Looking back at 2008
2008 wasn't that bad .... there were good things that happened but also there were some down times. Wrong decisions were made, but yet we still are able to make it till today.
What did I learn from 2008? Being thankful ... thankful for everything I have, I learned to treasure life more and what I have. I learned to be humble and be simple. Thankful for the things and people around me. Counting my blessings is better than looking for things that I don't have.
With all that happened in 2008 I hope I grasp all the learning and live by it and hopefully I use them as I go through 2009.
I wish 2009 be better for all of us.... all of mankind...
Happy New Year....

Reginalde - Flores Nuptial
Last December 12, 2008 my cousin Glenn got married, since Kuya Glenn was the eldest among all of our cousins (well at least for the Reginalde side), it was a memorable event to the whole Reginalde Family. I was part of the entourage, as one of the grooms men, it was nice, Church was nice, as well as the reception. Here are some pics taken on that day, I do apologize some are blurred I just got them through my cousin's friendster accounts hehehehe.

Current Events : Thinking Out Loud
Manny Pacquiao vs De La Hoya :
- its good to have someone that really unites the country, well at least for a day. I'm really not into boxing, I rather pay much in watching Brgy Ginebra's game than Manny Pacquiao, but just what I said he is someone who binds the Filipinos united, so I think it's still good to have a Manny Pacquiao. My comment on the match? hmm, is De La Hoya a boxer? hahahaha. The match seemed to be pre-agreed upon. Boxing politics.
Charter Change (Cha-cha) :
- back in college I had a fair share of reading the present Philippine constitution, admittedly there are some parts of the constitution that I personally think needs revision and further checking but is charter change a way to correct all this? Nah I don't think so... even if we change the Philippine constitution and our form of government but we still keep those corrupt and greedy government officials, the Philippines will stay the same........ or probably FAIL more. Maybe we can start with those who are proven corrupt, erase them and their bloodline within politics. That's where I think we should start.
Marky Cielo's death :
- He's too young, just like Rico Yan, Marky died at the peak of his career, he could have done much. Hope he finds peace.
Oil prices slip below $45 per barrel
- this is good news, hope it continues to go down and extends to the next year. Gas price has been a pain in the ass for the past months, it went up so high that I had to decide not to bring my car to work. Good thing it's now going down.

Lord I Offer You My Life
I attended Kuya Glenn's and Ate Acel's wedding just a while ago, and a song during the mass made me reflect and somehow made me realize things. Analyzing the thought of the song made me relaxed, it was so instant and it felt so great. Well it could have been with the singer.... I've listened to the song before, it's really a good song, not only that it has a great lyrics but it has a great tune as well. Anyways, I'll be adding the song lyrics with this post, as for Kuya Glenn's wedding I'll just post the pics soon.
Lord I offer you my life - Hillsong
(Verse 1)
All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before you, oh Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaims
The joy and the pain, I'm making them yours
(Verse 2)
Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my heart, alll of my praise
My heart and my hands are lifted to you
(Chorus)
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
(Bridge)
What can we give
That you have not given?
And what do we have
That is not already yours?
All we possess
Are these lives we're living
That's what we give to you, Lord
Lord I offer you my life - Hillsong
(Verse 1)
All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before you, oh Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaims
The joy and the pain, I'm making them yours
(Verse 2)
Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my heart, alll of my praise
My heart and my hands are lifted to you
(Chorus)
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
(Bridge)
What can we give
That you have not given?
And what do we have
That is not already yours?
All we possess
Are these lives we're living
That's what we give to you, Lord

Keeping Steady
For some unknown reason I got up super early today than usual, its only 12:40pm here in Manila and I'm already up, yes its PM..... I should be nocturnal this week, and for a nocturnal person 12 noon is not good.
Haven't been blogging much recently, I was only able to post 3 articles for November. Why? I'm really not sure, maybe it's my way of trying to be steady, too much rantings and thinking out loud might cause stress to me and to my readers. It would be better that I keep my positive attitude, things will be better .... with God's help of course. Honestly, even though there are still problems around, I think we're in good shape, there's this different positive attitude from my folks and my brothers now. Hope 2009 will be better than this year.
As for work.... hmmm that's another story. It's just that recent that we were trying to adjust with some changes with the team, slowly but surely we're getting there, struggled a bit but we did it, we all hoped that it would be the last ... well at least for the year, but we were wrong. It's just ironic that whenever an episode ends, it always gives some preview of the next episode. Same thing happens in real life. Some changes are yet to come in 2009..... Hope we all could handle it. It's sad but I respect her decision.
Well, I need to get back to never land ..... or else expect downtimes during my shift hahahaha.

Season 3 : Episode 1
Episode one : Life goes on...
Just between the end of October and the start of November, ITHD started its new season. Yes, now we're on season 3, a lot of changes taking place, some people ended their contracts while some just signed up for this new season.
At this point, I'm really not sure how the story would go from here... but nevertheless, I feel optimistic about it. Exciting isn't it? All we can do is take advantage of things that we have right now and try put those we've lost at the back of our minds. Putting a smile each day is not that hard, considering that there are sad moments, this team really knows how to put on a positive attitude.
Hope things go well in the next few episodes.....

Christeta
I wasn't able to sleep that much last night....
When I got home around past 12 midnight, my youngest brother, Jr, was still up preparing for his exams today. As I was eating my late dinner, he informed me that he never saw Tetay when he arrived up to that very time that we were talking.
As a routine, I usually feed the dogs with left overs alternately with their dog food. With my mid shift schedule, our dogs usually eats twice in a night. First is after the usual family dinner, then the second is after my late dinner since I usually arrive at home around 10:30pm the latest.
As I was feeding the other dogs last night, I kept on calling my Artetay's name... but to my surprise.... she never came. At that point I was thinking where she could have gone and was hoping that she's ok.
Just the other week there's this bald, no good and non sense old man from our neighborhood that called our attention claiming that Tetay ran after him when he was on his way home. The bald man was angry and threatened us that he'll do something if it happens again. Having that in mind, I was disturbed. We don't usually allow our dogs to go out of the house, considering that our village has this roaming team that collects stray dogs and detains them near the clubhouse.
It's just that Tetay is a very clever and hard headed dog. She find ways of going out, even if it means that she'll be destroying part of our steel gate. Also there are times that she takes the opportunity when somebody goes out the small gate.
I stayed up late, I was trying to wait for Tetay's knock on the gate, which she usually does when she breaks free, no luck. This morning, my mom got up early checked on the dogs and still Tetay wasn't there. My mom said to check on the club house before I go to work. But being worried with Tetay's condition I asked mom if we could pass by the clubhouse on our way out. So there we went. Before I could even turn off the engine, my mom and I heard a bark from somewhere, which we both assumed that it was Tetay. But the clubhouse was still closed, and we can't see where they have detained the dogs. So mom and I decided to look around, luckily we found the dog cage at the back part of the clubhouse. Yes !!! Tetay's there along with some other dogs, wagging her tail and crying out loud to bail her. Unfortunately the clubhouse is till close, so we asked around how we could bail Tetay out. A nearby resident informed us that the cage keys are with the security guard. So there we went, since mom needs to go to school, I informed the security guard that I'll be back to claim Tetay. So after I brought mom to the nearest public transportation loading, I went back to the guard house and asked what would be the procedure in claiming my dog back. He asked me to come back around 8am, and I need to pay a penalty of 100 since Tetay was detained for a day. So I said ok, just to get my dog back.
So I went back home, ate some breakfast, went online to email something for mom as I was waiting for 8am. But around 7:57am I heard a continuous banging on our steel gate, I thought it was Kenjie trying to get out, but now it was coming from the outside and it seems that who ever is banging it was in a hurry.
So I looked out ..... it was Tetay .... As I was opening the gate, I looked around to check if the security guard is there, but it was just Tetay on the street. I was asking her, how the hell did you get out... obviously she can't answer back. Till now, I'm still thinking how this clever dog could have gotten out that cage. Never the less I'm happy she's back and safe.
Christeta is not an imported dog or anything like that, but our family already loved her for what she is. She's a Christmas gift from my Tita's family 2 years ago. She's stubborn and never listens at times but that is what makes her unique to all.

Going through Life's Stresses.
Around 9:58pm October 29 my Bedan brother Jericho called. He was somewhere noisy, I think I missed half of what he was saying, the thing that I understood was that he was asking me how I was doing. He said something that it seems that I'm in a lot of stress right now and it seems that I have lots of things in mind.... Hmmm.... Am I ? hahahah. Well I did answer back, all I said was that I'm ok,and Yes a bit stressed but "tama lang" (just enough). I then said that I was sorry for not being with him and Denmar last week, I was quite busy with some things to help Mom out.
So am I stressed? Am I not ok? Is Jericho right? I'm not sure how my bro was able to formulate that, but I guess he's right. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you'll probably know that from my previous posts, but with regard to my bro, I don't know... I'm not even sure if he even knows that I have this blog. Well never the less, to keep the story short here are the answers....
Are you ok ? Yes, if ok means I still look forward to live each day and try to make it better than the previous day. And yes if ok means that I still call on the Lord to help me with my daily activities and at the end be thankful for what I have and what had happened.
Are you stressed? Yes..... there are changes in my life now that makes me uncomfortable. New things that I'm not sure how to deal with ... Don't get me wrong, this is not just within me, but also with the people around me, people whom I care for. I feel that I must do something .........
Some people say this is normal.... hmm so ok it's normal but does it have to be always? and should it be a part of a routine? I hope not.
Well anyways, I try to be ok..... I try to be optimistic.... I pray to God ........
"There's a rainbow after the rain"

I Don't Want to Live on the Moon by Ernie
Well, I'd like to visit the moon
On a rocket ship high in the air
Yes, I'd like to visit the moon
But I don't think I'd like to live there
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the places and people I love
So although I might like it for one afternoon
I don't want to live on the moon
I'd like to travel under the sea
I could meet all the fish everywhere
Yes, I'd travel under the sea
But I don't think I'd like to live there
I might stay for a day there if I had my wish
But there's not much to do when your friends are all fish
And an oyster and clam aren't real family
So I don't want to live in the sea
I'd like to visit the jungle, hear the lions roar
Go back in time and meet a dinosaur
There's so many strange places I'd like to be
But none of them permanently
So if I should visit the moon
Well, I'll dance on a moonbeam and then
I will make a wish on a star
And I'll wish I was home once again
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the places and people I love
So although I may go I'll be coming home soon
'Cause I don't want to live on the moon
No, I don't want to live on the moon

Blogging must go on.
I've been preventing my self from blogging these past few days, I really don't want to use my blog site as a venue to air out my disappointment and anger over some things or even for someone. Events in the office are somewhat stressful and uncertain, It has been one hell of a season ender. I know this thing shall pass, and just what I've said in my messenger nick, "I'll be ok"
Well, I'm just happy now that the week already ended, and it ended in a positive note. I spend my Friday night with my friends in QM. We ate at "Banchetto" (a food tiangge at Emerald Ave.) and headed for Medical city to visit Chammy who just recently gave birth to "Wok-wok". We had a lot of stories to catch up with.... One night was not enough for everything, that's why we're planning to have another out of town trip very soon.
I was able to reach home around 6am, I tried to have a power nap for I was expecting a call from my friends in IT for our breakfast get together. I got the call around 8am, they we're on their way. So I rushed to the shower and got dressed. We had a very enticing breakfast in a bulaluhan here in Fairview. After the breakfast, we decided to further enjoy the day by doing some other bonding activities, we were suppose to go to the La Mesa Eco park, but traffic here in Fairview was very disastrous this morning. So we decided to just visit a nearby restaurant with a videoke system. It was so fun, though it was a bit weird to have fun and have some alcohol that early. Never the less, I enjoyed it, and I think everybody did. Hope we'll be able to do it again soon.Just a while ago my best friend dropped by. His office is near my place. It has been a while since I last saw him, though we communicate via text and call, its good to see him again. We had a good talk and some laughs but since it's getting late, he had to go home.
Well I guess that would be it for now, I'm still going to hear mass tomorrow and pray that the coming week will be better for all of us.Have a great and blessed Sunday to all.

SunRise 10/16
It's been a week since I last posted something here, it just seemed that I was not in the mood to blog even though there's so much thought in my mind that I'd like to share. I was roughly out of shape last week, I've been kinda grumpy and lazy hahahaha, well enough of that!! Hey, its a brand new day!!! I must start this day positively, I need to smile, I need to be optimistic and believe that today will be a better day.
I woke up early today because I had the chance to sleep early last night as simple as that hahahaha. I got up around 5AM, sat in front of my computer and started checking some news sites. My computer is directly located next to a window, a window that directly gives me a view of the beautiful sunrise.Today is one of those rare days that I got to watch a beautiful sunrise. As I was experiencing this God given grace, I hoped and wished for a better day. A stress free and exciting day for all of mankind.
This day seemed to be truly promising, nothing can beat this experience, a beautiful sunrise, some relaxing mellow music playing in the background and the fragrance of a very appetizing breakfast.
Good Morning PILIPINAS

Walk With Good
FACE TO FACE WITH DARKNESS I WILL HEAD FOR THE LIGHT
TRAVEL DOWN THIS LONELY ROAD THROUGH THE DARK OF NIGHT
I WILL NOT WALK HURRIEDLY NOR WILL I WANDER AIMLESSLY
I WILL KEEP IN MIND WHERE IT IS I WANT IT TO BE
(Chorus)
[I WILL SIDE WITH GOOD / I WILL WALK WITH GOOD]
I BELIEVE IN GOOD
[I WILL / AND I] WALK WITH GOOD AND I WILL BE FREE
I WILL SIDE WITH GOOD
I BELIEVE IN GOOD
SAY I WALK WITH GOOD AND I WILL BE
I WILL BE [FREE / THERE]
EVEN LESS TEMPTATION DRIVE YOU REALLY DOWN
I WILL BE PATIENT, I WILL STAND MY GROUND
I WILL NOT LET EVIL WIN, PRAY THAT ALL MY FOES BEGIN
TO UNDERSTAND, TO COMPREHEND, TO SEE INSIDE WITH GOOD
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
I WILL BE GUARDED BY WHAT I KNOW IS RIGHT
AND I WILL SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY
FAITH AND HOPE, TRUTH AND LOVE I KNOW
ALL GOOD WILL FIND A WAY
THROUGH THIS TRIBULATION I WILL DO WHAT I SHOULD
NO FEAR NO HESITATION I WILL WALK WITH GOOD
DOWN THIS NARROW PATH I GO
I WILL NEVER BE ALONE
IN MY HEART I KNOW THERE ARE MILLIONS LIKE ME
(Repeat Chorus)

From the first time I've gone online to the point that I've been a regular Internet surfer, I have been a consistent user of the Internet Explorer. I really wouldn't like to praise this software much for I too had some problems with it before. It just happened that one good thing about this browser is that it comes bundled with Windows, no doubt, its far more accessible than other browsers that you still need to download and install. My brother had downloaded Mozilla FireFox before, but I seldom use it. Some friends suggested that I use Mozilla instead of the IE, but I never listened. IE has been working fairly for me, aside from the times that it became so vulnerable to spy wares.
But just recent, when I was watching "Convergence" on Net 25, they featured a new browser created by Google. It is called the "Chrome". Chrome was described to be a simple and modernized browser, so after the show I decided to download it.Now I have 3 browsers on my machine, I have the IE, the FireFox and the Chrome.
Well to compare all three, it seems that the FireFox is my new favorite. It's faster and I haven't gotten any problem with it. As for the new Google Chrome, I dunno, I really can't say much still since it still a beta version, though I encountered some problems a while ago with Flash, I have Flash installed but it seems that the browser is not detecting it. Hmmm maybe it needs restarting. Never the less, I think I'm going to use Mozilla for a while.

Week Review
This week was smooth and nice, not until the last part. Well considering that there's an extra rest day because of a national holiday, things rather became complicated as we were ending the week.
Monday - Everything seemed to be ok, Budget running a bit low, but still manageable. A bit disappointed, salary wasn't credited that day. We've all been hoping, hahahaha it could have been a better Monday.
Tuesday - Now budget is almost dried up hahaha. Salary was credited earlier during the day. Yahooooo. Also the thought of going to an extra rest day the next day is all so overwhelming.
Wednesday - Free day !!! well even though I'm on a rest day, I decided to drop by the office to finish some important reports. OT HOLIDAY !!! hmmm an extra income this 15th payroll. The sad part here is that I had a little bit of something with Jesley. Its nothing personal, it just happened that I guess I was on a tight situation that time. Pressured by the "test" thing. Oh also when I was in the office, HR called and informed me regarding my interview with IA.
Thursday - Back to the usual day, but hey when Thursday comes, you'll always feel that another weekend is coming real soon. The team also had some training that day. Its also my interview day with IA, did I pass??? Hmmm never mind. Just when I thought that my day would end just like the other days, I was wrong. Before I got out the office I got a call from my mom, my aunt was rushed into the hospital cause she was having some asthma attack. And now, the hospital that she was currently confined could no longer support her, since it was a small hospital. So I need to go there and fetch them so we could transfer hospitals. That didn't end there. In the new hospital, my aunt needs to be subjected to different test, since the doctor did not recognize or was having second thoughts with the results of the small hospital's tests. And so she did.... during that time I haven't eaten anything for dinner, I told my mom that I need to eat. The only thing near was a set of vending machine. Good thing I have lots of coins and 20 peso bills. So I got myself and mom a cup of coffee and hot Milo then some crackers and some cup cakes. We waited at around 4AM I think for the result. Since my aunt's condition improved the doctor decided to send us home, but if the same thing happens within the day, she needs to come back for confinement. Before we went home, we drove by Mercury drugs for some meds and nebules for the nebulizer. I was able to sleep around 5:30AM.
Friday - Since I slept late and I was tired, I decided to move my schedule at a later shift, I advised my manager and my supervisor about it. With a longer sleep, I was able to recover and arrived in the office at around 2PM. Finished some work, reserved the videoke room for some relaxation after the meeting. Went home around 11:22pm and now, I'm finishing this blog post so I could sleep.
Well that was my whole week, hope my aunt's condition gets better soon. My Aunt's family is staying with us for the weekend, actually I have my cousin sleeping near me, every time he snores it causes me to stop typing, hahahah, well never the less later on I'll be joining him, possible a jamming session coming up. Hahahaha.
Well I guess that's it for today, I'm starting to feel fatigue coming in, for the first time, I could say that I'm sleepy. hahahahha.
To Jesley : I'm really sorry with what happened, I know you hated me for that. It was a very honest reaction my friend. I got disappointed, I vent out, I never thought that people will talk about that reaction. I just became true to what I felt, but it was I guess with the situation, pressured by the thought that I am to be tested and all. I never told everyone with what happened, it was just Zai and Sol who were near me and heard my sentiments. I've learned from this experience and I promise that it would never happen again. Thanks for being a friend.

Another Holiday : Edi'l Fitr
Finally another national holiday !!! Today is the last day of Ramadan (Muslim Religious Tradition),which they call it Edi'l Fitr. That's why to all my Muslim countrymen, happy holiday to you guys.
Guess what!finally I was able to sleep well last night,considering the fact that I was able to sleep early. I just wish it continues. Even though I'm on a rest day today,I still got up early, well I think it's something usual for someone who slept early, Hmmm let me correct that,not that early but earlier than usual, you know what I mean. I'll try to drop by the office a bit later at least for a 4 hour OT just to finish some reports. I don't usually do this, it just happened that my manager asked me to surrender the laptop that I was using for VPN access. BUT and IF hahaha it rains hard later, I really wouldn't force myself to go to work. We'll see later.
Oh btw, we also have this typhoon named "Pablo" coming in today. Metro Manila is under signal number 2. I just hope it wouldn't rain that much and the signal number is another PAGASA mis-calculation. Hahahaha.
Anyways, I need to eat breakfast now, till my next post people.

Once Again
Whenever I hear this song, it reminds me of some things way back in college...
you've always been there for me
and i never cared enough
you've always love me prefectly
and i never shared some
and you never said a thing
you gave it all just for me
i treated you so selfishly
and you rest here by my side
instead you give so selflessly
and i didnt have to try
to show you ive missed you so much
how can i be so insensative
once again
i come to you
this time i'll never make it slip away
hold my hand and together we will wait
for the day that we will be as one
you know i prayed a thousand times
and you never did the same
you made me see that i was blind
you wiped those tears away
you showed me your true love
and now im thinking how i can repay
once again
i come to you
this time..i'll never make it slip away
hold my hand and together we will wait
for the day when we will be as one
i know that there were times when you almost gave up
and i couldn't blame you if you did just that
but still you chose to stay and suffer all the pain
you held on..gave me hope..believed that i could change
i'm coming to you...
once again
i come to you
this time..i'll never make it slip away
hold my hand and together we will wait
for the day when we will be [gonna wait for the day] as one
[baby i come back to you once again]
baby i come to you..

A day in Munti
It's now 2:42AM here in Manila, I'm currently waiting for a video file to be downloaded completely.... hey it's not a porn movie ok? hahaha. My brother will be using this video for his class tomorrow, so I really need to finish this. I'm really not in the mood to blog today, but hey I must do something while waiting right? Sunday was quite exhausting, we had to start the day early and travel around 50KMs down south. Good thing for my mom and brothers they just sat while I drive. Well its not all that bad, weather was good, streets were cleared of heavy traffic, what more can I ask right?
Today we had the chance to visit our relatives in Muntinlupa. Hmm for some reason that didn't sound right..... we'll just to be clear, they're not inmates, and its not the new Bilibid prison that we went to. c",) Our relatives lives in Lake View homes just next to Munisipyo ng Muntinlupa. It's Tito Peps' birthday today, and Tita Glo's birthday the other day that's why we celebrated a bit. There was lots of stories and jokes to catch up with, imagine the last time that we went there was last January 1st, took us long time to get back. There were no videoke nor billiards matches today because I was too busy playing and setting up their new laptop. I thought Tito Peps' some sites wherein he could download some themes and games for their mobile phones. And installed the SE PC suite so he could copy some applications and music to his phone. They now also have Internet access there, I was able to visit friendster a bit, but connection keeps on timing out, and from the way I experienced their service, I really wouldn't recommend it.
God, this download is taking forever, What I'm downloading is an educational film that my brother will be using for his history class. It's a 16 part video that I got from Youtube. I was able to download all 15 videos without any problem. I'm cutting this post here, I'm getting irate with this damn video..... I'll probably sleep why this darn thing is still downloading.

Singing Bee
Every time that life stresses me, it's always music that calms and refreshes me. From around 5 or 6 years old, I've already shown my interest with music or singing. When I was still young my mom bought this 4 piece multiplex cassette set, it contains nursery rhymes and other children songs. Among the 4 tapes, it was tape number 4 which was my favorite. It contained slow songs, such as "Greatest Love of All", "Somewhere out there", "Where is love" and so on. On occasions that I'm with my cousins we usually sing songs of the group Smokey Mountain.
I think it was in grade 3 when we were asked to sing individually in front of class, I was a bit shy that time, but yet I'm confident with what I'll be singing. During that time it was "Closer you and I" by Gino Padilla, that was on top of the charts. It was so popular that I even ask mom and dad to buy the album. Even though it was the most famous song that time, I opted to sing a different song. Though it was still with the same album, I sang "Gusto Kita" instead.
The class was noisy at first, since I was in an all boys school, teasing was something usual, but to my surprise when I started the first stanza, I guess on the second line, everybody stopped talking and was listening to me. This frightened me..... I was hoping that my classmates continue with what they're doing and not mind me singing. Never the less, the show must go on... hahahah. My teacher asked me to finish the song... and so I did....
At the end of the song, my teacher said something about my singing, but I was not able to really hear it, cause I was trying to rush back to my seat. During the time that I got to my seat the class was clapping.... and my seat mate said, "galing mo" ..... weh hahahhaha.
Well the solo singing in class was like an classroom elimination for a much bigger event. After everyone had sung in front, the teacher selected people to bring in "minus ones" for another round of elimination. I was asked to bring one....
With this, I told my dad, I need to find a song, with a minus one that I can sing.... It was Nonoy Zuniga's album that I asked my dad to buy. It was "I will be there for you" that I wanted to sing. I practiced, and I brough the tape in class.... when the teacher was asking the people that she selected to sing in front with the minus one, no one stood up, my classmates didn't bring any minus one and said that they're not prepared. Since I'm really shy during that time, I just hid my tape back in my bag and claimed that I was not also prepared..... Sad? nah, though that big "what if" still keeps on haunting me, my dad and mom was excited for me that time, but I was so shy to show my musical powers hahahaha.
After that you know what? I shifted career hahahaha, well I guess that's another post.... It's the time where "dancing" entered my life.
Here's a copy of the Lyrics of Nonoy's song and a sound clip from Imeem.com
I Will Be There For YouArtist: Nonoy Zuniga
I know it's hard to open your heart again
You've been through too much hurt, to many lies
So many times you've seen a love you thought would last
Then Suddenly you'd see it swiftly die
I know it's hard for you to learn to trust in me
Your heart is too afraid to fall again
You can't believe me when I tell you how I feel
'Coz you're thinking of how soon my love will end
CHORUS:
But if you ever change your mind
Remember these words I'll say
I have never loved this way before
And in love I'm gonna stay
REFRAIN:
I will be there for you
I will be there for you
('coz) If there's one thing in a world of lies
That you can't beleive will hold true
Just take a look over your shoulder
And i will be there for you
I know it's hard 'coz I've been through the same before
I trusted once too much, I've felt the pain
But since you came into my life, I vowed to myself
I'll never let a love like this leave me again
(Repeat Chorus 1 & Refrain)
(Repeat Refrain except 1st two lines)

SPOON - Thank you
I've been a bit under the weather for the past few days, it was also the reason why I decided to take a vacation leave last Friday. Well considering also the "weather" isn't really that great either. Yesterday I stayed in bed most of the day, sleeping, watching TV and trying to catch my breath, I had asthma and a clogged nose combo meal. Hahahahaha.
Since I was on a TV marathon, I ran across this TV show, its a cooking slash talk show called "SPOON" and it is hosted by Janice de Belen in Net 25. Well to be honest I've seen this show several times before, specially during times that I cannot sleep at night. I like the show, though I'm really not into cooking but I guess it's the talk show part that I'm fascinated on.
I'm not a Janice de Belen fan, I really didn't like her hosting style in "SIS" for the reason that it's really evident that they are reading some idiot board and the fact that they (Janice, Gelli and Carmina) are always shouting. I don't know maybe they think shouting makes their scripts fascinating.... I think not.
Hosting "Spoon" is a different thing.... yesterday her guest was Clair Dela Fuente. Aside from the fact that I like the disk that they cooked, they posted an interesting conversation. Nothing deep, it was more on how Claire spends her time and what she was at home, as a Mom and as a business woman. Little did I know that Claire's husband already passed away. As she was telling the story, I was amazed with her words saying that even though she had lost her husband there are still a lot of things to be thankful of... reasons to be happy and reasons for continuing life.
Wow, I was amazed with her words. To be honest right now I really have lots of questions going on my mind .... with things that has been happening with us. Things that makes me question God's will and plans for us. A lot of "whys" .... but with what I've heard with Claire and Janice.... I've realized some things that I never though of before. Things that I could have taken for granted. Even though we're experiencing a non comfortable situation, we're still blessed in someways.
I tried reflecting and counting the things I have right now.... I can say I'm still blessed even though challenged. To start my list of blessings, I'm still alive!! after being in an ICU last year, I'm still ok and I'm still strong.Second is that even though my Dad is working abroad, were complete. There's open communication and our relationship is at its best. We're still eating 3 times a day,despite the increase in prices, there are even times when we eat more than 3 times. The luxury of driving my own car to work, despite the increase in oil prices, having the luxury of having a cable TV, DVD and an unlimited DSL Internet access for entertainment and relaxation. So many things to be thankful. Spoon - Thank you.....

Kanlungan - Noel Cabangon
It's a not so old song that I like. Just recently heard it through the television.
Kanlungan
Chorus:
Pana-panahon ang pagkakataon
Maibabalik ba ang kahapon?
Natatandaan mo pa ba
Nang tayong dal’wa ang unang nagkita?
Panahon ng kamusmusan
Sa piling ng mga bulaklak at halaman
Doon tayong nagsimulang
Mangarap at tumula
Natatandaan mo pa ba
Inukit kong puso sa punong mangga
At ang inalay kong gumamela
Magkahawak-kamay sa dalampasigan
Malayang tulad ng mga ibon
Ang gunita ng ating kahapon
Refrain 1:
Ang mga puno’t halaman
Ay kabiyak ng ating gunita
Sa paglipas ng panahon
Bakit kailangan ding lumisan?
[Repeat Chorus]
Ngayon ikaw ay nagbalik
At tulad ko rin ang iyong pananabik
Makita ang dating kanlungan
Tahanan ng ating tula at pangarap
Ngayon ay naglaho na
Saan hahanapin pa?
Refrain 2:
Lumilipas ang panahon
Kabiyak ng ating gunita
Ang mga puno’t halaman
Bakit kailangang lumisan?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Refrain 2]

Not so nice and not so well
The weather these past few days was not pleasing at all. Rain was so hard that driving to work was a challenge. Now I'm starting to feel some fever coming in. I had some chills last night, and tonight I think it's back. I'm also having some sudden mild asthma attacks, sigh....
I hope I'll be ok later today so I could report for work.

Friendster
After adding almost around 500+ of my friends and years of compiling them, last May I decided to delete my friendster account, sigh... Yeah, you're right, what am I thinking of? I dunno... I just suddenly grew tired of that account. At first I felt a little dismayed with what I did but I think its just right.
For the longest time since I deleted the account, it never really occurred to me to open another account, not even the slightest thought of it ... but never the less, walahhh, I have a new account hahahaha. Just what I've said with my previous post, it's not me who created it, it was my best friend. Actually, the new account was for some test that he wants to do, but since it's already there, why not update it again hahahaha.
As I was adding my friends just this morning, I felt like that I'm in a time warp of some sort. Not only that I was adding friends from the past, I was also listening to music from the 80's. Songs that my friends and I grew up to.... It's so nice to think of people you've grew with. Some actually are married already, some of them are still in touch while some .... I think were sucked into a vortex or a black whole because just after graduation, their location is suddenly un-identified and they just suddenly disappeared from the face of Earth.
Oh here's a funny thing, just after I went online this morning, I went to my room and watched TV, unconsciously I fell a sleep. I had a dream.... guess what, my dream was so populated with people..... people from grade school, high school and even college days..... imagine it was so crowded hahaha. The setting was like a team building or a reunion of some sort.... I was in it, as well as my friends from my past mingling and chatting about things that happened before and after graduation. And when I woke up, I was stressed hahahahah. It felt like I've talked too much, and talked with so many people hahahahaha. Moral lesson? never sleep after going to friendster.com hahaha.
Anyways, I'll have to stop here cause any minute now I'll be going to my room to sleep, I don't want to attend another reunion......

Dull Saturday
Ey guys, its now 6:29pm here in Manila, haven't done anything exciting today.... I slept late last night,actually it was around 4am this morning that I was able to sleep. Got up at around 6:00AM to check whats for breakfast hahahaha. Got to chat with my brother for a while, before he left for our business. After he left, I got back into bed and slept a few more hours. My youngest brother woke me up around 10AM I think, just to say that he's leaving for an anime convention at UP. After that I got back to sleep and woke up just past lunch time. I wanted to go out, but I was waiting for Mel, an agent from the publishing company that mom is writing a book with.... She was to get the other drafts that we made, unfortunately the agreement was that she'll be here in the afternoon, but till now I haven't heard from her. I should have gone somewhere else....
Arrrg,this is my third post for the day,all I've been doing today was just to sleep and go online. Don't have much people to chat with on both MSN live and YM, most of my friends are offline aside from my friends from work, I tried chatting with Joyce from the office but it seems she's busy with some issues at work.
This day is so boring hahahhaha,also considering the uncomfortable weather outside. Another thing, Mom is still in the province with Tita Valsie because Lola Minyang had another stroke two days ago I think, hope she recovers soon.
If only I knew that Mel won't be coming, I could have gone somewhere....

If only I knew that Mel won't be coming, I could have gone somewhere....
Aug 29 Night out
Last August 29, I had the chance of seeing my friends from QM. I really missed these guys, even though I left QM more than a year ago, our friendship has stayed the same and is getting better each day. I can say that these people were with me all the way, even during the time that I was in the ICU last year. Everytime I spent with them were always fun. Well Anyways, here are some of the pics that we had.

Browse... browse.... browse.....
Ey guys,just as promised, 'm back and I'm going to blog hard hahahaha. Well I was suppose to post something with regard to my unpleasant experience with PLDT people. But I rather not, I saw a lot of blogs and comments through forums that speaks of their pathetic service. I just hope someone from PLDT would compile and create some action items regarding those issues. It's just ironic that PLDT is a big company, but it can't even provide a steady and reliable service. well anyways... it's their problem and not mine.
It's so nice to be online again here at home, I was able to visit my new friendster account... that my bestfriend Eric created hahahhaa. I'm back to compiling my friends again. Hey to all who wants me to be their friend, add me up, my email address is jay_apostol@hotmail.com hahhaahah hmmm I'm really not so sure that posting my email address is such a good idea.... hahahaha
I'm blogging again, I've visited sites that I can't visit from work.... Wow I'm really browsing my heart out.
I'm currently creating my playlist in imeem.com, I'm enjoying it,so many songs, it's faster and better. I've compiled song from my favorite OPM artists. Songs that I would surely include if I'll have a chance to have my own album hahahaha.
I guess I'll try to go to sleep now, I still need to go to work later today. C yah

Early Monday
It's now 1:41AM Monday here in Manila, just like the other days... I'm still having some issues sleeping. I tried not going online, and tried going to bed but still unsuccessful. I turned off the lights and closed my eyes... I was able to sleep.... but yet a simple sound woke me,damn I was only as sleep for roughly 20 minutes. I never reached never never land. I tried going back to sleep ... I can't... So I decided to stand up and watch TV. The TV in my room is currently out for repairs, so I need to go out to the living room. Nothing amusing in the TV, well aside from Harry Potter. So I decided to go online. I Checked out some sites, I started of .... from News websites...to checking my Email... to blog hopping from one Friend's blog to another .... oh I even went to a Porn Site hahahahah..... still nothing !!!! Still not sleepy, hmmm well maybe the porn site was a bad idea. c",)
So here we go with August's Work week 2... Hope things run smoothly this week. I'll try to be calm and steady, no let me re-phrase that .... I'll be calm and steady this week. I'll do my work and be happy, well anyway this is a payday week.
Oh btw, remember the books that mom is authoring, where I'm helping her out. I was able to finish the book for Grade 2, all mom needs to do now is to proof read it and add some more exercises. I'm about to start another book this week, I might do the one for HTML/Flash and or for VB. Well the good side of having this sleeping problem, was that I was able to make it a productive time.
To all barangay Ginebra fans.... the gin kings lost game 3 to air 21 :( Helterbrand was not able to play due to an injury last game 2. They started out great but air 21 has just too many good people playing.

Vent out ....
Ey guys what's up ? I just got home from work... Haven't posted something recently.... Kasi I think I have a sleeping disorder na, when I go online after work, I stay up till 4:00 am. Nahihirapan ako matulog lately. There's so many things that I'm thinking of right now, things that's really bugging me. Ano yun?
First is our business, it's just now that I'm helping my mom and my brother manage the school, kasi pakiramdam ko hindi nila natututukan. First problem may nag resign na teacher and mom is having some issues finding a replacement. Second is nahihirapan kami maningil, back accounts is now at 100+K and counting.... Nagagamit sa school yung pera na dapat na eenjoy namin, as well as yung ipon....pano naman yun?
Sa work... my immediate supervisor has just resigned, well to be honest, nde lang siya sup sakin, he's a friend.... yes again another friend is going to leave the team.... Ang hirap hirap naman oh. What is an analytics team kung JON lang nandun? Hindi ako imature... sabi ko nga, its something na I can't be comfortable of. And natatakot ako, kasi most of his work are replicated to me before in his absence, eh ngayong permanent na siyang mawawala. Buti sana kung mapropromote ako, but sbi nga ni Big Boss before.... "Pag may mag resign na sup... hindi na tayo kukuha ng kapalit" End of story ....
*** Oliver, I just wish you well, I know this is something that you wanted long long time ago na... and it's here.. make the most out of it. Sbi ko nga kay Marvin non, see yah around, ingats and keep in touch.

Beautiful in my Eyes - Joshua Kadison
Here's a song na gustong gusto ko right now, actually it was Oliver who introduced the song to me during the time that we attended Chev's birthday. Eh meron pala sa Magic sing.... and usually kinakanta namin ni Ruge pag nag jajamming kami, lalo na last week sa shift,though actually sing and dance kami ni Ruge eh, nasisingit lang tong song hahahaha. Here's a copy of the lyrics of the song... kung nde nyo lam pano kantahin, call me kantahin ko para sa'yo heheheheh.
Beautiful in my Eyes - Joshua Kadison
You're my peace of mind in this crazy world.
You're everything I've tried to find, your love is a pearl.
You're my Mona Lisa, you're my rainbow skies,
and my only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.
The world will turn and the seasons will change,
and all the lessons we will learn will be beautiful and strange.
We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs.
And my only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.
You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes.
When there are lines upon my face from a lifetime of smiles,
and when the time comes to embrace for one long last while,
we can laugh about how time really flies.
We won't say goodbye 'cause true love never dies.
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes.
You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes.
The passing years will show that you will always grow
ever more beautiful in my eyes.

INNOV8
I was browsing through http://www.gsmarena.com/ to check some phones out, I'm planning to buy a new phone if I won't be satisfied with what Globe will offer me. Currently they're offering me the Samsung Armani phone or some other models of Blackberry. Getting the free phone would me that both my plan and my mom's supplementary plan will be locked for 2 years and a half. My mom has plans of upgrading her plan so I decided to just call back if I'm to avail the phone. I talked with my mom just tonight and she asked me to discontinue her plan and that she'll be applying for her own plan this week. I also asked Globe if the offer would still stand if I cancel the supplementary line, they said a very thunderous "NO" hahahahaha. Pero I could call them daw to check what they can offer. So I think I would, after I get Mom's plan cancelled.
** thanks GSMARENA for the pics. You may also visit their site for the review and specs.
So ayun nga, I really wanted a Nokia N82 black series, tagal ko na inaabangan yun, naging available lang last month, but I haven't bought the phone yet, kasi medyo nag dadalawang isip ako with the keypad. If Globe will give me this phone for free, naku I don't mind locking my plan for 2 years again.
Going back, I was browsing kanina, and came across this 8 megapixel camera phone from Samsung. I never looked at any other phone before, I've been a consistent Nokia user, well at least for the phones I buy and use. Pero sa ngayon gamit ko kasi back up phone ni mom which is an SE Jurassic model hehehehe. Going back to the Samsung phone, not only that it has better camera compared to N82, it also has almost the same features..... and and it has the latest Symbian OS. Usually kasi yaw ko ng ibang phone kasi iba ang OS nila, ang hirap gamitin and medyo walang third party software na ma-install. Now since this phone runs also in a Symbian environment, its like the N82. Unfortunately the phone is not yet released, but the date said it would be this August, before Nokia releases N96. Hmmm magkano naman kaya ito.... Sana kaya ni budget hahahaha.

Email coming from my friend Lina.
It's been raining here in Manila for 3 days now. No typhoons just LPAs (Low Pressure Areas) well 2 of them to be exact, thats why I decided to spend the weekend at home.
Got enough sleep and got enough rest. I filed a vacation leave last Friday, that's why I had a long weekend. Remember the book that mom was writing ? I had to help her finish the first part last Friday, that's why I decided to go on leave.
Well just earlier this evening, I was about to generate a report for Charles but my connection via vpn kept on going on and off as well as my dsl, well it could have been the rain triggering it. Never the less, I still had a chance of checking my personal mail, through hotmail. It's been a while since I last checked it. Upon checking, it says that I got around 8 email and 16 junk ones. 2 coming from JP (a friend from HS) 2 were from Karlo (a friend from college) 2 from a horoscope site (I signed up before, kala ko horoscope tlaga, just recently I read it, Love horoscope pala kaya panay love ang nakasulat) and lastly 2 from Lina ......
Just the usual, I placed a check mark on the horoscope email and deleted it. I read JP's and Karlo's email which was more of a forwarded email. Then it was down to 2.... yes, it was Lina's email .... usually I never read Lina's email.... but this time something inside me told me to open it... so I did ....
Lina was recommending a lot of things .... things that were enticing .... tempting ..... persuasive.
Di ko lam, iba ang pakiramdam.... Should I or should I not ? bakit naman hindi ?
I think I'll give it a try .....

Going to the weekend....
I just ended another shift.... and we're also about to end another work week..... isang araw na lang yahoooooo
This week has been entirely different for me.... well I think it's something good actually. I got to experience things that I did long long before ..... and I guess something that I've been looking forward in doing again.
So many things took place this week, uhmm to start out, Jesley and Charles were sent to a training in Makati, then our new manager is now on board.... and lastly I get to manage the team for three days....
Well I was excited at one point but yet nervous at the other end. The last time I managed a team real time was back in M*N when I was the A shift HIO. Do I still have what it takes to lead? From the time kasi na I joined the Quality team, it seems like I was working solo that time. What we were doing was not real time, it's really a support group type of a team. I don't need to make abrupt decisions nor manage a queue.
IT Helpdesk is just like the M*N helpdesk how hard could it be? hahahahah So since last Tuesday till today, I moved my shift to an earlier time so that I could oversee both A and B shift. Everythings pretty cool. Sobrang na enjoy ko, well don't get me wrong... It was not because I was the boss that time, but its more on, I made myself available for the team, I got to relate, talk, converse.... ano pa.... bond with the team, well at least for A and B shift. I feel na I'm a lot closer to them now than before. Dati kasi ako yung tipong naka upo lang ako sa station ko doing my stuff, without worrying about things behind me....
I've learned a lot from this experience, even though its more load for me, ok lang I don't mind. These 3 days were the busiest days of my ITHD career but hey I liked it. Pati shift report nagawa ko na .... hahahaha ano pa hindi ko nagagawa ? ha ? VLAN change ? hmmm someday hahahaha.
Ay also yesterday.... Jen, one of our specialist needed to go on VLWOP to do something important... at one point natakot ako, kasi I know na we might encounter difficulties with the queue since kulang ng tao for the shift, also I know that Jen is also the escalation point of the team. Pero sige lang, I never asked anyone to extend, I had confidence with the other B shift members. Even though there was a pinch of fear in me, sabi ko ka sa kanila kaya natin to .... I told them I believe in these 3 guys na natira and just made a small huddle just in case we need to pull something up in cases of call spikes. Pucha I have a power house B shifters.... what could go wrong ? I even called them "the Veteran team" hehehehe and the theme was 1970s hehehehhe.
Ruge, Jeff and Sonny .... ala akong masabi sa nyo guys !!! Sobrang saludo ako sa nyo ... ala kayong kahirap hirap kausapin, a job well done mga dudes, and syempre it also goes to the A shifters, Mela, Joyce, Sol and Mae and the specialists, Mia and Jen. Kudos. Oh Dex also .... Dex ang galing mo !!!!

Reason for staying up late ......
WINDOWS VISTA !!!
My desktop is acting strange again ..... I'm getting a blue screen
I took the error and checked it with some forums, it seems that it's a conflict with the settings on my board, I have to enable the ACPI on the BIOS. which I did, It seems that its going though this time, but I need to be sure , I've gone to the Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool to check. Though there's this Status thing at the bottom of the screen it says "Hardware problems were detected. To identify and repair these problems, you will need to contact the computer manufacturer." Nge .... sino tatawagan ko hahahaha.
Hope it goes through this time, I might also update the BIOS, nyay walang tulugan ito.... Mom needs the files there....
