It's a rainy Sunday night. I got nothing to do so I made this video. =))

Poleteismo??

So everyone is talking about the now famous Mideo Cruz. Some find it Art (which does not include me) and others find it offensive. Mideo (with some people who call themselves artist) said that it is indeed an art. "This speaks about objects that we worship, how we create these gods and idols, and how we in turn are created by our gods and idols,". Cruz said. Now, if it is an ART, then why do people curse him to death? Is it really a masterpiece with a message of how hypocrisy is being served in church? Is it offensive? Yes. It is offensive and disrespectful. It is very demoralizing seeing the arrangement of the so-called art in such a disgracing manner. Art is parallel to appreciation. Such things can’t be appreciated by moral people. I am not always on the side of church specially if it has something to do with beliefs and their stand against what is good and what is practically better. Somehow, being a catholic, raised by a pure catholic family and guided by nuns as i grew up studying in a sectarian school, I find the so called artwork not an art at all. I believe, that work of knack (okay, okay..) can be rearranged into something not disrespectful but still delivers the same meaning. If he wants to impose something by disgracing 80% of the Filipino people, do so. Just be ready for the consequences of such actions.

SOULFUL RELATIONSHIP

SOULFUL RELATIONSHIP By Rev. Ronald McFadden

If you’re not married yet, share this with a friend. If you are married, share it with your spouse or other married couples and reflect on it. An African proverb states, “Before you get married, keep both eyes open, and after you marry, close one eye.” Before you get involved and make a commitment to someone, don’t let lust, desperation, immaturity, ignorance, pressure from others or a low self-esteem, make you blind to warning signs. Keep your eyes open, and don’t fool yourself that you can change someone or that what you see as faults aren’t really important. Do you compliment and compromise with each other, or do you compete, compare, and control? What do you bring to the relationship? Do you bring past relationships, past hurt, past mistrust, past pain? You can’t take someone to the altar to alter him or her. You can’t make someone love you or make someone stay. If you develop self-esteem, spiritual discernment, and “a life”, you won’t find yourself making someone else responsible for your happiness or responsible for your pain. Manipulation, control, jealousy, neediness, and selfishness are not the ingredients of a thriving, healthy, loving and lasting relationship! Seeking status, sex, wealth, and security are the wrong reasons to be in a relationship. What keeps a relationship strong? Communication, intimacy, trust, a sense of humor, sharing household tasks, some getaway time without business or children and daily exchanges (a meal, shared activity, a hug, a call, a touch, a note). Leave a nice message on the voicemail or send a nice email. Sharing common goals and interests. Growth is important. Grow together, not away from each other, giving each other space to grow without feeling insecure. Allow your mate to have outside interest. You can’t always be together. Give each other a sense of belonging and assurances of commitment. Don’t try to control one another. Learn each other’s family situation. Respect his or her parents regardless. Don’t put pressure on each other for material goods. Remember for richer or for poorer. If these qualities are missing, the relationship will erode as resentment, withdrawal, abuse, neglect, dishonesty, and pain replace the passion. The difference between ‘United’ and ‘Untied’ is where you put the i

Places

Where I wanna live

~BAGUIO~

I wanna spend my time to a place like BAGUIO. The weather is excellent. Oftentimes, it's cold even at day time. I love it. No need for air conditioning. The food is cheap and healthy cause most of the time vegetable is available, not just that, vegetables are also cheaper compared here in the Metro. Flowers and strawberries are heaven. Aside from the weather and food, I wanna live in Baguio cause the life is simple. Staying there once in a while, I always feel comfortable. I don't know what's with Baguio but it just makes me feel at home.

Where I want to explore

~BATANES~I was fascinated by the beauty of Batanes. The place is perfect for such exploration. Batanes is not known to be the top tourist destination, and maybe that is why its serenity was preserved. It is a great place to know oneself, to meditate, meet nice people and try a humble way of living. You can either walk around the urban or run freely on its nestled green highlands or dive into its crystal water. A place wherein you'll hear the untold stories of folks. Rediscover yourself and discover heaven.

Life is so beautiful, it's not meant to be described. It has to be experienced.

craving

I just can't resist this...

Yes, it's him!

I want you to meet My Man. Taaaddaaannn!!

This picture was taken during our first date. Before he went to Greenbelt, nagpicture muna. LoL. I want to you guys to meet him. He is a First Line Supervisor in the same company where I'm working at. We're in different department and site though. San Sebastian College Alumnus. A Management Major. During free time, you can see him watching tv, specifically NatGeo/History/BIO, or DVD specifically CSI New York. He is a fool for Mr. Big, The God Father, and Jack Daniels Whisky. He is pikon! as in sobra. Often times, masungit. He loves to eat (as much as i do). He eats anything but he prefers italian foods. Sbarro is his favorite. He is musically inclined, well, he plays bass and guitar (bass is his instrument during the banda days, plus pogi points). A family man, very family oriented. And his cell no. is 0932... LOL. I won't give it. He's mine. Hahaha!

We've been together for 1 year 4 months and 22 days. In that span of time, we dreamt together and argue a lot. Yes, we do. Whenever I'm afraid, confused, happy, sad, problematic, and all the crazy stuffs in the world, I turn to him.He has so many plans for me and his future. It's nice to know that I am a big part of it. He never fails to consider me in every decision and he always say and make me feel that he loves me so much. Well, i love him too, damn much. I'm getting the stregth from him. We share a lot of things and we've been through a lot. I know that we will be facing more than what we are expecting but I'm positive that we can make it as long as we're together. ILOVEYOUBABE.

That's all for now folks!

=))

Good Job, Babe! Proud of you! Love you! <3

05.08.2011 * 11.27 AM CST * RH Bill

The Controversial: The RH Bill. The bill is controversial because a lot of citizens are concern about it. Government officials, political and private sectors, religious institutions, professionals, experts, youth, everyone has their own bombast regarding the matter, criticizing, opposing, and supporting it. Personally, I am a Pro RH Bill. (I'm sorry Father, for I have sinned.) I think it's for the country. Not thinking about extinction. LOL. We won't be extinct. It's not a law not to have child but rather a law not to have a child more than what you can uphold. Though it is a fact that the government is not a charitable institution to give it's people all their wants and needs, they should be responsible to have a better economy and country for it's taxpayers to relish. The RH Bill was proposed with intention to have a better economy by reducing poverty through education and availability of family planning resources. The RH Bill is simply an easy and a free access to family planning and educating not just the youth but more on the grown-up poor people the importance of taking responsibility with their actions which in this case is having a child. I don't see anything wrong with being practical these days. I understand the point of those people who are opposing the said Bill. They want to instill on Filipinos' mind that we should become naturally responsible. Having natural control over reproduction without any contraceptives involve. In late 80's or 70's that would be possible. But in this generation, wherein most are impulsive in making decisions for pleasure, that is close to impossible. People tend to do it first then think of the consequences after. I agree to what they say that family planning services can be improved even without a law but the absence of the law makes it easier to block the program. Over the years, family planning has been an on going program but nothing has changed yet or not a big thing has changed. This RH Bill is really a big help in the uncontrollably arising population and longstanding poverty. I'm not saying that this is the only solution to have a better economy because of course the number one problem is still corruption followed by the poorly implemented constitution and truncated trifling penalties! So, pass the RH Bill.

Thank you!

I spoke with an old man over the phone. It was over 40-minute call and it's worth it even my AHT got worse. He taught me a lot of things regarding life and settling down. It was really nice talking to him. He asked me if i was a graduate, I politely said yes. He was amazed that we Filipinos can graduate from college before the age of 22. He asked my major and when i told him what my major was he said I should go there and I'll make tons of money. He compared Filipino, American, and European culture. He said that the young generation in their country is in a hurry for success. Right after college graduation, they'd think that they'll be the boss of the company. He is so amazed how hard working we Filipinos are. That we are willing to start from the bottom position till we get to the top. I think it's how they were raised. Maybe, just maybe, in their place, not everyone or not a lot of people are required or given the privilege to study college. Here in the PH, your parents will do everything just to get you in a nice University and finish a degree. Here are other things that he taught me:

• Never buy a brand new car. (because its value will depreciate 30% once you drive it the first time)
• Invest on lands. (because its value keeps on rising years after years)
• Buy lands in the country where your families are. (parents, siblings, relatives..to be with them)
• Choose to be in a peaceful place when settling down. (with trees,grass, away from the city life where you spent most of your career life)
• Learn how to save even if you are on the peak of your career. (because you never know how long you will stay there)

What a small talk! These were just some. His last statement was "If you're just nearby, I'll take you to dinner" He is like a father who's longing for a child. Hope to talk to you again, sir.
