50 years of LOVE



50 years of marriage. 50 years of ups and downs 50 years of trials and success 50 years of LOVE

Their relationship is not perfect, but they were able to stand through time.
A true picture of through thick or thin.
For richer or for poorer, "til death do they part"

My grandparents has no permanent jobs. My grandfather is a gambler, who plays "sabong" a lot. We even tease him that the cock fight arena is his school. At the end of the game, if he wins the money will be used to buy food for his family. My grandmother is simple housewife, who wasn't able to graduate even elementary, selling "kakanins" to help his husband earn a living. With a very simple life that they have they were able to produce 6 Professionals. All of their siblings was able to earn a degree. According to them, they don't want their children's lives be as miserable as they used to have, that's why in any way they can they strive to bring all their children to college.

According to them, the only thing that they can give to their children is knowledge that's why they did their best to bring all 6 of them to college. Now all of them are professionals, working and successful. Not to mention, all of them were studying full time and was never been working students. All of them have dreams and for them to reach their dreams. They strive to get scholarships and grants, just for them to finish college.

May my grandparents be an inspiration to all men who are in the so called 3rd/4th level of the society. Let's all strive our best for success and encourage every child to learn and study.

I'm back

It took me this long to be back, Sorry about that the CPU got busted when i arrived. I'm already in Iligan by the way. Having a good time with my family. It wasn't that long really since the last time i was with them. But i really didn't have that quality time that i have been longing for the last time i was here. Now, i have 2 weeks to catch up with my family most specially my youngest sister Nique. No one can explain how much i miss her. Hehehe sounds overacting but its really true.

March 28, 2008 was her first recognition day as an elementary student. She got with honors, and I as the very proud ate announced it to the world, that she got a medal. She got 2 gold medals by the way. I attended her recognition, you can see it in her eyes that she was very happy receiving those medals. We then went to Jollibee for a simple treat.

It was fun!

FLEX!!!! grrr...

It's Good Friday today. I'm suppose to stay home and pray. But something bothers me that keeps me pushing towards going to the office. I texted the people in the office ahead, i have a bad feeling that i might be receiving a bad news today. So i went.

And here i am, sitting in front of the computer, trying to compose myself and act as professional as i can be. My manager showed me and email, and my instincts are correct. It's indeed a bad news. The new schedules are in and guess what? I have a flex schedule working 10x4. Flex sched..again! I remember requesting for a CORE sched cause the FleX schedule brought me a lot of trouble. Not only to my health but morally, and emotionally or shall i say it ruined my entire life (wew!!! thats big!). After reading the email, i just wanted to shout and throw all the computer to the scheduler right to his face. I don't know who to turn to, i wanted to explain why i can't have that sched, but definitely my manager cannot give me a direct answer as well, Only the scheduler can. That's why im here telling everything to you, to lighten up my load.

I am disappointed? Yes! Very! I can't imagine doing everything I can to give them good stats and give them perfect attendance, yet this is all i got! I still have 2 weeks to decide, to think and to meditate. I have to meditate on the future decisions i have to make. Justice was never served, i dont even know if they even know that word. But everything they did is too much for me to handle. I'm starting to explode, the ions of anger is starting to leak out of my hurt, my mind and my mouth. I don't want to hurt people, as much as i don't what to be hurt. But this is too much, don't you think?

Well a lot of people would say we should be thankful for our sched since its a morning sched. I just wanted to tell you that if you are in my shoes, i know you'd do the same. There are a lot of things you people don't know, try doing the things we do and stay there for years, it was never easy as what you think.

Male Version of Cinderella


When I arrive home I saw my best friend sleeping. Yup, in deep sleep. We tried waking him up for dinner but I guess his really tired to notice. So I waited till 12 midnight before I really wake him up to fix the sleeping area. He was surprised seeing me and was more surprised knowing that the clock already stroked 12. His like a male version of Cinderella and was in a hurry of moving out from the palace. He immediately stood up and picked his clothes and packed his things. He said has to go somewhere. I asked him where and he said “Mango”! I was surprised and wasn’t able to immediately react, while I’m on mute I was thinking, where he would possibly go? Minutes after he was back to his senses and said “I’m Hungry!” - hahahaha adrenaline rush . If only you can imagine him bringing his things out of the house, willing to take the risk of riding on a taxi and doesn’t know where to go, and you can add his early morning wake up look, it was really funny. Can’t stop giggling every time I recall the scene. ‘twas hilarious!

Get Paid to BLOG!

As i was searching for online opportunities to work from home. A previous co-worker of mine introduced me to pay per post. He provided me the link to know more about the site. I was hesitant at first since I thought it might be another scam on the Internet. But as i was observing him doing the blogs day to day i never realized it was true until i saw money coming into his bank account. I thought its all bogus information but he is really earning a living through pay per post.

So i decided to give it a try and check if my luck is the same as he has. I submitted my first entry yet it was disapproved. I got a bit disappointed but i didn't stop from there. This should have to be approved just like what my office mates are telling me, since they also are earning through blogging.So i did a second attempt. On my second attempt, i was surprised when i received the email that it was approved. I am very very happy knowing i can start earning through blogging.

Blogging is my passion. My outlet. Its so nice to know that i can actually make money out of it. Earning through the things that i love to do is very rewarding. Imagine by just giving your thoughts and saying anything you wanted to say for a certain topic that your really love, you are actually earning bucks out of it. Blogging might be one of the best past time things that i usually do, but earning a dollar out of it is a plus! It's so nice to get paid to blog. A writer is a profession, but blogging is a passion.

Being with pay per post makes me a better person. It enhances my writing skills and my critical thinking abilities. Pointing my views and giving my opinions exercised my mind that makes me one step ahead of the others. Pay per post is great I encourage everyone out there to give it a try. You'll see you'll love it.

Morning Bite!

my bessie arrived and woke me up with a bite! Ouch! Surprised but i was still sleepy so i slept. Hehehe leaving him with his lover and Irene. Im Drowsy to death, i slept 2am in the morning already and he arrived 6am in my house. Wew, can't help myself but go back to sleep. But when i woke up its already 8:30 a.m. Wew adrenaline rush and i have to move as quick as possible for me not be late. Good thing i arrived 15 minutes before time. Hahaha

My ticket to happiness...

I finally got my ticket to iligan. Finally after months of sleepness nights and sickly weeks. I can finally be with my family. Sounds over acting but i really miss them a lot! After all the trials and challenges i've been through, I know i deserve a break. Since this will be my first vacation of the year, i take time pampering myself. I picked a Cabin room for Single (Although my bessie will be going home with me, he replied late before i got my ticket so he has to bare with it. hehehe He will be buying an economy ticket but will sleep inside my room. hahaha... Wise thinker, huh?) Isn't that sweet? hehehe I just wanted to relax and be comfortable as i can be while on my way to happiness. *wink*wink*wink*

I already got one!!!

i was strolling SM Cebu looking for a nice necklace, just a fashion necklace for the wedding since i will be using it only once. Checked from one store to the other, transferring from one stoll to the other. When i entered the SM Department store i checked on bathing suits for my baby sis, then i was drawn into the luggage section. Coincidence or destiny i saw this violet trolley displayed in one of the counters. As i saw it i said hmmm... it is placed there so this one might be quiet expensive. So i decided to try to check the price. To my surprise, it's cheaper than the one i bought last friday. My heart is pounding and i really wanted to buy it at that moment. But what am i going to do with 2 trolley bags? I immediately called my mom and ask her to buy it for me. But she said she already bought one for my sister, I called my housemate Irene and she said she cant afford it, its not within her budget! i almost wanted to give up, but because i love the bag so much, i texted everyone in my Globe Network and my Sun network, whoever is interested in buying a red trolley bag i can give it lesser than the original price. I was blessed when my gorgeous team lead informed me that she's looking for one. Without any second thought i went back to the store and purchase it in cold cash. Wew! it hurt my budget but its worth it. I feel contented and very happy getting my own violet luggage. Hehehe it may sound corny but what can i say, i'm just so happy that i already got one. :-D

Why women can't find the man of their dreams?

1. The nice men are ugly.

2. The handsome men are not nice.

3. The handsome and nice men are gay.

4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual
men are married.

5. The men who are not so handsome,
but are nice men, have no money.

6. The men who are not so handsome,
but are nice men with money think we
are only after their money.

7. The handsome men without money are
after our money.

8. The handsome men, who are not so
nice and somewhat heterosexual,don't
think we are beautiful enough.

9. The men who think we are beautiful,
that are heterosexual,somewhat nice
and have money, are cowards.

10.The men who are somewhat handsome,
somewhat nice and have some money and
thank God are heterosexual, are shy
and NEVER MAKE THE FIRST MOVE!!!!

11.The men who never make the first
move, automatically lose interest in
us when we take the initiative.


hmmmm... any comment?

TRUE LOVE 101: What is True Love?

Many people right now are waiting for their true love, that includes me in the list. I don’t know who started this true love myth but im taking the bit of it. If you would ask people about it, they would eventually tell you, “ there’s no such thing as true love”! some would say “you will now it when it comes!”. My question is. How will you know if that is true love?


While trying to answer that question, I tried searching the perfect answer over the internet. Hoping that I can gather better and updated info about it. So I searched and searched google for it. Website after website I searched for an answer. Something not biblical, something debatable.
I came across another blog. Created by a Filipina who married a foreigner. She opened her article with a bible verse. I read on it and since as I go along I find a lot of bible verses and her explanation about true love, I stopped and look for some more. I stoped not because I don’t believe the bible. I stopped because im searching for Something earthly I should say? Something debatable just like I said. But its already been hours and I still cant find for something that ive been looking for. So I tried to read on some articles that ive encountered and tried to make my own answer for the socalled true love mania.


Love. It’s a commonly thrown around four-letter word.”I love peanut butter”, “I love barbecue”, “I love chocolates” (Sounds familiar isn’t it?) Sometimes, even an “I love him” , “I love her” or “I love you” . Ouch im guilty for the latter.


What is true love? And is there a difference between that and the heart-pounding adrenaline rush I feel when I see …? If you’re a close friend of mine you know the person I’m talking about. That hot guy playing the guitar or drums at the bar… the cute girl who makes eye contact as she passes by… the friend of a friend of a friend… maybe a best friend. It’s that person we keep track of when he or she is in the same room, whose comments and actions we analyze without an end.


According to Harriet Sun, There are a few things love isn’t. Love isn’t a feeling. Although real love is often accompanied by strong feelings, love does not equate with the sense of floating on clouds or butterflies in the stomach. Unlike the type of love that movies, televisions and songs portray, people in love don’t always feel ooey gooey around each other. A relationship wouldn’t last long on emotions. In fact, knowledge is the basis of a healthy relationship.


Knowing the other person is key. I used to and sometimes still do “fall in love” with guys that I have never had a conversation with, whether it be a movie star in the latest romantic drama series or the guy behind me on the line in the pantry. I would know his name and his face, and that was the extent of my knowledge of him. If were to start a relationship with him, who knows where that would lead us!


Knowing about the person’s personality and character are so important (I think!). One good test is to list the qualities that attract us to that guy or girl. If the list is long, we know a lot about them or we know a lot but aren’t attracted to his or her personality.


Another is common life goals. If you decided that the relationship should be long term, we need to be going in the same general direction as the other person. If his dream is to travel around the world and she wants to be in a single location, conflict could arise. If she wants to live in a the country side with nature and the so called peaceful life and he likes the hustle and bustle of a big city, there are potentially serious problems with the direction of the couple’s lives. You two should be going the same way.


Love isn’t sex. Yeah and I'm definitely hearing contradictions at the back of your mind now! This statement alone goes against a lot of what the entertainment industry feeds us. Whenever two people hook up in pop culture, they have sex. Female and Male magazines are even teaching some outrageous techniques how to strengthen and deepen your relationship with your romantic partner through sex. Without showing some of the unpleasant realities of premarital and extramarital sex, it is drawn up to be a wonderful, fun recreational activity.


Sex is created for marriage—a long-lasting commitment between a couple. Outside of marriage, sex can have harsh consequences. Pregnancy, sexually transmitted disease, guilt, insecurity, and shame can follow. A relationship based on lust can only last as long as the two are physically close and find each other sexually attractive.


Love is a choice. It’s a commitment. Although feelings will accompany love and although sex will be a part of marriage, a lasting, healthy relationship cannot be based in these things
Remember earlier I told you that I'm searching for an explanation without any biblical content in it since it would be un debatable. Well the reason why I cant find one is because God is Love. God, as our designer and creator made us with needs for love. Have you ever wonder why we constantly seek love from others but never feel completely satisfied It’s because God designs us for an unconditional love, and we, as people, are flawed.


People, whether friends, family, or your significant other, will invariably let you down or hurt you at some point. God wants us to find our need for love and acceptance in him first. One person cannot meet all our needs , even ifd he’s funny or she’s thoughtful. Only God can satisfy us!


According to TRUE LOVE 101: What does it take to be that significant other?
Love : Sees the other person’s imperfections and still love them
Love : Wants to serve the other person; selfless and not selfish
Love : Still spends time with others and does not spend all the time with the partner
Love :Takes time to build relationship and does not quickly falls
Love : Other relationships and friendships grow stronger
Love : Trust and understanding result in less sever and less frequent jealousy
Love : Encompasses a long-term commitment
Love : Survives and sometimes is strengthened because of distance
Love : Quarrels are less serious and less often
Love : Quarrels can strengthen the relationship and not damage it.


Given the scenarios and/or conditons presented above, are convincing and quiet acceptable to be the bases of what true love is. So i guess thats what really true love is.... whatchathink?

If you just realize

"If you just realize what I just realized,Then we'd be perfect for each other
And will never find another. Just realized what I just realized We'd never have
to wonder if We missed out on each other now."
A very nice stanza of a song from Colbie Calliat , she was hoping that what she had realized for the man that he loved realized the same. Base on the story of her Music video. They realized that they are better off with each other than being apart. So they decided to visit one another and tell each other what they have realize. From the music video it can be assumed that they realize they love each other. hmmm... A very nice scene in a video hoping i can have that realization soon. And hoping it would be mutual with that person, who ever he is.

Bb Pilipinas 2008 Commentary

The annual Binibining Pilipinas Beauty Pageant is a continuing project of Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Incorporated (BPCI), a non-stock, non-profit organization founded by its chair, Stella Márquez de Araneta. The pageant was envisioned as a prestigious fund-raising activity for projects that would benefit orphans, indigent families and other less fortunate members of Philippine society.
The search for Bb. Pilipinas-Universe started in 1964 . Since then, the yearly quest has become the biggest, most awaited local beauty event with hundreds of aspirants from all over the country. As rigid screening and final selection go on, the winner-the best of the lot, the perfect representative of the Filipina-is chosen. In 1968, the BPCI acquired the local franchise for the Miss International pageant with Nini Ramos winning the title. The following year, the title Bb. Pilipinas-International was proclaimed together with the Bb. Pilipinas-Universe in one grand Coronation Night, setting the trend for multiple proclamations of beauty titles.
Binibining Pilipinas 2008 ended with a blast! Since we've been expecting this pageant every year i never took any chance watching it live. Cause I thought just like the previous years the most beautiful and witty ladies would definitely win. But i was completely disturbed by the news that i received the night after the coronation night. Something happened that everyone did not expect. Rumors flooded the office and everyone logged in to you tube. So i watched the video as well. As usual the ladies parade their beauties and sexy bodies, just making me more insecure every time they come out exposing their flesh. And here we go the most awaited part and the most controversial part of the said pageant , the question and answer portion. My jaw dropped and I'm shocked. I can't stop my self from laughing and wait for what's the next worst thing that would happen. There were so many boo boo's, so many speech flaws and not to mention very unprofessional grammatical errors. At first I thought it maybe because of nervousness, standing on that stage in front of thousands of people would definitely be terrifying, but since they were all prepared for that moment, they were all trained for the event and they chose to be part of that pageant, the scenario was completely unacceptable. Not to mention some of them are mass communication students and/or speech communication graduates. Nevertheless the prestigious pageant became an instant stand-up comedy bar! It was indeed a happy event successful, but something that you cant be proud off.

Sick But still at work.

I cannot understand how people be so inconsiderate. Thinking only of themselves, so selfish!. I'm here very sick but still working. But the others are having the best time of there lives, having fun and abandoned their jobs for a while. I honestly have planned to absent but i have thought of the people that will be left on the queue if I wont come in. That's why im here working. But sad to say as i was thinking about them, there are others who are just thinking about themselves. How selfish. So here i am consuming my lunch break to make this blog hoping to ease the hurt that i feel towards my team mates. There are only 3 people logged in and its queueing. Im sick trying to be well but still working. Others are well but they are not here. Whatever reasons they have i can respect it but its still unacceptable.
