The first song that I wrote from a woman's point of view
This was a challenge actually, not exactly to write from a woman's point of view
but to write a song that would make a listener cry, I don't really think that I would be able to accomplish the task :D
[male voice]
Baby I really don't want to do this
But it's not right for us to be still in this
But even though it's hard
I have to let you go
[female-1st stanza]
Baby that's what you said
When you broke up with me
And you shocked the whole world
Because all of sudden that's what you said
I tried to be strong
And tried to think what went wrong
Then I can't help but cry
And deep inside I am screaming why
[chorus]
Oh baby why why why
Why does it have to happen this way
And baby I wish this is only a dream
Because I don't want this to be real
[2nd stanza]
Not hearing from you
Makes a day really hard
Coz' I'm missing you baby
And still wondering why you ended
A relationship that is so fluent
[chorus]
Oh baby why why why
Why does it have to happen this way
And baby I wish this is only a dream
Because I don't want this to be real
[3rd stanza]
And then one day we're back
To being lovers again
I thought this wouldn't end at all
But just after a few days
Again, you broke-up with me
Again I'm clueless why
[2nd chorus]
Oh baby why why why
Why can't you give me a reason
Why can't you give me a reason
And now I'm also gonna let you go
[4th stanza]
I thought it would be easy
Never thought that things would come back to me
As I remember the memories
The special things we did
The places we've been in
And the real love we both shared
[end]
It makes me wonder
Why? why? why?
Why our love should end?

EP#36: Four Times the Celebration
Four Times the Celebration
This is about the four graduates from Pasig
Anne, Dondie aka Chito, Jr and Kuya Ivan
Anne, Chito and Jr all graduated from Pasig Catholic College
Congratulations to the three of you
And Kuya Ivan who was still able to graduate
Congratulations to you as well
And this is a long day for me
A very long day
Okay let me begin with this thing
The original plan was we [Me, T-Tin, T-Tel and Kuya Marvin]
Were supposed to leave Cavite City between 9:30AM-10:00AM
So I set my alarm clock at 7:00AM
No, it's not because it takes me that long to get ready
But because I would still play Rock Legends in Facebook
But I was able to get up pass 8:00AM already
After eating breakfast, taking a bath and dressing up
I proceeded to my plan
Which is to play Rock Legends
We were able to leave at 10:30AM
Our first stop would be the Burg
Because we need to pick up Rovin's laundry
But we made a stop over at the Petron Gas Station at Macapagal
And I went to the restroom
Then after we bought something to drink at Treats
What I bought would be a difference maker in this day
And that is a 1 Liter C2 Apple Iced Tea
And I did not share it with anyone
I'll get back to that C2 story later
But then here's the plan when we get at the Burg
T-Tel is going to buy at Burger Machine or what I am going to call BurMac
Then Me and T-Tin will go up the Burg in 1211
Then Kuya Marvin is going to stay in the car
The plan worked out pretty well
Except for a couple of things
Kuya Iking is not in 1211
And T-Tin wanted to talk to him
And Rovin has not fixed his things yet
And he's only on his way to the Burg
But Peping is the one in 1211 that time
But then after Rovin arrived and fixing his things
Me and T-Tin went back down and left the Burg
Then all of us are in the car
And began eating our Jumbo Burgers from BurMac
Then here I will begin with my C2 story
I started drinking my C2 after eating my Burger from BurMac
Then I began joking that it's like a bottomless Iced Tea
Then our next stop would be at Tiendesitas
We arrived at Tiendesitas and my C2 is only pass halfway
And they said I can't leave it in the car because it would spoil
And then I brought it out from the car
Then started drinking it again as we were walking
And looking for Mom and Tina's restaurant
And then I finished drinking it, all by myself
Then we were not able to find that restaurant
So we just went to Hacienda instead and had lunch there
And then there I began too feel bad, really bad
Every ten minutes I think I am going to the bathroom to pee
I felt so bad that I was not able to have rice during lunch
And even my sibs are shocked because I'm only eating that much
And I felt like that for about 2 hours
This will definitely go in my book
The Rulebook
Wait for this guys
Then after eating lunch
And recovering from the 1 Liter C2 side-effect
We stareted going around Tiendesitas
Then while in the Antiques section
Our Mom called and asking for one of us
To go to PCC and take pictures of the graduation
Even though I am not the one who went
I am sort of pissed
Because of that thing that happened
Because from the start she already knew that she needs the camera
And it is again on the last minute where she demanded for it
By the way it was T-Tel who went there
And the three of us Me, T-Tin and Kuya Marvin
Were left in Tiendesitas and still going around
Nothing so special happened that time
So I'm just going to fast forward to when we left
And then our next stop would be Boni High
Or Bonifacio High Street
Because the dinner is going to be in Friday's in Boni High
Again my Mom made a reservation for 7:00PM
So we were there just before 7:00PM
And Mama Nene and Papa Gorio were already there
Then at around 7:30PM Tito Ricky and Tita Luella arrived
And we were already having our starters at that time
And it's already 9:00PM when all of us were there
And literally we the ones who came early
Were already having desserts
My God, I would really trade a Starbuck Coffee for this one
The dessert is so good
Then at around 9:30PM
We started taking pictures
It's like having a photoshoot in there
Then we left Friday's at 10:30PM
Just imagine I was in the restaurant for more than 3 hours
Then we did a little family picture taking after it
Then when we were about to leave Boni High
T-Tin can't find our parking ticket
Then they ended up paying for the lost ticket
We were able to leave Boni High at 11:50PM
And were able to arrive in Cavite at 1:30AM already
But there's another story behind this
On our way home while in the car
They started sharing horror stories of their own
And the whole “sundo” concept thing really creeped me out
I mean T-Tin had an experience regarding this thing
And that what really creeped me out
So I know I need to do something to cover up that thought
So that's why I ended up playing Rock Legends
And I was able to go to sleep at 3:30AM already
This is about the four graduates from Pasig
Anne, Dondie aka Chito, Jr and Kuya Ivan
Anne, Chito and Jr all graduated from Pasig Catholic College
Congratulations to the three of you
And Kuya Ivan who was still able to graduate
Congratulations to you as well

EP#35: T-Tel's Graduation
Before anything else
Congratulations sis
You made it!!! :D
A very memorable day for her indeed
Too bad I was not able to go inside and attend the ceremony
Because of the stupid dress code
Well the gentlemen are required to wear
Collared shirts: Check
Slacks: X [story about this below]
Leather Shoes: Check [But it's in the Burg]
Here's the thing about my slacks
I used it like 2 weeks ago
But I was not able to take
My laundry back home that time
And I was able to take i back home last Thursday
And it is scheduled to be washed tomorrow Tuesday
And another thing is
I don't know if I was able to bring it home
Or I left it at the Burg
And my other slacks is in Pasig
So basically I can't really go inside
Because I've got no slacks
So I just waited for T-Tin
Because we were the ones assigned
To make reservations for the reception
Or basically the dinner celebration for T-Tel
It was originally planned to be held at Emerald Garden
But there's a sort of mix ups
So we just went to Mall of Asia [MOA]
And then there we should find a restaurant
Where we are going to eat later on
But before that let me just go back at some parts
While waiting for T-Tin
I just hanged out at the Burg
But not for long
Because my Mom asked me to buy some flowers for T-Tel
But too bad the flower shop is closed
But at the same time Joyce texted me
If I want to go with them and eat at Tropical Hut [Trop]
And I've got nothing left to do
So I decided to go with them
There was also a problem in trying to reach T-Tin
I was trying to call her
But according to the operator
The number is out of reach
Then while we are in Trop
I was able to make a call to T-Tin
And then there we talked on
How we are going to meet each other
And where are we heading
So she just picked me up
Across Trop the side walk of DLSU main
So just after 10-15 minutes
I said goodbye to Joyce and her friends
Then went across the street
Then after 5 minutes
I saw the Taxi where T-Tin's at
And it stopped to pick me up
Then we went to MOA and began to look
For the restaurant that we want
And at some point
We bumped into the whole Chin Family
Then we had little talk
Then eventually separated ways
T-Tin and I found Racks
And thought that it would be fine
If we are going to eat there
But they are not accepting reservations
So we looked for another one
Then we found Lamesa Grill
I'll be fast forwarding to the food there
We ordered a set meal for 12 persons
And I mean there's a lot of food that time
Everything tastes great
Even the vegetables tastes good
I really don't eat a lot of veggies
But that I was able to eat more than I used to
I took pictures of the food
Just after it was served
We were in the restaurant for more than 2 hours
Or even almost 3 hours
But we all were stuffed
And we all had a great time
Congratulations sis

RTP#26: How Would I Deal With Celebrities?
I really am dreaming about getting famous
And it is stated in RTP#11: Golden Post
All the things that I would do to gain fame
And in EP#34 we went to Makati
And Kuya Marvin had a haircut in Bench Fix Lab
And then I was told that
That particular branch was built
So that it could extend work hours
And accommodate the celebrities that wants a treatment
So knowing that scenario
T-Tin told me that if I want to
Bump into a celebrity I should have my haircut there
And I should have it like 9:00PM
But here's what I thought
I found that situation really interesting
And just after a short time I came up with this
I approached T-Tin and said
If I'm going to encounter a celebrity
I would tell him/her this
"Hi, I'm Awesome and I'm the future of your industry.
You don't know me, yet. But soon you will. Just wait for it,
wait for it."
Then all of a sudden I will leave the area :D

RTP#25: It's Only One Awesome Idea
It is stated in RTP#23
That I am going to record my very own music album
Which is "D'Classics"
A collection of classic songs
To be sang by me
And I am very excited to do this
Just last night I was able to complete the track list
D'Classics is composed of 10 songs [with no OPM]
Because I am planning to do a separate album for that
And earlier I tried to record my first song
And it came out to be a mess
I mean a huge mess
Honestly my voice kinda sucked during the first time
Because I was literally just trying it out
But what bothered me more is the mic
It is extremely sensitive
Every deeper breath is recorded
That's how sensitive the mic is
Well it's quite impossible to do this
But still possible
And will I pursue on this?
Nah, I don't think so
Here's the thing I wanted this
To be just me having fun while doing this
And I'm no longer to have the fun that I expected to have
Because of that stupid mic
Well maybe it's not yet the right time
For me to really go and do this recording thing
Or maybe I will find something better
To do for this vacation
Or also maybe it really is just an awesome idea after all
But no matter what happens
I can still go through this vacation
Even with this huge change of plan
Plan A didn't work
Then being a very awesome man
I would be able to come up with plan B
And I think it's going to be
LEGEND...
wait for it...
DARY!!! :D

RTP#24: My Awesomeness [EXPLAINED]
I think a lot
I think of all kinds of things
I think of what happened to me throughout the day
And I think even more
While I am lying on my bed
And trying to get to sleep
And this thing hit me at 1:19AM
And because I am not yet sleepy I am going to start writing this down
I know, I am a self-proclaimed awesome person
But why do I keep calling myself that?
And how did I become this... wait for it.. Awesome?
First is, knowing myself as a person
Let me just label this as Zoom
Zoom – is knowing yourself as a person. I am talking about knowing yourself deeper as a person, that's why I labeled this Zoom. Especially your strengths and weaknesses.
My professor asked me once, “How much do you know yourself?”,
I answered “Right now I can really say that I know myself very well.”,
“Of course people can't know theirselves completely, let's say how many percent do you already know yourself?” she added.
“Ma'am, I can say about 85% - 90%”
That's how confident I am about knowing myself
How did I do the Zoom?
Simple. Examination, realization and operation
1.Examination – no it's not the quizzes. It's examining one's self, yourself. Try asking yourself these questions, what makes me happy? Sad? Cry? Terrified? Excited? And other things that would make you learn more about yourself. And answer it not simply through your instincts. Think deeper before you answer. And then after successfully examining you'll proceed to the next one which is...
2.Realization – from the root word realize, you will then realize and maybe telling yourself, “Yeah, I am good in that thing” or “Damn, I really suck on that”.
3.Operation – yes like a doctor who is going to operate an ill patient. After realizing what your good at and not good at it's time to develop and conquer it, referring to your strengths and weaknesses respectively.
After the Zoom process and knowing yourself better
The next thing is answering questions
And I am always emphasizing the “Know your audience” rule
Or I'll be calling it The Catcher
Why? It is because it should be based there on how you would answer questions
I mean I am a very pilosopo type of person when it comes to answering some questions
And I am really having fun doing that
But I know when to answer like that and whom to I could not answer that way
The Catcher – you are the one who is pitching and you should know where's the right spot to throw into your catcher for the batter to miss the hit on the ball. I mean I shouldn't reply with one of my pilosopo statements when I am talking to my grandparents, or someone who I don't really know that well, or just someone who is not in the mood for fooling around, yes I can do that but I would insist when I am talking to those kind of persons, because I would make them feel disrespected and angrier. But I can sometimes still pull it off, but it depends on the situation.
That's why I am a very quiet person during the start
And that would only be when I am still not comfortable dealing with a person
I would really hold back and try not to say a lot
Because I can really hurt someone unintentionally through my talking
And maybe my talking would irritate the person who am I talking to because of my answers
But once I am comfortable with the person
And this holding back is gone
Then you will get the chance to know the awesome side of me
And I answer common questions in a different way
Or even just giving comments on what he/she said
Just to make things even more interesting
Like if I am asked How are you/Kamusta ka?
I would answer "Buhay pa naman + [what's heppening to me lately]
Not like, "aus lang ikaw?"
Or if someone tells me Di na nagpaparamdam si + [the name of the person]
I would tell him/her this "Patay na ba un at nagpaparamdam na? hahaha"
But again I can't reply with my answers to everyone
Know The Catcher before throwing the ball
Another key to my awesomeness is being extremely understanding
I understand people very well
How do I do it?
Well first is just being an open minded person by nature
And when you are going to experience hearing from both sides
And being the Mediator
It is very important NOT TO PICK SIDES
Once you picked a side
Then you are not doing a very good job
I don't really know how do I do it
But maybe because I am pretty balanced
And also that's just being me being awesome :D
And a friend once said that I really am awesome
Thank God I am no longer just a self-proclaimed awesome person :D
I think of all kinds of things
I think of what happened to me throughout the day
And I think even more
While I am lying on my bed
And trying to get to sleep
And this thing hit me at 1:19AM
And because I am not yet sleepy I am going to start writing this down

I mean I shouldn't reply with one of my pilosopo statements when I am talking to my grandparents, or someone who I don't really know that well, or just someone who is not in the mood for fooling around, yes I can do that but I would insist when I am talking to those kind of persons, because I would make them feel disrespected and angrier. But I can sometimes still pull it off, but it depends on the situation.
That's why I am a very quiet person during the start
And that would only be when I am still not comfortable dealing with a person
I would really hold back and try not to say a lot
Because I can really hurt someone unintentionally through my talking
And maybe my talking would irritate the person who am I talking to because of my answers
But once I am comfortable with the person
And this holding back is gone
Then you will get the chance to know the awesome side of me
And I answer common questions in a different way
Or even just giving comments on what he/she said
Just to make things even more interesting
Like if I am asked How are you/Kamusta ka?
I would answer "Buhay pa naman + [what's heppening to me lately]
Not like, "aus lang ikaw?"
Or if someone tells me Di na nagpaparamdam si + [the name of the person]
I would tell him/her this "Patay na ba un at nagpaparamdam na? hahaha"
But again I can't reply with my answers to everyone
Know The Catcher before throwing the ball
Another key to my awesomeness is being extremely understanding
I understand people very well
How do I do it?
Well first is just being an open minded person by nature
And when you are going to experience hearing from both sides
And being the Mediator
It is very important NOT TO PICK SIDES
Once you picked a side
Then you are not doing a very good job
I don't really know how do I do it
But maybe because I am pretty balanced
And also that's just being me being awesome :D
And a friend once said that I really am awesome
Thank God I am no longer just a self-proclaimed awesome person :D
EP#34: Kick Off
This happened yesterday March 19 '09
When T-Tin and Kuya Marvin picked me up from the Burg
And also it's their day-off so decided to go to somewhere else
And we including T-Tel went to Makati
Specifically in the Ayala area
We parked the car in Greenbelt
Then when we got down we went to the newly opened
Bench Fix Lab just outside Glorietta
Kuya Marvin is going to have a haircut
Then we left him there
Then the three of us went to Glorietta
And began to window shop
Then after nearly an hour or so
Kuya Marvin is back with us
Then we head to Sbarro to eat merienda
And for the Chocolate Calzogne
That they are craving for
Well I really did not like it that much
After there we are thinking of watching a movie
But unfortunately there isn't anything that we find fun to watch
So after buying all that we need and want to buy
We went to Timezone and just did videoke
Finally I was able to sing Go On Girl :D
Then T-Tel left earlier because she's going to meet up with Ate Det
Then the three of us [Me, Kuya Marvin and T-Tin]
Went to Greenbelt 3 to find a place where we are going to eat
And here we are in Marciano's
A New-Yorker Italian Restaurant
And some of the names of their dishes
Are named after from famous TV show characters that was featured in a New-York City setting
Such as the cast members of Friends
And I also saw someone from The Godfather I think
And Peter Petreli from Heroes
And the waitress are hot
They look good I mean :D
And there's this waiter that served our Iced Tea and water
Who served it while saying this
“Amazing Iced Tea” then followed it up with “Amazing Water”
Oh I fit very well in here that's what came to my mind
A amazing place for a very awesome person like me :D hahaha
Well I had the Joey Tribbiani's Mac and Cheese
And I've got to tell you the food definitely is amazing
I love that place and I would definitely go back there
Maybe with my date at that time :D
I would just cut this here
There's still some missing part in this story
But I am not going to spill it
Well that's a very good way to kick-off my vacation
Even though there's still that really made it bad
I'll take it :D
I'm going to leave you with a lyrics from one of Ne-Yo's songs
“You never pick a street fight with Floyd Mayweather”

RTP#23: What's Next?
3rd term is officially over and it ended with a blast
So vacation has already started
No more school works
So I've got nothing to do now
But of course I don't want my vacation to end up like that
And just bumming myself up
So I started thinking of things that I could do this vacation
Of course being the awesome random thinker that I am
You could expect even more posts from me
But here's one thing that I thought of doing
And I am so into this one
And I am hoping that I would be able to accomplish this
I would record my own music album
Yes, you heared that right
Well I was awaken by this stuff
When we were in Timezone after I sang All or Nothing by O-Town
I felt like a rockstar, a real artist when I was singing
So I thought of having my own versions of those types of songs
That's why I would be calling my album
The Classics or D'Classics
And right now I am having problems in choosing the songs
My original plan was to have 15 songs in that album
But I think I would only go for 10
So that is just one thing that I would do this vacation
Another thing is I've drank a lot of beer since staying at the Burg
And I am not doing any exercise
And my “abs” that I formed while still training in the boxing gym
Is losing its form
And I want to bring it back again
So I'll be doing my regular build up for this vacation
Well the main thing this vacation is my album
I am planning to record starting today
So that I can finish it early and release it early
Wait for it guys... The awesome man will surely deliver on this one :D

EP#33: Last And Longest Day of the Third Term
This is what happened during the whole March 18 '09 and early moments of March 19 '09
I will cover this from the very start to the very end
This will be a long one
Well here we go
I woke up at 8:40AM
But I was planning to wake up at 7:00AM
So I can still study for my finals before I leave Cavite
Then Kuya Marvin arrived
We [Me, T-Tin and Kuya Marvin] had a breakfast together
Then after having breakfast
I went upstairs to go online
And I played Pet Society for about 30 minutes or so
I started getting ready to leave at 10:10AM
I took a shower then dressed up
Then I just packed my things then left the house
It was 10:40AM when I left the house
I missed a bus
And I was able to get in the bus in 11:10AM already
But thank God there's not much traffic
I was able to arrive at pass 1:00PM at the Burg
Then of course knowing Kuya Iking's new schedule
Which is 4:00PM – 1:00AM
I was still able to catch him there
Then I just had tuna for lunch
Then I just took my MP5 the lied down on my bed
Killed about an hour and a half
Just resting and listening to good music
Then at around 3:00PM I got up already
And also Kuya Iking
Then I took another shower because I'm also about to leave
I am planning to leave earlier than usual so that I can still study
After taking a shower and dressing up
I just watched TV for about 15 minutes
Then at 3:57PM I left the Burg
3 minutes earlier than what I planned
I am expecting to arrive at Mapua at 4:30PM
But here's what happened
I let the first FX that I saw pass
Because it was sort of full already
Then I rid the next one
Because I would only be the second passenger
Everything was fine until the next passengers arrived
They sat beside me [A mom, a baby and another girl just about high-school age]
The mom and the baby is the one sitting beside me
So I am expecting the baby would be a little noisy
Again I was right
She became not a little but very noisy
And I am trying to gain focus for my exam
So it really began to irritate me
But what's more irritating is the Mom
I think they came from the province
From what I've been hearing from them
Because they really talk a lot
I mean they talk a lot
And I can see the other passengers
Are feeling the same way that I do
Then adding the huge traffic
That made me arrive at City Hall at 4:40PM
I was so unfocused at that time
Even my plan that I was going to study was ruined
Then as I walk the feeling just left
And when I arrived Mapua
I bumped into Karl then Katsu
Then we went to the Canteen
There we found our block mates and joined them
I bought something to drink
And should be sweet
For me to gain more focus
And have better thinking due to sugar rush
I had Milo Freeze
Then just 3 minutes before 5:00PM
We all went up to our respective rooms
I arrived just in time for the start of the exam
Damn, I was not able to study that much
But not feeling any pressure though
The exam was quite hard
And I think there are some questions included
That our professor was not able to discuss
But I still think that I did very well
It is scheduled for two hours
But I was able to finish it before an hour
And I am only shy to pass my paper yet
And just waited for others to finish
Then at around 6:05PM I was already to pass my answers
Then just before I left Mapua
I texted Joyce and asked her if we are going to drink tonight
And I was able to read her message when I am in the FX already
Then we talked about details
Then I asked her if she had dinner already
Then we decided to just have dinner together
Then I told her that I'm just going straight to her dorm already
And not go up to the Burg to drop off my things
Then after 10 minutes of waiting
We went to Munch Gulp
And decided to have dinner there
That's about 7:20PM and our dinner arrived pretty fast
Then we started exchanging stories of our own
Then before 8:00PM maybe 7:50PM we left Munch
And went to Maldita's the convenience store in Burg
And I bought a couple of Muchos for us to drink
Then we went up to 1211
Then after 5 minutes we started drinking already
Around 8:15PM maybe
Then we started talking a lot
Just learning more about each other
And funny is she really didn't expect that I am that noisy
But only few people get a chance to experience that
And I like I said now she heared and knows about my real awesomeness :D
Then I looked at the clock it's only 8:55PM
And we already drank 1 bottle of Mucho already
I can say that I drank a lot more than her at that time
But I ain't tipsy yet
But somehow already exceeded my limit when drinking Red Horse
Then after opening the 2nd bottle
I drank the first refill pretty fast
Then after the refilling my tumbler for the 3rd time
I was not able to finish it
But one reason is we even talked more than drink
Well we talked about all things that's happening
Then the next time I checked the time is it is 11:30PM already
That's how fast time passed by
I thought I was already drunk and it should only be 10:30PM
But no no no, it's for real
But wait we're still not finished then
Couple of my room mates Rovin and Kuya Paeng are already asleep
Then Peping has something to finish that is due the next day
He went to Starbucks to finish it
But at around 12:30AM Joyce is still in 1211
Peping came back already
And the three of us began talking
Then after another hour at around 1:35AM, Kuya Iking arrived
And Joyce is still with us :D
Then just after 10 minutes we left Burg
Then went to her dorm
Let's say that's 1:50AM already
It was so fun just talking and drinking with a good friend
And plus she really got the chance to know me better
My awesomeness better
And at some point she shared that during their Women's Studies class
Her professor hit the topic about it is not in the nature of man
That writes diaries, journals or blogs
She and her friends objected, because they thought of me
It felt really good for my part
That my hobby is becoming a statement to prove someone wrong
That's pure awesomeness :D
Back to the long day story
My day is not over
I went back to 1211
And Peping and Kuya Iking are still up
Then I had a little chat with them
Then I tried to go to sleep and still can't
That's around 2:10AM already
And I also remembered that I haven't took a shower yet
So I went down from my bed
Then went outside but Peping is still inside the bathroom
So I just waited for him to come out
Then I went to take a quick shower
I was able to finish taking a bath at 2:40AM
Then Peping is watching cartoons
I am Weasel is the show, a classic :D
We just finished the show
Then at 3:00AM I went back to our room
And slept already
That's all about what happened during my last day of the term
I did not learn a lot this term based on academics
And it is also the longest day
Because this term I did not experience sleepless days
Unlike in the previous ones
Where I was not able to sleep for two straight days
Although I am going to fail in one of my subjects
I would still consider this one of the best terms that I ever had
I gained new friends and it is also this term
Where I became a VERY AWESOME person that I am now :D
I will cover this from the very start to the very end
This will be a long one
Well here we go
I woke up at 8:40AM
But I was planning to wake up at 7:00AM
So I can still study for my finals before I leave Cavite

EP#32: Three Occasions in a Day
This happened just yesterday March 15, 2009
From the title itself we are celbrating a couple of birthdays
And our grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary
All in the same day
And to start our day we [Me, T-Tin and T-Tel]
Went to Kuya Marvin's place to surf the net
Because our connection has been broken since Tuesday
So at 9:30AM we left our place
And went to Kuya Marvin's
Then there T-Tel and T-Tin started to do the presentation
While I am surfing the net
Then Kuya Marvin and I played PS3 for some time
Then we left their place then went back to our compound
Because we are going to have luncg at Nanay Itcha's place
Because today is Joey's birthday
Then Ate Marie is also there who is also celebrating her birthday this day
Then at around 3:00PM
We started to prepare ourselves for the mass that we are having at 4:00PM
The mass that would celebrate our grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary
At exactly 4:00PM we left our house
But the church is just around the corner
So we were still able to make it on time
Then there's Alah and his dad waiting outside
And we were reunited once again
The three of us Me, T-Tel and Alah
And this time we are so back!!!
Talking about me and Alah
Right from the very start we are having fun
Talking and talking and just hanging out
The mass ended at 6:00PM
Longer than it usually takes
But then we went to Chefoo for the reception
It went very well
The presentations and the dinner
It's like even though I am already having a long day
Everything is still okay
I am having fun
And we are celebrating three occasions in one day
And the best part is We're Back!!! :D

EP#31: Divi-Invasion
This happened last Thursday, March 12, 2009
Actually Wednesday night I began having second thoughts of coming with them to Divisoria
But I realized I don't have many things to do that day so I still went with them
At aroun 7:40AM I woke up already
But they are coming from Cavite, and only about to leave there
So I still have to wait for them
Then they texted me to come over and meet them in front of Mini Stop near CCP
So after five minutes I started walking to that place
I walked from the Burg to Mini Stop near CCP
Under the heat of the sun
I was able to make it there just under 15 minutes
Then inside the are Me, Kuya Marvin, T-Tin and T-Tel
Then we headed to Divi
Upon arriving I started to fool around talking with a Chinese accent
Then we went to Divi Mall to gain an easier access to Tabora
Then we were in Tabora to buy some of T-Tel's creative shot pharaphernalias
But we weren't able to get anything there
Tabora is usually very crowded
But when we went there you can even do cartwheels without bumping someone
The place became like that because of the raid
That happened since January 2009
According to one of the vendors there
Then after Tabora
We decided to go to the Bodega
It is the building full of toys
Let me just call it Kid's Heaven
All kinds of toys are in there
They come in a cheaper price
But some still looks really fancy
We spent about an hour there
Then we Kuya Marvin, T-Tel and I started to get hungry
And for my case extremely thirsty
Then we went back to Divi Mall to eat
But before going back to Divi Mall
We passed by this Candy Block as I will call it
And found the candy that T-Tel and I are craving for
Then after buying the candy and having our lunch we went to 168
And the vendors starts speaking Chinese whenever we pass by them
Oh they really think that we are Chinese people :D
Then I was planning on buying to buy an MP3 player
Just an MP3 player not an MP4
Then as we are walking and checking out the items
I saw this PSP like gadget or more commonly known as MP5
A better version of MP4
It comes with a camera and games
And after I asked the vendor how much is it?
She replied 1.5K, I said not bad at all
Then I still did not buy it
Until we went to this store operated by this Chinese woman
She is really accomodating, and she also thought that we are Chinese
And she is speaking in that Chinese accent that I was doing a while ago
Then they have the same product
And only selling it for 1,150 Pesos
But it has an internal memory of just 1GB
But she offered me an 2GB SD card for only 250 Pesos
So I got the whole deal for only 1,400 Pesos
My MP5 has a capacity of 3GB already
Very great deal indeed
Then during our final minutes in 168
Kuya Marvin found this toy store
Which is selling a replica of the WWE Championship spinner belt
In the malls this costs 1000 pesos
And it is so hard to find
But then it only costs 400 pesos
So I decided to buy it
Those are the only things that I bought
But we had a really long day in Divi
And our day is far from over
Because our car had a broken fan belt
And luckily we are already in Blue Wave Petron Station at that time
But unfortunately it is already pass 5:00PM
So their service center is already closed
So T-Tin just called on our mechanic which is still going from Cavite City
So we just waited for them at Blue Wave
And I still have a lecture to pass to my group mates
I was sort of expecting that they would take over my load
Because I am stranded at the moment and unsure of what time to go home
But our leader insisted
So at around 8:00PM my Mom also arrived
And I told her that I would be going with her
And she dropped me of the Burg
I am again under time pressure
I started making my lecture at 9:30PM
And I said I could finish it by 10:30PM
But I finished my lecture at 10:40PM
And my leader told me that I am still missing something
So I revised it and finished at 11:15PM
Then after I arrived at the Burg
I went down again and bought Coke, Tuna, a bottle of Strong Ice and Pancit Canton
Then I saw Peping walking to the lobby
He also bought a Mucho
Then we both went back to 1211
We had a little drinking session of our own
It is deifinitely the best way to end a very long day that we both had
Actually Wednesday night I began having second thoughts of coming with them to Divisoria
But I realized I don't have many things to do that day so I still went with them
At aroun 7:40AM I woke up already
But they are coming from Cavite, and only about to leave there
So I still have to wait for them
Then they texted me to come over and meet them in front of Mini Stop near CCP
So after five minutes I started walking to that place
I walked from the Burg to Mini Stop near CCP
Under the heat of the sun
I was able to make it there just under 15 minutes
Then inside the are Me, Kuya Marvin, T-Tin and T-Tel
Then we headed to Divi
Upon arriving I started to fool around talking with a Chinese accent
Then we went to Divi Mall to gain an easier access to Tabora
Then we were in Tabora to buy some of T-Tel's creative shot pharaphernalias
But we weren't able to get anything there
Tabora is usually very crowded
But when we went there you can even do cartwheels without bumping someone
The place became like that because of the raid
That happened since January 2009
According to one of the vendors there
Then after Tabora
We decided to go to the Bodega
It is the building full of toys
Let me just call it Kid's Heaven
All kinds of toys are in there
They come in a cheaper price
But some still looks really fancy
We spent about an hour there
Then we Kuya Marvin, T-Tel and I started to get hungry
And for my case extremely thirsty
Then we went back to Divi Mall to eat
But before going back to Divi Mall
We passed by this Candy Block as I will call it
And found the candy that T-Tel and I are craving for
Then after buying the candy and having our lunch we went to 168
And the vendors starts speaking Chinese whenever we pass by them
Oh they really think that we are Chinese people :D
Then I was planning on buying to buy an MP3 player
Just an MP3 player not an MP4

RTP#22: The Tarzan Law
Why Tarzan Law?
Simply because of the concept of Tarzan swinging through the jungle
Using the swingable objects in there
Let me just call those the ropes
And the Tarzan Law is really good because if you don't want to proceed
You can just let go of your current rope then go find a new rope to start swinging again
A friend sent me quote one time
“Hindi mo pwedeng piliin ang makakatabi mo sa bus,
ganyan din sa love”
I don't fully believe it
Because of the first rope
And I call it
The Hunt – this is a very interesting and thrilling part in the Tarzan Law. This is where you'll be asking your friends to set you up with someone or with that one or you'll start to attend the classes that you find boring because you have a hot classmate. This may take long or short there's no constant time frame for this. If it's taking too long be patient.
Once you found someone
Then it's time to jump to the second rope
Which have two choices
The Background and The Approach
The Background – this is when you start asking question to your friend who set you up, what is she like? Where is she from? Then the best place to have a knowledge on the girl is through her Friendster account.
The Approach – this is when you're going to make your move to meet the hot girl in your class, and start to know her and try to ask her out on a lunch eventually.
After knowing details or making her agree
Next would be The Move
The Move – when you're in date you want to show your better side to her and try to know her better, then here you can insert the chunks that you have researched about it would really help, especially when the awkward silence comes. Try to show as much interest as possible, because once your date doesn't really see that you are not the interested the you would really not able to go anywhere from here. This is a very crucial point in The Tarzan Law. And be careful because if you found out that she's not the way you expected her to be and you just lost interest on her, still get through the date nicely and then make a flowless drop from this rope then start all over again.
If The Move goes on pretty well
Then reach out grab the next rope
The Follow-up – if you are really having a good time spending time with her, then she somehow feels the same way towards you then this rope is going to build your relationship. The Follow-up is like the second and succeeding dates, where you can start to show your other side as well. And this is where the developing thing starts.
Things are starting to get better after this rope
The next rope would really speed up the process
So I'll just call it The Booster
The Booster – this is basically you being there for her everytime she needs someone. Whether she needs help or just someone to keep her company, you MUST be there. She will really appreciate and like you more because you are always there for her. Especially if she's really going through a hard time, this is your best chance to speed things up. And don't you ever dare to let go while you are still holding on this rope.
Then if you still want to jump to the next one
Then it's the most crucial rope of all the ropes in the Tarzan Law
The Wall – take it from the name because if you won't be able to pass through this rope you'll lose everything even though you don't want to. This is the part where you are going to tell her about how you feel for her. Do it in the most romantic way you know. Look straight to her eyes while you are telling her everything. You only have one shot at this, better not blew it or else it's over.
The much awaited part is the next one
The Difference Maker – this is what she's going to say after you have said how you feel for her. If she replies in a positive way, then congratulations dude, you may have just got her. And if she replies in a not so good way, then don't lose hope try to talk her out of it. If there's nothing you can do about it and she doesn't really want it, try to wait for her. And remember you're still recovering from the hard bump on The Wall so if you're going to wait just make sure that you will do everything to hold on that rope and not . And if you cannot take it anymore, just drop off it. Maybe it's not really meant to be.
If you're still surving then just jump to the next rope
Knowing that you both have mutual feelings for one another
This time there's two ropes to choose from
The Question and The Fish
The Attack – here you are going to ask her if you can officialy court her. It's up to you on how and when are you going to do it. This is very risky there's also several responses that you can hear from her. One is “Yes”, two is “No”, three is “Not now”, four is “I'm not ready”, etc. If you have to wait again just hold on tight don't let go.
And if you don't want to take the huge leap and risk it all
Let me lead you to your next rope
The Fish – from what it's called it is basically just going through the flow. Let the current guide you to her. This might really take long, but most probably you don't need to court her after this. Just go through this like you did in The Booster. Then you may make her develop her feelings for you and make her fall in love in you.
Then let's say you are now a couple
Then it's the end of the Tarzan Law
Tarzan is finally home with Jane
Let me give you a recap of my Tarzan Law:
The Hunt
The Background/The Approach
The Move
The Follow-up
The Booster
The Wall
The Difference Maker
The Question/The Fish
Of course I cannot guarantee you a 100% success in the Tarzan Law
Let me list down reasons why:
1.You let go of your rope
2.She blocked you while you're jumping to another rope which caused you to fall
3.There's no 3rd reason
Well you see mutual feelings are very important in the Tarzan Law
And if she's not feeling the same way then you may experience the 2nd reason that I gave
Or if you don't feel the same way that she feels for you then just put the 1st reason into action
And don't dare to skip a single rope in going to another one. I'm sure it won't do you any good.
And the time frame for the Tarzan Law is not constant, it may or may not take a long time for you to reach the end. It really depends on how the girl would respond.
And again for the very last time, if she asks you to wait, don't let go no matter what. Just be patient and you'll be with her.

EP#30: Just Chillin'
This happened tonight March 11,2009
A long day indeed
After my defense and arriving at the Burg
I felt so tired and already looking for rest
But after I took a shower
I felt reenrgized so I prepared my drink
Then as I am pouring my red horse into my tumbler
Peping arrived
Then he was drinking Pale Pilsen in can
We including Rovin who is just watcing TV
Began talking about all things that's happening
Just exchanging stories
It felt great
Having a semi-serious talk with them
It's really one of those things that I really like about staying here at the Burg
I mean you can definitely talk to these about anything
From the how's school to the crushes and almost everyhting almost under the sun
In fact I am sort of tipsy right now
But I really had a long day
But it ended in a good note
So still it's a very awesome day for me
Goonight.. :D

EP#29: One Shot
This is about our Machine Problem [MP] defense
Well, I was really not able to contribute anything in our program
But I really asked for something to do
But I was not given any task
But that's fine, completely fine
But the major consequence is that
I know nothing in our program
So here we are defense day
The biggest day of the term
Even bigger than finals day
I still haven't looked at our program
I have no idea how it is going to flow
Then at 3:00PM we [my group mates] met at the library
To learn about our program
But too bad our master programmer isn't there
And he arrived at 4:15PM
And our defense will be starting around 4:30PM – 5:00PM
So we just had a brief discussion about it
Then when we left the library
All we did is try to relax
And get ready for our defense
I can say half our group
Which includes me
Have a very little knowledge on our MP
Just like having one bullet in a gun
You'll be very lucky when you'll be asked the question
That we have discussed the answer earlier
Prelude to our MP
Part of our relaxation is doing card tricks
Then we are two groups left waiting for our turn
I know based on the arrangement we are the last to go
But because of this incident that happened to the other group
We became the second to the last group to defend
Here is what happened to them
Because of the card tricks
After one of them performed a trick
Every single one of them went loud
My professor overheared it
Then said to them “Yari kayo sa akin mamaya”
We on the other hand just finished fooling around
Then sat to rest for a while
We had a really lucky break there
Then we started joking “GG na kayo mga sir”
Because we all know at that time that our professor won't go easy on them
Then our group were called to defend already
Upon hearing from the other groups who just finished
Our professor is very strict and serious during the defense
Adding more due to what happened earlier to the other group
We were somehow scared of what is going to happen
Our defense started after our professor had her CR break
Then my group mate Darren started to read the documentation
Nikka followed him after he read the first part
Then we found out that we misunderstood the 2nd problem
Which led our professor to focus in the first problem only
Then she began to ask question to Eliana
She was not able to answer that clearly
So our professor asked Karl [he is the master programmer]
Then he was able to explain it very well
Then when she finished dealing with Karl
She the asked Katsu something
And what she asked is what we were not able to discuss
So Katsu passed, then she called me
I also got no idea how to answer the question
So I said to myself I only have one shot
Then I missed, but our professor did not get mad
Because we were not able to answer her questions
And after 5 minutes our defense ended
We were the fastest group to finish
And I think we still have a great chance to get a good grade
I am not really used in doing nothing for our program
In fact in my first defense
I made 70% of our program – including the revision, we were 2 in the group
In the second defense
I made 40% of our program – we were 3 in the group
But because of our professor in our 116 lecture
We really had a hard time understanding the lessons
And not able to help in programming
But I really got to give a huge thank you to Karl
And also to my groupmates
Well defense is over
And in a week this term is history
I know I am doing pretty well except for my Math class
I feel bad that I gave up on that subject too early
I took a risk on that subject
But it didn't pay off
No regrets. Just lessons learned.

EP#28: A Blog Effect
A Blog Effect
I just want to share how blogging affected me in one way
Earlier today [March 9, 2009] I had a one on one recitation with my professor
And she let me discuss my favorite topic in her subject
I chose the Greek Point of View: Self-knowledge, “Know Thyself”
I chose this topic because I know it is easy for me to discuss it
And I really had an easy time reciting
And after my recitation
My professor said to me that
“It is good that you can express your self very well in English”
“I really want to talk to you more, maybe in some recitations in the future”
How awesome am I?
I even got my professor saying that to me
But I think a key to my English proficiency is blogging
Well I don't really mind about my grammar
When I am writing a blog entry
But regularly composing a blog entry
And I'm using the English language
In 95% of my blog entries
And that recitation is like
Just me writing a blog entry
Just telling a story about my life
About things from my point of view
That's why I was able to get a comment like that from my professor
As usual I don't use very difficult words
I really didn't expected to develop this as I write things
I am also getting better in speaking
Well things like that happens to me
Because of one reason
And that's simply because I am awesome..
Oh wait, not just awesome.. I am VERY AWESOME!:D

That's why I was able to get a comment like that from my professor
As usual I don't use very difficult words
I really didn't expected to develop this as I write things
I am also getting better in speaking
Well things like that happens to me
Because of one reason
And that's simply because I am awesome..
Oh wait, not just awesome.. I am VERY AWESOME!:D
RTP#21: Diamond Post
This is my 75th blog entry
And funny thing is I haven't shared why am I blogging
So I would discuss everything in this post
And if you are wondering
What are those RTP, RP, LP, PP and EP before each title
I would be discussing those too
Let me start on why am I blogging?
The very first reason why I started blogging
Is to impress the girls
Yes, that's right
And it worked out pretty well
Because here I was somehow able to impress Che
In fact my first blog entry PP#1: Cellphone
Is dedicated to her
And PP#2: 143-So Much is also for her
Then after we broke up
For about 5 months my blog site is passive
Then I resumed blogging November 2008
I got inspired by Kuya Didoy's blog
Then that really started everything once again
This time I am not writing to impress
I am writing just to express myself
My thoughts, my feelings and my experiences
Like a high-tech journal
And then after watching the Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Another reason came to my mind
And that is to write everything while it's fresh
Because eventually I will forget about it
Just like my first club experience
I know I wrote about it but I think I lost it
Even though I can still write about it right now
It is not as detailed as the other one
In fact when I'm viewing my blog archive
There's some posts that I already forgot what is about
And it feels good that I am able to go back to those stories
Then next part is the codes before the title
Random Thought Post (RTP) – is about the random things that suddenly pops into my mind
Review Post (RP) – is about the movie reviews and tv shows review and everything that I evaluated
Experience Post (EP) – these posts is about the things that experienced whether it's a problem, special occasion or anything that is happening to me
Poem Post (PP) – these are the poems that I wrote, and would remain poems and not turned in to songs
Lyric Post (LP) – these are the song lyrics that I composed, it's only lyrics it does not have any real melody yet
I made these codes because I find it cool
Like when I am going to tell someone about one of my posts
I would say it like this
“According to RTP#5...” awesome isn't it? :D
I got the idea from The Bro Code from Barney Stinson
I remember he once said
“According to article #32 [I think] of the Bro Code, it is stated...”
That's where I got the whole categorizing idea
I really enjoy blogging it is pretty obvious how much I enjoy it
Now I'm in Post # 75 and who knows
Someday I am writing about Post #750 already
As my mind comes up with more interesting stuffs
And as I deal with life
And as long as I can find something to write about
There is going to be a new entry in my blog site

EP#27: Bonding Bonding
This happened last March 7, 2009
@ Miel's first birthday in Villa Theresa
Well of course all of us would probably be there
After eating all of us gathered in one table
And began planning on our presentation
Of our grandparents
Then for about an hour
We all left the place
Then decided to go to Island Cove
But we stopped at Alah's place for a while
We had dinner there
Then at around 9:00PM I think
We are already in Island Cove
Then we sang at Island Songs
Had a little drink
A pitcher of frozen margarita
Plus a bottle/can of beer for some
Including me of course :D
Of course being an awesome singer
I scored the highest among all of us :D
You know everyone is just having fun
Not talking about their problems
I myself wanted to have a serious talk with Alah
But I decided not to and just let us
Have a good time that night
Part 2 – At Last The Serious Talk
This happened just about a minute ago
We went to Alah's place to get something
Then the much awaited talk between us happened
From the very moment we sat
I asked him about what's the deal between them
I ain't going to spill the details
Just got to respect the privacy
And I think at some point
He just did the right thing
It is pretty much what happened between me and Che
Even though we can push through it
It is not the right thing to do
And I almost heard the same things that Che said to me
I know how bad it hurts
But after looking in the bright side
I saw and appreciated what she did
It was the right thing
And I know it's hard
But sometimes you just have to deal with it

RTP#20: Is Anything Possible?
Just a thought that came to mind
While I was on a ride back to the Burg
Stuck in a little traffic
I began thinking of random things that I usually do
Well I thought of these
Anything is possible
Impossible is only in the state of mind
Well I myself got the never say die attitude
I mean in basketball game
Until there's time there's a chance to win
But let's be real
Let's say your team is trailing 20 points
And you only got one minute left in the game
It would be a miracle
If your team is going to win
Not convincing enough?
Here's what I really thought that made me realize
That not anything is possible
And if you think that anything is possible
Prove it by doing a this
Count the raindrops while it's raining

RTP#19: Is It Good Enough?
This is about my professor handing out awards
For the best reflection paper in the class
I really want to get an award in this
Not expecting to have the first prize though
Just to have my paper named one of the best is good enough
But question is is my paper good enough to be one of the best?
I really don't know
First, is even though I've got good thoughts
The grammatical errors really do hurt me a lot
And in a graded paper it is highly considered
So I don't know how is my grammar in my paper
I did my paper like I'm just blogging
Just like telling an experience
That's how I did it
So I am not so sure if it is good enough
But I really want an award
My cliche is not that strong either
If only she told us that there would be awards
I would've done a better paper
I can say that I have a good paper
Because I've just read it
I followed instructions
Although being my typical self
One element that I'm really missing
Is having wide range of words
As I've said earlier
I made my paper just like a blog post
I made it very easy reading
That even a high-school student could understand it clearly
I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing
And just imagine
I've got nominated for best-actor in that class
And if I'm going to and hopefully receive an award for my paper
How awesome am I? :D

RTP#18: In Your Dreams
This is about the dreams that we are having when we are asleep
Sometimes we experience having a lot of dreams
Sometimes only one but very long one
And the thing is
We cannot really remember these dreams
That we are having every night
Although there are dreams that are remarkable
Just like the following
There are those dreams
That makes us stay in bed longer
And makes us wish that the alarm clock would not ring yet
And when we wake up it will make you close your eyes again
And continue dreaming
There are those dreams
That would wake us up
And make us stay up all night
Whether it's a nightmare, something interesting or just something disturbing
It might scare us or it may elate us
Then we're just up all night
Thinking of it
There are those dreams
That we try to recall in the morning
But we couldn't no matter how hard we try
There are those dreams
That are adventure like
Like we are in a movie or a game
And would make us wonder
Why we had a dream like that
There are those dreams
That would make us smile
That would make us cry
That would make us think
That would make us sleep more
That would make us sleepless
That would make us sweat
That would make us laugh
But no matter what your dream is
It's just a dream
And eventually you'll be back to reality :D
