Unexpected

It's my birthday today but let me tell you what had happened earlier. I was able to get the present from Cora which I never expected. I don't have any idea how she got my personal information or so. I couldn't explain my expression upon checking and knowing that she did find time to surprise me. Being good to everyone always pay it's price. I'm not bragging that I'm a very good person but I just know the difference between being bad and being good at the same time. Sometimes I tend to be seriously mad but the funny thing is that I always end up smiling or even laughing at myself. My family loves me very very much which I think an epidemic that runs across my friends. I'm blissfully blessed in what I have now. I may not be the richest man in the world but I am the wealthiest person in the universe because of them.

And then I was able to answer Cora's call. It was our first time to hear each others voice coming from each side of the world. She's in Canada working as a Nurse and I'm here in the Philippines . From that call we were able to talk about a lot of things, family, love, life, thoughts and others. She is such an amazing person I hope I can meet her soon. She also told me that her son will be coming here particularly in Boracay for vacation which I guess it's Adam? I don't know just a wild guess =).

After my shift I went directly to church and headed home afterwards. Refreshing as I may say for myself "this is the kind of life I love the most ~Hakuna Matata" =P. Smiling until I reached our doorsteps and opened the door where my brothers and sisters greeted me along with my mom who kissed me in my forehead as if I'm still her young boy. What else I can expect :) from the loving people I love the most.

Minutes elapsed and then Cora called again. She was actually cooking when she called me hehe. She seems to love it as most girls do. I wish I can take a lunch or a dinner in some of her cooking specialties. I'm already imagining things again hehe but it's okay sometimes we do hope for something but who knows it will happen right? So let's not cross our fingers then, afterall there's no charge for our hopes! "Walang bayad ang mangarap!"

Til then I'll have to catch sleep as we need to be early tonight :P.

You're Such a Good Friend

October is going to be over in a few days. This is the month I hate the most hehe but oh well I'm not Hiro Nakamura who can stop time and space however I'm just happy in such a little way =) . I did received a lot of greetings already eventhough it's not yet my birthday haha. From text messages down to any other means of contact but what's better now is that I received a greeting card hehe. It may sound simple but honestly the last card I received was last February of this year lolx.

While typing this one I just received a text message from knowhere that I really don't know but what caught my attention is the name of my friend Cora stated in it which I wrote before. I'm already wondering what she's up to because all I knew is that she will call me maybe later when she got home from work. Is this another surprise? I need to call the number in the message right now as I'm totally lost on what's going on.

Will just update soon about it. Whatever it is I know I'm going to like it. Thank you so much in advance Ma'am Cora. I'll definitely wait for your call later. Godbless!

Onin VS. Ondo

Just got up from bed and the usual routine takes place ^^.

1. warming up by doing some little stretching hehe (sounds really funny ^^)
2. wash face
3. check for food
4. and still my brother is on the pc (well I always expect them to be there afterall they wake up around 4 or 5am just to check their Tales of Pirates Online game. In short "adika ahh!!" "game addicts")
5. Told them to take their breakfast so that I can check my accounts too

This is the usual routine oh my god! This is not good to be honest but I don't have regrets as they were both consistent in their studies =). Thanks to my advise "No computer for failures" hehehe!They usually showed me their exam papers and their achievements in their class. They were even representatives of their school during the Elementary Presscon held at Paknaan and Cabancalan Elementary School last September 2008. We were so proud of them and may they continue their efforts until the end. Wondering why the title is "Onin VS. Ondo" ?? It's because I caught them up playing King of Fighters in PS2. Look at their faces wahaha. We already know who's who but can you try to guess which is which?

Ondo: You cannot defeat me Onin!Onin: I will win this match!

The first picture is Ondo as he is more on the serious type and Onin is on the funny side. Some can't identify them directly as they are totally the same but we do =). Both shares the same sentiments of a gamer. They love to play the same kind of game from online games, offline games and physical games. Oh kids nowadays are extremely different! And oh before I forgot, they usually fight haha because of it but they do love each other the way they love us.

Tired, Sleepy and Dizzy

Beach is a wonderful place and basically you'll get pumped up showing your active body unwind. Play with the water, run around the sand, play under the sun and get drunk until the end of the day. That's what we did haha, I'm a little dizzy actually while typing this thought but I just checked my mail, my friendster and my tribal account as I left it even though it's the time that it really needs me but oh well forget about it. Let's talk about our Team Building =). It was successful as everyone enjoyed forethought it was raining around 2am while in the middle of the drinking and singing session. My peers were amazing as beer is no longer an alcohol for them I think. Does beer really change afterall? Will just post some pictures If I can get one that looks great hehe. The "Lechon" is no longer preferred as our stomach can no longer take it. Why? It's because it was served as our dinner on the first day until the day we go home c",).

It was really hot but definitely a worth of time. I'm already sleepy can no longer type well. Till then!

Agoy

I felt total emptiness today to be honest which shocked me a bit lol. I don't know why or how but it seems that it's isolating my mind to something I should not be thinking. Oh well loneliness sometimes can be irritating haha but that doesn't stop me to be the usual me ;).

So I better ask now, Chix or Beer? I will go with Beer hahaha.

@ the Villa

the camera is so advance as you can see it is already december ^^

The picture above was taken at Villa Teresita last Saturday October 18, 2008 to celebrate a Victory Party I guess ^^ for being the 2nd best team in the floor for the month of September.

special participation by migue the little boy among the thorns =P

Wew, it's been a pleasure working with the awesome company of Team 14 =P. Keep it up guys for being so consistent in providing quality service. Really ain't no mountain high =)

Max Payne

We just watched this movie last night, it is something that you are going to expect from an action packed game but guess what? The movie is more on the communication side. And why is all of the talking necessary? You would think a movie based on a video game would spend more time with gun battles and big explosions. Those scenes are there, but they don't come until the final 15 minutes. By then you will be ready to do anything to make the Payne stop. As a gamer there's a lot of things in common in the scenes but what catches me was the animation regarding Valkyries or called as Gods in the story. It is something worth watching as they look very cool but take note you can only see them once you take a dose of the drug called Valkyr.

Max Payne, a cop in the NYPD, returns home one day to find his wife and baby murdered at the hands of drug addicts, high on a designer drug called Valkyr. Hunted by the cops and driven by determination to avenge his family, Max Payne has been obsessed the past three years and sets out to uncover the truths behind his family's murder trying to find the person who killed his wife and son. This obsession finally begins to pay off when Payne gets involved with the sister of a female mobster who might be connected to the people who know the guy who was involved with an incident that possibly was connected to the death of Payne's family.

Pizza helps?

It's been a month already that our team is eating pizza haha. I'm not telling that we eat pizza everyday but we tend to like it as a gesture of treating our hungry stomachs while at work. If someone points out that it's a good day to eat pizza in our conference room then of course most of us dives in to have it's own piece of that stupid pizza madness lolx.

measure it if you can haha

It was just a little plan at first until such day arrived where my friends tried to check the Pizza Store alongside USP in lahug called Caldaz Pizza. They enjoyed every minute of it watching how it was made from scratch, which then turned out to be the talk of the town on the next day. The time did not end there as by the following working period we tried to order another one again while in the middle of work. The package is too gigantic that you can't even think if it's a pizza inside or not. Other team's were watching with eyes of astonishment while Ernelle brought it to the pantry haha. I bet they want to know what's in it but eventually they find it out. Our tummies were filled as you no longer need to eat lunch/dinner. Caldaz Pizza then became an instant celebrity as more orders were placed haha because of us. Their pizza is great but I never thought that there's one good thing most of us don't know which is "Protection against Cancer". Isn't it great? Simply amazing!

Eating pizza 'cuts cancer risk' Italian researchers say eating pizza could protect against cancer. Researchers claim eating pizza regularly reduced the risk of developing oesophageal cancer by 59%. The risk of developing colon cancer also fell by 26% and mouth cancer by 34%, they claimed. © BBC

"There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go."

It's been 3 months already since my last breakup with my ex. We've been together for 5years and 11months wew. It really didn't felt good that time as we're almost reaching 6years but oh well sometimes we can't expect things to happen in a wrong way but still we remained friends after and she even called me her bestfriend. We even fancied each other if we are going to have our own future boyfriends and girlfriends that I will introduce mine to her and so as hers to me. She even told me that she will support me on where I am going to be happy. I just nod and told her the same. She's a wonderful gal to be honest but maybe were just not really meant for each other. We no longer have communication until now but I'm hoping that she's fine. I know breakups really hurts much in this world but this is life. We have to move one, "time is not just pure gold at all but it also heals wounds and helps in moving on". We must accept the fact that life goes on and so as we. Facing those feelings of rejection and anger by acknowledging them, dealing with them, and then achieving closure. The most important thing is to get in touch with reality and walks to the road of recovery and make it a lot less bumpy.


Here's something I would like to share:

"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are.

Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.
- Captain Corelli's Mandolin. "Love is the beauty of the soul."

Secondhand Serenade

When I first heard the song from a friend of my sister via her friendster account I tend to like the words used and eventually glide with the song until its end. I said to myself "wow" this is a very convincing song that everyone can relate. I thought it was a band but it's not. Secondhand Serenade is a project name for a solo artist, singer/songwriter John Vesely. The song was "Fall for you" which I think an awesome one which made me crave for more songs from the artist. Let's then cut the crap :), here's the song I'm talking about with the lyrics.

My Blade Knight

I was checking my computer today searching for pictures I can keep since I will be formatting my computer tomorrow. I have ran across some old pictures from previous jobs, some old company outings but what caught my attention is the signature I've created for my Blade Knight in MU Philippines way way back in Wigle Days. It reached Titan too but is no longer present in the new server which is "Tarh" I guess? I'm not pretty sure if I got the correct spelling but it sounds that way. He's at Level 398 grrrr coz I didn't find time to maxxed him out lol. A pure Str-Vit type of knight ;).

I missed the online community, it's been a long time when I was still hooked up on that game. I've learned a lot there. I've met lots of friends and most of them turned out to be people that you can really keep and trust. I miss you all guys and gals and will definitely check again my account if I'm no longer busy. Hans (my best pal =p) keeps on asking me to buy him a load if I will buy points for my account haha and I always tell him that I will buy him one but still not a dream come true. He's actually my GM short for GuildMaster :). You can ask anything from him hehe to be honest. But anyways I will try to check my character if it's still there one of these days. I just missed that "adikmode" part =P

I love it here

Yesterday I went to work and rode on a jeepney and then two guys walked in and seated both in front of me. They started talking about their experiences as the ride is slowly taking it's journey. They made me smile actually, I'm just glad that I'm a Cebuano as I tend to have our hard accent to be an enjoyment sometimes ;). It was fun and I got some of their words still carved in my mind until now hehe.

Person1: Bai, gimingaw naman ko uli Mindanao
Person2: Mao ba bai?
Person1: Yes, kay gimingaw ko ligo dagat
Person2: Nindot na dah
Person1: Prehas sa "bewats" ba adto sa "bets"

It made my day eventhough I came late at work =P

The new Gundam Series

I'm following this new Gundam Series but Sunrise provided 25 episodes for season 1 and for season 2 will be provided this month. I still don't know the exact date but I can no longer wait =P.

The story revolves around a 16 year old boy Setsuna F. Seiei who is one of the four Gundam Meisters. By the year 2307 the world has almost dried up in it’s resources for energy which obliged them to use a man made large scale solar Power systems. Three of them were created and were controlled by the three powerful sections of the earth. One centers on the United States and is called the World Economic Union, aka. Union. The second is the Human Reform League, comprising of China, Russia, and India. The third and final one is Europe’s AEU. The defense of the orbital elevators is difficult due to their size, and for the sake of their dignity and influence, the three armies continue to play a grand zero-sum game. Even in the 24th century, mankind hasn’t united to one yet, and it is here that Celestial Being shows up which can be the fourth section who will try to stop the war. To get rid of strife, they have developed operations that transcend race, nationality, and religion. They are triggering a revolution in the world.

I think this one is much better compared to SEED Destiny. Hope so!

Heroes

I rarely watch television shows instead you will find me playing an online game in our PC or dueling with my brothers on DBZ Budokai in PS2. It kinda feels boring sometimes doing the same routine over and over lol until one day I tried to watch the Heroes TV Series that I borrowed from Mitch(my teammate). I’m not actually a big fan of TV series but Heroes gives me an interesting view on TV series already.

People with extraordinary abilities are shown on how difficult for them to live and adapt in our society. It's about how to be different which is very common to some of us. There are already billions of people in the world but sometimes you can find unique ones like them but I can’t say for sure for now. We maybe different in all things but we are all just the same ;)
