NBA All-Star Weekend Starting Units

2008-01-26T00:36:00.000+08:00

Ah, at last. With 3+ weeks remaining before the world's greatest basketball show, the starting units for each coast has been finally released to the public and here are my unsolicited opinions with regarding to each star.

Eastern Conference

F – Kevin Garnett, Boston (33-7).
With the Boston Celtics leading the league (with their win/loss card), there is no wonder why KG should be a lock for a starting spot. He, together with the other two of the Cs' three-headed monster, has propelled last season's cellar dwellers to a become a force to be reckoned with.

F – LeBron James, Cleveland (23-18).
I hate LBJ. Really. But objectively, LBJ is also a lock for a spot after leading the NBA in scoring so far this season with 29.7 per contest. Let's say, Oscar Robertson has been incarnated.
C – Dwight Howard, Orlando (27-17). Dwight Howard is the most dominant center in the NBA. Shaq who?

G – Jason Kidd, New Jersey (18-24).
Although the Nets are 6 games behing .500, Jason Kidd should be given a heads-up since he is a legend himself. Even Jaworski shouldn't be written on the same page with Jason Kidd. (But I just did.)

G – Dwyane Wade, Miami (8-33).
2 seasons ago, the Heat are the NBA Champs. This season, they are 5 games behind NBA's most dysfunctional team, the New York Knicks. Which is a double-hammer fist to the nape. But fans will be watching for entertainment anyway.

Western Conference

F – Carmelo Anthony, Denver (25-16).
A man who shoots like a shooting guard, rebounds like a power forward and scoring prowess that keeps up with 4-time NBA Scoring Champ, Allen Iverson.

F – Tim Duncan, San Antonio (28-13).
In the back of my head, something tells me not to vote for Tim Duncan in the All-Star ballot. But the other back on the back of my head keeps on telling me that the All-Stars would be 7-feet emty without Tim Duncan.

C – Yao Ming, Houston (23-19).
I never really liked Yao Ming playing in the All-Star games. By paper, he really is one hell of a player but there is much drawback for the team he is playing for during the All-Stars. Remember, the All-Star game is nothing but for fun. Fun which includes up-and-down basketball with tons of highlight reels. Tyson Chandler, New Orleans (29-12) or Amare Stoudemire, Phoenix (30-13) deserves to start more than the Great Wall.

G – Kobe Bryant, L.A. Lakers (27-13).
Kobe Bryant-less All-Star Games? Are you telling me that the Philippines will be the richest country in the world by 12 noon tomorrow?

G – Allen Iverson, Denver (25-16).
As long as Tracy McGrady is not in the list, I'll take it whoever he may be. TMac is not the TMac every basketball fan knew when he is still playing for the Orlando Magic a la LeBron James. Since coming to the West, he has been hampered with injuries and rumors say that TMac will be coming off the bench for the next few weeks. It will just be righteous if he will not be starting for the West. Personally, I would choose Brandon Roy, Portland (25-17) because he is an overachiever and getting to play for the West will just be another testament for his overachievement credentials, or Chris Paul, New Orleans (29-12) because I know you know Chris Paul will be the likes of Jason Kidd, Steve Nash, or Gary Payton (of the yesteryears). Well, actually, Chris Paul already is.

I'll be posting my hula-whos for the reserves next week.

Pasingit na film reviews:
I am Legend. My policy for watching foregin films is never watch films with PG13 ratings. But out of curiosity, I just did. And you know what, I repented it. Big time. Will Smith is awesomely good. But the whole movie itself is more like shit. The film has way to many subplots (or did they just spent too much film reels on a single subplot?) and Francis Lawrence, Akiva Goldsman, David Heyman, Erwin Stoff, Akiva Goldsman, and Mark Protosevich got lost track of the time and had to finish it before 1:50:00 movie clock. So they packed a whole bunch of the climax and the ending in the last 10 mins. (3 stars: thanks to Will Smith)
National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Indeed, it was a good movie. But just like the first National Treasure, the ending is korni (Hero being hunted by the villain. Villain scares one of hero's kin. Kin tells a lie to hero to save him. Hero just knows very well. Hero and villain forced to help each other. Villain has a sudden change of heart and voila, the hero lives happily ever after). But, heads-up. Everything but the ending is good. I really liked it. (3.5 stars)

Love, Reign O'er Me - The Who/PearlJam

2008-01-24T21:09:00.000+08:00

Only love
Can make it rain
The way the beach
Is kissed by the sea
Only love
Can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers
Layin' in the fields

Love
Reign o'er me

Love
Reign o'er me
Rain on me
Rain on me

Only love
Can bring the rain
That makes you yearn
To the sky
Only love
Can bring the rain
That falls like tears
From all high

Love
Reign o'er me
Rain on me
Rain on me

Love
Reign o'er me
Rain on me
Rain on me

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spent apart alone
I need to get back home
To cool cool rain

I can't sleep and I lay and I think
The night is hot and black as ink
Woo Oh God I need a drink
Of cool cool rain

Love
Reign o'er me
Rain over me
Over me
Over me

Love
Reign o'er me
On me

Love...

DUI.

2007-12-08T23:49:00.001+08:00

I am a big -- huge -- Kiefer Sutherland fan. Kiefer Sutherland who?? Uh, the actor who plays the extremely amazing super anti-terrorist agent, Jack Bauer in the series "24."

He is currently incarcerated after a no contest to his second DUI in almost 15 months. He'll be locked up for 48 days -- DAYS. And I think it is just too much for him. Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan have been "jailed" for less then 24 hours. Combined. All because of dope and alcohol-related cases.

Oh, I get it. Kiefer Sutherland doesn't have a buck-naked picture circulating the net or a sex video under his belt. Stupid.

Dead?

2007-11-23T16:41:00.000+08:00

I was supposed to go back to Temps and Staffers Inc. this morning at 9am but I overslept. I woke up 11am and God damn it, I am 2 hours late. Plus another hour if I try to go there right after waking up. And another hour because I'll be arriving by 12noon and it will be their lunch break. 4 hours late. Anyway, I'll just fabricate something for an alibi. Thank goodness Roxanne helped me through it. Rox, a genius you are. I'll call Ms. Aura tomorrow morning for my excuse and I hope she won't be freaking out.

So.. am I dead? I so hope not.

Star-buried.

2007-11-18T22:38:00.000+08:00

*Ball talk. Anyone who is tired of us talking basketball, then you shan't read.

Stephon "Starbury" Marbury, the former phenom out of Coney Island, has been moved to a reserve role about a week ago.

Early in his both college and high school career, he is one of the most sought-after scoring point guards in the NBA. Despite his all-star (All-Star in 2001 and 3rd Team All-NBA in 2003) and veteran status (12 seasons, '96-'08), Marbury hasn't found a niche in the big league yet. Righteous, he plays good. He scores. He dishes. But team chemistry is always an issue. He has been surrounded by talent since entering the NBA. Kevin Garnett. Amare Stoudemire and Shawn Marion. Jamal Crawford, Zach Randolph, and Eddy Curry. Although his first two teams were slightly above par success stories, the most recent -- The New York Knickerboxers -- is nothing but disaster.

Is it his fault?

No.

Then whose?

Isiah Thomas. Yes, the legend himself. As the Knicks' General Manager, he traded a good part of the playoff Knicks team during the '03-2004 season for an often-disgruntled high scoring guard named Stephon Marbury and pulled some tricks off his libidous sleeves by acquiring players with "restricted free agent" status who recently garnered success with their teams by luring them with very high salaries and long term contracts. And btw, he acquired these top-gunners without thinking about team chemistry. Karma. Everything back-fired. The injury bug plagued them and crippled the GM's "dream team." Thomas, and his knack for well-known personalities, hired another top-of-the-line-club member, Larry Brown.

Larry Brown, who was known for his design to upset the LA Lakers during thier championship match, is a well-known mentor for team-oriented plays, tenacious defense, and team tranformation. But Brown himself is also a failure concerning teams with high-scoring point guards. Brown and Marbury clashed throughout the season leaving Thomas a decision to make. Who will he kick off in his team? Being an ass, he chose Marbury to stay and took over the coaching job. Thought he could change things around, he relied on Marbury so often and ended the season at the bottom of the team rankings, raking up more boos instead than cheers from their homecrowd.

After banging his head (I think), he decided to reduce the great 'ol point guard's role to nothing but a third-string point guard.

Still, Starbury coming off the bench for the second straight game, the Knicks has been showing the same old Knicks of 2004-2007 every basketball buff knows, pushovers.

It is not the team who is the problem right now. But the one who composed the team himself.

Babble part 2.

14 years ago.

Ang N64 ang inaasam-asam kong console unit.
Gameboy (black and white/pixel) ang pinakamagandang hand-held.
Tuwang-tuwa ako sa mga flying kick, mala-Max Payne na pag-iwas sa bala, at infinite na bala ng glock nila Rudy Fernandez, Bong Revilla, at Ronnie Ricketts sa kanilang mga pelikula.
Maligayang-maligaya na ako sa apat na channel sa telebisyon.
Nanonood pa ako ng Sailormoon dahil nagagandahan ako sa mga characters nito. (Sige, tawa, baka gusto mong upakan kita! Rarrr. Hahaha.)
Basta mapakinggan ko lang ang Ice, Ice Baby, napapasayaw na ako.
Ang simpleng bangko (wooden bench) ay nagiging all-around playground ko.
Ang bagong lapis at pambura ay isa nang ginto, maging ang mga bagong crayons at bag na amoy factory.
Wala ng makakagimbal ng mundo ko kapag palabas na ang FiveMan, MachineMan, si Richie Rich, ang Woody Woodpecker Show, si Popeye, ang BioMan, si Mask Rider Black, at maging si Kuya Bojie at ang buong Batibot barkada.

Ngayon.

Kung hindi ako makakatipa (tipa=pindot) sa keyboard ng aking PC kahit minsan lang sa isang linggo, magugunaw na ang mundo ko.
Kahit hindi ako mahilig sa cellphone, kailangang kong laging may dalang cellphone lalu't lalo na kung ako ay aalis ng bahay.
Hangga't maaari ay manonood ako ng isang foreign na pelikula kada buwan. Kung ito man ay gawang Pinoy, si FPJ at mga Martial Law-era films na lang ang inaabangan kong pelikula sa telebisyon.
Kahit anung channel pa yan, basta may sports -- mapa-baseball, American football, football, tennis, rugby, maging ang squash, sumo wrestling at cricket -- ay pinapatos ko na.
Kasuklam-suklam ang fact na nanonood ako ng Sailormoon noon.
May genre na akong sinusunod na pakinggan araw-araw at ang pagsayaw ay isa ding malaking kasalanan lalo na kung ito ay ipapagawa sa akin sa harap ng madaming tao.
Di sapat ang buong SM, Trinoma, Greenbelt, Gateway, at Alabang Town Center na playground.
Okay na sa aking ang bag ko na nangingitim na sa sobrang tagal na hindi nalalabhan; at least, napapatunayan kong original at maganda ang tatak nito. Wii. Yabang.
Ang TV ay isa na lang secondary past time. O kaya tertiary. Basta nakakahawak ako ng PC, nakakakain ng merienda, nanonood ng DVD (which is technically, hindi TV. Hehe.), nakakapag-basa ng any written media.

Hah. Habang tumatanda ako, dumadami yung mga bagay na nagpapadali sa buhay ko*. Pero kasabay nito ang pagiging materialistic ko*. Natin*.

Philippine Basketball League.

Philippines is undeniably a basketball country. Many minor and collegiate competitions have been set up to hone the skills of Philippines' uprising stars who, in the near future, will be representing our severely-handicapped (height-wise) to international shootouts. PBL, the #1 non-pro league in the country has gathered ballers with high potentials for the past years and has been training these PBA aspirants to be, yet again, players with potentials only. From my point of view, PBL superstars, as Chino Trinidad calls them, are nothing but a bunch of ball hoggers who rather make their own plays for themselves rather than doing what was sketched by almost-useless coaches on their whiteboards during huddles. Emulating the "rebound ko, dribble ko, shoot ko, mintis ko" sequence.

Starbucks.

"Tara, let's have our Starbucks," thus say somebody who wants his or her dose of caffeine. Then, the question lies, why is Starbucks that famous? Actually, I am a fan of coffee. A fan of caffeine. Yet, I haven't been to any Starbucks outlet yet but I already experienced the rush that Starbucks fans die for. It happened about a couple of years ago when I met a friend at SM Supermarket and she asked my to finish off her chino because she had to go somewhere else and she doesn't have enough hands to carry extra luggage, so I obliged. After having a sip, I exaggerately whispered to her, "*angin*, eto na ba yung limang daan mo?" I don't know what part of the cup I didn't like but at least I think I hate the way 'Bucks has been over-pricing because it is so damn famous. But I think I appreciate Seattle's Best. And dyk Seattle's Best is an affiliate of Starbucks? Wahaha. I'm so pathetic.

Davao Suicide Case.

I honestly think that it is (sorry for the term) stupid. The suicide thing is stupid. Why the hell did you craved for Grim's visit? Fine, you are freaking poor but there are others who are so poor they could almost die of hunger and yet, still hoping for another day. Meron ngang iba diyan, humahangad ng bukas para lang kahit paano ay magkaroon pa sila ng isa pang araw para man lang makahiling na magkaroon ng kahit ilang linggo lang na mabuhay. Whew. GDI.

Woah. Sorry. I am babbling again.

Irony.

2007-11-06T10:55:00.000+08:00

For the past few months, the peso has been considered to be on its strongest for the past 6-7 years. And P. Gloria Arroyo has been claiming that this is due to the Philippines' economic growth.

But wait, America itself is claiming otherwise. They claim that their dollar's value has been depreciating. Well, I so might agree with them. The dollar's value has been plunging due to the fact that America is borrowing around $2billion a day from other nations to sustain and maintain its living standards. A sinking dollar means a poorer nation, and a sinking currency has historically been the mark of a sinking country. And a superpower with a sinking currency is a contradiction in terms (Buchanan, 2007).

That is why the so-called strengthening of the peso is nothing but a fluke. And is actually giving headaches to dollar-earning Filipinos which were considered to be the #1 cause of the economic growth. Wooh, how ironic.

Philippines. We aren't out of the woods yet. Still in the deepest part of this green dense poverty.

**

Btw, China, the fastest growing country might as well overwhelm America in 5 years and so the power might shift to the east.

Ahh yes, hope is just a timezone away.

I grieve over Schulz' woes. Read article here. I cherished his strip since the first time I cherished Sunday broadsheets. It delivers me my first Sunday's, let's say, smile.

The strip.
Charlie Brown, the hydrocephalic not-so-famous-among-the-chicks boy, has oftenly rejected and regarded to be stupid by nonetheless, his lady love.

Charles Schulz.
Schulz believed that his mother abandoned him when he still was a kid. He hated being left out. He hated being alone. Sino ba nga namang gustong mapag-iwanan.

Segue.

I read Rick Olivarez' blog. Bleacher's Brew.
Who the hell is he? I really don't know. But I know for a fact that he is one of the athletic staff guys of Ateneo de Manila. I think he is a good example of a poor sports journalist. He has been relentlessly attacking the flaws of all collegiate teams not given a monicker of Blue Eagles. He also gives too much praises over those pre-heralded and those who have sweet-smelling resumes. He has a knack for praising the Jordans, LeBrons and the alike too much. Just too much. I don't know if he really keeps track of the league itself or just its famouses.
Wala lang. Basta, I hate the way he publishes his newsletters on his blog. Hah. There is just too much BLUE in it. And I really, really, really hate it. Too bad, it's written on a web journal. If only.. Rawr. I hope he changes his style to a more unbiased, not hype-influenced one.

The scenario:
She is a seatmate and you told her almost everything written from your biography but you have only seen her for a total of 12 hours. And she called you just a mere 48 hours ago (and just 4 hours after knowing your number) asking you to court her?

Btw, she's damn charming and nice.

I saw Spiderman3.

It was not that good. Tama si Benzon, abusive masyado ang Spiderman3 sa CGI technology.

Siguro dahil sa hype at popularity lang ng Spiderman kaya nag-gross pa din sila ng $150M sa first week.

Anyhow, parehas din siya sa ilang episodes ng Powerpuff Girls. Powerpuff Girls pinagtulungan ng lahat ng villains na natalo na nila. Tag-team. Sandman + Venom style. In the end, patay yung villain-turned-hero na tumulong sa bida. Talo yung tag-team nung dalawang pangit na kontrabida.

I'll spend my time finding out why you're so special.

Really didn't think it could.

And there's nowhere else in the world I’d rather be
Than here with you it's perfect
It's all I ever wanted
I almost can't believe that it's for real

Really didn't think it could
Do it again?
I know we should!

The sun is up
I’m so fizzy I could burst!
You wet through and me headfirst
Into this is perfect
It's all I ever wanted
Ow! It feels so big it almost hurts!

Never guessed it got this good
Wondered if it ever would
Really didn't think it could
Do it some more?
I know we should!

Say it will always be like this

It is NBA's last week for the season and up for grabs are individual distinctions given by, of course, the league itself. But no less, I still am going to give my predictions on who will win what.

I feel like doing so because I am currently listening to Mariah Carey's Always Be My Baby. LOL

** ** ** ** **

All-NBA 1st Team:

C - Yao Ming
After missing many games mid-season, he still proves he is good enough to dethrone the most dominant force among centers. Yes, you read it right. He is now ready to take over Shaquille O'Neal. After avaraging 25 pts/g 9 rebs/g 1 blk/g 60 fg%, since coming back from injury, why would he be denied of the title anyway?

PF - Dirk Nowitzki
Haier Race to MVP's (NBA.com) MVP. Enough said.

SF - LeBron James
Fine, I am an LBJ-hater. But after carrying the Cavs to the playoffs this season avaraging 27 pts/g 7 rebs/g 6 asts/g, he sure is a monster. A stat sheet-stuffer.

SG - Kobe Bryant
After scoring 50pts or more 10 times this season, he really is one hell of an offensive machine. But, aside from scoring, he too has proved he can pass and distribute the rock. He, too, is a nasty defender. Aves: 31 pts/g 5 rebs/g 5 asts/g 1.5 stls/g.

PG - Steve Nash
This cerebral guard is special for the Phoenix Suns. He is NBA's 2-time MVP and should be in this list. Don't ask me why. You should know.

**

All-NBA 2nd Team

C - Dwight Howard
He is the future. One of few atheltic big men who can score, rebound, play defense, and pretty much, intimidate everybody. He is having a career season this year and has helped the Orlando Magic reach the playoffs this year.

PF - Tim Duncan
I still consider TD a power forward since he is a natural PF. Although his averages are a bit below par this season, he does a little bit of everything. Big Fundamental has really proven that the Spurs will not make it to the playoffs smoothly without him. Remember last season. He has been injured most part of it and the Spurs struggled with their record, although they had a 50+-win last season, most wins come from games won by 6 points or less.

SF - Josh Smith
Oh come on, J Smoove is one hell of a player doing everything. And I mean everything. Who would have ever thought of this 6foot-9 235pounder can score, rebound, pass, intercept passes and reject shots. Yes he really does those. He also almost had a triple-double this year but he got short by a point (His first one was last year, 10-10-10, 10points-10rebounds-10BLOCKS). His near triple-double this year was 9points, 17rebounds, 14assists. Too bad he was not invited to this season's All-Star festivities since he is, for me, an all-star. Just maybe, the Atlanta Hawks has a poor record and is unlikey for them to have 2 all-stars. Just watch out for him next season.

SG - Vince Carter
VC15 has came alive rejuvinating the old VC15 this season. He has battled teammate Jason Kidd on triple-doubles this season, trailing JK5 by 10. Carter has taken alot of game-winners and has been the go-to-guy for the Nets when Richard Jefferson went down with an injury early this season.

PG - Chauncey Billups
With the departure of defensive monster-center Ben Wallace and coach Larry Brown and the arrival of forward-turned-center Chris Webber and Flip Saunders, the Pistons was transformed into a fire-till-open offensive-defensive team hence, giving Chauncey Billups more opportunities scoring. He, too, is Motown's barometer. When he's down, so as the team. He wouldn't probably given the nickname Mr Big Shot if he is not.

**

All-NBA 3rd Team

C - Marcus Camby
NBA's leader in shot-blocking with 4 per contest. He is, according to Ahmad Rashad, best center on going down against other team's transition game.

PF - Chris Bosh
Actually, I am supposed to put here Carlos Boozer but Chris Bosh has lifted this team to its first playoffs appearance since Bosh was in 2nd year high school. A year before being discovered by Virginia Tech (yeah, the university who just took bloodbath yesterday)

SF - Josh Howard
My dad will surely be mad at me when he reads this, if he'll be able to read this. Anyway, my dad is a Melo fan. I commend Melo for staying put at top scorer's list alongside Allen Iverson (Melo + AI1 = highest scoring duo in NBA @ 55 points per contest). But Josh Howard has stepped up his game not by scoring too much but by grabbing rebounds (upping his average by 4 per game) and adding an additional steal per contest this season.

SG - Tracy McGrady
TMac has stepped up in the absence of Yao Ming during mid-season. He also proved that he is also a good passer by dishing out 7 asts/g this season. Also, a scoring machine as he has always been by scoring 40, 27, 32, 25 and 39 points in his last 5 games this week (before I posted this).

PG - Deron Williams
He has proven he has matured and has improved his decision-making. Before this season, Andrei Kirilenko, the Russian rifle, has been the leading assist man for Jerry Sloan's team with 5 asts per game, a career average. Too bad, AK47 has his poorest showing in his entire career by averaging a career-low 11 pts/g 6 rebs/g 3 ast/g this season. Williams is now averaging 16 points and 8 assists this season. He has helped Utah Jazz its best season since the departure of the Mailman, Karl Malone and his sidekick, John Stockton.

I just checked my Salary Cap Manager recently and I leapfrogged from 67th position to 48th in a league of 150 managers. A feat my team made within 2 days. That was an incredible 19 gained spots.

Good thing I sold my All-Star Dirk Nowitzki to give salary space for Dwight Howard, Gerald Wallace, Kevin Martin and Paul Milsap.

**Alex: Details? Next post.

10:30am
DOTA. Talo. Upset yun. Seryoso.
12:45pm
Start ng trip. Jeepney to Lawton. Central LRT Station to Pedro Gil Station.

1:15pm
Sumakay na kami ng bus to Laguna. Wala pang 15 mins, hinold kami ng isang traffic enforcer along Buendia yata yun. Buti na lang may magic Php100 yung driver kaya tuloy yung biyahe. Mga 15 mins din kami naghintay dun.

2:30pm
Nasa Laguna-Batangas boundary na kami. Bumaba na kami before mag-Turbina terminal. Sumakay kami ng jeep to Pansol.

2:45pm
Nasa Chowking kami kaya naglunch na kami. Hinintay din namin yung classmate namin na nagpareserve nung resort.

3:15pm
Dumating na yung nagpareserver at bumili din muna kami ng mga needs na hindi namin naisipang dalhin. Toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, drinking water, maraming Boy Bawang, at syempre ang Php38-worth na egg crackers na up to now di pa din namin alam yung Tagalog nun.

3:30pm
Bumpy ride papunta sa resort. Ayus. Isang buong subdivision na puro provate pool at resort. Kawawa lang yung isa kong classmate kasi ano. Secret na muna. Kasi nga bumpy diba. E cramped pa kami sa 2 trike. 10 kami. Ayus yun.

3:45pm
May nabangga yung trike na sinasakyan namin. E kasi umaambon na nun, e tapos nasa 60 kph yung trike. E nung magbbrake sya kasi may sasakyan na magcocross ng highway, dahil sa law of inertia, nabangga pa din kami sa isang kotse pero OK lang. Buhay pa naman kami.

3:55pm
Nasa harap na kami nung nirent na resort. Ayus may resort din dun sa labas nung resort. May baha. E maraming crevices nung daan, muntik pa kaming ma-part2 nung nangyari samen ni Alex nung HS.

4:00pm
After 5 mins ng paghanap ng daan para di mabasa paa namin, nakapasok na kami sa haunted poolhouse na mura nga pero scary. Pero syempre ready-to-swim na kami kasi basa na din kami sa ulan na mukhang galit na galit kasi dumating kami.

4:15pm
Nakapagpalit na kami ng damit, actually nagbold pala. Pero bago swimming, nagMagic muna. Muntik pa nga kaming bumalik sa Engg pav kasi parang Magic tourney lang yung nangyayari ng first 45 mins e.

5:00pm
Wala ng ulan. Swimming na din kami. Sarap ng hot spring water na nasa pool. Maliit lang yung pool. Siguro mga nasa 30 by 20 feet lang pero ok na yun since 10 lang kami na kinagulat ng caretaker kasi first time lang daw nya makakita ng nagrent ng resort na yun na 10 lang. Record-breaker. Sheesh.

6:00pm
Napag-usapan yung mga "add-ons" nung offer ng bahay. Bale add daw kami ng 1k, may libreng 3 babae. At seryoso yun. Di na kami nag-add kasi tig-600 lang yung budget ng marami samen. Kasama na ako dun. Chaka madami kaming alibi. Baka 60 years old na yun kaya mura. May STD. Baka taga-UST din na walang pangtuition. Baka anak nila na binubugaw tas undercover agent pala ng NBI tas after ng bayaran ay ded kami. Or baka dating lumuluhod lang yung mga yun, tas ngayon tumutuwad na? Basta dapat gets nyo na yan. Malaswa e.

7:00pm
Dinner. Kanin na siguro ay good for 4 people lang na pinagsaluhan ng 10 tao na capacity ng 20 na baka + 20 pcs ng adobong sugpo + 2 chicken + 10 fresh mangoes + 4 na balot ng adobo flavor na Boy Bawang. Yun ang dinner.

7:10pm
At long last, dumating na yung videoke machine.

7:45pm
May nag-aaway sa tutong ng kanin. Ayus. Krisis sa kanin.

8:00pm
May nagswimming. May nagvideoke. May nagvivideoke din sa kabilang resort. Nung kumanta na yung isang kaklase ko, kinatyawan sya na mababa daw. Edi di naman namin sinakyan kasi babae yun. Napansin din namin na all girls sila sa kabilang bakod. Wala lang. Kumanta yung classmate ko na anak ni Gary Granada. Panis.

9:00pm
Wee. Red Horse. Wee. + 4 na balot ng Boy Bawang + 2 balot ng DingDong.

12:00mn
Nagshower/nagset na ng bed yung iba. 3 yung kwarto. Bale 3/3/4 yung hati. 3 kami sa kwarto, naging 6 kami. Kasi yung 4, either nagsswimming pa or nagvivideoke. E diba nga haunted house-like nga yung bahay. Alam na.

12:30am
Magic all the way ulet.

1:30am
Wala ng nagmaMagic. Bored na yung iba pero wala pang inaantok. May isa pa din nagvivideoke samin. Aba teka, di lang babae may chizmax to the max session sa mga overnight. Kami din meron. Hahaha.

2:00am
Bumigay na din si videoke master. Nakichika na din. Naghunt ng chikas sa kabilang resort kasi ayus yung terrace sa 2nd floor e. Nakaharap sa likod ng bahay, over-looking sa pool, shower room, videoke room ng kabilang resort.

3:00am
Malamok kaya balik sa kwarto. Chizmax ulet.

3:30am
Videoke featuring Sandara Park at Santa Claus. Di naman lasing kaklase ko kasi di siya uminom pero In or Out at 12 Days of Christmas ang kinanta niya. With matching Ati Cu Pung Singsing pa yan.

4:00am
Natulog na kami.

5:10am
Ginising na kami nung kaklase naming nagpareserve ng resort sa pamamagitan ng flickering flash bulb. Effective.

6:00am
Nakasakay na kami ng bus to Lawton.

7:00am
Lawton

8:00am
Bahay. Tulog.

2007-03-02T01:56:00.000+08:00

It's almost 2am and I just finished reviewing for my Computer quiz tomorrow, no, later.
I hope I'll pass this one. I badly need to get this.

**

Since 12.30 am, I've been buffering Daydream Cycle's Roses and Cadillacs at YouTube.com and I just finished it 10 mins ago. It's worth the wait, though.

Just for the record, I am connected to the Internet for (according to my connection status) 5hours, 40+mins already. It's been long long ago since I've done something like this. Online module stuff. Noelle, thanks again.

**

That's all for now. My head aches. I hope I could answer that 2-question exam.

I wish I could say all the things that I should say. Say I'm loved, say I'm free for the whole wide world to hear. I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart. LSS.

Dirty Politicking and an FEU Coed.

2007-02-25T06:27:00.000+08:00

Wednesday. It was the eve for election of ChES (Chemical Engineering Society) officers. They had their campaign-con-debate on Lab9, Chemistry Lab. It was as boring as ever. Same platforms, just different faces. Campaign, campaign and campaign. Then, the open forum.

Oh, btw, there were two parties. The administrations and the leftists. Who would have ever thought that in college, that there would be a political rivalry. The admins was of course, composed by incumbents endorsed by the current president. Protocol maybe. Basics? Whatevs. The leftists. They are bacause they are. They hate the current administration and of the past. Actually, the president of the leftist group was the only one who hated the current. He might just had a hate campaign against the current so that he could gather up minions.

Forum.
Current President: Bat nyo naisipang tumakbo?
Leftist President: Para magkaroon ng pagbabago sa bulok na sistema ng ChES.
CP: Wala na bang ibang paraan para magbago kahit di ka tumakbo?
LP: Wala namang nakikinig saken e. Wala ding pagbabago sa executive office ng ChES.
CP: Ediba, ikaw ang Vice Chair ng Publicity Committee ng ChES? Edi bulok ka din pala?
(tension: up. everyone: quiet. party members [both]: shit, tangina oo nga no. emotions: very very high)
LP: E wala namang nakikinig saken e. Since freshman year ko nagvovolunteer na ako para tumakbo pero wala namang kumukuha saken.
CP: You answered my question nice and clear.

Patay na. Kaya pala sya tumakbo. Grudge? Personal reasons? Pagbubuhat ng sariling upuan. Para pogi syempre. Pampabango nga naman sa transcript yun.

Di pa tapos yan.

As the forum, goes on, harder questions are being thrown to each other by both parties. Chiz Escudero - Mike Defensor story. Kawawang mic. Microphone. Every question, hinahampas sa table. Pagka nakasagot na, ihahampas ulet sa table.

PHILIPPINES: BEHOLD, THE FUTURE OF OUR POLITICS.

Yesterday, was one of my oddest days. Uh, well, evening I suppose.

I left school 6pm and had my ride home by 7pm. Of course, typical rush hour. There was this FEU coed that took my attention. She's petite yet charming (READ: maganda). She's just my type. Yes, you've heard (read, I mean) it right. We took the same FX and just as everyone SHOULD do, I opened the door for her (we took the backseats). Eventhough I saw and came to the FX first, I let her have her seat first. Style kasi yun e.. LOL.

She took flight when we reached a place between Banawe and Sto. Domingo. Again, I opened the door for her. Before she got down, she thanked me. No biggie. But amongst all other, her heels caught up with a hole on the bumper. Damn FX. She was grimacing in pain. She might have twisted her ankle. I helped her with her heels and again, she thanked me. Again, it was no biggie. Before closing the doors (agian), I saw her kind of limping. I asked the driver to stop the FX so I could go down. I ran to Ms. Petite and walked her to the nearest tricycle terminal. She was so thankful for the 3rd time. She gave me her name. Carissa. Nice name huh. She asked me mine. Francis.

Not yet finished though.

For that moment, I felt guilty. Knowing her name wasn't a crime, I know. But I remembered someone named Raisa. Hehe. She too gave her name first before asking mine. Going back to Carissa, she asked me my number since she saw me texting someone before. I gave no answer. Then she said she'll just give her's to me. I told her, I'm sorry, I can't. Uhm, OK. Bye. Bye. See you soon. You too. Thanks again, thanks very much.

My pride and ego then was off the charts. It was a missed opportunity yet I know not being together yet and meeting someone who wanted to be friends with you was a test.

Loyal ka talaga.

The Heart's Day

Yesterday, I wrote a draft for today's post. Sadly, I wrote there I am not going to write anything about Valentine's Day.

Good thing, it was just a draft.

Friends, I am proud to tell all of you that I just had my happiest-est 6 hours of my almost-19 year career as a human being.

Uh, well yes, I've been liking and loving you more and more each day. Thank God, Earth will still rotate and revolve for the next 2 milleniums.

Life Path: 5
For complete numerology, click here.

5 (5, 14/5, 23/5, 32/5)
The Life Path 5 suggests that you entered this plane with a highly progressive mindset, with the attitude and skills to make the world a better place. The key word for your Life Path is freedom. In the pursuit of freedom, you are naturally versatile, adventurous, and advanced in your thinking. You are one of those people who is always striving to find answers to the many questions that life poses. The byword for the positive Life Path 5 is constant change and improvement. You want to be totally unrestrained, as this is the number most often associated with the productive use of freedom.

You may be one of the most compassionate of people as the 5 is surely the most freedom-loving and compassionate Life Path. Your love of freedom extends to humanity at large, and concern for your fellow man, his freedom and his welfare, may be foremost in your mind. A great Life Path 5 American President, Abraham Lincoln, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, and ended slavery in America. As the ultimate progressive thinker type, your potential in government, the law, and other positions of authority is unlimited.

You are a good communicator, and you know how to motivate people around you. This may be your strongest and most valuable trait. Because of this skill, and your amazing wit, you are a truly natural born salesman. This ability to sell and motivate extends to any sort of physical product all the way through to whatever ideas or concepts you may embrace.

You abhor routine and boring work, and you are not very good at staying with everyday tasks that must be finished on time. On the average, the number 5 personality is rather happy-go-lucky; living for today, and not worrying too much about tomorrow. It is also important for you to find a job that provides thought-provoking tasks rather than routine and redundant responsibilities. You do best dealing with people, but the important thing is that you have the flexibility to express yourself at all times. You have an innate ability to think through complex matters and analyze them quickly, but then be off to something new.

A love of adventure may dominate your life. This may take the form of mental or physical manifestation, but in either case, you thrill to the chance for exploration and blazing new trails. Surely you belong to a group considered the most worldly and traveled. Clearly you are not one to pass up a good venture. You have quite a lot of the risk-taker in your makeup. If you aren't putting your money at stake, you are surely open to a wide variety of risks in your everyday life. Taking the conservative approach is just not in your nature.

In romance, you hate to be tied down and restricted. This doesn't necessarily mean that you are unfaithful or promiscuous, but it does mean that a good partner for you needs to understand your nature. A relationship based on jealousy and having tight reigns is not going to work at all for you. A partner who understands your need to be free and trusted will find you trustworthy, even if you aren't constantly available and totally dutiful. It is important for you to mix with people of a like mind, and to try to avoid those that are too serious and demanding.

If you are living on the negative side of the Life Path 5, you are apt to be multitalented, but suffering from some lack of direction, and there is confusion surrounding your ambition. Restless, discontent, and impulsive, you may bounce from one job to the next without accomplishing much at all. A negative Life Path 5 can become very irresponsible in tasks and decisions concerning the home and business life. The total pursuit of sensation and adventure can result in your becoming self-indulgent and totally unaware of the feelings of those around you.

If I fell in love with you,

would you promise to be true

Okay, a month later, a new entry. Woohoo.

As usual, there's nothing new except the year.. but I think there is.

One week, I felt that studying was my thing. And another week, I knew I was just making a fool out of my self. But hell, it felt good studying. I am not joking even that was an LMAO statement or it sounds like G sharp of the C major. Oh, I just wish I won't have a failing subject this sem.

Anyway, I was (and currently am) enjoying myself playing in a fantasy league. NBA Salaray Cap Manager. Haven't heard of it? It is just like drafting 6 players from the NBA and getting high scores depending on the players' stats on the game night. These 6 players must not go beyond $36M salary cap. Easy as it sounds? No. Must be updated on player injuries, coach-player relationships, bench rotations, the team that your player's real-time team will be against with. It's just like trying to be Rick Kamla yourself.

Fantasy freaks, here is my roster. Non-freaks, you are now free to check on your Friendster. Hehe.

Currently, my team roster includes Jarrett Jack (G, Portland TBlazers), Ray Allen (G, Seattle SSonics), Luke Walton (F, LALakers), Josh Smith (F, Atlanta Hawks), Carlos Boozer (C, Utah Jazz), Tyson Chandler (6th, New Orleans Hornets).

Hehe. I hope this team would bring me to a real-time NBA Finals Game.

**

Enough of those. My prelims are on this week so please pray for me. I need every help I could gather.

**

Oh, btw, I'll be having a real haircut next weekend. Hah. It ahs been 8 months since having a real one.

Chei Espiritu -- 2nd Entry

2006-12-11T21:42:00.000+08:00

Folks, here I go again.

She's oh-so-cute. Cute is an understatement, I suppose. Who wouldn't admire her? Sayang. Barely have a chance knowing her more. Hehe. Anyway, admirations are admirations. Nobody can't stop me from cherishing her splendor. Haha.

But it still is Raisa, my butterfly.

Yak ang korni. Shut up, malarkey!

**

Ang ganda talaga ng Band of Brothers. Idol ko na si Richard Winters.

Christmas break: I'll push myself on having my own copy of 24 Seasons 1-5. Hehe. Inggit ako kay Pepi. Namamarathon nya si Jack Bauer. Huhu.

Christmas Wishlist
Regina Spektor compilation.
Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman [Haruki Murakami]
2gb Flashdisk.

**

This would be my last entry for the year. So, see you guys next year. I will surely be posting one early next year. Promise.

One thing more. I might (read: MIGHT) be changing my layout. I've been working on the new layout for about half a year and I still can't seem to figure out what went wrong to it. The tables are scattered everywhere. And I mean everywhere.

Haha.

Stir lang yun haha.

Pero, cute sya.

BENZON: pagtawanan mo na ako. Haha.

Masama to, ginawan ko pa siya ng entry.

Haha. Anyway, Raisa is still worth bleeding-myself-dry for.

John is a great man. Though sometimes show signs of immaturity.

Affection is too powerful. Just too powerful. It clobbers any prinsipyo your ass keeps for you.

It struck me when Aimz came. All those sweet boohoos. Hah.

Yes, I was in love with Aimz a year ago but I was given a set of friends on which I am more in love with.

It's just a matter of who, when and where.

Anyway, we all knew who the REAL John is.

Hah. Praise me for getting myself a copy of Mr Big's Greatest Hits compilation. I tell you, this one is a steal.

September..
Horrible. After a week off from school, ayan na naman. Practice almost everyday para lang sa finals ng Social Dance. Good thing, nagpay-off naman yung ng 1.25. Hah. Praises to our group's cha cha cha instructor. And it was ME. Beat that. Promise next sem, no more dance-related-PE. For everybody's info, 2 crush ko sa group. Haha. Yung isa nasa previous post ko, yung 2nd bale inabsorb namin siya from a dissolved group. Nosebleed-worthy yung body. Haha. Yun nga lang, taga-AB siya, may boyfriend and most of all, graduating na siya. Aww naww. Haha. Di mo nga iisipin na 4th yr na yun kasi she's 5 inches shorter than me. Edi mukang nene yun. Haha.
September..
I think I failed yet again 2 make-or-break quizzes and once again, I am doomed. Hello tri-sem. Goodbye Engineering. Hello Conservatory. Hah.
September.. Onga pala, part pala ako ng mga nastun sa Araneta nung Game1. Masakit yun. Dagger.

October..
Nice, nice way to start the month. Win a championship. I tell you, pahirapan yung tickets. Isipin nyo, Php25-worth of a general admission seat would cost around a thousand bucks. Good thing malakas akong mambola ng mga scalper kaya natwaran ko siya ng Php600. Syempre may halong kaba pa yun kasi nga jinx ako sa UST games. Before watching that final game, I have been watching UST's games 13 times already but without a win. Next year, makikita nyo ulit ako sa Araneta, either UAAP or NCAA, yun nga lang scalper na din ako. It's easy cash e. Bat ba. $_$

**

(changes mood)

October..
I am missing her. I haven't talked to her in person since that pav incident. How long was that? Maybe 2 months ago. It is bullshit.
I know I'll fail my CCP courses if I continue day-dreaming about the pav incident. But. It is what I need to give myself some boost.

It is you. You who I need.

(reminiscing)

May..
Friend: Ay kups. Bilisan mo kaya. Kaw lang din kelangan nun.
Ako: Tae. Dami-dami dyan. 'Bat pa ako. Anu ba ako sa kanya. Baka nga kaklase lang tingin sakin nun e.
F: Sira. Sayo lang yun naging open. Chaka mas madami akong alam kesa sayo. Sabay kaming umuuwi nun kasi parehas kami sa LRT sumasakay kaya madami akong alam sayo at sa kanya.
A: E baka naman sabi mo lang yan. Isa pa, irreg ako sa mga panahon ngayon. Nakakahiya. Pangalawa, mas maganda kung maayos yung communication.
F: E basta gawan mo ng paraan.
A: Bigyan mo ako ng chismax para maniwala ako.
F: Eto ka ,,!,,

September..
Her classmates: O, Francis.
Francis: Oi. Bat nandito kayo?
Cs: Submission ng machine problem.
F: Ah. Sige punta na muna ako sa restroom.
Cs: Wait lang. (Shouts) Tawagin nyo nga!
Ibang Cs: Oi! *a**a! Nandito siya.
F: Shit kayo.

Nostalgia strikes again.

I was trying to get my self some nap.

She was desperately practicing for the practical exam for our PE class.

We were 9 in our group. The routine has to be in pairs. She has nobody to dance (practice) with and so she has to perform solo.

She woke me up. Asked if I could help her practice. "Woah. 'Bat di na lang si C**?" I told her why not a fellow. She gave me no response.

It seems I had no choice. Whether I had, I would be more than willing to help her.

..

Her hands were as cold as ice but as soft as feather. I oh so love those small hands.

Friends, apologies for the delay. My supposed-to-be entry is now, uhm let's say is still at its progress. I am spending too much time on reading manga right now so I think I'd be posting it late next week. Just scan my blog's archive if you wanted to read something funny or anything.

I just wanted to share you guys a line from a song I am currently listening to. It is from Ani DiFranco's Untouchable Face.

Here it is:

I hate to say it
but you're perfect together.
So fuck you
and your untouchable face.

It's not that I am bitter right now but it just makes me feel better.

June 21: Happy birthday Raisa! You're special to me kid. And you know that. Cheers!

Why I think ClickFraud is far greater than imagined
Posted Jun 1, 2006, 5:07 PM ET

This is an opinion piece. So take it as such. To all those who have asked me. This is why I think clickfraudFAR exceeds what is being published by search companies.

1. Hackers exist.
2. Hackers exist for profit. Playing Thermo Nuclear War no longer cuts it.
3. Hackers will exert how ever much social or technical hacking as is required to grab and sell credit cards and otherdigital assets. Knowing the return is decent, but the jail risk is more than trivial.
4. Hackers have figured out that the risk of proving they are breaking the law with click fraud is minimal. Tryexplaining the difference to authorities between a blog, a splog and a website that is trying to make money from any ofthe many, many affiliate marketing programs that also happens to host adsense or other ad publishing network ads.
5. Hackers have figured out that they look a lot more legit getting checks from google than trying to wash 10k dollarsin cash delivered in a bag.
6. Hackers have figured out that untold amounts of dollars are being spent on an ongoing basis by the biggestcompanies in the world to try to stop them from stealing data that has disputable value and is difficult to sell. Why waste time there when search engine companies, even with the maybe 20 best and brightest assigned to the problemare no match for the legions of hackers around the world who see the easy money and are happy to grab it.
7. The number of splog/fake websites being created EVERY HOUR is exploding. Based on the comments Im getting on myblog from what must be legions of boiler rooms creating marginally understandable comments , with links back to“affiliate websites” and legit email addresses in an effort to legitimize those sites. There must be just as many morein place to sign up those sites for ad publishing networks.

Now i have no idea how much money is being lost to click fraud. All i know is that when the black hat hackers see easymoney, they take it. I also know that they are greedy and a jealous bunch. The more they see the more they take, so youcan pretty well bet that the amount of click fraud is going up by the minute.

And no amount of IP repetition algorithms are going to stop them.

Again, this is all opinion. No investigative reporting going on. Yet.

2006-06-01T01:57:00.000+08:00

In 3 days, no more hippie for me.
4 days, enrolment.
12 days, start ng classes.

Teka, classes nga pala.

Dahil nagsummer ako, malamang irreg ako (pero di na this coming AY), kelangan ko tuloy mamili sa 3 sections. Bale yung dati kong section nung first sem ay malamang sa malamang ay mahalo sa ibang sections, SANA di ko kaklase yung ungas na bata. Bwahe. Joke. Pero sana yung mga buddies ko nung first sem yun makaklase ko this coming sem. I hope.

Oh, Badi. :))

Nanaginip ako. Kanina. After a month. Nanaginip ulit ako.

Napanaginipan ko yung babae na lagi kong nakikita sa 2nd floor ng McDo Shorthorn.

Ewan kung bakit.

Basta siya yung typical girl next door. Simple yung ganda niya pero kakaiba. Parang, a face that would never launch a thousand ships but would launch a thousand smiles. Yes, bola. Pero parang madaling makaride sa kanya. Sana makita ko ulit yun bukas.

Bukas kasi nakasked yung weekly dose ko ng Francis Meal (No. 6 Go Big Time + Hot Fudge Sundae).

Basta sa pagkakaalala ko, sa nadinig ko minsan nung tumawag siya sa cellphone niya, Emma yung name nya. Sana tama.

Pero.. wala. Nevermind.

This post is for Benzon, Alex, and Lovely who constantly demanded for a meaningful entry.

Have you seen these signs?

1. For Sale: Fresh Frozen Chicken. P***.00 per kilo.
2. Do not park on the parking space.
3. Free Taste: P5.00 only.

**

1. Fresh products are those who came from the producer (i.e. cow, chicken, etc.) straight to the consumer. A frozen item is not and should never be considered fresh.

2. Kaya nga parking space diba? Much better siguro kung tinanggal na lang yung word na "parking."

3. Free taste. FREE NGA E. FREE. (As far as I could remember, sa entrance to sa grocery sa tabi ng shopping baskets.)

Btw, I saw these late last last week and last week sa Cherry Foodarama.

Yung #2 sa Galera and Cherry din.

Kahapon, 7 pm. Nasa SM pa din ako pero gusto ko ng umuwi kasi meron akong klase kinabukasan kaya nagtaxi na lang ako pauwi.

** start **

Manong: Ang hirap ng buhay, totoy. Putang ina yan.
Ako: ...
Manong: Ang hirap kumita ng pera. Kaya ngayong nagtatrabaho na ako, gusto ko tuloy bumalik sa pag-aaral. Di mo problema yung pera. Hihingi ka lang sa magulang mo, OK na. Putang inang yan.
Ako: ...
Manong: Ano na ba year mo?
Ako: First year college po.
Manong: San ka ba nag-aaral?
Ako: UST.
Manong: Ah. Anong kurso?
Ako: Chemical Engineering po.
Manong: Aba. Diba puro numero yun?
Ako: Opo.
Manong: Hay nako yang asawa kong yan. Sus. Bungangera masyado. Wala nga akong laban e.
Ako: ...
Manong: Pag nasa labas na ng bahay, kala mo kung sino akong siga. Pero pag kaharap na yung putang inang yun, tupi naman ako.
Ako: ...
Manong: Kaya ikaw 'wag ka munang mag-aasawa.
Ako: ... (May nagtext, hintay ka muna. Magrereply lang ako.)
Manong: Kung pwede nga, mangingidnap na ako o kaya manghoholdap na lang ako e. Madali kasi pera dun. Kahit isang beses lang.
Ako: ... (...)
Manong: Yun nga lang, wala namang gustong sumama saken sa mga kaibigan ko. Pero kung meron lang talagang magyaya saken, papatulan ko na yun. Sasama ako.
Ako: ... Manong, U-turn po tayo tapos kanan po sa susunod na kanto.
Manong: Putang ina yang asawa kong yan. Nung minsan ngang naholdap ako, edi wala akong nauwing pera sa putang inang asawa ko, ako pa yung pinagmumumura. Alas 3 na kasi ng umaga ako nakauwi nun kasi yung mga holdaper kung saan saan muna pinadaan yung taxi. Sabi ng misis ko pinangbabae ko lang daw yung kinita ko nung araw na yun. Gago pala yung putang inang yun e.
Ako: ... Hehe. Ang hirap naman nung ganung lagay mo.
Manong: Onga e.
Ako: ... Manong, kaliwa ka dyan sa may tindahan. Malapit na po ako dun.

oh, the poem.

2006-01-04T20:38:00.000+08:00

Ikaw ang aking inspirasyon,
sa lahat ng pagkakataon.
Ang mga ngiti't tawanan,
Sayo lamang ilalaan.
Siguro ang isang kagaya mo
ang kailangan ko.

Minsang lumapit sayo,
ako'y agarang tinanggap mo.
Sa oras ng pighati
binigyanng lakas ng loob;
at sa pagkarami-raming lungkot,
pakikiramay mo'y 'di pinagdamot.

Pakinggan at pakiramdaman
kahit nasaan ka man;
itong pusong nagpapasalamat
sa tulong at maging sa lahat.
Aking inspirasyon, kaibigan,
buti na lang at ika'y nariyan.

2005-12-06T19:34:00.001+08:00

Yey. May CD na ako ng fuseboxx.. Actually, ngayon ko lang napakinggan yung ibang songs nila. Yung una kong narinig sa kanila yung Ulanarao. Narinig ko lang sya sa Breakfast ng Studio23. Yun lang din yung song nila na Filipino yung ginagmit na language. The rest, English na. Naastigan lang ako dun sa isang set ng songs nila. 5 songs nila titled as Outlet. I-IV bale yun. And yung III-IV lang yung may radio edit.

Mukhang goth yung style nila kasi they sound like Evanescence. Nga pala, they started as an amateur band in 2000, I guess.. They joined Muziklaban 2003 and they won.

Going back to their songs.. Yung songs nila, parang interrelated sa bawat isa. Although may track transition, di mo sya masyadong mapapansin unless na lang kung nagcocrossfading ka. Hindi naman sa redundant yung mga beat.. Pero yung last part ng every song, may connection sa next song. Kaya kung papakinggan nyo yung buong album sa player nyo, senseless sya kung nakashuffle. Basta yung buong album, parang subdivided into smaller group of verses. Basta unique sya.

Nagbus kami ni Alexmauel kaninang pag-uwi. Mabilis kasi. Monumento yung sinakyan namin para sabay na. Sa Muñoz ako bababa.

Nung nasa pinto na ako, natakot ako bigla. Saan? 'Di ko din alam. Awkward talaga. Kinabahan na lang ako. Tapos naglakad ako papuntang terminal ng jeep. Nagmanhid bigla yung left hand ko. Bakit? Ewan.

Parang naeexcite tuloy ako sa mangyayari. Sana maganda 'to.

2005-10-02T22:21:00.000+08:00

yet again, from UP, an article that seems to be too conclusive.

..::READ::..

Makibaka! Huwag Matakot!
Thirty three years after the declaration ofMartial Law, Mrs. Arroyo recently issued the useof calibrated preemptive response versus thepeoples right to peacefully assemble. Andrecently, reports reveal the DOJs efforts ofdrafting a proclamation of martial rule inwhatever form it may be packaged.
Startling, yet expected.
At last, Mrs. Arroyo has now bared herself to bethe fascist tyrant that the Filipino people hasvowed never to have again. Repression is the nameof her game for the longest time, and now she isdeclaring it up front. Concealed from the generalpublics view, more than 4,000 human rightsviolations have already been committed under theArroyo regimes four years in office. Abductions,intimidations, summary executions and warrantlessarrests have been her retort to those brave enoughto speak and act against her adminstration and itspolicies.
Arroyos calibrated preemptive reponse,characteristic of an authoritarian rule, is adesperate attempt to dissuade the public,particularly the middle forces, the youth andstudents, from joining mass actions. Concurrently,the DepEd issued DO no.57 ordering students andteachers to stay away from partisan politicalactivities. The numerous state apparatusfromthe government agencies to the militaryare now onthe double to repress our civil liberties.
Never shall we default in our historicresponsibility to struggle and protect ourdemocratic rights.
We have more than enough reasons to remove GloriaArroyo from office. Crimes of stealing thepeoples vote, plunder of public funds forpersonal political interest, and murder ofpolitical dissenters must not be left to passwithout justice. Add to that the recent expose ofcontracts between the Arroyo administration andAmerican lobbying firms on key Philippine policiesand programs, going as far as allowing US tomeddle with the proposed Charter Change. Suchdeals has indeed exposed Arroyos brazen puppetryto the United States.
Repression is an instinctive state reaction in theface of heightening dissent. Faced with such rashstrokes, we are tasked to take more militantactions to declare that we are undaunted.
We will not bow down to the threat of heavy staterepression.. The people united will triumph overthe tyrant Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Oppose state repression!Down with the fascist Arroyo regime!

..::..::..::..::..

I think, wala namang suppression and repression na nagaganap ngayon. actually, for me, the rallyist themselves are to be blamed for the ironhand being employed by the administration to those who are stalling the daily traffic esp in makati and same as to rotonda and to which i was a victim for not only once, not twice.. neither thrice.. not even four times. but up to the fifth time. damn you madafuckers. i almost failed to attend to my first class and to which i have a must-pass quiz.

di naman ako against sa rallies e. actually ok nga yun e. kasi kahit papaano makakapag express ka ng feelings mo towards the government. pero what the big problem is when these nationalists barricade and mess up everything they wanted to.

e ano ba naman sana kung pumunta sila sa mayor or kung sino man then kumuha sila ng permit. la pa naman akong naririnig na nagattempt na kumuha ng permission for rally na decline e.

democracy. the most common word that you'll hear from these people. wala na daw tayong democracy. i don't think so. i think mali kayo sa pagkakaintindi sa word na democracy. actually we are using it too much. just TOO much. sabi nyo fascist yung government ngayon. e kung pasista sya edi sana wala na kayong tinitirahang mga bahay ngayon. o kaya baka may food stubs na tayo. o kaya yung mga ariarian ng pamilya nyo di na nakapangalan sa inyo kundi kung sa kung sino man yung sinasabi nyo pasista. for short, mala-marcos. yun talaga yung pasista. la pa namang land-grabbing diba? si gloria, most probably, elitista sya. oo.. elitista. pro-rich. wala kayong magagawa. e kung noon pa lang na humingi na sya ng hinihingi nyong public apology, tinaggap nyo na instead of putting it against her again. edi sana pro-masa or pro-common tao na sya.

anarchy. a form of government into which there is no government at all (!!??). hekhek. siguro everytime na magkakaroon ng govt or maybe a president, they'd go out and barricade busy streets. everytime yan.

sabi nga ng isang former (true) activist: ibang iba na mga aktibista ngayon. they'd go for the name aktibista than the true sense of being one.

ayun. sigurado may matatamaan nanaman ako dito. pero pasensya na. if you could do it on the streets, i could do it on my blogsite. actually nagawa ko na.

got this one from a friendster user.

2005-09-10T21:04:00.000+08:00

Article na nabasa ko sa Friendster. Nirepost nya to. Nabasa ko. I think it is just to repost it on my own blog. Anyway, it's mine and nobody can prevent me from posting it. Di ko sana ipopost to kaya lang after recalling what I just have seen a while ago at The Dome [yun yung pinaskil sa pader ng mga UP students na: "Finals n'yo, quiz lang namen." And to which they are pertaining to the UE Red Warriors. Right away after the Warriors reacted wildly to this unsportsman-like attitude shown by what we call the intellectually gifteds, the management and the security stripped it off the wall and then talked to the geniuses.], naisip ko.. napatunayan ko na di lahat ng pumasa ng UP ay mga intellect at ang mga hindi nakapasa ay mga moron, idiot, at mediocre lang ang range ng thinking nila. Siguro, yung luck nila sobrang lakas lang ng kapit sa kanila kaya lang sila nakapasa. At yung mga nagfail ay di lang nagconcentrate sa pagtake nung test at minalas lang na yung nireview nila ay hindi lumabas sa set of questions na binigay sa kanila. I, too, was a victim of bad luck.. I guess. Ganun din mga closest friends ko.

Read this one and you'll understand the things I'm stressing unto you. Kung sa source at sa source din lang, I'm sure na trust-worthy yung source nito.

Bahala na kayo kung maniniwala kayo. I'm not trying to convince you in any form or in any how. I was just stressing a point here. Enjoy.

It's so hirap talaga to study in UP, the University of the Poor. You know, I never wanted to study here. Butmy parents kasi, they both went to UP and they said na it was the best school talaga. Eh 'di I went. But no! When I got here, Holy horrors! I was ready to make himatay after the firstday palang. Would you believe, there's no aircon na nga in the classrooms, the fan doesn't work pa. And then this guy who was like, wearing a sando, shorts and tsinelas lang made tabi next to me. He made pakilala pa! The nerve! So I made takbo to the CR to make tago. But I couldn't make hugas my hands that were so pawis from escaping such a near-death experience. There was no liquid soap! Not even a couch where I could sit to make kikay. Do you feel my pain na ba? But wait, there's more. Last Thursday kasi Daddy's Volvo was bawal, eh the Eclipse was being repaired, so I had to mak esakay with my yaya in the Ikot jeep. It was so siksik! I could like, smell the putok of the girl next tome. Like, it was sobrang mabaho talaga. kasi naman,the Ikot jeeps are old na nga, they're mainit pa! Sana they make palit na the jeeps with a shuttle system. Okey lang naman even if there's an increase in pamasahe di ba? So when the car is bawal, I can use my credit card na to make bayad. Isa pa, you know the Shopping Center? It's so kadiri talaga. I'm forced na nga to make Xerox there, (as if naman I would be caught in that place otherwise) pero I'm so inis because it's so madilim and maliit, and most of the stalls don't have aircon. They should tear it down na and build a mall na lang. Then I wouldn't have to go to Katipunan pa to get my Starbucks fix. My gosh, this place is so bulok I don't know nga why anyone would bother making turo here pa. Just yesterday, my professor was kinda inis kasi her whiteboard marker had no more tinta! Then she tried to make hanap a matino whiteboard marker but of course there was none. Duh! Kasi naman if we had laptops instead of desks in every classroom there would be no more need for whiteboards di ba? But you know even if there were laptops na, the seats are so tigas sometimes I find it mahirap to concentrate. Dapat may cushioning para malambot sa butt, like Downy. Now I'm in my fourth year na. I don't want to stay in this place anymore. I don't give a paki if UP's the best university here. I'm going to transfer to LaSalle, where the CRs have liquid soap. Now na.

Just Like a Splendid Love Song

2005-07-10T07:00:00.000+08:00

Spending my days with you
Is like living in a world of fancy
With all the beautiful people I know
Makin' love in a world
Of vivid colours
How often have I been there
Well it really doesn't matter
As long as we're together

You and me together we will journey
To seek and see the colours
Of our fantasies
Come to life with the stroke
Of your soothing hands
All the questions in life
I will come to understand

Seasons come
And seasons go
Stars will shine
And lose their glow
But every time I try to look back
I know...

Spending my days with you
Is like living in a world of fancy
With all the beautiful people I know
Makin' love in a world
Of vivid colours
How often have I been there
Well it really doesn't matter
As long as we're together

You and me in love with each other
There will be no problems
That will bother
Just the two of us
Painting a world of our own
Everything is perfect
Just like a splendid love song

Seasons come
And seasons go
Stars will shine
And lose their glow
But every time I try to look back
I know...

Demmit. I'm in love. For the nth time.

at last. my blockmates had started to talk. the room was very very noisy. and it's better that the deafening silence that overshadowed everybody since the first, second, and the third day of classes had perished. it was very awkward when no one from your class talks or whatsoever. you'll just miss high school with that.
**
anyway.. ena introduced us one of her friends in her block. she was called aims [i don't know how to spell it but i think it was pronounced as "ehyms"]. she's not beautiful. but she was stunning. she was cute. petite. she may not have the girlfriend material that every man was looking for for a woman. but she was just very different. I DON'T WANT YOU TO MEET HER. SHE'S MINE. ONLY MINE. HAHAHA. LOL. i was just joking. JOKE LANG TO HA. PAG MERON AKONG NARINIG NA ISSUE, SAPUKINS KO KAYO E O KAYA SUMBONG KO KAYO KAY AIMS [o anuman yun.]!! haha. LOL.
**
hmm.. college was fine. fun. and a whole lot of it.
