Saturday Getaway - Bad-minton

It all started with a stiff neck. I woke up on the wrong side of the bad..( once again ) It was saturday -> another badminton day. Huli na ng nag sink in sa akin na ngayon ang Championship Day.

Oh well, another day.. another challenge..
Maaga kaming nagpunta sa SMARTSHOT, to eat breakfast and practice.

This is it! (Maroon vs. Red)
1st Match kami.. We lost.
But our teammates won all the rest of the game.. (8-1)

So we lead by 1 pt from GREEN (40-39).

2nd Match (ChampionShip)
RED vs. GREEN

Set C : Green (1pt)
Set B : Red (3pts)
Set A : Green (2pts)

==============
By this point, score is now tied. (3-3) decision game na yung kay Jode-Ann vs. Kaye-Sir Rheo.
Kabado, dehado.. pero lalaban ang RED.. hehehe drama!!!

Score ended at 21! It was 30mins past 12 when they took the picture of the winning team.
Whatever happened! I'm still proude of the RED team for giving a good fight.

Eto lang masasabi ko.. Si Calai ang Lucky charm ng winning team.. hahaha
Congrats Ca-te!! For winning 2 years in a row...
Next year team mates tayo ha.. ;)

Mount Maculot, Batangas

Joy Ride to Batangas

I'll like to extend my deepest gratitude to our TOUR GUIDE ( JEGS&JANE) on our "short" trip to MT. Maculot.

And My Greatest Appreciation to ANN, for driving us to Batangas after the tiring badminton game.

And to Jode and Rage, who came and entertain us with their beautiful songs.

Oo nga pala, si Rage ang nagdala ng Bag.... Salamat sa pawis..hehehe..

The trekking part was tiring, but the view is beautiful.
Hopefully, next time na umakyat ako... maabot ko na ang dulo.. :D

Thanks sa lahat po..



Pano nga kumain ng isda?????

Favorite Things (Case 1)

Bad Habbits:
Food/Drinks:

I eat maki/sushi for braekfast.

I eat too many fatty(TABA literally) foods.
I eat too many chocolates(toblerone the best).
I love instant noodles.(staple food)
I crave for chicken skin. (proven - chicharon)

I'm a self confessed coffee-holic.
I put too much sugar to my coffee (5 spoonfuls will do).
Worst, I crave these on the go drinks! GJ -> Starbucks -> Figaro

Like blood that accepts certain types, mine accepts coffee or iced tea only.
Too bad!!! My Body is composed of 99% liquid (coffee,tea, water)

Pizza Hut - Not Yellow Cab.
Spaghetti is good. But I prefer the Pasta alone.
Cakes!!! Chocolate!!! Coffee Crumble! Cheescake!!

I buy food and leave them half eaten.
It's not that I don't like them.
It's just I have forgotten they exist.
I got very bad case of selective amnesia.

--- i know, this is bad..
but i can't help myself.. ---

I need rehabilitaion, now! and Fast!

Quote - UnQoute

It's hard to find an "ideal" job where everything you do would be
enjoyable but it's sad that sometimes, the only motivation for you to
do something is the reward that you will get once you finish the job.

SUICIDE

TIPS PARA SA LIGTAS, MAGINHAWA, AT DI MALILIMUTANG PAMAMAALAM SA MUNDO:

1. Bago ang lahat, alamin muna ang tamang dahilan sa pagsu-suicide. Kung ang problema mo lamang ay dahil sa wala kang pera o iniwan ka ng minamahal mo, hindi ka dapat magpakatiwakal. Ang mundo ay tambak ng mga tao na pwede mong mahalin at ang pera ay pede mong kitain, kaya hindi ka dapat mawalan ng pag - asa. Ang pagkitil sa sariling buhay ay KARAPATAN LAMANG ng mga taong gumagamit ng cellphone at nakikipagkwentuhan sa loob ng sinehan.

2. kung desidido ka na sa gagawin mong pagpapakamatay at sa tingin mo meron kang tamang dahilan para gawin ito, ang susunod mong hakbang ay ang pagpili ng PARAAN NG PAGPAPAKAMATAY. Ang mga popular na paraan ay ang pagbibigti, pag - inom ng lason, pagtayo sa gitna ng riles ng tren, pagbaril sa ulo ( o sa puso kung wala ka ng ulo pero buhay ka pa din ) at paglaslas ng pulso. Ang mga jologs naman na paraan ay ang pagtalon sa flyover sa EDSA at pagpigil ng hininga. Tandaan, maari kang mabuhay pag nagkamali ka sa pagsasagawa ng mga nabanggtit, kaya pumili lamang ng isa na HIYANG sa'yo. Bukod dyan, marami rin sa mga paraang ito ang MAKALAT at NAKAKA- PANGIT. Dyahe naman kung pagtitinginan ng mga tao yung mukha mo sa ataul tapos mukha kang dehydrated na langaw.

3. Sumulat ng suicide note. Ito ang exciting. Dito pwede mong sisihin lahat ng tao at wala silang magagawa. Sabihin mo na hindi mo gustong tapusin ang buhay mo kaso lang bad trip silang lahat. Pero wag din kakalimutang humingi ng tawad sa bandang huli para mas cool pag ginawa ni Carlo J. Caparas ang buhay mo. At tandaan, IMPORTANTE ANG SUICIDE NOTE para malaman ng mga tao na nagpakamatay ka nga at hindi na - murder. Sa ganitong paraan, maiiwasan ng PNP ang pagkuha sa kalye ng kahit sinong tambay bilang suspect.

4. Pumili ng THEME SONG. Banggitin ang iyong special request sa suicide note. Ipagbilin na patugtugin ito sa prusisyon ng iyong libing. IWASAN ang mga kanta ng Salbakuta. DAPAT MEDYO MELLOW at MEANINGFUL...tulad ng mga kanta ng Sexbomb. 5. Isulat ng MAAYOS ang suicide note. PRINT. Iwasang magbura. Gumamit ng scented stationary at #1 mongol pencil. Lagdaan. Wag gumamit ng sticker. Ilagay ang suicide note sa MADALING MAKITA. IDIKIT SA NOO.");

5. Isulat ng MAAYOS ang suicide note. PRINT. Iwasang magbura. Gumamit ng scented stationary at #1 mongol pencil. Lagdaan. Wag gumamit ng sticker. Ilagay ang suicide note sa MADALING MAKITA. IDIKIT SA NOO.

6. PLANUHIN ANG ISUSUOT. Tandaan, minsan ka lang mamamatay, kaya dapat memorable ang get - up. Pumili ng mga telang di umuurong o makati sa katawan. Magbaon ng dalawang pares pampalit pag pinagpawisan ka.

7. Kumuha ng de - kalidad na ataul. Maganda ang kulay puti dahil malamig at kumportable kahit tag - init. Huwag magtipid. Mas makakamura kung bibili ng cable ready kesa magpapalit pa balang araw.

8. Pumili ng magandang pwesto sa sementeryo. Ang puntod ng mga taong ipinanganak sa year of the rat, dragon, rabbit, snake, tiger, chicken, pork, at beef ay dapat nakaharap sa Fiesta Carnival. Ang mga ipinanganak sa ibang taon ay dapat i-cremate at gawing foot powder para gumaan ang pasok ng pera.

9. Itaon ang araw ng libing sa unang dalawang linggo ng buwan o di kaya'y huling dalawang linggo para gumaan ang pasok ng pera.

10. Kung meron ka ng NBI, at police clearance, affidavit of loss, voter's ID, promissory note, original copy of birth certificate, at urine sample, pwde mo ng isagawa ang kalugod - lugod na gawain. Siguraduhin lang na di ka mababalita sa tabloid katabi ng mga article tungkol sa kabayong tatlo ang ulo, at sirenang namataan sa Manila Bay para gumaan ang pasok ng pera........

==========================
Natawa naman ako dito...
Totoong dapat pinagpaplanuhan lahat ng bagay..
Maging ang isang kamatayan..
==========================

How thicK can YOu GET!??

I'm so over this...

Bakit ba pipol tend to see me and judge my action as I was 2-5 Yrs ago????

I don't think I'll be that thick, shallow and pathetic...
I'm happy for all the people who have
'touched' and/or 'hurt' my life.

Maybe they should be the one who should think things over!!!

Ano pa bang kailangan kong ipakita para malaman ng lahat na contented din ako sa present life ko (if not happy)???

Haller!!!!
Grrr...

One more thing.. Wag mag feeling!!! Kung sino man ang tamaan talagang PRANING!!

Platonic

"Platonic Love is a fool's name for the affection between a disability and a frost."
--- Ambrose Bierce



This is just taken from an email sent by One of my officemate.
Wala lang.. na realize ko na cool sya.
Ang masasabi ko lang.. This also goes for GIRLS..

That kindness and simple sweetness or affection should NEVER be mistaken for ROMANTIC LOVE.
Comprende. :D

HINDI DAHIL KINAIBIGAN KA, LILIGAWAN KA NA.
Not every guy who befriends you has an ulterior motive. Get over yourself. Don't flatter yourself. There is a reason why he befriended you, but don't automatically assume that it's because he wants to be your so-called boyfriend. If this will be the principle you'll follow everytime someone asks you to be his friend, you're gonna miss a great deal from the friendship.

HINDI DAHIL MABAIT SA IYO, NILILIGAWAN KA NA.
There are people who are naturally sweet and kind. There are people who are innately good and that no matter how wicked you seem, they just find it so easy to be kind to you. It doesn't mean he is courting you. Don't put yourself through unnecessary stress trying to figure out if he's courting you or not. Because I think if he is, you won't have to guess, you'll know and you'll be very certain about it.

HINDI DAHIL HE TALKS TO YOU A LOT, HE LOVES YOU
NA. You don't befriend a person if you absolutely abhor him, right? Chances are you make sense when he talks to you, or you're probably very patient listening to him. The two of you probably connect on some level but why does it always have to be assumed to be romantic? Being two intelligent, mature human beings, you need to accept that it's nice to share a cup of coffee over a stimulating conversation, and that you don't have to automatically put romantic connotation to it. Relieve yourself of the pressure. It's just coffee and a shared interest.

HINDI DAHIL YOU HANG-OUT WITH EACH OTHER MOST OF THE TIME, YOU'D END UP BEING BOYFRIEND-GIRLFRIEND.
Self-explanatory... There are a thousand, no million different reasons why things don't always turn out that way. There is no one proven formula. For all we know, the reason why he likes hanging out with you is because he likes getting kikay tips from you. He probably plans on being kikay himself and he needs a mentor.

A DINNER WITH A GUY FRIEND DOES NOT NECESSARILY EQUATE TO A DATE. Especially if you're paying for your share no. Hello? Three things to consider: the place, the topic and how the two of you actually planned to meet. First, how it was planned. If it were a date expect that he would ask you out at least three days before the actual date to give you some lead time, to give you the notion that you are not just a filler on his schedule. Second, the place. If it were a real date, the both of you would want real food and a place where you could really talk things through. Don't go out with a guy to a movie on Friday night if you're really serious about him. Going to a movie is more like treating him like a "filler" just because you had nothing to do on a Friday night so you might as well go out. Topic. Ha! You wouldn't be talking about chikang artista, chikang opisina, or argue if the one girl's "assets" are are real or not. You would be probably talking about sensible, quite personal stuff.

Back Trax

I woke up yesterday on the other side of the world. Rubbing my eyes in disbelief. I realized that I was really at UP. Yep, inside the UP campus.

Masyado na talaga akong nasanay sa aking daily routine. That it felt so weird to wake up by 630am on someone else's bed.

Babski and Banana were kind enough to entertain me last night with their girlie stories and pajama party. I rally miss those kind of stories.

Minutes after 8 in the morning, Babski and I walked to the Engg building.
Nakasabay namin ang mga FRESHIES na galing sa KALAY pasakay sa TOKI.
Heheheh.. I dunno if I'll be proud to say thay I could still pass as a first year college, but I think I'll get over it. hahaha..

Things around looked the same, but somethings were different..
Students have to present their I.D. when they enter the building premises.
I have had difficulties, since my I.D. was 'older' and I don't have any form 5 to present.
Either way, i was still able to enter Engg using this charms..

Dumaan muna ako sa Admin para makuha ung Diploma ko, ni Donnie at Calai.
Then, I decide to drop by the Dept. and Check what's new.

Marami pa ding nakadikit sa pader.
Maraming Announcements.
Petitions.
Request.
Job Offers..

I miss the time when I have written my name on those petition list, try outs and other comments.

Minutes later, Acel arrived.
Before we proceed to OUR, we decide to drop by the 'CURSOR Tambayan'

Things were not the same anymore.
There were no familiar faces.
I couldn't even recognize the face of the current member entertaining the new applicants.

After login in the LOG Book, We went to OUR.
We have to finish before 10am.
I am only on half day leave.

Lucky for us, it was still early.
The OUR just opened.
There were still few people.

We got what we came for.
This is over.
I'm now an official UP Graduate.

There might be no more reason for me to come back here.
But there will always be to many Memories left there for me to come back for more.

UP gave me the best experience in life.
I'll always be thankful and proud.

We walked back to Eng'g.
Ate my brunch.
And decide to go back to reality.

I knew, it'll take me 4 months or more..
before I come back and talk to my old roomates again...

SCAR

I was listening to the radio last night..
And Around 4am in the morning, I heard this song.
I couldn't help but wake up...
Wala lang nalungkot ako sa kanta nya..

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And my scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
Drunk and I'm feeling down

And I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
And I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
All I can say is

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real

I tear my heart open just to feel
I tried to help you once

Against my own advice I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever came around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
And I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life

Buy medicine.

I'm not yet finished with my journal entry.
So here's my rough draft of the day..
Enjoy!

ThanK YoU

I talked to donnie and char last night...
I told them a story that I have intentionally erased from my memory.

While I was telling that story, I felt bad.
I have forgotten that person that..

.. was a friend.
.. sang me songs.
.. walked me home.
.. treated me dinner.
.. provided my cell with load.
.. helped me stalk my crush.
.. helped me through the end of my college...

.. accidentally learned to like me...

I feel so bad telling them the story.
I realized...
I have been rude.

My reaction towards him was futile and unjust.
It was not intentional..
I'm just not used to that sudden revelations..

But today..(after more than a year)
I wanted to thank him.
For everything..
He gave me assurance in life.
And redeemed my self confidence.

I might not be able to reach him..
This might seem pathetic..
And It might be too late..

Still.

THANK YOU.

PIMP - LE

Just when you thought you are free from all the blemishes..
Just when you thought you could escape from the rashes..

It strikes you right before you eyes..

Blocks your breathing...
Swells like hell..

Just when you think things got better.....
you become uglier!!!

hahahah..

I can't understand how this thing could ever happen.
You wake up one morning and you feel nothing!!!
You are as numb as a corpse.
Running after your nose and feeling the cold creeping unto you..

SHHHHHHHET!!!!

UP - RALLY - GMA

After badminton, I met cathy at makati ayala station.

She helped me pick which brand of Badminton Racket I should buy.
It took us some time to choose... But in the end.. we left empty handed..
Although there were many cool, light weight and cheap rackets.. I seize to find something that suites me. I'd really like to get the most out of my money's worth so this time I'd really like to buy something that is worth it...

So we went to glorieta to have a our "miryenda". Kakakain ko lng ng lunch so I'm still full.
What I really want is an iced coffee..Na miss ko nga husto ang GJ coffee.. Or any coffee na makakapag resemble nun. I know it's quite expensive for a "coffee". And it's really more of a "WANT" than a "NEED". Kaso, I think I deserve that coffee.. And I'm craving!!!!!

We had some chit chat while drinking coffee at BO's coffee club at Glorieta..
She handed me the copy of the new collegian.
I'm impressed.
Malinis.
Maayos.
Aktibista.

I'm quite shocked at the recent events posted regarding GMA.
But that reaction didn't made a big impression on me.

Why?
Why NOT?

What else is new?
I have grown into the kind of environment that cater such hatred for corrupt.
I have seen this before when I was in college.
And I have had enough.

The unfolding event has left me hopeless...
Sure I've had my share of activism
But we have been to the streets far too many times.
The PEOPLE POWER and EDSA Revolution have had far too many sequels to be effective.

We have cried far too many times for wolves dressed in sheep's clothing.
Still we never seem to figure out which one is real.

I have had the impression that her term wouldn't last that long, ever since she recalled her decision "NOT" to run for president.
I also believed that its was wrong for the people to vote for her during the election, just because she is the lesser evil.
It's not right to blame everything to one person. All of us are at fault. The problem with us is that we point fingers right away instead of tracing back our tracks for the root cause.

I know people today are so pissed off with all that has been layed unto them.
But I know that like me, most of them have become apathetic.
Indifferent. Hopeless..

Why? Haller! We live in the country where our major criminals lived in the PALACE!!! Then, moved in a rest house for house arrest! with full body guards! As if they could be more dangerous than the person ready to snatch your 3310 cellphone!
Plus! We have Power Tripping Vice-Presidents waiting to prowl on the mob infested issues of the presidents!

This is what I see...

We choose human beings for politicians --> presidents, at this point!
And by the PREMISE : "POWER causes people to be CORRUPT"
Eventually... well you know what might happen..

I suggest, we choose someone good and we shorten the presidential terms.
Give him enought time to implement his goals but not too long to establish underground activities.

Unfortunatelly, we are not of the liberty to do that..

So..
You could say i'm wrong..
But I'm just an "internal" activist...
I prefer to work "inside" the issue..
And not walk-"OUT" for it!

Cathy and I finished chit chat about UP and Ilang...
Somethings, have not changed..
Hindi pa din umaasasa UAAP Basketball ang mga UP students..
Great bands still line up to perform sa FRESHMAN NIGHT.
Power tripping pa din sa pag negotiate ng boxes and balde sa dorm.
Hindi pa grad ang isa kong roomate dati..heheheh

Finishing my coffee.. I start to think.
Itutulog ko na nga lang ito...
Maswerte pa din ako for now..
I have problems to figure out!
but the Philippines has bigger problems...

Badminton

REMEMBER : Last year........

At sinabi ko pang ... may nex time pa ..

Sa totoo lang ha!!!!

Na Pagod na ako sa kakalaro ng badminton.
Siguro nga hindi na ako physically fit.
and masakit mang sabihin.. inaamin kong Tumatanda na din Ako.
Nawawala na ang hilig ko sa mga physical activities.

Hindi na din ako nakakalaro ng basketball.
And all the time I spent here in Laguna, ginugugol ko lang sa panonood ng T.V. at pagtulog.

Iba ang epekto ng pag ta trabaho sa akin..
Para akong pinagkakaitan ng tulog at "social life"

Either way, malaking factor na din siguro ang current state of mind ko.
I'd rather sleep than run after shuttlecocks.

Good luck talaga sa akin.. :))
I don't think kakayanin ko ang trekking na pinaplano namin this July...
Bakit nga ba di nalang mag ballroom dancing.. hehehehe..


We won 1 out of 2 games.

Pakner!!!
Practice pa tayo..
Gagantihan natin ang tumalo sa atin.. ;)
