Kalokohan 101

Ang mga nasa baba ay mga kasabihang walang kakwenta kwenta pero nakapagbibigay saya.ha ha

"di baleng tamad, hindi naman pagod!"

"ang lumalakad ng matuling...hinahabol ng bombay"

"ang pinoy na hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika.....lumaki sa ibang bansa"

"ang taong nagigipit...sa bading kumakapit"

"larawan lang ang kumukupas!....pwera na lang kung digital ang gamit!

"Kung kaya ng iba, IPAGAWA MO SA KANILA!"

"Aanhin mo ang gwapo kung mas malandi pa sayo?"

"Kapag may sinuksuk at walang madudukot, MAY NANDUKOT."

"Matalino man ang matsing,matsing pa rin."

"Aanhin mo ang MALAKING BAHAY, kung KATULONG KA NAMAN."

Confused





Last March 23, I was able to attend a short talk regarding PHOTOGRAPHY 101. At first, it was a no no to me, all I want is to escape the calls that day even just for an hour. I wouldn't thought that it would inspire me after all.

I know that it was Atty. Raymond Fortun who will conduct the talk but it doesn't have any matter to me, no excitement at all, in short walang dating.

As i entered the mezzanine floor, I saw him seating in front of his Apple Laptop with a luggage downside. I was amazed because way back in high school, I only see him in TV debating regarding plunder case for former President ERAP. That time I am not a fan and I definitely dislike him. Time goes on that I entered college, I haven't heard anything from him leading to forgot all story about him. Then I suddenly realized that maybe he shifted or should I say follow his heart. The life in Photography.

As the seminar began, our training manager introduces him to us by giving some personal information about him. To my surprise, I learned that he is now the no. 1 wedding photographer in the Philippines. I like him now. Immediately I became a fan. While he is telling stories of his experiences as a wedding photographer, I just realized that even a person who is a lawyer in profession can make a difference out of what his heart says. Like Mr. Fortun, I can't imagine if he will be my professor in college, most likely he is very strict and very disciplined, maybe I'll drop all my units with him :)) But to know that he has this other side of him, wow I can't help but to raise my hands off. Astig talaga. All his stories are inspiring mostly to those who are beginner and to those who wants to be a photographer even just for a hobby.

Why confused? Because after the talk, I want to pursue atleast a short course for photograpy, atleast basic, just to learn advance from what I currently have in my knowledge. I dont know where to start but I believed one thing to do is to buy first an SLR.

Anyway, thanks to CS Training and Quality for conducting a one of a kind stress buster activity.

Filipino, Be Smart!






I just want to share the email I received earlier regarding one best contender for our country's next leader

I have nothing against Senator Manuel Villar but I am not saying I'm his follower. With the information based on email, it says that he is morethan what we describe "RICH" or "BILLIONAIRE". Yes he is rich in all words in this heaven and earth because he did his best to be,however as I red the entire massage of email, one thing I noticed is that he can be like famous or even richest figure like Louis XIV of France, an American billionaire or a prince of Saudi. But, I was amazed that a man from Tondo before can own a Villa like the one in Farmville, he he he. And no other than Senator Manuel Villar of a 3rd world country, PINAS.

In my own views, theres nothing wrong owning a Mansions as long as those are declared. Well who knows anyway. But I believed that with his money, power, and influence, he can do big hands even without aiming a position in Executive Office. He can be legislator (as he is right now), an advocator of civic group or a volunteer man without anything in return. Many Filipino hunger for a complete meal everyday, many of them died because of poverty, I hope a man like him would help his countrymen to stop if not lessen these things. I believed that he's poor and humble beginning can inspired a lot of people to make the most of them. As he and his family live in a wealthy place, I hope it will extend to the people he will serve incase he won.

Anyway, I have no idea if I can still vote since I missed two consecutive elections. I'm a registered voter of Quezon City and I plan to vote this time to exercise my right. Still, I'm confused who to vote. I only have 3 choices, they are Manny V(because i was influenced by his adds), Noynoy Aquino (not corrupt..i hope so), and GIBO (because kuya Lucring, a cousin of mine and a die hard brgy captain of Dorol, pushing me to vote him..ha ha ha so shallow!)

Lol. As if naman my one vote will stand over a millions :))

Above are the images taken from his so called mansion located in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. A work of art and for others its like "heaven".

Someday It's Gonna Make Sense

I just wanna share one of my favorite song. It's from MLTR. Check it out

Life comes in many shapes
You think you know what you got
Until it changes

And life will take you high and low
You gotta learn how to walk
And then which way to go

Every choice you make
When you're lost
Every step you take
Has it's cause

[Chorus:]
After you clear your eyes
You'll see the light
Somewhere in the darkness
After the rain has gone
You'll feel the sun comes
And though it seems your sorrow never ends
Someday it's gonna make sense

Tears you she'd are all the same
When you laughed 'till you cried
Or broken down in pain

All the hours you have spent in the past
Worrying about
A thing that didn't last

Everything you saw
Played a part
In everything you are
In your heart

[Chorus:]
After you clear your eyes
You'll see the light
Somewhere in the darkness
After the rain has gone
You'll feel the sun comes
And though it seems your sorrow never ends
Someday your gonna find the answers

To all the things you've become(and all day down)
At your expense
Someday it's gonna make sense

After the rain has gone
You feel the sun comes
And though it seems your sorrow never ends
Someday it's gonna make sense
After the rain has gone
You feel the sun comes
And though it seems your sorrow never ends
Someday it's gonna make sense

I miss YOU


Happy Valentines everyone!

Urrgg.. can't imagine that this would be my second blog for this year..sigh! Sobrang tinatamad na talaga ako for no reason. I feel something unusual that I can't explain. I mean this past few days parang lutang lang ako and it's like I'm just going to the flow. Work..Home..work..home. Ofcourse nothings new to me.

I miss going out of town with my friends. I miss to hung out with them. I miss to talk never-ending stories. I miss going out at night and going home late if not doing so early the following day. I miss Eastwood City. I miss all of those things. Things that i can only do with Jerwin and Merwin. It's been an almost a year since the last time we hung out.

I want to get lost. I want to have an amnesia. I want to disappear in this existence. I want to feel unconscious knowing that i will be waking up again tomorrow or onwards nothing happen new to me. I want to change but I also want to bring back those times that I'm with them.

God damn all these things!

I miss you!

Wanna go back to Bohol...




It's almost a month since I made my last post on this blog. I have to work during holidays and after the busy Christmas break, I flew to Bohol for a short vacation and to attend my cousin's wedding as well.

Aside for helping the wedding preparation, I'm also busy thinking where to spend the entire days of my vacation.

First day of my stay in Bohol is so nakakapagod. I can't imagine that the day prior to my flight, i only have two hours of sleep. When I arrived to Tagbilaran Airport, all i want is to lay down in a soft with comforter bed located in a quiet and air conditioned room. He he he...it's like the bed is pulling my body going to the room elsewhere.

We arrived in my cousin's house at 8:00am. Unfortunately, hindi agad ako nakatulog for no reason. I have a high spirit that time. We talk a lot, kamustahan, kainan, and konting refresh to remove the stress in the city.

The wedding day has come and here again it's busy in every corner of the house, after the successful wedding celebration, I was able to met some of my never heard cousins and relatives. Sad but I wasn't recall their names after co'z I'm drunk that night..Ha ha ha..

I spent my remaining days in Balicasag island where the diving center in Bohol is located. I've been there thrice but this time is different co'z we stepped in the island to have brunch (breakfast-lunch). We took some pictures with great scenery that we wouldn't believed that the island has. After the Balicasag experience we proceed to Virgin Island. Same thing, same faces of the island catches my eyes. Two consecutive years i've been there and it never fails to amazed me. The island is God's gift. Given a chance to travel every year, I would still choose Bohol to be my no.1 spot. Well I love my own. My hometown. I love the people. I love it's simplicity. I love to go back to Bohol.
