facebook generation

the status of the day that amused me the most was this: Welcome to Facebook... Where love stories are perfect. Where shit talkers tell the truth. Where everyone brags they have the perfect life and claim to be in love with their partners. Where your enemies are the ones that visit your profile the most. Where your ex-friends block you. Where your ex-love unfriends you. Where you post something & people interpret whatever the hell they want.

So whatever happened to the value of being anonymous? In this generation it became like a death penalty, and if you dont create an account for yourself, someone definitely will.

happy 2011

the first blog for this year 2011, i would want to make a regular posting since i already have a notebook and i could get online frequently.

since the mid of last year i havent been posting my trips as i have been busy setting up my facebook account and stuff, so i want to post my trips on the later part of 2010.

summer leg three - lucena and luban, quezon province

Honestly, i am not too keen on the pahiyas festival in the province of Quezon, although we have relatives in my mother's side in the area that we could go to. This the is the first time if my memory serves me right that I personally got off the did the "little stop over" that we were just doing during the times that we were going to my mothers home town in bicol.

My mom didnt actually promised that we can go to alot of places since she spent her highschool years in lucena city and she said the place is a lot modern now. She also warned me before i leave that the houses are no longer decorated since the actual festival fell on a saturday and we will be arriving at saturday midnight. According to the old ritual, when the patron passes the street, the entire decorations should be removed without leaving anything behind.

Here are the few houses that won the decorating festival that was preserved probably for until sunday for the late visitors to see.

summer leg two - vigan ilocos sur

Despite many warnings about not going to alien places during the holy week especially on good friday, i still insisted to take a break from the metropolis and go laid back for a four day rest day.
We went via florida bus to vigan thursday night and arrived at early friday morning, and went home on sunday afternoon.
More blogs to follow. The picture was taken from the world heritage site of Calle Crisologo.

batangas virgin island

yep, it exist, in laiya batangas where we held our latest team building, try checking the facebook photos.

Laiya is one of the nicest beaches ive been and you can have all the fun with more than 50 percent savings in boracay island.

We had snorkling and fish feeding and the trip to the island and were offered buko by the natives.

I had a lot of fun on that weekend.

apple launches the ipad

i just viewed a video posted from a colleague in the office about the newest apple tablet

according to the CEO who launched it with a demo, it will be the best internet browsing experience anyone could have, and he said "its more intimate that a laptop". hmmm, i understand that he spends his entire life in the office making and doing business but i totally disagree by what he said about being intimate than a laptop.

well, the words are in time for the season.

you know it right?

happy 2010

will post some more later

I Love It

results on: are you clinically insane?

Your Result: Sociopath (Antisocial Personality Disorder)


You don't care about rules. You don't care about inflicting pain. In fact, you don't care about anything besides fulfilling your own twisted desires, regardless of the cost to others. This is what makes persons with Antisocial Personality Disorder capable of anything, and thus, the most dangerous of all crazies. Maybe you're not a serial killer... maybe you just take advantage of people at any available opportunity. Maybe you steal for the fun of it, maybe you enjoy hurting people's feelings, or manipulating those around you, pitting them against each other for your own amusement. In any case, you're a sick f***. Get help.

thats more like it, haha.

my true age is

25. darn quizzes, i really feel 15!
i just miss the days where i am still a student (aka house parasite) and i have nothing to worry about but how to make my grades stabilized, enjoy the road show of being a highschool politician, outwit my asshole batchmates and other batchmates, and just plain dreaming on how my college life will be.
i actually feel nostalgic of this month since this is the graduating month and i can still remember my scholastic graduations: my bachelors degree and highschool, but i find it kind of weird that the highschool grad is vividly remembered than my bachelors.
lets just get to the bottom of all this, i just missed being a highschool student, believe me there are a lot of reasons. :)

i just passed my letter of resignation

here we go again

i love shinee

amigo, noona youre so pretty and love like oxygen, are some of their famous songs

para kay B

14 pebrero 2009
para kay ginoong mike,
ngayon ko lang napagtanto mula sa aking laging wari'y natutlog na kaisipan na ipinahiram mo pala ang sipi ng aklat na iyon sa bisperas ng araw ng mag puso.
matagal ko nang gustong hiramin sa iyo ang aklat na iyon ngunit hindi ko alam kung bakit sa araw ng mga puso mo pa ito naalalang dalhin sa ating opisina na wari bagay nanadya ang tadhana.
mabilis ko lang binasa ang aklat sapagkat ito namay nasusulat lamang sa wikang filipino kayat hindi ko na kelangang iproseso pa sa aking isipan o literal na isaling ang mga salita upang maunawaan.
gaya ng sinabi ni binibining joyce bernal, maganda ang bagsak ng mag salita sa aklat at mabilis din akong nadala at napatawa ng ilang mga prinsipyo ng may akda tungkol sa pag ibig.
ang ibay pinaniniwalaan ko, ngunit ang ibay hindi, dahil sa aking palagay, ang pag ibig ay isang desisyon at hindi emosyon na katulad ng karaniwa'y tema ng kanyang mga sinulat.
sa aking palagay, wala ding lumigaya sa limang karakter ng kwento kaya't medyo hindi rin totoo na may kumota sa kanilang lima.
hindi ko alam pero natutwa akong magbasa ng kwento ng pag ibig na bigo ang katapusan.
muli, salamat sa pagpapahiram mo ng aklat na iyon.
maligayang araw ng mga puso kahit tapos na.

holiday depression

december should be the most awaited and anticipated time of the year, this is the part of the year when almost all people celebrate their vacations, shopping, and never ending parties.
but from the different side of my brain, it is the start of several weeks of stress and lack of sleep, holiday rush etc.
its has been more than a decade when i started to realize i havent enjoying the season as much as other people do.

well honestly, im just giving an excuse why i didnt write so frequently.
=)

christmas is the season to rejoice, but right now the entire celebration has already become commercialized that all of us has forgotten the true meaning of the most wonderful time of the year
