I quit but I'll start a new one...

So I quit my job. I decided to stop joining exhibits but I can still continue merchandising our products to people who might be interested. Thank God, I got hired in Security Bank. Didn't expect I'll be hired, but through prayers, I made it.

So, new journey to take on Wednesday. Good luck to me...

Spectacle of Lights and Music

Just want to share some of the photos I took last Friday at Ayala Triangle. It's really Christmas.

Enjoy...

KFC Double Down Sandwich

I just tried the Double Down Sandwich today. Tastes just fine. Kapag inulit-ulit, nakakaumay siguro kasi masyadong oily yung chicken, plus may bacon pa. Medyo bitin kasi hindi naman ganun kalakihan. Mahal, kasi P100 na. Sa una, hindi nakakahiyang, pero baka next time, I won't buy it anymore. I 'll just buy chicken with rice na lang siguro para mas sulit at para mabusog.

Reminder: Don't eat it ng mainit na mainit pa kasi you won't enjoy it.

Pilipinas, Kay Ganda

You might have seen this in the news. What's wrong with Pilipinas, Kay Ganda?

I actually like it. I don't think na wala itong dating like what others are saying. Kung ako ang taga-ibang bansa na makakarinig nito, I'll be intrigued. Ano bang ibig sabihin ng Kay Ganda? But I don't need to worry. May translation naman. Kung napa Wow tayo sa Philippines dati, now, we can really say na Kay Ganda talaga ng Pilipinas. Why don't we add 'nga'? Pilipinas, Kay Ganda Nga. Mas mukha bang may dating? Hehehe.

Foreigners who will come here will not just appreciate the beauty of our country but they will also learn our language, aside from the most common na 'Mahal Ko Kayo.' Isn't it nice? Instead of saying "Mahal Ko Kayo', Pilipinas, Kay Ganda na lang ang maririnig natin. Prinopromote pa nila ang bansa natin. Amazing!!!

KFC Double Down Sandwich

It's really here. The New KFC Double Down Sandwich. Looks yummy and delicious. Have you tried this already?

I haven't tried it yet, but I will...

Makapag CRUISE nga!!!

Pwede na rin palang mag cruise dito sa atin. Ma-experience nga!!!

Ang Pera na Hindi Bitin

I came across this book sa Philippine Christian Bookstore yesterday at SM Lipa. I was bored, so I decided na mag-ikot ikot muna sa mall. Tiyempo namang napadaan ako sa bookstore na ito. Wala naman sa plano ko na bumili ng libro since wala pang benta, magbrowse-browse lang, yun lang ang dapat kung gagawin. Pero nung makita ko ang librong ito, I was intrigued. Parang tugmang-tugma sa akin. Dati ko pa kasing pangarap na mag-ipon ng pera, kahit nung medyo sagana pa sa pera dahil malakas ang benta, pero ewan ko, kapag andyan na ang pera, hindi ko magawang maipon. Wala naman akong nabibiling mamahaling bagay, malakas lang siguro akong kumain. So I read the first few pages muna at sakto, nahook agad ako, parang isda na nahook sa bulateng nakapain sa kawil. Swerte namang napakamura ng librong ito, so kahit wala sa budget, binili ko na, singkuwenta pesos lang naman ang halaga, hindi naman ganun kamahalan.

Right after I bought it, ayun na, tuloy-tuloy na, wala ng katapusan sa pagbabasa. Bagamat hindi ko kilala ang sumulat, nakakatuwa na napakasimple ng mga techniques na shinare nya para makatulong sa mga taong kagaya ko na nais mag-ipon, na minsan kinakakapos o minsan ok lang. It took me more than an hour to finish the book, hindi naman siya ganun kakapal at medyo malalaki rin ang text kaya mabilis ko siyang natapos. At higit sa lahat mabilis maintindihan kasi tag-lish, tagalog-english (hehehe). Maganda rin kasi may illustration, so kung gusto mong tumawa, pwede mong pagmasdan muna sandali ang ibang illustration na nasa libro.

Simple techniques lang ang shinare na author pero makabuluhan. Though yung ibang mga techniques eh nabasa ko na sa ibang libro, maganda na narefresh ang aking memorya sa mga dapat kung gawin para maging successful sa pag-iipon. The author shared seven strategies on how to best manage your money. Sa una, medyo hindi ako sumasang-ayon sa ibang mga shinare nya, parang ang hirap gawin, lalo na kung lagi kang kapos, (lagi ba akong kapos, puro kasi kain) pero kung seryoso ka talaga na magtagumpay, marerealize mo na tama nga naman siya at narealize ko naman yun.

The good thing about this book is parang nangungusap lang sakin ng harap-harapan ang may akda. Mabilis akong nakarelate sa mga sinabi nya at mabilis ko naman naintindihan ang konteksto na nais niyang ipahiwatig. Seven simple techniques na hopefully, maiapply ko sa buhay ko para naman maging successful din ako. Mayaman, mahirap, o kahit sobrang yaman mo, this book is a good read, hindi naman kasi porke't mayaman ka na, habang-buhay ka nang magiging mayaman. Maaari rin na maghirap ka, pero sana naman eh huwag mangyari. Hindi lang sa pagmamanage ng pera ka may matutunan, somehow, you'll relationship with God will improve also kasi may mga konteksto rin na hango sa bibliya na nais iparating ang may akda. Tama nga naman na lahat ng bagay sa mundo, may purpose si God kung bakit natin nararanasan ito. Pwedeng broke tayo ngayon, pero hindi naman habang-buhay, hahayaan tayo ni God na maging ganito. Basta matututo tayo kung paano natin imamanage ang kahit na napakaliit na bagay na pinagkakaloob ni God sa atin, sooner or later, magbabago ang lahat. We will soon thank God kung bakit niya hinayaan na mangyari sa atin ang mga bagay na ito. Naks, ang drama.

After reading this book, medyo, napaisip ako, tama nga naman ang may-akda. Nawa'y maiapply ko sa buhay ang mga naibahagi niya sa akin.

If you want to read this book, available siya sa Philippines Christian Bookstore. Meron naman siguro dyan sa Manila. Huwag na kayong pumunta sa Lipa, nagkataon lang na nandito ako sa Lipa kaya dito ko siya nabili. Murang-mura lang. Dalawang McSavers lang sa McDO, isang Jolly Spaghetti na may regular Coke sa Jollibee, kalahati ng PM2 sa Mang Inasal, (nga pala, binili na ng Jollibee ang Mang Inasal, kaya Jollibee na ang may ari ng Mang Inasal, kasama na ang Greenwich, Chowking at Red Ribbon) hmmm... Basta, singkwenta pesos lang naman. Pero kung mahal para sa inyo ang singkwenta pesos, pwede nyo itong hiramin sa akin, o kung gusto niyong bilhin, mas mabuti, bigyan pa kita ng diskwento, limited offer lang ito. Kwarenta'y otso na lang kung bibilhin nyo sa akin. (hehehe) Sabihan nyo lang ako. :)

The Lost Symbol

I've been dying to read this book. It's Php 250 now, paperback lang yun. Why I am not buying it yet? Tsk tsk tsk...

Paranormal Activity 2

I have seen Paranormal Activity 1. Didn't get scared. (because I've watched it in the afternoon with the door wide open. Hehehe) Hopefully, this one will scare me. :)

Oil Spill

Once a major attraction, now, this ship is bringing oil spill along the shorelines of Pagudpod. Hope they can do something before this brings a major problem in the tourism industry of Pagudpod.

I was there last April. Amazing Pagudpod. Hope I can come back again.

Canon 550D

Look at that. Isn't it amazing. When can I have you?

Tara Let's Eat...

How I wish I could replace Tonipet Gaba in Tara Let's Eat even for just one episode. Traveling to different places, visiting different restaurants and of course, devouring on all delicious food these places and restos have to offer.

What a wonderlife life it would be if this dream will come true.

Piranha 3D, Resident Evil and The Last Airbender

Watching a movie is one way of relaxing for me. Whether at home, at the movie house, alone or with friends, it not only helps relax my tired mind and body but it also kills boredom and one way of utilizing time wisely.

Since I am always out of budget, I didn't get to watch a movie in the movie house these past months. But thanks to pirated DVDs, though illegal, and thanks to my brother who sometimes buy pirated too, I don't get left behind with what's latest and new. If there's an extra budget, I make it a point to go to Quiapo to buy the movie I want to watch.

While typhoon Juan poured heavy rains and brought strong winds to Cavite in Metro Manila last Tuesday, it didn't stop me from deciding to go home right after our last day exhibit in SM Rosario. After a week of poor exhibit in Rosario, what could be the best way of relaxing but to catch a glimpse of recent movies at home. When I got home, three new DVDs welcomed me with a blast. (hehehe, thanks to my brother)

Right after watching the 11:30 PM news, I decided to turn the DVD player and watched PIRANHA 3D. I didn't have a hard time choosing what to watch, Piranha 3D, Resident Evil Afterlife, The last Airbender. When I saw Piranha 3D. I immediately knew what I'll be watching.

(I am supposed to add the trailer from Youtube but I don't know how to do it so I just added the poster.)

The movie is about a prehistoric man-eating fish (piranha) that have been set free after an underground tremor. Now, this group of strangers have to work together to be able to avoid themselves from becoming victims of these prehistoric creatures. The movie stars Kelly Brook, Richard Dreyfuss, Elisabeth Shue and Ving Rhames, names I haven't heard before except Richard Dreyfuss.

I am not good in making movie review so I won't be talking much about the film. I had fun watching it, I enjoyed seeing people partying at the lake, even the lake itself was amazing. It may not be one of the best films I have seen, but it's a good watch. If you like blood, if you like tocino, then this is one you'll enjoy. Just stay focus until the ending, for it will shock you.

Yesterday, right after doing my laundry, I decided to watch Resident Evil After Life.
 

The story is about Alice's continues journey and battle with the Umbrella Corporation. After a virus infection that turns victims into the Undead, Alice has to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, getting unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead thats promises a safe haven from the Undead takes them to Los Angeles but when they arrive, the city is overrun by thousands of Undead and Alice and her comrades are about to step in a deadly trap.

If I have to choose between Piranha and Resident Evil, this one is much better. I enjoyed both, but I enjoyed most the action packed scene in Resident Evil. Every scene is a must watch. Mila Jovovich was amazing.

And last but not least, the Last Airbender. Not a good watch but good enough to kill boredom.

I can't say anything much. If you have time, try to catch these movies.

Ants

I made a poem about ANTS yesterday. Don't know why. I was inspired to write poem about them. Hope you'll like it.

ANTS

A new day begins, the sun is coming out

Here come the ants, working hand in hand

No matter how long they go, they will work it out

To make sure they will get, the food in the land.

No matter how heavy, the food they have to bring

They'll make sure it'll be home, avoiding any delay

Though they greet each other, they will keep on going

The food must be home, whatever others say.

The sun is out, rainy days are back

The ants are celebrating, for they get what they want

Enough food they need, before summer comes back

Ants are amazing, we can be like them if we want.

Nearing 6 months...

Congratulations to myself. One more month and I can add to my resume my work as Sales Agent or as Educational Consultant. Though my work is tiring, though I have always been complaining, still, I am thankful that at least, I am still here.

Don't know what will happen next. I want to try something new, I want to look for another job.

Whatever my decision will be, hopefully it will be for the best.

New leaders to lead our country...

A new phase has been begun for our country. Noynoy Aquino and Jojo Binay are officially the new President and Vice President of our country. At around 12 noon today, both Aquino and Binay sworn in that they will faithfully do their duties as the new leaders of our country.

With this new phase that our country is facing, hopefully these two new leaders will bring great improvements to our country. Hopefully, whatever they have promised to people, they will fulfill it and they will do their very best to become effective leaders of our country.

I may not be a big fan of Noynoy, I will be here here to support his government and all the good things he will hopefully do for our country.

To Binay, I hope whatever changes and improvements he brought to Makati, he'll continue doing it to our country.

Mabuhay ang Pilipinas.

law of attraction!!!

Things happen for a reason but if you want things to happen the way you want it to be, then you should start thinking and feeling that things will happen the way you want it to be. Huh? That's what the law of attraction says. But is it really true?

I am not a believer of this law, but I don't question the effect this law can give to others. If this law is working to some people, then believing isn't only necessary, actions are still important. I would rather believe that making actions for the things I want to happen will be more effective rather than just believing and doing nothing.

LABAN!!!

2010 na at kagaya nung sinabi ko nung 2009, magsisimula ang Laban pagdating ng 2010. Medyo nadelay, pero tuloy pa rin ang Laban. Laban para sa sarili, laban para tuparin ang pangarap, laban para maging matagumpay. LABAN!!!

Farewell Aunt Grace

My Tita passed away last January 5. She was hospitalized for 5 days due to pnuemonia and difficulty in breathing but these were already complications of her breast cancer, Stage 4. I am so thankful that at least before she died, I was able to show my love and concern for her. I was thinking, if I didn't leave her to pay for her CT Scan, would she still be with us?

Anyway, I know she's in good hands now. Everything has changed now. Life has still to move on, we have to move on. Thanks for everything Aunt Grace. You will always be remembered.
