Lately a lot of questions, doubts, fears, and mixed emotions have been plaguing me. It doesn't matter what I do because these thoughts floating in my head disturb the harmony whenever they can. I have been praying/hoping for answers but I guess God deems that it's not yet the time. I can almost hear Him say that famous line from the movie A Few Good Men, "Truth? You can't handle the truth!"

When King asked my help to un hide files from his flash disk which was hidden by a virus I was kinda embarrassed. We did check and the files were there alright. It's supposed to be easy as pie but I kinda forgot how it's done. At some point I kept on typing +h when it's supposed to be -h. Haha. I know for a fact that this works in Windows OS but as far as versions are concerned I've only

Guilty as charged! I have been gone for such a long time. Should I blame social networking or my job? Naaah... It still pleases me to write down my thoughts. I do have a notebook (or two) with my thoughts slash feelings slash questions slash remembrances hidden somewhere in the house. Notebook A is a history and Notebook B is my emo notebook hehehe. I also have a password protected diary/

Today is the wedding day of Jong and Weng. Jong is a long time friend. As far as our friendship is concerned she is the only person he introduced to us. At the time they were just friends but I could tell by his body language that he was really into her. Otherwise I wouldn't be blogging about them right?So last August they announced that they were tying the knot and seeing that I was all too

The west has won me over so much so that I even changed my layout into this wonderful cowboy thingy from FinalSense.com and to complete the mood I then added 4 western music samplers from old TV series. I do have the mp3 of Round Up -- an anthology of Western TV Themes by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Orchestra at home and since I don't have permission to upload mp3 I just went ahead to

Every body is in a frenzy what with prefinal examinations fast approaching. The teachers have test papers and the Intramurals to prepare for. The students juggling their time preparing for their exams, cheer dance practices and trying out for the different sports activities. Speaking for myself, I'm extra busy.

The theme for this year's Intramurals is Western. A lot of us are excited about it that during break time, I and some of my colleagues googled for the costumes that we are initially planning to wear. Hmmm this is gonna be fun. I plan on wearing native American costume complete with bow, arrow and dream catcher necklace. I sure hope I could find moccasins.I so love whipping up my own costumes and

When I heard that she had died my reaction was that a hole suddenly opened itself somewhere.I wore yellow to work and some snickered "Ah Cory!" and I was like, why not? There is much to be admired of a Cory Aquino. "But were you even born during the People Power?"I was born in the last years of the martial law era. Young as I was, I was already a little bit aware of what was going on around me.

I just got my 2nd learner's permit today. The first one I got when I just turned 18. So much has changed since that time. For one, LTO XI didn't use computers to store your records. Way back, you had to wake up early in the morning if you want to avoid standing on a very long line and wait for your turn then come back on a certain date for the releasing of the learner's permit.

Hurray for Mother Earth. I had wanted to stay some more at the office and fool with the Internet but it's Earth Hour. I did not want to go home as I had wanted to observe how establishments (offices, malls, etc) and the common man from my city will observe the Earth Hour.

We just recently started jogging at our city's most popular park to date, People's Park. It never occured to me that jogging would be "bloggable" -- attention Grammar Police thats a made up word. I mean I'm sure joggers are not something that the greater population would oogle at unless that's a "for a cause". I don't pay much attention to other joggers as long they stay out of my personal

Last February 19, one the couples in our circle of climber friends, Nonoy and Elai finally tied the knot after 11 years of being steadies. Yeah, I know that is a looong time to be together but you see they are a proof that if you both work on it it would work out. One of the qualities that I admire about them is the enormous respect that they have for each other. They are friends in every sense

In preparation for this year's 'Yet Another Climb' I jog. I still suffer from the unburned calories from last Christmas. Hey, I'm as lazy as can be but for the coming event, I have to physically prep myself because for the most part I'll be in the company of boys este men. No sireee, I'm not going to be the one who'll slow them down. However that is not the reason why I was suddenly inspired to

We were proceeding to a mall after troubleshooting (actually more like troubling) some PCs from an Internet cafe exactly 9 evenings ago when I happened to glance up at the overpass. Lo and behold, I saw this signage that had our jaws dropping faster than you can say signage. I had my buddy immediately take a picture using the handy dandy cellphone but the output sucked.

It's day of the dead once again. Dia de los Muertos is a Mexican (and some parts of the USA) celebration that starts from October 31 and ends in November 2. It is a very festive celebration which they mark with interesting flower arrangement, skull shaped candies, food, and lots of candles. From the pictures that I've seen, you'd think it was a town fiesta. So I guess it's not only a celebration

Keloyd's did ask me how to add links to his page and since he knows it already I'm posting a tutorial on adding a radio to your blog instead. I hope he gets this. So first off, go to a site that hosts songs. There are plenty of 'em out there, imeem, esnips, radioblogclub. Search for your song on your preferred site and look for the part of that page that says, Embed. That box contains the code

Paste the code that you've copied earlier in the Content box. Don't forget to type a title for your widget. In this example I named my radio widget as Demo Radio. After saving, you can view your blog.You will notice below that the radio is there but the length of the radio overlaps with the width of my widgets column.

Saturday is fast approaching. Studying is taking its toll. I'm losing focus. There are some work related matter that begs to be given attention and there are questions running in my head more unrelated to PDIS (the exam on Saturday).

There he was lying dead on his back arms spread out, head was tilted to a degree and his face smashed with something making him almost unrecognizable. It was a violent death.I'll call him Fred. When he was alive, Fred worked as a caretaker of sorts to my Mom's woman friend. Four months before he was killed, he was reassigned to

There she goes again... I work in the IT field. The first time I used a computer I was nine. My late dad used to bring me to his office and when I got bored he taught me how to play this computer word puzzle game Akerue. That got interested in computers but it wasn't enough to make want to pursue computer studies anyway. When I was about to graduate in high school I told my mom that I wanted to

I was given the task of overseeing the Photoshop seminar that's gonna happen two days from now but if you're almost out of financial resources it's tough. You know, you have to buy specialty papers for the certificates, a token for the speaker, printer ink, snacks for the attendees etc etc. It's a fulltime task too but I'm all fired up because it's Photoshop and because our speaker is Mr. Ted

Ok I got semi-tired watching CSI marathon so I flipped and had my long tresses shortened. It's not coincidental really. *wink* I decided to look more ordinary than how I look when I leave the house. In short naka pambahay. I stepped inside this salon that I often hear my coworkers talk about and guess what the guy/gal at the counter turned me out saying telling me that there were lotsa women in

Birthday Party and Books, October 31, 2007I thought of hitting the mall to do some shopping. You know taking advantage of the halloween sale. But a text from an officemate changed the plan somewhat. It was the birthday of his daughter. There were only two from the office who were able to make it to the party. Some of those who were invited begged off because of the rain. What? Afraid that the

This friend with me wanted me to tag along since the birthday boy is also someone I know. They're my climbing buddies actually. Now I begged off because I knew they were just going to get piss drunk and all. Not that I'd hate you for drinking

The day started bad for me. The first thing was that I overslept consequently I left the house without eating breakfast. At work during the morning break, I had an early lunch. Errr it was more of combini breakfast and lunch. I thought it was a going to be a scrumptous meal of sinigang but the sinigang meat was semi-cooked my gawd and tasted not so sinigang at all. What is it with canteen food?

I kinda fell in love with this layout design from freeskins.com and decided I wanted to give it a try. It's sorta kinda me, a sepia-toned dreamer who likes looking out the window. If I had my way though I'd change the caption from Missing You to Dreaming... I don't particularly miss anyone at the moment so I don't think it suits me in that aspect.New song is Pop Goes my Heart sung by Hugh Grant

I was so weary from the whole day classes at the Uni that when I finally arrived at home, not a minute passed and I was in dreamland already. In fact so tired I was that I almost slept the whole day away, were it not for Pacquiao-Barrera fight which I had wanted to see. We don't have cable tv and this is always one of those days that we wish we had. The Pacquiao-Barrera fight was already

Youtube sure has a lot of titles referring to Teri Hatcher's racial slur. One title went like this, "Teri Hatcher insults Filipino Doctors..." Since she was the one who delivered the line, naturally all insults and ire were hurled at her. Hmmm should it only be her?

It's not Indonesia either.I am taking part in a certain Java Training Seminar. It started yesterday and will end tomorrow. Honestly, the only Java I know and is well acquainted is the coffee. I've never programmed in Java my life although I've heard lots of pros and cons about this PL. I've seen a bunch of Java codes and they kinda looked intimidating when you've been exposed to drag and drop. If

One Saturday evening I got this urgent text message from my mom asking me if I could excuse myself from my master's class to donate blood. Her close friend's niece was at the hospital with dengue. So there I was excited at the prospect of another adventure, first time eh. At the local Red cross I found myself talking to a really handsome guy. My evil thought was "Needles or fangs?" Hehehe...

Last Saturday, K2 and I decided to buy some chow outside the workplace. While we were trying to order something from the woman behind the counter, my attention was caught by some movement from across the street. I turned my head and saw youngsters running after each other. I thought they were just the regular street kids that we'd often see loitering the streets of Malvar but my impression

It's been two weeks since my good friend K2 (see the Selpon post) called it quits with her boyfriend. The suspicion that there was someone else was true afterall. How the heck could she have known??? Two factors the first being "woman's intuition" and the second, those sudden not so subtle changes. You see when you are in a relationship, you get used to so many things: calling and texting each

In the office when some of my close lady colleagues would confide their relationship downs, I'd try to comfort them and then in jest say, "Buti na lang single ako" or if a male colleague is within earshot I'd say, "Yan talagang mga lalake na yan..." Perhaps that's the reason why Sir Chris called

Eto ang selpon ko. Mga 4 taon ko nang gamit gamit yan. Bago ko nakuha yan sa kapatid ko nagamit nya yan ng mga 2 taon. Vintage na, kasi orihinal pa keypad at casing niyan. Maraming beses na akong sinabihan na mag-upgrade na pero lagi kong naiisip na huwag na lang kasi tahimik siya lagi. Walang regular na nagtitext o tumatawag at wala rin akong tinitext lagi sa araw-araw. So ano na lang ang gamit

It has been raining nights since Monday here in the metro. Ordinarily, I don't mind the discomfort. Last night was different though. There was a 'great flood' from the near the glass doors to my favorite gate. It was the worst flood since 5 or 6 years ago. Someone with imagination decided to cross the lake via an improvised bridge made up of monobloc chairs soon enough others followed suit. This

On the surface everything looks so calm, so cool, so collected. Inside the angels and demons are staging their war. If the Transformers tagline is, Their war, our world, mine would be Their war, my head. I still have not come to terms with some things following the demise of my father. There are a lot of conflicting thoughts and things that needed to be accepted. Sometimes it's hard to accept

Sometime ago, when I attented the funeral of Dondon, it was quite an experience at stepping over incense so that the spirits at the cemetery would not follow you home.Some of us are so fond of "bring house" when we go to parties but after the funeral you are to finish off your food and not bring anything with you. Why? I don't know. No one that I have asked has been able to give me an explanation

In one of her recent interviews Ruffa has finally admitted why she stands firm in her decision to call it quits with Ylmaz. I think she doesn't have to explain to the public why, she may be a public figure but she can always choose to answer or not. In cases like these where family and children are involved I think it best to just keep mum about some things. She was right when in another

Bakit ba lagi na lang ganito tuwing eleksyon? Hindi na ba talaga magiging mapayapa at malinis ang botohan?

I only watch TV at night even when right now I'm enjoying my vacation. Makes sense cause I'm out of the house most days. Yesterday, while trying to do some Flash stuff, my attention was caught by Wowowee. Their contestants were mothers who have special kids. As they related their stories to them I coudn't help but admire them for their courage and strength. I may not have a kid of my own I know

One of the things that I miss about my family is the get togethers that we used to do when we were little. When my father went AWOL, my mom really took some time off from her busy schedule just so we could enjoy an overnight stay at our favorite beach resort.We couldn't make it last year because all our financial resources were spent on our sister who was taking up nursing. This year I told my

As I was about to leave the computer lab at 11 pm last Saturday, Favorite Professor asked, "San ka ba? Nawala ka yata sa sirkulasyon?" To which I replied with a laugh. Then he added, "Tumaba ka yata. Buntis ka ba?" Just because I was absent for a while and just because I have a very much preggy classmate doesn't mean that I'm preggy noh. So I said, "If only women can be asexual." Or something
