiosity and relationship with the divine, even if it was just to make sense of what was really happening.

In this light — and this may sound funny — shouldn’t we praise God as well when we get cancer, get into an accident or when we are beset by misfortune?

“I got sick. Praise the Lord.” Crazy as it sounds, I have done so many times

it's by haringliwanag....

well I like to call this day "the DAy of HOPiaNisM"
the words came out from which I think very creative mind.
I came here in manila yesterday with alcohol which still fills up my head,
I came from Baby's birthday party and decided to go here because my classes just started yesterday,,

my first day, I can say wasn't so fine for me,,,
last night,I dived straight to my bed because Im really, really super tired..

Strange, I mean weird, I had hard time sleeping last night,,maybe I was just to excited to go school, yata...
my body was super tired but my brain keeps on working,,[epek siguro ng too much yosi last night]

I started packing my things up to go to school at 5am,
Im done at 6:30 then I started to feel sleepy,
haayY..sakit ko na talaga toh...most of the times, I thought I really not meant for school?
well sabi ng schoolmate ko, well she's my new found friend, her name is Elvie..
she told me, "sira, ofcourse everyone was!"
kasi naman, I always tries to be a good student as much as other's was like..

then I came at teh school at around 7:45am,,
Damn, Im super late na...
mali na naman clock ko...
I attended my first class and met my professor, his name was Sir Resty?
well he was fine,he kespt on joking ever since the class starter,
But when he started the lecture na,,whUUUoooUU! to the littlest detail, sakit sa utak!

Next was my english class, there was Prof.D
at first mataray, then later on..okey naman..
then after nun,,she's realy not,,,ipahiya ba ako??
That's fine, Uh, Im very used to it..

then last, I will name her ProF.Y...why? because naging professor ko na siya during my freshmen sa HopiA...eh di ko pa rin sya kilala,,,

thought for the day...
these lines were told to us by Prof.D when she was talking about how we should treat life as a student and how we should value everything,,

she said...Dont say you wanted to be good,because ther's no such thing as BAd

[I wasn't able to attend my last three subject, tinamad eh,,hehe]

Im all made up when kayla texted me,asking me if I got the same schedule that she had...well sa kasamaang palad,,,isang malaking "X"

well, I had 3 long days in manila,,the plan was really "iLL go back right after i finished /my enrollment because my friends who are actually my ''KATAGAY'' were all waiting for me...

At first I won more than I lost,
But I  begUn being m,ore reckless...
and looses soon surpasse what I won
I also once wage against the greatest opponent of my life, MYSELF
those who really knew me,
and once speculated the reasons why Im still this way....
I've been there, I can say...
at the prime of  my life..I've tried everything...
Many says, "everything changes"
I thought so, the I couldn't afford to loose everything!
I've already told myself that I been satisfied for what Im very eager for.
trying to make myself believe,
Then came up with something...

"sometimes, a cigarette is just a cigarette"

the idea led to something, and that something eventually led to what I am hoping and wishing for, a DREAM.

maybe this dream could lead into a dedication that will eventually lead to a goal....

Uh..what else could it be????
could it be the completion of my college degree???

auck!

enough with these!!! cool with these ideas and stuffs!!!!

Sean Kingston Beautiful Girls Music Video

I just like this song… it keeps on playing on my mind…

Sean Kingston Beautiful Girls - Lyrics

You’re way too beautiful girl
That’s why it’ll never work
You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it’s over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it’s over

Verse 1:
See it started at the park
Used to chill at the dark
Oh when you took my heart
That’s when we fell apart
Coz we both thought
That love lasts forever (lasts forever)
They say we’re too young
To get ourselves sprung
Oh we didn’t care
We made it very clear
And they also said
That we couldn’t last together (last together)

Refrain:
See it’s very define, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord…
My baby is driving me crazy

Chorus:
You’re way too beautiful girl
That’s why it’ll never work
You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it’s over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it’s over

Verse 2:
It was back in ‘99
Watchin’ movies all the time
Oh when I went away
For doin’ my first crime
And I never thought
That we was gonna see each other (see each other)
And then I came out
Mami moved me down South
Oh I’m with my girl
Who I thought was my world
It came out to be
That she wasn’t the girl for me (girl for me)

Refrain:
See it’s very define, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord…
My baby is driving me crazy

Chorus:
You’re way too beautiful girl
That’s why it’ll never work
You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it’s over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They’ll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it’s over

Verse 3:
Now we’re fussin’
And now we’re fightin’
Please tell me why
I’m feelin’ slightin’
And I don’t know
How to make it better (make it better)
You’re datin’ other guys
You’re tellin’ me lies
Oh I can’t believe
What I’m seein’ with my eyes
I’m losin’ my mind
And I don’t think it’s clever (think it’s clever)

You’re way too beautiful girl
That’s why it’ll never work
You’ll have me suicidal, suicidal, suicidal…

I just saw it on the news last night while were having some beers,,,
I actually have nothing to do with it but most of the population are talking about it..
so I googled the issue and  found some links regarding what was really been said and why Pinoy fellows are reacting so much on this,

Desperate Housewives

I understand that Desperate Housewives is one of the most popular shows on Studio 23 here in the Philippines. But I bet few Filipinos would be too happy with one line uttered by Teri Hatcher’s character in the season 4 premiere “Now You Know”, which aired on September 30 in the United States.The line in question was spoken by Hatcher’s Susan Mayer in a scene where she was doubting the findings of her OB-gynecologist, played by Serenity star Nathan Fillion. In the scene, Fillion’s character was apparently suggesting that Mayer was starting to experience menopause. Shaken and in denial, Mayer started questioning her OB-gyne’s professional abilities, and then said:

“Before we go any further, can I check those diplomas,’cause I would just like to make sure that they’re not from some med school in the Philippines?”

some anoynymous said:

“It didn’t surprised me at all, I think the writer base the (racist) lines on what he see(s) in America today where Filipino Doctors here in the Philippines studies Nursing to become a nurse assistants in the US and Europe. I think they (the Writers) are not the one degrading the Filipino talents, they just write what is the reality, what they saw or experience.

But it’s such a shame that we (our Filipino talents/skills) are becoming a punchline on every US TV series. We are not monkeys… so, SHAME on you Marc Cherry!!!”

Anyway, will Studio 23 drop this episode or just cut the lines that Susan Mayer aka Teri Hatcher uttered? Let’s find it out soon on Studio 23.

I am doing it again, it's my yesterday's entry sana pero I wasn't able to post it because the pC that i used last night was topak,,,
tonights  all about "LAST DAY HIGH"
Last day high na toh!!!! it's the ene of the semester fellow ka-hoPia!!! break muna ko sa sobrang inglishan kasi baka maubos naman stock knowledge ko,,,
it's been five long months since i stated this semester...
this semester had been a very very fun and ;tiring sem for me..
had met new buddies [some of them I already mentioned in my recent entries]
two of the most asteeeeeeeeeeeeeeg for me whose always with me thriugh all laughs and crimes hehe....
SUSPECT #1eLLi ang pangalan, 

 well she's too small,,,[joke] met her in our MGT21 class,,
have reall nothing to say more about her..bazat I realy like her,,hehe

SUSPECT #2 kaYLa ang pangalan
Thumbnail i met her because of a piece of paper..I came late during the  first meeting in our management class,,eh ang lola mo,,super pa-quiz agad,,eyun,,she gave me a piece of paper..dahil sa paper,,nameet ko si kayla,,parang HiRo,,hehe were actually classmates,,me eLLi and kayla,,

I wanted to write a good topic before I go back in Laguna,,but nothing loads in my mind..kasi naman,,super doooooper lasheng ako kagabe,,sobra talaga,,Im sort of DrOP-dead-drunk,,,,kaaya eun,,magahapon lang asa bed,,,I can't even get up to eat or drink some liquid,,,hehe

what I did is I picked up some lines and paragraphs from soem of my fave bloggers out the net...
,,,wish these words are wriotten by meself,but they're not,,,,

here it is,,it's written by ala paredes,[ ala-ism.pancitan.net]

When I pray, rarely do I ask for anything. I just say thank you for the things I've gotten and the things I'm about to get, whatever they may be. I already know I will get what's right for me and what's meant for me, be it blessing or suffering. Who am I to say what's good and what's bad for me? Best to just try as hard as I can to be grateful for both. Like that old prayer, I just pray for guidance, the courage to do the things I have to do when the time comes, and the wisdom to determine when those moments are. I also pray to help me become more accepting of the things I cannot change.

One of my favorite moments is always when the priest says "Let us put ourselves in the presence of God". As people bow their heads, you see people bringing forward their highest selves for just an instant. Putting yourself in the presence of God is actually a way of bringing forward your own God-self, reminding ourselves that we contain a spark of that divine light that created us. But the moment only lasts for an instant which is why people are not aware of it.

Life is richer for those who are aware of the sacred symbolisms of everyday actions and everyday objects. To walk into a building like a church, a temple, or any holy place, is only a symbolism of walking inwards into our own inner sacred place. We walk into a church not to meet a statue but to meet God within ourselves, and God inside others. People who cannot see the meaning of symbols either lack imagination or are too lazy to create their own.

To me, faith needs some form of ritual in order for it to be truly present. Rituals actualize the abstract, gives earthly existence to those things we can't really touch. Even love, such an elusive thing, is only really lived out through rituals; the rituals we have in each of our relationships like eating together, or spending a day of the week with each other, saying good night. Unlived faith is like unlived love, relegated to the storage room to gather dust, waiting for the day when it will be useful.

I've always been spiritual, and I've always believed in God. But when I started committing myself to my beliefs, through a regular ritual, I feel as if I turned a dormant force within me into an active one.

 i really enjoy reading this,,it made me think on how could she always came up on writing such things,,deep,meaningful and sincere,,,,I would like to be like her,,,writing freely,without discipline,,,

Then I searched the net to find ways on how I can improve my writing skills,..
I opted to find things that can help me do weell in blogging,,,
during my search, i found this,,

it's by  alina popescu from Bucharest, Romania [http://wordsofabrokenmirror.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html]

So, which are the rules?
Should you choose to participate, please make sure you pass this list of rules to the blogs you are tagging. The participation rules are simple:

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonder bread
And went right back to bed
And the history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us
Not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came falling on our heads
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and
Came into my bed
Samson Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com
Oh I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
And he told me that I'd done alright
And kissed me till the morning light
The morning light
And kissed me till the morning light

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonder bread
And went right back to bed
Oh we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
And the history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us
Not even once

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first

I cut this picture out from my old blog..
I always find myself smiling whenever I look at this picture...
I decide ton save this entry  because I wanted to revive all my entries from my privios account, I find this one really cute and interesting..( aUw! as for me, hUh!!)

Although the stories behind this picture can be somewhat embarrassing, this one do serve to remind me that once upon a time, soULjah was really really taking care of herself....

I think the more deeper meaning of this picture are impatience and single mindedness  which are intrinsic part of me as my eye brows and pimple scars in my cheeks,,(haaaaay) 
It would probably be a good idea to keep that in mind as you continue reading this post.

iLL be poSting this to my friendster account,, 
have a happy 14th of september!!

it's been two months since I picked up this book from a book sale in a nearby mall in my dorm. It's  my book review fro my course this semester, I haven't started yet...maybe I am waiting for my self for another cram  jam like what I did last year,, (hehe,, I took this subject twice,, hay,,,It's not a secret anymore)

I really planned for this review, but unfortunately lazyness attack was never really out of my system!!!!
I really hate working on project like this,,,,doing stuff like reading and writing "real and meaning ful Literature" according  to my professor...

I realized, I sounded like I hypocrite wring about how Im so excited of starting to work on this project, specially when I started reading it...UHhh..but to teLL you the truth.. I really enjoyed the whole story,., maybe Im not to comfortable in writing with discipline...I prefer to do things like this,,writing and expressing freely. . . 
  
remember my instructor talking about the grades that me and my classmates got for the midterms until finals....
he said it was a surprise.. DuHHHH!!!!  I dont like surprises,, Im quite a control freak but surprises makes me feel like Im not in control!!!!

But Things are really starting to settle down a little bit for me this semester. Either that or I'm just adjusting to my new circumstances.( or should I say to the one hundred million counts of problems that I made?) I'm going to guess it's a little bit of both.
 
Yesterday was quite fine for all my subjects. I was so excited to go to school, and everyday turns out to be pretty cool. I just hope I can continue to think and say that.
 
I just wanted to jump on here and give a quick update how things right now are really so so bad, and some are just quite okey..
Thank you for the well wishes. 
I'll update more some other day...

I know this goes without saying, but I am really feeling very weird by now  . . .
maybe it's just the weather. . .

The light has changed, as it does in the when the "ber" month starts - it should be cold by now...

Auck! but Im feeling too hot...
though its golden quality in the afternoon, which is part of what I love about this time of year. The skies are quite  clear, dazzling blue and, when you look outside, though it rains some time...
 you get the impression that it's 30something degrees perfect and fabulous out there. 
But when you step out the door you're immediately hit with June-style heat and humidity. 

The front of the dormitory was a total wreck.. as if 9/11 happened outside,,, muds were evrywhere..., 
and it made it really hard for us to go to school everyday...
thanks to the men at work!
you guys made our life quite missirable in the past three months!!!

well to describe what's really hap'nin  outside,,all I can say is it was like a sad imitation of an aftermath of a war. Everything is brown, and dirty which is a little heartbreaking in a place which used to look like a lil subdivision...


And oH!!!!! I almost forgot...
Please, please, please may it rain. . . 
I wanted to do my laundry!!!!

FYI:     It's been  a week since the water supply had been cut because our landlady hadn't pay the water bills for about a year!!  well.. as for her... Godbless . .. .

Thanks for sharing it with me this afternoon....though I sounded more of a weather reporter today....

-ciao-

I am here now..working for a research in my tourism class...
It's for the Higastes festival,,,
First I find it boring,,,I thought it was just an ordinary festival held in the province,,,

weLL,,when I started to search for it inthe internet..I also begun to feel some amazament and fascination about the whole thing!!!

Lemme teLL bout it!
The festival took place in the town of Angono... it is located in the nearby province of Rizal, Angono has always been known as a haven for artists. Renowned Filipino painters and sculptors like Nemiranda and Jose V. Blanco trace their roots to this town. A Street near the old church is, in fact, lined with the wall paintings of Carlos "Botong" Francisco, National Artist for Painting. There are also a number of galleries where one can view and purchase their work, as well as those made by their talented protégées.


I also has copied some interesting articles about the festival...
The “higante” tradition began last century, when Angono was a
Spanish hacienda. The hacienda owners concerned about costs prohibited all celebrations except for one annual fiesta. The townspeople concerned about enjoyment decided to make the best of a bad situation. Using an art form brought from Mexico by Spanish priests, they created larger-than-life caricatures of their Spanish landlords. In typical Filipino fashion, the fiesta become in equal parts, a stunning spectacle and a tricky inside joke. There too was a story that a French man happened to pass by this coastal town of Laguna de Bay as he cruised from Manila Bay. Captivated by the town being divided by a river, he predicted that someday giants would come out and become famous. True to his words, Angono can show off of two national artists - Carlos "Botong" Francisco in the field of visual arts and Professor Lucio D. San Pedro in the field of music. There are other Angono sons and daughters who are becoming big or giants on their chosen field of endeavor. Paper mache making is an art that is known back during the Spanish Era. The head of the giants is fashioned from a mold made of clay, which is dried under the heat of the sun.

With the advent of modernization and technology clay is changed to plaster of Paris and resin. The mold is then pasted with lots of newspapers then split into the middle and sun-dried, after which it is then pasted with the brown paper (the slit being covered) then sun-dried again and painted. The body is made of bamboo, but other materials like yantok (rattan) and thin iron bars can also be used. Yards are yards of clothing materials and accessories complete the costume of the "Higantes". Before, Angono town fiesta features a "Mag-anak" (family) Higantes consists of three figures, the father, the mother and the son. In 1987, Mr. Perdigon Vocalan visualized the idea of having a Higante Festival wherein all the barangays in Angono(13 of them) are to be represented by two to four Higantes symbolizing the industry or the personality of the barangay. This idea materialized with the funding given by the Dept. of Tourism and Provincial Tourism Office thus in a year after a seminar and a workshop in Higante Making , the fiesta was flooded with thirty-nine different Higantes. In that year too, there was a contest among the Higantes, thus one can see them a Higante with a duck on its head and another one a basketful of duck eggs representing a barangay that known for its fried itik and balut-making.

weLL how to get there??? Take the Angono-bound buses at the Shaw Boulevard terminal in Pasig, travel time is 45 minutes but can stretch up to over an hour as traffic tends to be heavy.
