Batangas

I just had another chilling escapade to Laiya Batangas where we had a great day spending our time in the beautiful beach of Virgin Resort. It was really awesome here and when you reach the place you will actually forget about that 3 hours journey, and the snappy breeze? of course, will surely ease your body....

However, whenever I got the chance to travel I’m very much sure that no one can stop me in grabbing that opportunity for a real adventure. Hehehehe

I was with my cool dudes here and in fact, I enjoyed the day except the time when we went home. I had a real bad headache and a lousy tummy which makes me vomits those yummy burger and iced coffee, eeewww… We had so much fun here; picture takings, a mere time for sisha and lambanog, volleyball game, skim boarding for my friends, and of course a chance for me to catch a good nap.

Check out our photos here and hope you could find some time too to visit this beach.

Gotcha!

Whoa!!!

Pacman - Ang "kamao" ng Pilipinas

Ako’y nagagalak sa pagkapanalo ni Paquiao sa isa nanamang laban nya na kung saan ang kanyang katunggali ay si Ricky Hatton. Simula pa man sa umpisa iniidolo ko na si Pacman dahil sa kanyang angking galing at lakas. Isipin mo na lang magagaling at malalakas din ang kanyang mga nagiging kalaban, ngunit, subalit, datapwat, mas magaling pa pala sya sa mga to. Nakakabighani ang tinaguriang “Pacman” ng Pilipinas dahil ni minsan wala pa man na nakakatalo sa kanya.

Pero kung ako ang tatanungin, buti nga sa kanila na natalo sila ni Paquiao, dahil sa kanilang mga nilalabas na kayabangan bago ang laban, hmp! Di nakuha rin nila ang hinahanap nila. Yan ang tinatawag na “karma.” (digital pa naman ngayon). Hahaha. Kung mapapansin nating lahat si pacman sa kanyang mga interview, likas na simple at mapakumbabang pagkatao lamang ang kanyang pinapakita kumpara sa kabilang kampo na kung hamunin sya sa laban ay parang wala ng bukas. Kataka-taka ang lakas at galing na binitawan nya sa bawat suntok lalo na ng talunin nya si Hatton sa pangalawang round ng kanilang laban. Ni hindi man lang si pacman pinawisan at napagod ng husto. Mas mahaba pa yata ang oras ng kanyang ehersisyo at mas pinawisan pa yata sya don kesa sa naging laban nya. At dahil sa kanyang pagkapanalo, karapat dapat lang naman talaga syang bigyan ng matinding karangalan. At isipin nyo na lang, di lang likas na Filipino ang mga humahanga sa kanya pati na rin mga banyaga na nakakakilala sa kanya.

Hmmm… kelan ko kaya makikilala ang pacman na to? Pagnagkataon, magpapa picture ako kasama sya at ipagmamalaki ko to ng todo. Oist! Si Pacman yata yon! Hahahha!

Sa katunayan, nakipag pusta pa ako sa kasama ko sa trabaho, at di nga ako nabigo, nanalo ang manok ko. Este, “pacman” ko pala, hehehehe….

Para sa ini-idolo at hinahangaan ng lahat, ang maikling artikulo na to ay inaalay ko “PARA SAYO”, bilib ako sa kakayahan mo at saludo ako. Saan man ako mapadpad ipagmamalaki kita, dahil sa puso’t isipan alam kong “FILIPINO ANG LAHI KO.”

“see how prayers works on Pacman’s lives.”

Puerto Galera

My Puerto Galera romp last May 2007.

See the beauty of Mindoro Oriental. It has an adorable nature hidden in their peaceful province. I got some photos here to view.

And....

Just a glimpse to reminisce the time I spent unwinding here.

WoRdS women UsEd

Here are the words we usually hear from women especially when they only want a simple word to reason out. This happens all the time so go check 'em out!

Woman, don't deny..... hehehe

(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare , not permission. Don't Do It!

(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').

(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying F-- YOU!

(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

Psalm 23 (For the Work Place)

The Lord is my real boss, and I shall not want.

He gives me peace, when chaos is all around me.

He gently reminds me to pray and do all things without

murmuring and complaining.

He reminds me that He is my source and not my job.

He restores my sanity everyday and guides my decisions

that I might honor Him in all that I do

Even though I face absurd amounts of e-mails,

system crashes, unrealistic deadlines, budget cutbacks,

gossiping co-workers, discriminating supervisors

and an aging body that doesn't cooperate every morning ,

I still will not stop--- for He is with me!

His presence, His peace, and His power will see me through.

He raises me up, even when they fail to promote me.

He claims me as His own, even when the company threatens to let me go.

His Faithfulness and love is better than any bonus cheque

His retirement plan beats any 401k there is!

When it's all said and done,

I'll be working for Him a whole lot longer

and for that I BLESS HIS NAME!!!!!!

Get some Humors...

I got these images from my mail. I found some sense of humor bout this so I wanna share it here....


Toilet 1: A painted floor of the bathroom as if you're in the tenth floor of a hi-rise building. Dare to enter?


Toilet 2: This is the outside view.



... and here's the inside view. It's a toilet made from a one-way glass. No one can see you from the outside, but when you sit inside, it's just like sitting in a clear glass box. Now, can you do your thing here? hehehe

At a smoker's lounge.....

So, still want some smoke?

Dreary Time

After a boring day at work last Thursday, I think of going out to Kohee for a cup of coffee and ate some delicacies. The feeling of boredom is just another kind of emotion that I don’t wanna feel. Well, I think we all don’t want to feel that way I guess. But spending some time at the coffee shop alone is also a good time for me to think. I sat there with a feeling of confusion, jaded, and gloomy. But it’s ok; anyway I sometimes need to feel these sentiments too. I too wasted my time playing the ‘psp’ there and take a walk to my house before dark.

Well, it was just one of the boring days of my life.

Zambales - sweet escapade

My Pundaquit, San Antonio Zambales escapade last Black Saturday (April 11, 2009).

The beaches of Pundaquit are sheltered by hills, great mountains, and awesome neighboring islands. And if you wanna visit the Anawangin Cove, Capones Island and Camara Island, Pundaquit shore is the closest one to reach these destinations. With the relaxed ambiance of the resort, I can tell that this is the best place for you to unwind.

Lotus Flower Tattoo - another inked

I got a new inked at my back and I find them cool. It’s a lotus flower and was placed at the lower part of my nape. Done last December 30, 2008 and was a compliment of someone... Made by the same tattoo shop (pain and leisure). Just another state of the art which I want to do. And for those who used to ask me if what’s with me why I always want to add tattoos, mind yah! It’s none of your business anyway...

A lotus flower actually rises above the water and a symbol of the sun, of creation and rebirth. This flower seems to have a unique characteristic as it closes and sinks underwater at night and rises again at dawn. It symbolizes the purity of mind and heart and represents long life, health, honor and good luck.

A deep color red in my life - Crimson

Crimson? A deep color red, right? Hmmm…But the Crimson that I have in my life is not a color, hehehe, funny but it’s true. He’s my youngest brother and I’m so proud of him. He is awfully gifted and endowed with great skills that he always makes it to the top of his class. He’s the baby of the whole clan and everyone is fond of him for he got the throne of being the youngest among the family. Hahaha! Such a lucky kid.

He was supposed to be aborted when he was still 4 months in our mama’s womb. My mama didn’t know that she was pregnant by that time and because of financial crisis in the fam, our papa decided to abort him since he will be the seventh kid. But having a fear to God, they didn’t get this kid be wasted but instead, they kept him for he is such a huge blessing for us. Our papa never goes wrong with his decision for in return he has a very talented cute little boy. I was the one who gave the name "Crimson" which means a deep color red. He is a spoiled one but he knows where to stand out. When you say No, he knows that is really a “no.”

I remember when he was really a little kid growing innocently in our disturbed world. He learned how to speak English at the age of two, and calls our parents “daddy and mommy” instead of “papa and mama.” He calls me with a different nick “lynn-lynn” instead of “ate.” He doesn’t want to play with kids because he told us that kids are naughty and he doesn’t like it. He doesn’t want to go to school because there’s going to be lots of kids but of course we did convinced him that he really needs to attend school everyday. And during his first day, he told our mama to go home for he doesn’t need someone to look after him. (nice huh! not a cry baby!) And guess what, at the age of 3 and 4, his favorite TV channel is MTV and channel [V]. Now with his wacky thing, I saw him chew the ticks where he thought it was just a bubble gum, (eeewww crimmilicious!) hahaha! He is a wide reader, a homebody boy, loves to collect different stuffs, watch tv and waste time with his computer. His dream when he grew up? To be a great scientist someday.

Since then, he used to make it to be at the top of the class, got special awards and never goes out of the honor list. And right now he made it again. He’s the Valedictorian of his class 2009! whew! I’m soOO000ooooo proud of him!

But on the other hand of his success, I was so sorry that I didn’t make it to be home to celebrate his special day. It makes me sad somehow but I know he understands me. I’m a one proud “ate” who has another best kin that I can boast to anyone. Keep it up cre! I know you’ll always be the number one, and you will always be number one for me.

I made this meme for you; just another way to say congrats and I appreciate everything in you. This could be the other gift that I can give and I hope you like it. You’ll be facing a different life now just after the time that you’ll go down that stage. I hope that first step will be best enough for you. Be strong always so you could face and handle everything that may come along your way. And most of all, don’t forget to PRAY, because in all aspects and consequences that awaits, prayer is the best armor that you can have to battle for a better and peaceful life.

Hey babe! i miss eating cereals and oats with you, hahaha!

iloveyou! mwah!

Anger of the Hands - "just paint"

The portraits of the “Anger of the Hands” are my simple art works on oil pastel. I made these out of my creativity and desire to express what goes beyond my mind, my heart and my hands. I started having a hobby like this since I was a kid and I guess I still save those sketch and design way back at home, goin’ to post it here when I retrieve them. If I can remember then, I really don’t have the guts to show my works to other people since I have the feeling of getting shrink when they can’t appreciate every single thing that I make. Duh! Not all humans know how to cherish the work of art.

But now, I’m gonna share all these stuffs out here….just an outlook of being ingenious to life.
