One hour and thirty three minutes left before we say goodbye to the year 2009. As I was writing this down, I was starting to remember from the memory bank those events that caught my attention or those happenings which are remarkable.
I'm not really good in remembering the past events lalo na yung arrangement kung alin ba ang nauna. ahahaha
Anyway, try to pa rin ituloy tong ginagawa ko. By the time siguro na matapos ko tong blog na ito eh ilang minuto na lang ang bibilangin at new year na.
As far as my memory is concern, my jowa and I broke up early this year perhaps it was around feb or march or april. I forgot the exact month pero un nga, It was really really sad and I was hurt indeed. Kasi I really devoted my time, effort and I did sacrifice so many things pero wala lang. What's the worse? even friendship was no longer valued by .... Pero xempre I learn to move.. Hindi naman ako naging stagnant. Kasi life must go on kahit wala na xa. Ang dami nmn jan sa tabi tabi, I just have to choose who is real and who's someone I can trust.
**********
It was May 16, 2009 - my last working day to my previous company - TELETECH. I decided to leave that job for some personal reason. First, I was fed up and burned out. Sinusuka na ng utak ko at katawan ang routinary activities that I'm doing there. Pano kasi, most of us were happily working in SST-CHAT LOB until the time that the client decided to move it to India for some strange reason why I did not fully understand. Most of us were transferred to another LOB --- CHRONICS. Doon, most members or callers are irate. Ma ha highblood ka tlaga sa kanilang voice and unique issues na you really need to resolve or else you will hear really bad words from them. I tried it for like a month?.. not sure though pero ako na ung umayaw though my stats were good then. Todo pigil nga ng TL Mike ko eh but I said I really have to go and quit the job. Reason? -- I will take my masters degree and I need to teach first. nakalusot naman. :)
**********
I was a tambay for a month. Di rin masarap tumambay because there was nothing to do at home. Kain-tulog-nuod tv- kain - tulog,, nothing new. Gala? minsan lang eh at I dont have internet connections yet that time kaya sobrang jologs and boring.
**********
I got my second job -- Online ESL Teacher @ YBM. This is my current job as of the moment. So far, it was good though Im experience this dilemma that my mind was telling me to quit again due to the environment and the people in my work place. But then, I'm not sure where my feet would lead me.
**********
Regarding sa news around -- we were surprised by the sex video of Katrina Halili and Dr. Heyden KHo. It was uploaded in Youtube and dvd copies were everywhere. It placed katrina halili in shame. pero this girl is a fighter. She fought for her right. But I dont know what happen to that case now. Im not sure if Dr. Heyden Kho's license was still valid.
**********
Another breaking news -- our beloved tita cory died. It was like another people power in a positive way. Her follower or let say those people who believe in her gathered at Edsa waiting for her -- sa libing niya. The Aquino family was really shaken and felt really bad to what happened to their mother. There's more - These four people who firmly stood up until tita cory's body was taken to the cemetery were labeled as FANTASTIC FOUR. Panu ba nman kasi, four 8 hours, they did not move, rain or shine, they stood up still. They did not mind the hunger and thirst they were feeling. Panalo talaga sila.
One of the worst situation that the Philippines encountered especially, the MANILA area was the coming of the super typhoon ONDOY. Oh my! MANILA was drowned in flood. Houses cannot be seen anymore, only rooftops. People died, houses were destroyed, business were sunk in to the dirty water. Ang hirap talaga ng naging sitwasyon ng mga tao sa MANILA, PASIG, MARIKINA, MARILAO and other affected areas. Kame naman, kakaibang experience, we were stranded at NLEX that time for 20 hours! Shockable! We were heading to the airport nun kasi flight ng bro ko back to CANADA kaya lang xempre, we were not able to come. Dumating kasi sa Airport - NAIA - 8am na ng umaga. Good luck diba? But PRAISE GOD kasi all flight has been cancelled due to the bad weather condition. Blessings pa rin ang nangyari. Pero un ang isa sa unforgettable experiences ko.
**********
Lately nmn, we heard what happened at MAguindanao.. Several journalist had been killed without mercy. The suspected people behind these unmerciful killing was the AMPATUAN clan. It did not stop there. The President declared MARTIAL LAW at MAGUINDANAO area just to bring back peacefulness in the said place. But now, back to normal na.
**********
I knew some new people this year. These past months, aside from my batchmates and from the people in my new workplace, I knew other people through the net. Some of them, I used to talked on the phone. Parang mga flirt time ganun. We talked on the phone for sometimes then after a while, di na nagpaparamdam. So maybe they were not really serious to know someone better or to be called as friends. I hate those people na bigla nalang hindi magpaparamdam ng walang sinasabing reason. When you asked them why, wala lang. Minsan, I though na sayang ung mga efforts like nagpupuyat ka just to talked with them, ung pagpunta and to meet them, at tsaka ung mga conversation, nakakapanghinayang lang talaga. Pero syempre, hindi na dapan ni iintindi yung mga ganong tao.
**********
Ayan, one hour more and its new year already. I'm still here in front of my computer trying to finish this. Wala na rin ako maisip eh. Tska this might be long enough at di na basahin ng mga tao jan. Maybe, i will write part two. Kasi for sure there were still some things na maaalala't maaalala ko.

Nightwatch Service
Every end of the year, our church prepares a special service called Nightwatch.
Ito na kasi ung last service for the year kaya nmn expected na rin na maraming tao ang dadalo.
This year, ako lang ang nag attend ng service to represent my family. I also asked myself why was that so. TO answer my curiosity, I asked every member of the family to know their reason.
Ate and her husband including ate jho, they told me that they were already tired the whole day. They cleaned the house and prepared food for tonights celebration.
Ate Grace, my eldest brother's wife, she's tired too for the same reason.
My youngest sister, Rachelle, was not home. She met her college BFF and got her hair trimmed and relaxed.
So there, I am the only person available to go. If pinairal ko ang katamaran, for sure, hindi rin ako pupunta but then, someone inside said to go though im alone.
I was so blessed on tonight's message. It was about a new beginning, a new start, from the book of Ephesians 4:20 and follows.
THen after the Pastor' sermon, BURNING OF SINS follows. It was the time when we wrote down our known sins for the whole year in a sheet of paper. On the other sheet, we wrote down our prayers and wishes for the coming year. No worries, nobody can ever cheat or see what you have written down, and beside, susunugin un in front of the altar. I watched my paper to completely burned.. ehehehe.. The funny side, I almost needed another sheet of paper to write down all my sins for this year. [joke].
Hopefull, I will over come those sins and eventually, become a better and strong person for this coming 2010.
I cannot help but thank the Lord because I am a Christian. Because as early as I now, I was able to know what is right, what should be done and what should be avoided. I am not perfect though, I admit I still commit sin. But that makes my life more meaningful. Because of those experiences, I become more mature, kahit hindi halata minsan. I learned alot of things as well from my past experience. Just like what the saying goes, ...'experience is the best teacher' -- which I totally agree.
Let us all welcome this year with hope and love. :)
Happy new year to everyone!
I speak blessings to you and your family.

Quality Time
We planned this like a week ago and finally it happened. After our shift yesterday night, we [ guia, jacq and tiya rishelle with hailey and her husband] headed to Starbucks - Araneta.
Our shift ended at 11pm yesterday night. Then right after that, we went to the said Cafe shop. This time, I changed my order. Normally, I ordered Peppermint Mocha Frap but I asked for some suggestions because I wanted to try another one. Guia told me to try Tofee-Frap. I tried it. It was good too... But I still preferred my original type. ehehehe..
So there, we spent the whole night there, talking, laughing, eating, smoking, talking other people, work related issues, we put Jacq in to the hotseat to share how she and her new boyfriend became together, then next in the hotseat was tiya rishelle. We talked about a lot of things. Funny thing was, we never had dead air. We always find something to talk about.
Hailey and her husband went ahead, so the four of us were left. Ayun, there were so many mosquitoes. Dun kami nagstay sa labas. Pinapak kame ng lamok. It was around 2am nung mag close na ang Starbucks but it did not hinder us sa aming masaya at katuwa tuwang kwentuhan. It was full of fun.
At pagkatapos pagusapan ang kung sino sinong tao, nakailang yosi din ako nun, next stop was KFC. Ginutom kame and aside from that, we wanted to move to a place kung saan mosquito free. Last time, we went to MCDO so just for a change dun nmn sa KFC, mag katabi naman sila ng stall.
Para naman maging legal ang pagtambay inside KFC, nag order na kame. Ako, I like to eat tlaga kasi I was kinda hungry na rin. So there, kain, kwento, kain, tawa, kain, kwento at di pa kame nasiyahan, nag tambay pa kame outside KFC, yosi break ba. Then continuation ng kwentuhan,,, non stop.... grabe! no dead air.. as in.. sana nga nakatulog ung mga taon laman ng aming kwentuhan eh. PEACE!
Until we noticed that the lights were starting to turn off automatically. Tska it was already 6am, so we decided to go and parted ways and another thing, Jacq's stomach and even my stomach were aching. Grabe.. napupupu na kame.. ahahaha
Dont worry, slept in the bus at umabot ako sa bahay. When I reached home, I immediately removed my pants, nakaboxers nmn ako and went right aways sa bathroom. [wink]
Second bonding time namen this day and we talked about soooo very very many many things... Next stop, if God permits, CDO kame or BORA. Sana lang at wish ko lang matuloy.
Let's spread the love and PEACE to all!

Happy Holidays!
I was so busy these past days kaya naman I almost forgot write something in my blogsite.
Well, this will be all about Christmas season and how I did celebrate it.
They said that Philippines is the only country that celebrate Christmas in the longest time. Panu ba naman kasi, September pa lang, people start to decorate their houses with some things pertaining to Christmas season. Aside from that, they start to go shopping, buying gifts for their family, friends, loveones, at xempre sa mga ni aanak nila.
I failed to go Christmas shopping. One reason is my work, kasi ba naman, til Dec 24, I need to go to work. In fact, I welcomed Christmas day sa loob ng bus while I was on my way home. The feeling was so sad but then I realized that time I was not alone, dami rin kasi tao sa lansangan eh.
Christmas will always be Christmas, whatever your situation might be, kapag ganitong season, lahat ay abala..
This year, dun kame nagcelebrate ng Christmas sa lola's house ko [mother side]. Because my grandparents [father side] were already in heaven.
Nakakamiss lang kasi always dun kame eh tas this year, sa mother side na ang celebration.
So dun nga kame nagstay after lunch,we headed to Norzagaray, Bulacan to visit my lolo and lola.. we spent like 3 or 4 hours kasi gabi na rin.. Ofcourse, di mawawala ang food.. dame.. I ate a lot... I never mind diet that day.. kain kung kain..
Inuman was there as well. Dati tumitingin lang ako, but now, nakiupo na ko.. Isa na ko sa mga manginginom sa family namen. But dont over react on it. I dont drink much. Two shots lang at umalis na ko before pa ko maglasing and magkalat..
There, I met my other tito and tita na once a year or kapag Christmas ko lang nakikita.. it was really nice to them again.
The place was still the same, a quiet one.. Lolo and Lola looked different kasi they got sick a couple of months ago but they were healthy now..
About the picture, just check my facebook account. Ang kukulit ng mga poses namen dun with my pamangkin..
So there, it was one of my most memorable Christmas ever..

Happy Holidays!
Philippines has the longest time of celebrating Christmas all over the world. September pa lang, you can see people starting to decorate their house in preparation for Christmas. Most common decorations are Christmas lights, lanterns, Christmas trees and other stuff. Christmas season ends on January 6th. People believed that January 6th was the time when the three wise men found baby Jesus with his mother Mary.
What happened on this year's Christmas?...
...Well, I actually welcomed Christmas day while riding at the bus going home from work. You might think that it was sad, well, you're right. I felt so sad but then I said to myself that I was not alone. I was not the only person in the bus so at least we were many.. hahaha..
Christmas, they say, is for children. So traditionaly, children go to their grandparents house or even to their godfather and godmother [ninong and ninang] to give respect and to greet them. Along side with the greetings is the hope of getting gifts from them either whether it be cash or a present. Whatever you give to the children big or small, it is special to them.
So far, I only have four ni-aanak [godchildren]. Today, three of them visited my house. I was not able to take the picture of the other one but here are two pictures of them.

My mother just cooked spag and ham today. So those were the good we shared together.
After lunch time, we headed to my grandmother's house [mother side]. There, we spent the rest of the day. It was a long while since I last visited my grandparent's house so I felt really good to see them. I remember my grandmother always tell to everyone she see that she was the one who took care of me when I was still a kid. She's really proud of me. ehehe.. grandma's boy..
This is my grandma and my mother...
So there, we brought some food that my mom cooked and we ate together..
We took some rest and did some talks with other relatives we last saw for quite a while. We took some crazy pictures on the hill. I called my nephews and niece to pose there and do some wacky styles.... very funny...
Yeah! It was fun for real! We enjoyed taking pictures on the top of the hill. It's good to know that my pamangkins are masunurin.. Kasi when I told them to do this and that, they follow me. Kaya if you check the pictures, ang kukulit ng dating. Just check my facebook account for more pictures about this event.
There was also a drinking session with older brother and some relatives. I just took two shoots of redhorse. It was kinda strong for me and the shot glass is not the common one. Its a glass already, I mean kinda big glass. So after two shots I left the drinking session and went somewhere else to escape. I did not wanna be drunk so I did that, found ways to escape from them.
We also went to Tita Oya's house after. There, we met tito larry and their two sons. They were good looking and tall men. We ate spag, macaroni salad, ham and bread and soda. Tito Larry took us home using his car. [wow! totyal]
30mins later after we arrived home, I ate again, this time I just wanted to eat a half cup of rice and ham. So there,, I ate too much today. It was like one week of my meal. But no regrets. Today was full of fun.
Happy Birthday to Jesus! It is because of HIM why we celebrate CHRISTmas. May we not forget the real meaning of celebrating this season. It's time to give back all the praise, glory and honor to our creator..
Time to sleep ~~~~
Peace be with you and let's spread the love....

Simbang Gabi
In the Philippines, we have 9 days of Simbang Gabi, I believed we got this tradition from the Spaniards way back hundreds of years ago. Up until now, most churches, especially Catholic denomination, are still doing this.
This Simbang Gabi starts at Dec 16 and ends at Dec 24. Some churches do the service at dawn at around 5:00am perhaps. Others do the service at night at 7:00pm like what our church is doing every year.
For this year, tonight was the first time I attended the service. Simply because its weekend. As I told you before, my shift starts at 2pm to 11pm,, so I cant attended the service on weekdays.
Anyway, it was really fun to attend. Aside from the word of God you'll receive and blessings from HIM, joining the game is one of the awaited moments of most children like me.. hahahaha
Like kanina, I joined a game, very funny game and I lose it.. But it was fun. Indeed!
Kuya Rey gave the message since toningh is the night of UMM (United Methodist MEN). The gospel was from Matthew 2:1-12.. About the coming of the 3 wise men to visit Jesus and worship Him.
At the end of service, there's meryenda.. WOW! Pancit Bihon.. eheheh.. Nice! Complete package from food for the soul to food for the stomach. AJA!
Well, today would be the last Simbang gabi I can attended to because of my job. Partly sad because I need work.. syempre para makasurvive to all my expenses though God is my great provided, I still need to work for it, diba?.
So there.. my first simbang gabi was tonight. (Dec 20, 2009)...:)
Peace to everyone and let's spread the love... :]

so unusual...
I remember one incident in my life which I think is so unusual. I'm not sure if this particular happening is usual to other people. Anyway, here is the story.
I was on my way to my workplace, currently in the bus almost near Cubao area.. A new friend called me up. We talked on the phone. We were still talking until I get off the bus and walk in Farmers Plaza. We talked about a lot of things including personal preferences because we just knew each for like several days way back then. So there...
I was walking while we were talking on the phone. I thought of stopping somewhere because the sounds of moving vehicles were too loud and I can barely hear and understand what he was saying. I was near Puregold area in Cuba. I stopped in one place and continue talking with him because I still have some time. I was early then.
When you spoke to someone on the phone, definitely you will make facial expressions. I was nodding, smiling and other expressions while talking with him. Then I looked at somewhere. There was a man walking. He looked at me and smile. Probably, he thought I was smiling at him but the truth was, I was smiling because of the topic my new friend and I were talking about. Then this man, perhaps in his mid 20s [age], not ugly but fairly good..so-so... not looked like a holdaper or whatever bad people image.. he was wearing a colored shirt, jeans and sneakers... He stopped and held his phone. I was scared. I felt so terrified. I was so nervous because he stopped but 2 split away from me. He was near to where I was standing then. While talking with my friend, he was moving closer to me. I tried to move away, to get farther from him but he was following me. Then I heard he said "...kuya...kuya...anong number mo".. he was asking for my phone number... shit! I was really afraid. My heart beat so fast... I walked really fast too... I told my friend that I have to put the phone down because there was a stranger following me.. I ran.. not really fast but I ran and try to find a jeepney to go to work... that was really a sweating experience.. I sweat a lot because of nervousness... -- the end --
Anyway, that was it. I never thought of someone, a man, who will ask for my number. HAHAHA.. I'm laughing to that particular thing every time I remember it. though somehow, it was a weird thing.. but its okay now. It never happened again.. sooo unusual to me...

There was a man walking. He looked at me and smile. Probably, he thought I was smiling at him but the truth was, I was smiling because of the topic my new friend and I were talking about. Then this man, perhaps in his mid 20s [age], not ugly but fairly good..so-so... not looked like a holdaper or whatever bad people image.. he was wearing a colored shirt, jeans and sneakers... He stopped and held his phone. I was scared. I felt so terrified. I was so nervous because he stopped but 2 split away from me. He was near to where I was standing then. While talking with my friend, he was moving closer to me. I tried to move away, to get farther from him but he was following me. Then I heard he said "...kuya...kuya...anong number mo".. he was asking for my phone number... shit! I was really afraid. My heart beat so fast... I walked really fast too... I told my friend that I have to put the phone down because there was a stranger following me.. I ran.. not really fast but I ran and try to find a jeepney to go to work... that was really a sweating experience.. I sweat a lot because of nervousness... -- the end --
Anyway, that was it. I never thought of someone, a man, who will ask for my number. HAHAHA.. I'm laughing to that particular thing every time I remember it. though somehow, it was a weird thing.. but its okay now. It never happened again.. sooo unusual to me...

Act of Kindness
Yesterday night, I went down for my lunch to buy something to eat. I headed to the HK Style Noodle stall because I was craving for their noodles. While I was waiting for my order, I was looking around observing what the people were doing. Then someone caught my attention. Just on my left side, there was a foreigner, perhaps an American guy together with his son eating in one table. Then, there were 2 kids [filipino kids] walking there asking for alms, or limos. This American guy called the 2 kids. I heard the guy asking the 2 kids if they want some food. Well, because these children dont know how to speak English or maybe they really did not understand what the man said, both of them smiled and nodded.
The man went to Chowking to get something. I guess they still had some more food so he gave those spoon to the kids and had them share the table. I was observing these kids, they were shy and hesitant. While the man was not around, these 2 kids attempted to talk with the son of that man. Maybe did not really understand each other but I saw this american kid nodding to both of them. The man came holding 2 tablespoon. Probably, they still have some more food so he gave those spoons to each kid and let them eat.
I was moved because that was the first time that I saw a foreigner who invited children to join them in eating. I think that was a good form of help instead of giving them money.
Then, I looked at the person who was cooking my noodles, he was smiling because he was also observing that foreigner. Anyway, my order was ready so I got it and paid then went back to the office and eat.
The spirit of Christmas is really on the air. Such act of kindness showed that Christmas time is really for kids.
I rarely see some kind of an act of kindess like the ones I observed yesterday.
Not many people, especially foreign people in the Philippines would do that same.
I'm just glad that there are still some who are willing to help.
Sigh.. that was really touching.. :)
Peace to everyone and let's spread the love.... (",)

Back to regular programming!
It's always been my line each time weekend is over..
Back to regular programming..
I don't know but I always feel that weekend is really short time for me.
Though I don't do anything special about weekend but Sunday night makes me feel that ooh... its gonna be monday, im gonna be working again, im gonna be talking for 5 days, im gonna speaking with my korean students, im gonna be seeing people I dont really want to see...
Oh well, im just happy that I have my job. Because I know, its really hard to find a better job nowadays.
Actually, I was really happy to be in this kind of job until I've known the people, the environment, the community where I am working.
I thought its gonna be just my first impression but it was not. It lasted and until now, that's what Im seeing around..
If Im gonna consider those bad things around me, I will quit my job.
But..
I cant think anything right now.
My mind is being clouded by soo many things--- good and bad..
One thing is clear, Tomorrow is Monday and I need to go to work.
I dont want to explain anything to my superior so I have to be on time or better yet, be early as possible.
And you know what, this kind of job that I have was the first job that I encountered in which you will need to write down reason why you came late despite the number minutes that passed by. Even if that is one minute, OMG! prepare yourself for a notice of explanation.
It's one of the company's policies so there should be no further question on it..
Maybe, Im just over reacting about it because in my previous job, its fine to be late.
Sometimes, I thought, who really cares when you came late? Its your salary which will be deducted, its you who will be labeled and its you will be put in to shame when that happens. I dont really care whatever people say about me. Its not their business anymore. They can tell me bad things, they can say shit on me, but they should be careful because once that I came to know that 'trashtalk' they've been saying, its the start of the WAR between me and them.
I was not born to please everybody. I just want people to mind their own lives. If they wont be saying anything good, they might just shut their mouth up.
Im not against anything or anyone. All I want is to live a simple life. No further questions or what.
Life is already complicated. So, why dont we just make it simpler.
Okay.. Okay.. Okay..
So much for this emotional outburst..
What was bad today? I was not able to attend sunday service at our church this morning because of my laziness. Well, I have a flu yesterday and I was thinking of going to the church today but then I got up soo late like 10:30am and my head was like getting bigger because of migraine and I cant breathe so well due to clogged nose.. It was really sad because I know I can but I did not do..
Im not sure what is happening to me but seemed I was in the stage of getting colder.. waaaAAh!! I dont want to think that! I dont want that to happen!!! AAAaaah!! I should not think about that anymore.. erase..erase..erase..
BTW, i just watched the movie "FUNNY PEOPLE" by Adam Sandlers and the movie was really awesome. I've learned a couple of things from that movie and I was able to somehow, relate myself to the story.
It's really hard to make people happy, to make them laugh. It's hard to be stand up comedian like what George and Ira did in the movie especially if you have a serious problem? How can you possibly make other people laugh by your jokes or weird stories if you know to yourself that you are not happy?..
That movie taught how to become strong and how to have courage in facing life's challenges.
So there.. that was it. Nothing special about my weekend this week.
Hoping for a brighter tomorrow. Hoping for more blessings to come.
Hoping for a good luck to happen. Hoping for a new love to find.
Hoping for whatever good life is offering..
Hoping for a better life in the next days..
Peace to Everyone and let's spread the love.

Big Bro House@ YBM
The countdown to Christmas had started... So in our office, each spine [station] should be decorated with a theme of "christmas village". Our team made an impressive looks. We thought of making a real house and it really appears like a house inside the 28th floor. Take a look on the picture here.
The idea came from each member of the team. With the help of our most creative teacher, Victoria, we all made it to happen. This yellow is often called the Sogo-Hotel.. hehehe or the House A from the Big Bro reality show.
Though some the members were still conducting classes when this picture taken, we still wore our perfect smile.. NIce One!
The second house was located on the corner of the 28th floor. Teacher Diana made it all by herself. It looks real. You can tell that you are in front of a wonderful house with all the Christmas decoration on it.
Ofcourse, this picture taking wont be completed without the wackyest post ever...
I think if it would be a contest for each team.. we'll get the first prize. As I can tell, we have the best decoration ever.. Career mode kasi eh.. With all the paintings and cartoons and drawings and gift wrappings.. sure win!
Hopefully, we'll receive our 13th month pay before 21st.. OMG! I'm running out of cash. I even got my savings... I'm BROKE! I'm BROKE! plus! I need to pay cc bill and net and some other debts tooo.. poor marcus.. :(
and.. im still sick.. I think its sinusitis already.. my eyes are watery, cant breath normally, clogged nose, dry cough.. what else?.. fever... sigh... get well soon to me.. gosh!!!
PEAce to all mankind! spread the love.. ahahaha

who is teacher marcus?
I recorded a video of myself while I was conducting my class on the phone with one of my korean students. If Im not mistaken, the student name is Ricky or David. This student was already good. His comprehension worked well though I still have to speak using simple terms since he is only 12 years old.
It was really funny because I can now see myself behind the phone. I mean how to I react in my student's answer, my gestures, and the likes..very funny..
LOL! LOL! LOL!

Online Now!
Before Internet has been created, people were living a not so techie life. Life was simple then and there was not much complication.
But I realized that ever since Internet has been known to the public, people are always online.
I was a highschool student [freshman] when I created my very first email. I did not much about computer then though we have a computer subject in school that time. My teacher taught me how to use some basic applications in the computer such as MS WORD and the likes. I was interesting to know about those stuff.
But out of my curiosity, my friend and I tried to use the first time and we both created email address. I was really amazed. hehehehe [pure and innocent mind].
When I was in college, I begun to use the net more often to search for homeworks and projects as well as to do research about literature, which was my major.
I then created another email address which was from google.com.
As time flies, I then do some more search on the net. I created accounts on different social networking sites such as friendster, facebook, tagged, multiply, youtube, imeem, myspace, ilike and the latest was this blog. Though I had so many accounts, I only manage 4 of them: facebook [all the time], my blogsite [most of the time], mutiply [to check updates from other friends] and tagged [to know more people]. The rest were in history.. :)
Internet is not only finding interesting and not so interesting people or site, its also a place for finding a bunch of bunch of information. Just type your keyword in the search box and his Enter... It will automatically gives you the related result for your search! That's cool right?!
I've done so many things while on the net, chat here and there.. establish friendship to people i really dont know. Watch x rated videos and porns.. those common stuff.
Anyway, because of the Internet, I discover a lot of things. I've learned lesson from other peoples point of view. I saw some who were like me. I've known some friends from different parts of the philippines and some were from other countries.
For me, the Internet helps me grow in terms of maturity, personality and the likes. However, somehow, I think it's teaching me how to be more liberated though I can still control myself.
I think its all in the mind whether you will let your own self be effected negatively by what you see on the net, by what you hear and by what you've read.
It is indeed true that we should not give any personal info to unknown people to avoid being a victim of scam or what.
Well, if you are looking for a date online, you must be really careful. I guess some of the pictures people are displaying in their profile are not the most current one. I guess its just their "front" to attract people. I'm not saying this thing based on my experience because I have not had any but its just a thought.
Just to share..
I've known three people from the net [tagged]. These people are cool and I 'think' they are true. The first one person, I am still having contact with through sms though not very much. The second person, we became really close.. at first.. I think it was like 2 or 3 weeks, we've been happily exchanging sms, phone calls, emails.. then one time, it stopped without any clear explanation from that second person. We have not had the chance to meet in person though we saw each other through exchange of pictures. The third person, I still have contact with. This person is still a university -graduating student just like the second one. Well, just the like second, we've been talking on the phone, sending sms, emails,, and we met once. I went to their house and we watch a movie in this person's room. After that meeting, our "relationship" became cold.. [relationship - as acquaintance] No more phone calls, sms not pretty often anymore.. though we still send sms.. so there.. some people I thought were good.. hehehe no regrets of knowing them.. those incidents had been added to my memory bank.
Anyway, we are responsible for the acts we are doing. We have to stand and face the consequences of whatever we do. We have to admit that sometimes, our curiosity brings us nowhere. It can also make our lives miserable.

I'm sick...
I have teary eyes now. I'm sick. I got the common flu and colds. Too bad. It's really hard to get sick especially if there is no special someone who will take good of you. I guess, I just want to have someone to watch and care for me though its just for this time.
Well, I know this sickness wont last forever. Perhaps, 2 or 3 days more and I'll be fine again. But right now, I really find it hard. It's getting in to my nerves. My head is aching and I feel really really tired and dizzy.
I cant go outside because I'm broke. I don't have enough penny to go anywhere. I only have a thousand box which I think wont be enough to cover my one week of expenses. Anyway, I heard from someone that the 13th month pay will be given on Monday and Tuesday is our payday. Yeah! Answered PRayer! I badly need money now. My credit card bill is due on the 14th of this month, my net bill... I dont know yet.
I guess, my earnings will be devoted to those bills. I just hope that there will still some for me to spend in buying gifts for my family and some closed friends.
Sigh....
13 days to go and its Christmas time. I cant wait for that holiday.
Everywhere in the neighborhood you can see colorful lights blinking and Christmas trees with a lot of decoration. Ooops! There is a tall Christmas tree somewhere in Cubao area, just near the Araneta Colesium. Here is the picture.
Aside from that big one, there is another big Christmas tree infront of the Eastwood mall. Here is it...
There is a small one inside our building...
with my co-teacher named JOY...eheheh
Well anyway, so much for that stuff. We cannot change that fact anymore and I'm glad and I cant wait for Christmas..
When I'm sick and got nothing to do. This is the only way I can express myself or the only way I can spend my time in order not to feel bored or something. I need to be better now. Come on! Maybe I need some medical treatments like "YAKAPsul" and "KISSpirin". whahaha.. kidding! :) (naughty)

Badtrip!
You know what? this day was really terrible.. I was late at work ... again.. I should not be late but due to that sooooo heavy traffic jam, I was..
Another thing is that I have a soar throat.. My voice was really strange today. I wonder if my students were scared or something..
Plus,,, this someone is not texting me anymore.. tsk tsk tsk.. dont know what wrong with that person...
Anyway,, that's all I wanted to say.. Im really really in a bad mood the whole day..
PS: There is someone that I really hate in the office... But I decided not to mention anything about that person in my page.. I will just post it here after I resigned..
But for a clue, this person I am talking about is a GIRL.. yeah.. a GIRL.. I so hate her.. I dont like her.. She's two-faced for me.. Ever since I met her and introduced her to me, I had this feeling and as I interact with her, I found out that I was right...
So much for that non-sense thing.. I have to survive... Im planning to give my resignation letter as soon as I get my 13th month pay and my salary on the 15th of this month.. But anyway, it is still a plan.. there maybe changes.. not sure..
See yah!

Shrimps Ahoy
It all happened at Shrimps Ahoy. I mean, our Christmas party with the following people:
- Ivy
- Jen
- Dene
- Chel
- Bujoy
- Madz
- Your highness
- Cath
- Jam
- Mommy Cristal
- Mike
- Jutz
- Malvin
- and me...
It was December 6, 2009 at around 7pm perhaps when we saw each other at the said resto. It was really cool because last year's Christmas was on the same date but it was at Yellow Cab in Macapagal. I just missed the old times because of some people who were not present yesterday..
Anyways, we still had fun as we ate a lot of food and drunk so many buckets of beer.
Plus, that night wont end without the gift giving!. Yeah... very cool! we were like children as we exchange our gifts and as we opened what we got.. that was a very funny moment...
And.. the guy waiter there.. the girls were like always calling him for assistance... panu kasi mi hitsura.. kaya tong mga babaeng ito.. pa-pam-pam... hahahah
Well, hopefully, that wont be the last celebration we would be having.. though we all know that we will be having different paths to take in our lives, let us not end the friendship there. Communication would be the best means to see each other again after a while... So guys, enjoy the journey of your lives... Goodluck to all our endeavors!
Merry Christmas and Happy new year!

PLANETSHAKERS
I was with a friend yesterday night at the Araneta Colesium. We watched the concert of a foreign Christian band named "PLANETSHAKERS". They were all the way from Melbourne, Australia.
Their songs were really really good and all of the people were so blessed and moved especially by the words of encouragement from Sam, one of the female vocals, when she shared how she knew Jesus Christ.
There were so many people, especially young people all over from different churches from different places around Manila area. It was good to know that all of those people were seeking on how they can be deeper in their relationship with God.
I was so touched on Sam's words when she told us that going to church will NOT save us rather it will make us religious. In order to be saved, we have to ACCEPT Jesus Christ as our PERSONAL Lord and Saviour, which I believe is very true.
I'm hoping that those people who raised their hands and followed the prayer of acceptance would be true to themselves and live a christian life.. though its really hard to practice what you preached but at least try and trust God to do the rest..
By the way, I was with Sherwin, my friend who I knew from the previous company where I worked with. He will be having his wedding next year. The date is not certain yet.. hehehe

In the Bus
Yesterday, around 11am I was going to work. I rode a bus and sat on the space at the back part. Then another guy sat beside me. While we are on our way, another guy rode a bus and it so happened that they know each other. No we were three on the seats.
While we were on the highway, they were talking about something. I heard most the things they talked about. Well, actually I was not listening but since we were just sitting side by side, I can hear what they were talking about.
This guy A, who rode the bus first was telling guy B about his experience about gay. Guy B asked how's he doing. Guy A said, he lost all his gay friends. As in literal na gayfriend. But hey! Guy A has a girlfriend.. So parang ang gulo ng life nia.
Anyway to continue with the story I heard, GuyA told GuyB that he lost all of his supporters (gays). Grabe no! Kaya pla siya naghahanap ng bading ay para lang perahan sila. As in literal na supporters ang turing. There was one time daw na nahuli sya ng gf nia dating a gay somewhere in Malolos area. Yun ang pagkakarinig ko sa kwento nya. At eto pa, his gf, pinagtetext daw tong mga gays na kabit nitong GuyA. So what would you expect? E di iyon. Nagkabukingan daw. So marami palang gays na karelasyon tong GuyA. Tsk tsk tsk.. And now, he was suffering kasi wala na nga susustento sa kaniya after that incident...
I just can't imagine how rude this GuyA is. At eto pa, he was currently texting someone then nung magkasakay kame sa bus. He said to GuyB that he is about to meet another gay somewhere in MAkati yata. Pero sabi nung gay sa text, wala daw syang pera to treat the guy.. You what this guyA told guyB sa kwento nia?... "Wala nmn palang pera to eh, wag na lang mag meet!"..
It was funny and at the same time, mejo ang weird lang. Kasi this guy was after the money.. MUkhang pera in short..
Perhaps, he had so many victims already. Poor gays.. And karma for this GuyA hehe..
But actually, he doesnt look good at all. To be honest, I look better than him. Yun lang.

migraine
The current time here in the Philippines as I'm writing now is 12:07am.. which means its already Monday, 30th of November. It also means that later in the morning, I need to go to work again as it is the start of a new week..
Well, for you to know, I'm an online english teacher. I teach korean nationals on the phone. Most classes are for 10 minutes only.
You might say 10 minutes is really short. Indeed, it is too short for those students who are already good and somehow, fluent in English. but on the other hand, 10 minutes is really really long enough for those beginners which are mostly kids.
But anyway, I've been working for like 3 months already and somehow, I'm getting used to the daily routines...
The work is not stressful but the travel time is. Imagine, my workplace is like 2 hours or more away from my house including the time I spend waiting on the bus if I encounter heavy traffic jam..
I'm near to quitting this job, I swear. But I'm trying to look for a boarding where I can stay near my workplace to somehow ease the pain that I'm enduring now.
One reason that I feel like quitting is the environment where I work.. When I say the environment, I mean the people in our office. I'm not sure but I'm feeling like they are not really true people or the other way around.. Not all of them are true for sure.. That's why I'm really careful not to meet those who are back stabbers but I think I met some already.. hahaha
Well, I must continue the journey. Quitting my job now is not practical because its hard to look for a new one and start again. Plus, christmas is near! I need to save some money to buy gifts for my parents, family and friends too. So I have to focus my mind on things that really matters. What are those things? I dont know yet..
I think I need to sleep now. My migraine is really a pain in a butt. I can barely feel those veins pumping so hard on my forehead. I can feel the blood passing by those tiny veins.. It's getting into my nerves.. But it's not new to me. I always get migraine each time I fail to eat on time.
It's my fault anyway.. When I'm in front of my pc, I almost forgot the time. Time really flies..
Till then, bloggers! You'll see more of my writings next time..
Adios for now!
I finished this writing at exactly 12:21am now...
sigh... good night!

Hang out with Friends
It was November 21st when my friend, Ivy celebrated her post birthday bash at Astor Hotel [Best Western] somewhere in Makati City. What was special about it? For quite a long, we have not seen each other yet after we resigned in the company where we used to work for like 2 years and more. I was the first one to leave the company on May.. Then she followed on August? I'm not really sure..
Many others resigned too for the past several months.. While others remain working there bearing the pain in their asses.. because of.... well, that's confidential I think..
It was so nice and cool seeing their faces again.. Nothing has changed or maybe, their faces and body built remain the same.. They are now happily working in different companies under the same field (call center).
We ate, drunk, and slept in the morning.. The whole night was full of laughter and tears ( kakatawa) because of Vickay, who was really good in making fun of things most especially in Ivy's boobs..
If her boobs can just talk, it would say "Stop mentioning my name all the time!" hahahaha
----->
Just right after checking out from the Hotel, we went to Glorietta 4 to watch NEW MOON..
We went first to Starbucks before going inside the theater.
That movies was really shaking..
Though it still has the love story of Edward and Bella, but this time, it was more of actions and fighting scenes.
I like the part most when Jacob transformed into a BIG wolf and fight with his friend.. plus when Jacob was about to fight Edward in the latter part of the movie..
I so love ALICe, Edward's sister.. she's an extraordinary vampire with a great fashion sense.. hehehe
Her aura is really really different.
----->
We parted ways after the movie. But I went to National Bookstore first and try to find that book my friend need. It was a fiction-novel entitled "The Old man and the Sea" by Ernest Hemingway. That book was sold out and no more stocks in Fully Book. But I found one at National. I bought it for him and went to their house at 18th Ave., Cubao.
There, we watched the movie 2012. That movie was really amazing in terms of the effects and visuals. Oops.. Actually, it was the first time that we saw each other.
I just knew this guy through tagged and you know what, we lived in the same province. However, they moved to 18th ave. , when he was still a kid and stay there until now.. But he visits our place often so he is still familiar on how our place looks like now.
----->
I arrived home at 30 minutes past 9pm I think.. I was like 2days and 1 night away from home. I spent my weekend with people special to me.. No regrets at all. I spent a lot of money maybe but the time I've been with them was the one I value the most..
Best Halloween Ever
Edward Cullen of Twilight or Heath Ledger of Dark Knight? People find it hard to identify if I was a vampire or Joker of Batman.. hahahah
I remember... On oct.31, it was halloween and it was the first time that I let myself to look like a vampire though I appeared more like a clown..
It was so funny and my teammates were so proud and were laughing out loud on my look. Though I did not win as best in costume, I will surely never forget the idea of wearing make ups and bearing the laughing sounds from the people around. Plus, the fact that it was the first time I did that.
We just made fun of the situation...
Did some posings...
Did some posings...
And ended the night that way..
Of course before going home, I removed those make-ups and paints on my face.
But I thought of going home in that look, however, people might be amazed or scared and might thought that I was insane so I did not pursue that..
Anyway, I consider that as the best halloween ever!
Thanks for YBM. :)

Last Sunday for this Month
Today is the day when my korean student will come over here to the Philippines to study in an Academy.
I clearly remember our last conversation on the phone. He will come to our office and see me.
I'm sooo damn excited seeing him.
By the way, his english name is DEAN and he is 11 years old.
We were so attached to each other though we only talked for about 2 months every m-w-f at 22:10 KT.
He said that he enjoyed our class times because it was full of fun.
I'm looking forward seeing him on Monday.
Hopefully, he will remember the details on how to visit our office.

Howdie bloggers!
This is the first time that I came across this site.
I am so excited that I created my very own blog site under blogger.com.
I'm fond of writing stuff.. I let my mind speaks as I write anything.
At times, I find myself crazy and laughing out loud on things which I find it weird and unusual.
Hope to find more people and make new friends through this site.
I welcome myself to this new world I'm about to see.
