There's more than billions of other girls
In this world
But I still can't see someone
Who could be more special than you
But it's like living in a dream
These things I want to happen
But it can't really happen
I won't stop
Staring at you
Hugging you tight
Thinking of you
From day to night
From sunrise to sunrise
And don't wake me
Because waking me up
Will make me lose all of these
Yes you're not the the prettiest
But you're something else
And no one else
Could be better than you, the best
And I want to keep my eyes closed
Because it's there that I could see you
Staring at me
Hugging me tight
Smiling at me
From day to night
From sunrise to sunrise
And don't wake me up
Because waking me up
Will make me lose all of these
But one day I woke up from this dream
And I'm shocked on what I saw
It's you
Staring at me
Hugging me tight
Lying beside me
Till the sunrise
And now this is real
No longer a dream
And there's no other girl
That could be compared to you

EP#42: PT Clinic '09 Outing: Caylabne
This happened today May 28 '09 we went to Caylabne Beach Resort at Ternate, Cavite. The one's who are included in this outing are the PT Clinic staffs and our family. We are 9 in the group composed of Me, T-Tel, T-Tin, Anne, Mommy, Kuya Natz, Kuya Nino, Ate Leslie and Ate Ann. We used two cars T-Tin's and Mom's the whole family except for T-Tin were in the Lite Ace and T-Tin together with Kuya Natz picked up the rest of the staffs mentioned above in their respective houses, I think. We were set to leave at 7:00AM but we left the house at 7:30AM. Oh well, that's the way it always goes. Btw I have a cold today and not feeling very well but I really want to go with them so I just thought of being awesome and not being sick and that did the trick.
Then during the road trip it was not really far but it took us I think 1 and a half hour, well I'm not sure because I didn't wear my watch today. On the way to the resort we encountered beautiful nature as seen from both sides of the road. So I started taking pictures using my very awesome MP5 player.
And here we are in front of the gate of the resort, we pulled over to eat snack before entering because it is a no brought food allowed resort. And all of a sudden it rained we stayed there for about 20 minutes and we saw a bus going inside the resort. I thought it was a tourist bus but no they are the Dangerous Drugs something.
Oh well moving on then, so here we are in the resort it's like as if we rented the whole resort we're the only ones who were in it. No not really of course there are other people in there but still it almost looked like a private beach resort.
When we finally settled down we started walking and went to a couple of awesome picture taking spots but it really is a long walk from the beach, not just long but very long. Walking under the extreme heat of the sun and not feeling a hundred percent because of that stupid cold, I am really feeling exhausted after that picture taking.
And after it we went to the restaurant in the resort to eat lunch and beside the restaurant is the deep big pool. It really is deep and in fact it is 7ft and how deep it is for me if I just stand up there and raised my hands up the only thing that you'll be able to see are my fingertips. No joke, it's really that deep, but who cares it's still like me awesome.
Then after eating we went back to the resorts other pool the dirty pool. But we played "taya sa gitna" there and it was really fun. I've been it couple of times wait oh yes twice. Then as time passed by we got tired of playing and transferred to the sea but I was only with T-Tel and Anne at that time and I was the only one who went in the sea. It's kind of scary it feels like a shark is coming after you. And then I saw T-Tin and the others on their way to the deep big pool so I went there as well. And began swimming from end to end and end to end. Then when we all decided to go back to the beach and rent the Aqua Trike. Kuya Natz, T-Tel, Mom and I we're the ones who were left in the deep big pool and I started doing my tumbling dive or my T-Dive.
Then after a short while we all went back to the beach and go Aqua Triking the first ones to go are Kuya Natz and Kuya Nino followed by Ate Ann and Ate Leslie then by Me and T-Tin and then Anne and T-Tel rid after us and the last pair to ride it was Me again and Mom. It was really fun but somehow tiring. We rented it for an hour and we only spent less than 30 minutes after all of us have riden the Aqua Trike. But of course I tried to do it on my own I went around with it twice. Then went back to the deep big pool and started doing T-Dives again.
At around 4:30PM we all went to clean up ourselves and be ready to leave the place. And after taking a shower and dressing up we all left the beach resort but stopped over at the Eagle Viewing Spot still inside the resort and did some picture taking and then left the resort.
We then dropped Kuya Nino off because then ate at Lolo Claro's well I was so tired that I was not able to read the description of what I've ordered properly. I thought it was 1/4 chicken + lumpiang shanghai + pancit canton. But in turned out that it is only lumpiang shaghai and pancit canton. Well my bad. After eating there we went home.
So even though I'm sick I was still able to keep up with them and was able to do the things I wanted such as T-Diving and jump shots. And it looks like from my story we only did few stuffs but I can say that really time flies when you're having fun. And it's been a long time since I've been in a beach but this experience was deifinitely like me, wait for it.. Awesome! Together with my family and the PT staffs just like me we all had a blast today.

EP#41: The Life Changing Approval
If you are thinking that this is about some girl again, no this isn't. So moving on then remember the shifting that I was nagging to you guys about the past weeks and like almost 2 months to date. Well, it is just this week Monday in particular that I started to make a move on that. And today May 20, 2009 I was able to finish the application process.
Here's the detailed version on how I did it.
Friday: It's my Mom who talked to Ma'am Yumang to seek some advice regarding my status and everything. And thanks to their little discussion my Mom was at last satisfied about my current standing, especially in the CoE/CpE field. Therefore she gave me the chance to make the call. To shift or not to CS or IT? Well, at this point I have already decided that I would really be shifting my course/program. But the huge thing that is still "smoky" or unclear to me is that I don't know whether to go for CS or IT. So I then made a schedule of my to do list for the next dew days because I am going to apply for shifting.
Monday: It's my turn to talk to Ma'am Yumang now and as I planned I will talk to her during my vacant period which is 1:30PM. So 1:30PM I went to her office but I hesitated and decided to eat first. And as my food is being cooked I texted her and she replied that she's in her office and she can talk to me right away. What I did is I told the cook that I need to talk to someone and I'll be back after a short while and she agreed with me because I'm a regular customer in there. So I then rushed to Ma'am Yumang's office then I went straight to what I really want to know and that is which is more suited for me CS or IT? The big unanswered question to be answered in just a few moments. So here's what she said a CS graduate focuses more on soft wares, programming is the life of a CS student/graduate. My job would be a pure programmer where in I'll be sitting in front of a computer 8/5. Which is what I really want to be. And on the other hand IT is similar to CS as being a programmer but she said that in IT I won't always be a programmer, but there's quite a number of jobs that I can still do such as system analyst and she mentioned a bunch of others which I've forgotten already. And at the end of the conversation I decided to be a CS student. But as I arrived in Pasig and told the others about everything that happened my Mom and T-Tel in particular told me to pursue IT and not CS. But again the final call is mine let's see what's going to happen.
Tuesday: This is the day where I would start my application, the original plan was I am going leave Pasig at 10:00AM but I was able to leave Pasig at 10:30AM. Yes, I am late this thing doesn't happen very often and also there's one thing that I forgot to bring that I really don't forget usually, my handkerchief. I arrived in Mapua at 11:30AM and I still have a class at 12:00PM so I rushed to the canteen to buy a drink then finished it off while walking to the first office that I need to go to which is the guidance office. Well when I arrived there I saw the nurse's hideout which is that office. Of course, if there's one thing that really attracts me that is a girl in a uniform especially nursing uniforms. Well, there's like 6 girls in there and half of them for me is 7 and higher. I was accommodated very well but they said that I should come back at 4:30PM after my class. And from that moment I sensed that some of these girls are checking me out. Then I still haven't eaten lunch but I still went to my class. And at around 4:20PM I went back to the guidance office again and I was instructed to go to cubicle 6 where I presented my form and have it signed by the counselor. But I was expecting a sort of interview but surprisingly I wasn't asked about anything. So I just asked if every thing's okay now and said thank you then left the cubicle. And the next office is the Student Advising office which is located at W501, yes from the ground floor I need to go up to the fifth floor w/o using the elevator. So there am I, I said that I am applying for shifting and what they said is the person that I need to talk to just went down to the guidance office the office where I was in earlier. They let me log in then gave me a paper with a name then they said present it to the guidance office. At first I went to the OSA office but after a moment of rethinking it I went to the guidance office again. And then I said "Hi, pinabalik po ako dito nung Student Advising and I'm looking for" then I presented the paper, btw the one who took my paper is the 7.75 nursing student, then that guy was just sitting right there then he asked me to come with him. I am still feeling the effect of the five floor stair round trip that I had and still I haven't eaten lunch. Then he began asking me questions in English and in return I answered him in straight English as well, but there are times that my mind is "loading" and grasping for words that I am supposed to answer, that usually don't happen. But I still managed to pull it off. And on my way out I am sweating not big time sweat but you can see it, eew :D and as I am about to open the door one of the female nurses said "oh punas ka muna pawis, ingat ka huh" not directly to me but I know it's for me. I am so tired that I didn't bother looking back to know who among those girls is the one who said that. But hey even if I am looking so stressed I still can get stuffs like that from girls ;D. The last stop for the day is the OSA office I just gave my form and the receptionist said that I should come back after lunch the next day.
Wednesday: I was expecting another interview but when I arrived at the OSA office the receptionist just gave me my form and said that I can leave already, so I just asked where should I go next and went there the Customer Service it is. Then there I presented my shifting form and they gave it back after placing a signature. And then they said that I should go to the Treasurer's office to pay the shifting fee. I thought it's going to cost me some money so I went to the window and said to the cashier "Gusto ko lang po malaman kung magkano yung bayad for shifting?" she said that it's only 50 Pesos, so I paid it and went back to the Customer Service office again then handed out my form then the one who took my form said that I should check out the bulletin board before the enrollment. That's the end of the application for my shifting. Btw the course that I shifted to is IT. Hope that my request would be granted and wish me luck on this one. ;D

RTP#34: Blog Slump
I have not uploaded any post that is written on the same day lately. Why? What's are the reasons behind my so called "blog slump"?
1. My schedule is the first thing to blame. Every Mondays and Tuesdays I'm staying in Pasig. And fyi I am always using my laptop when I am composing and uploading a blog entry. Why not compose it in my laptop then store it in a flash drive then go to a computer shop then upload it there? Well, first of all once I arrive in Pasig my energy level is quite low already so I need to rest for a while then eat dinner then start doing school stuffs then follow it by writing some stuffs and chatting with my cousins then sleep. That's how it works when I am in Pasig. And btw the average time that I arrive in Pasig is 6:00PM. And the earliest time that I go to sleep is at 10:30PM.
2. The disconnected DSL in Cavite. Well this thing is quite a shocker. For almost 2 weeks until yesterday our DSL connection is down. And who to blame of course no one else but those agents who we are calling from time to time and from day to day and still not able to work on our problem.
3. Another reason is the book that I am writing. Yes, I have come up with something to write about. Just wait for it. Sometimes instead of composing a new blog entry I am trying to come up with something new for my book. Remember that dream of seeing a book written by me in a bookstore? Once I've finished this book I can possibly make that dream come true. T-Tin told me that she'd be my editor and she also knows someone who owns a bookstore and that owner knows some publishers that could possibly publish my book. Well as of now I am still far from finishing this thing but I am trying my best to finish it asap.
These 3 reasons are quite simple when taken individually but when these reasons happens at the same time, it's quite a load. But now the only reason that is still on the wall is #3. The others are gone for now. I will try to upload a new entry as often as possible.

PP#5: Request
Praying that someday you'll be mine
Longing for your love
Everything will be fine
All that I am asking for is one chance
So that I'll let you see how real is this feeling that
Everyday is just getting stronger and
God knows that if you'll give me a chance
I won't put it waste
Very seldom that I do something like this but
Ever since we met I felt something different
Magical that's how others describe it
Eagerness to see you everyday is what I felt
One day is a thousand days from enough
Not even a week with you will minimize the gap
Every time I close my eyes it's you I see
Can't stop thinking of you
How I wish you're with me today
And tomorrow and maybe forever
Can't ask for something more because God knows
Ever since that day all I wanted is one chance
Longing for your love
Everything will be fine
All that I am asking for is one chance
So that I'll let you see how real is this feeling that
Everyday is just getting stronger and
God knows that if you'll give me a chance
I won't put it waste
Very seldom that I do something like this but
Ever since we met I felt something different
Magical that's how others describe it
Eagerness to see you everyday is what I felt
One day is a thousand days from enough
Not even a week with you will minimize the gap
Every time I close my eyes it's you I see
Can't stop thinking of you
How I wish you're with me today
And tomorrow and maybe forever
Can't ask for something more because God knows
Ever since that day all I wanted is one chance

I will drive a thousand miles

Just to be with you for a while
To have a chance to see you smile
And before I go I'll hug you tight
And kiss you... Goodnight

Looking at nowhere, daydreaming
Reminiscing, about the little memories we had
It always make me smile
Even if I'm in the hardest times

LP#12: Dream Please Come True
Written: May 13, 2009 @ 10:08AM

If I would be given a chance
To choose a dream to come true
Among the millions of dreams I had
I would choose the one I had last night
First it's you and me holding hands
While walking in a mall with a friend
I clearly saw a picture of our hands
Joined together and my grip is getting tighter
I also saw how it happened
I didn't just grabbed your hand out of nowhere
Slowly like dipping my toes in a pool
To check the temperature of the water
And after doing so
You in return took my hand
And joined them with yours
But wait I'm just getting started
The next part of my dream
Would be the part which made me choose this dream
Among the million dreams I had
Is the one that I want to be real
You and I sitting on a bed
Facing each other
While you're looking down and writing
I am staring at you
Out of the blue I asked you
What's up with this?
And that one earlier?
Are we dating now?
While you're still doing your thing you said "Yes"
I was so surprised that I asked you "Really?"
Not once but twice
Still you said "Yes"
Then before I asked you again for the last time
I made you look into my eyes
By calling you by your name twice
And tapping the bed twice to get your attention
And doing a gesture that says look into my eyes
While looking straight at each other
For the last time I asked and you said "Yeah"
Then you went back on doing your thing
And after a short pause
Slowly I moved closer to you and hugged you
You hugged me as well
My mouth is near your left ear
I whispered "I love you"
Then you whispered back "I love you too"
Then it's like the final picture in a movie
You and me hugging each other
My vision was so clear
That I even know what we're wearing
You were wearing a white shirt plus jeans
And I am wearing a black with white stripes jacket plus jeans
Definitely it is the perfect ending
Simple yet unforgettable
And I hope this dream would be real
Because I can't wait on what's going to happen next
By: Benj Medina III
If I would be given a chance
To choose a dream to come true
Among the millions of dreams I had
I would choose the one I had last night
First it's you and me holding hands
While walking in a mall with a friend
I clearly saw a picture of our hands
Joined together and my grip is getting tighter
I also saw how it happened
I didn't just grabbed your hand out of nowhere
Slowly like dipping my toes in a pool
To check the temperature of the water
And after doing so
You in return took my hand
And joined them with yours
But wait I'm just getting started
The next part of my dream
Would be the part which made me choose this dream
Among the million dreams I had
Is the one that I want to be real
You and I sitting on a bed
Facing each other
While you're looking down and writing
I am staring at you
Out of the blue I asked you

EP#40: Mother's Day '09
This is all about what happened last Sunday, the year '09 Mother's Day.
First thing in the morning I went to my Mom's room coincidentally with Anne and Robin to greet her a happy mother's day. Then I ate breakfast and started preparing myself because we are set to leave at 10 AM. So as usual I finished ahead of time. But when we're about to leave there's one thing that is missing and that's the car keys, so we have to find it before we can leave. We were able to find the keys around 10:30AM already. Delayed on our schedule we still need to drop by at Mommy Zeny's place to greet her a happy mother's day as well.
So here we are our first stop at Mommy Zeny's house it's less than five minutes drive from our house. So we were there at 10:40AM, then we greeted her then had a little chat then they made us eat a cake then when we're about to leave Anne suddenly said that T-Tin's stucked in traffic in Bacoor and is going to MOA, that's where we're also going btw. So our grandparents overheard it and made us eat lunch there as well and we were able to leave their house at 11:15AM already.
We were able to arrive at MOA pass 1:00PM and T-Tin is getting her nails done and T-Tel's one her way. We were able to gather up at around 1:30PM already then T-Tel and T-Tin had their lunch at Chiggy's I was with them but I didn't eat. And Anne and Mom went around to window shop. Then at around 2:15PM we met with at Krispy Kreme where I saw a 8.75 just beside our table. Then we left Krispy Kreme at 2:40PM and went to RP (Robinsons Place Manila) because it's too crowded in MOA considering it's size it's still very crowded.
So here we are in RP where we went around for about 3-4 hours before we decided to look for some place to eat. Then we decided to have our dinner at KKK and we sat at one of it's large kubos at the middle of the terrace. And everything about that restaurant is just like me, awesome. Especially the bottomless sago-gulaman and the crispy kangkong, plus you can access that place through the elevator. A perfect place to have a date.
Then after eating and walking around the mall for a little while we separated ways, because Mom and I are going to stay in Pasig because it's a Sunday and I have a class the following day. And as my Mom is driving she missed one place that she should make a turn so we U-turned and I suggested another way but she didn't listened. So in the end we we're sort of lost. And was able to arrive in Pasig almost at 11:00PM already, we left RP at 9:15 btw.
And when we arrived in Pasig like Dennise said it's over populated almost all of our family are there. Then I greeted all the moms there. Then sat to have chat with all of them. Then they told us that Dale was locked in Papa and Mama's room because the doorknob was broken. And what made it even funnier and it became an instant classic when Papa said imagine this at a 80+ age he still was able to come up with this joke of his. Where he said "Pag nakulong ka kasi wag ka mag panic, kumanta ka lang (then he started singing) nakulong ako nakulong ako buksan niyo pinto buksan niyo pinto" I was lmao on that one. Classic!
Well after all of them left Dennise and I still had a little chat then at 12:30AM we went to our respective rooms to sleep.
That's probably one of the best Mother's Day celebration I had.
To all the Moms out there belated happy mother's day!!!

EP#39: Happy 8 Day
Well this thing happened like two weeks ago. It was a Monday and this happened by sheer luck and coincidence but still it is remarkable.
It all started when I rid the FX on my way to school, I left the house in Pasig 10 minutes late from the time that I supposed to leave which is 7:30AM so I left the house aroud 7:40AM. And luckily the FX still has one vacant seat which I occupied then off we go. Then I am seated in the middle row behind the passenger seat of the front row. And beside me is a 8.25. Well it is still vacation for the other schools so it is very seldom that I'll get the chance to sit beside a 8 or higher in the FX during this period. And also if you're going to think of it if I wasn't late for 10 minutes I would most probably be sitting in a different place at that time. Because that's how time works in Manila every minute counts. Then also in the jeepney ride to SM Manila I also encountered a 8. Then while walking on my to Mapua I also encountered several 8s or higher.
Basically during this day everywhere I go except the male restroom I've been seeing 8s or higher. I thought it is my birthday.
And just to clarify things when I said I am seeing 8s everywhere 8 is the least there's also some 9s. And those 8s and 9s are only their points which means with the bonus points they could possibly reach 13-14.
I'll be introducing to you 12.1. Now 12.1 is a girl that I know and I like. 12.1 fyi is her number with bonus points already. Well this was based on the improved numbers criteria of mine but she was a 9.2 based on the first one.
Well I was sitting in the school gym my row is barely occupied then as time goes by there's this girl who sat like 4 seats to my right. And from my view she sorts of look like 12.1. And I can't help but look at her from time to time. But of course it's not 12.1 because if it's her we're talking and sitting next to one another already.
Weird huh, well that's how it goes even though I was able to see a lot of 8s that day one girl still stood out against the rest, and that girl is 12.1

RTP#33: A Foggy Road
This is also a late post but a not so late post just a slightly late post. So what is this about this is the about my future. And as the title says it is foggy so it is not so clear but I know where I am heading.
Well first of all that I am officially not staying in the Burg anymore and I don't think that I am still going back and stay in that place in the future. As of now the plan is for me to stay in Cavite until we found a place where T-Tel, Anne and Me are going to stay. So I am going to stay here in Cavite before the new school year starts I think. And it looks like that things are just going okay given that situation, but not for me, well for you to understand clearly this is what I did throughout my 2 years in college. In terms of where I am staying.
1st year 1st term - 1st year 3rd term: I am traveling more than 3 hours a day (average) from Cavite to Mapua and from Mapua to Cavite.
1st year 4th term: I moved in Pasig and travel time was cut to 1 and a half hour a day from Pasig to Mapua and from Mapua to Pasig.
2nd year 1st term - 2nd year 3rd term: I moved in the Burg and travel time was cut to an hour a day via FX and 40 minutes a day via LRT.
And there you can see that I've been living at different places throughout my college, and I often joke about this but it is sort of hard for me at some point, and that is I often say that I have many houses. And in a month or two there would be a plus one in the places where I lived in throughout college. But my thing here is it's really kinda hard because once I found the rhythm that's when I get better results. I am very steady right now at the Burg, then I am shifting back to going back and forth to Cavite again. And once again I'll be experiencing the everyday traffic stress. Then after a month once I get used to it once again I'll be moving to somewhere else again, then there bang! Right on the money! I am going to start adjusting to the new place again and repeat the whole process of getting back to the rhythm once again.
And then the next thing is my shifting to another course.
Well I am shifting because of a very practical reason. And that reason would be now a days even non-computer related graduates are programmers and that's what I want to be a programmer I only took CoE because of the simple reason that I would get the advantage among the others once I apply for a job. But back in the real world our job is so in demand that they even consider hiring people that got a little programming background and then train them to get better. And I am a year delay right now, and if I am going to shift I will be cutting off that delay and graduate earlier. But of course shifting is a long process in our school. So I don't know when I am going to get approved for shifting.
And then comes the last one that is bumming me out.
Most probably and I hope that next term I would be enrolling as an IT or CS student already and thing is I am also going to change my campus. So that's another big change to consider and it's still unclear because of the place on where I am going to stay because that would affect how I am going to travel to Mapua Makati.
And another thing that is unclear for me and that is regarding you know who, but right now I also don't want to get involved in a relationship because even she is a very awesome person like me I don't want to share this load that I am carrying with her. Once I got off this foggy road and she's still there which I hope, then it's the right time for me to do something about this.
Despite carrying this things I still manage to do well. And that's why even it seems like I am joking I always thank God that He made me this awesome, it's true because if He didn't I am probably breaking down right now.

LP#11: Hurry
One day I found myself
Alone in a room
Nowhere to go
Got a bomb right in front of me
And it only got 3 minutes till it explodes
Tick tock tick tock
Clock's ticking and I ain't moving
All I do is thinking got to act now
Or else I'll be saying goodbye
And when there's nowhere to go
And you're all alone
With the world against you
What do you do?
After the moment of shock faded
I started moving and no time is wasted
Because there's another way to end this
There's only one piece that is missing
To conquer it all
But I've got be careful
Because like defusing a bomb
With a single mistake
And all will be over
No I don't want that ending
Even though my whole life will be changing
It's a risk I'm willing to take
And will only be make and not break
For the world is so tough
Sometimes you've got to risk it all
And let your self be vulnerable to failure
Defy the odds and look forward for more in the future

RTP#32: 100th Post!!!
First of all I really didn't expected that I would be able to write 100 posts for my blogsite. Actually it is more than a hundred already if I am considering the most controversial ones that I didn't post and will not post. And this is another milestone for my blogsite so that would mean that this post should tell a special story. And that story that I picked for this one is "The Plan" where I'll talk about my plans after I graduate. Even though it is far from now I already know what I am going to do with the money that I'd be earning from my future job and how am I going to live my life.
I have two plans actually one is when I am not single and in a serious relationship and the other one would be when I am single. But let me start discussing this thing that I would really like to have that doesn't involve any of the two parameters given above. And that is to buy my own condo unit aka my bachelor's pad or b-pad.
I want my b-pad to be 2 story because I want to have the pole thing that is similar to what the firemen uses where they just slide down to get down from the 2nd floor to the ground floor, I really think that it would be really cool. No, not cool... awesome. Then my b-pad would have a plasma tv and I am thinking of what game console to buy, and I also want to have a super desktop computer. I want my b-pad alone to impress everyone who sets foot in it especially the ladies of course. And also I want it to be centralized. The location would be either in Rockwell or Serendra well I am still thinking of it.
Then let me proceed in discussing my plan when I have a serious girlfriend at this point. Well I am telling you she's one lucky girl, we'll be eating dinner either at Greenbelt or just to make things easier to understand I will take her to really good places to eat and hang out. And of course she would have all-access in my b-pad. Car is not my priority once I finished furnishing my b-pad then I think buying a car would be next in the list.
And if ever I am single then it's the time to make the Philippines the States. Once my b-pad is furnished then I would start dating girls, party, hang-out with my friends in bars or in Starbucks. I would be living the life as the say.
As you can see my plan is really simple. Of course I also got plans regarding helping my family and also my friends have access in my b-pad as well.
They say "life starts at 40", "life starts at 21/18" and so on. But for me life would start a year or 2 as you earn from your job. That would be at age 23 or 24 most probably.
So therefore for me life starts at 23.5.

RTP#31: A Bucket of Ice Cold Water Please
I only posted 2 blog posts last month, but fyi I didn't really stopped blogging, I was just so lazy to do anything lazy enough to ignore posting my stories. I was so hooked in my facebook-cation playing games in that site and playing Wii. As a matter of fact I expected to have more than 15 posts for that month but I was able to come up with 10 only.
And also during that vacation is when I've decided to apply for shifting in the incoming term. Well no one hold me back from it. But here's the thing it's clearly my decision to do such thing so I'm also the one who should put an act on it.
But...
Ever since the first week of school everything is still unstable for me. And it's only in this week that I have settled down a bit. Because the original plan was I am going to stay at the Burg, then we decided that I would go home in Cavite instead. But, due to the overwhelming traffic jam that I have experienced during the first day of class, I decided to go home in Pasig during school days instead.
The plan that I had in mind was from Mondays - Wednesdays [morning], I'll be staying in Pasig and from Wednesdays [after class] - Sundays I'll be in Cavite. Why is my plan like that? Because I can just go to Manila with T-Tin during Fridays and also come back with her the same day, she has a car so that's why travel time would be lessen. And during Thursdays I have no class.
So this is the first week where I was able to execute my plan perfectly.
But...
I haven't made a move on shifting yet, and I need to make a move asap or else I will not make it. I won't be able to apply for shifting this term.
So that's why I am asking for a bucket of ice cold water so that I will pour it on me so that I would be awaken and start moving.
And also during that vacation is when I've decided to apply for shifting in the incoming term. Well no one hold me back from it. But here's the thing it's clearly my decision to do such thing so I'm also the one who should put an act on it.

The plan that I had in mind was from Mondays - Wednesdays [morning], I'll be staying in Pasig and from Wednesdays [after class] - Sundays I'll be in Cavite. Why is my plan like that? Because I can just go to Manila with T-Tin during Fridays and also come back with her the same day, she has a car so that's why travel time would be lessen. And during Thursdays I have no class.
So this is the first week where I was able to execute my plan perfectly.
But...
I haven't made a move on shifting yet, and I need to make a move asap or else I will not make it. I won't be able to apply for shifting this term.
So that's why I am asking for a bucket of ice cold water so that I will pour it on me so that I would be awaken and start moving.
EP#38: First Day of the 8th Term
This is it April 20, 2009 the school opening day. I woke up at 5:30AM and I immediately ate breakfast then took a bath and dressed up. Still had a lot of time on the clock I was able to finish preparing at 6:05AM I scheduled myself to leave at 6:45AM. So I went online just to drain my energy in Mafia Wars. Then I was able to finish that at 6:25AM. So I am about to leave but there's one thing that is missing in my bag and that would be the third most important thing for me to bring and that would be my Certificate of Matriculation (CM), first would be my wallet and second is my school ID. I was able to find it and then left the house at 6:35AM of course ahead of my schedule. And I was able to get in the bus at exactly 6:45AM. Because I am one bus ahead of my schedule I expected to arrive earlier, but this is a major letdown.
Here's a little story why I am so disappointed about this trip. Well I've done the same routine for about 9 months and the average travel time would be 1 hour and 30 minutes considering the traffic.
And in this trip it took 2 hours and 15 minutes to reach Manila City Hall and I still need to walk for about 8 minutes to reach my room. And I don't like being late especially on the first day of class. Fortunately my professor isn't there yet. And my first class is COE128: Discrete Math. Surprisingly I know many people in this class I was only expecting Guiller and Roi to be the ones I know but it turned out that some of my blockmates like Tom, Rhodz, Benes, Jaytee and Daryl were also there and also Kurt a classmate from COE116L. And I am relieved when the professor entered and it is not Ma'am Joyce Santos, who is a professor who I don't really like. And also in my next class she could be my prof but she also isn't so what the hell I got pretty lucky this time. By the way my second class is COE116 lec. Then we (Rhodz, Tom and Me) had lunch at Suqui's. Then after it I went to my third class already, my Math class, well Guiller said that our professor wouldn't be a terror and it turned out that he is right about this, because our professor is Sir Kit-Kat Villaluz, according to other students when he is your prof you have a better chance of passing the subject already. After that class is my vacant. And I just bought something to drink the went to the school gym and watched the varsity training. Then I went in my last class for the day with high expectations regarding the girls in the class. Well my subject is SS10 even frosh's can take that subject and also higher batches so that's why even in a school where male population is more dominant I am quite expecting some girls to make that subject more interesting. My professor here is Boy Abunda! Of course I am kidding, he just look like him in some way. But I heared he gives hard quizzes so I need to do some studying in this subject as well.
Then after my last class I immediately went straight home, I went to the Bus loading station and I let the first bus pass because I wont get any comfortable seat already because majority of the seats are taken. I decided to go on the next bus and it started to move at 4:00PM and I was expecting to arrive in Cavite at 6:00PM the most but instead I arrived at 6:30PM.
So having a grand total of 4 hours and 45 minutes for my travel time for that day I decided that I would stay in Pasig during school days. And that's where I am right now.

RTP#30: From A Refreshing Vacation A Very Rough Road
From a Refreshing Vacation to a Rough Road
Well I am studying in a quarter term school so that would mean that we are having four firsts day of school and more but shorter vacations than the others. In this post I would be talking about two things first is my most recent vacation which is by the way quite longer than usual and the other one is a preview of what's going to happen in the next couple of months.
This might be a long one so I am going to start to tell about what happen to my vacation right now.
So being a very energetic guy and being the kind of person who doesn't want to put time to waste I began thinking of things that would make this vacation meaningful and not just spend it by bumming out. Well I've blogged about this so just read it. And things didn't turn out the way I planned it to happen. Here's a list of what I did this vacation:
1. I played Facebook games such as Rock Legends!, Mafia Wars, Pet Society and Texas Hold'em Poker. And I really spent a lot of time playing those games everyday. In fact I am 6 levels shy of reaching the max level in Rock Legends as of today.
2. I played a lot of badminton in the previous weeks.
3. I watched HIMYM all over again and became more awesome.
4. I slept a lot and I think I became a little taller because of that.
5. I went swimming once.
6. How can I forget I played Wii a lot especially on the last week of my vacation.
7. I went to the mall several times.
8. I went to graduation celebrations three times.
9. I was able to hang out with one of my high school best friend on one Saturday afternoon.
10. I moved out from the Burg.
11. Had a not so holy week. (Check out EP#37)
12. Of course I still blog, but I am lazy in terms of posting my stories.
13. I was able to write several songs also.
14. I watched Wrestlemania 25 via Internet and just last night (Saturday) at one of the channels in the TV.
15. I attempted to record my own album.
Those are pretty much the highlights of my vacation, well I expected it too be boring but the tables have been turned around. Now I still wish that vacation is still on going but it is over. And I am quite confused of what I should feel about going back to school. I am a little excited because I am getting rich once again. But I know that I would be facing one hell of a term.
Why?
Then we proceed to the second and last thing that I am going to talk about for now.
Thing is I still arranged my schedule in such a way that would be better if I am going to stay at the Burg. But there's a little change of plans so I just have to deal with this for now. And another thing is I am going to start applying for shifting this term. And that would mean that aside from my usual load in my schedule I would be needing to spend some time in school even after my classes are finished just to fix things that has something to do with my shifting. Again it may look like things are not going to be that hard I just think that it would be. But not this time I am once again going to adjust in terms of traveling to school and from school. And there's also something that is meant to change things again and that is according to T-Tel the highway is going to get fixed and would cause major traffic. So therefore I would probably be staying in Pasig instead of staying here in Cavite. Then when they already find a place where T-Tel, Anne and me would stay and also with our Mom, then I would be living there instead of living in Pasig or Cavite.
Well I can definitely say that this is one wild term I am going to face and so help me God and please make me more awesome so that I would be able to get through this more smoothly.
And I am going to leave you guys with this and this is what should always be on my mind right now as I am going to a rough road for the next couple of months.

RTP#29: Weird
A very common word that is used to describe something different, odd or unique. Well this is not a English lesson so I'm just going straight to the main thing now, and that is lately things have been pretty weird for me. And just to prove it I'm going to list down the things that I really find weird in some way. It is me speaking so expect some of not so weird stuff that I still find weird at some point.
1.I didn't blog about several things already, well it's okay if those are RTPs but no no I passed on at least 4 EPs. [Why weird? Of course I blog almost 85% that happened to me.]
2.My average time of surfing the net is like about 4 hours a day, that's the average when I'm here in Cavite. And just today I went online at 8:40PM already and logged out at 9:20PM. It's not that I don't have anything to do. I mean I can definitely kill more than 2 hours by playing at Facebook alone. And this did not just happened today, these past three days I think my average online hours per day is down to 2 hours. [Of course, I can't blog without getting online, silly me]
3.I wrote two songs on a notebook and not straight to my laptop, and I wrote those 2 songs in less than 40 minutes combined [The last time I did that is about half a year ago when I still don't have my laptop, talking about the thing that I wrote in my notebook and not that I wrote those songs pretty fast]
4.I am really having a hard time sleeping lately, I mean even after a very intense badminton game I still can't sleep even though I want to already. Oh no it's not because of insomnia. I am not going to spill out this one.
5.I can't stop thinking about the missing element in #4, the one which I didn't spill out.
6.I can't come up with any RTPs lately except for this post.
7.I am no longer affected about the Phoenix Suns not able to reach the playoffs this year. [I am a huge Suns fan since like Steve Nash came and until now I am]
8.I watched HIMYM Seasons 1-4 again and I am twice as awesome as before... hahaha [Just wanted to end this list on a high note]
Let's be real life is full of changes and life is fast-paced and if you can't keep up with the changes you'll be left behind. But keep in mind if you don't want things to change you can really do something about it. First thing is you have to know how to take a pause and think and realize these things that could go wrong along the way and then think about a resolve and maybe get a one step ahead of it.

EP#37: A Not So Holy Week
A Not So Holy Week
Well this is a late post, I've been a little lazy in blogging lately but I will still write about those things that I wanted to write about including this year's Holy Week.
We spend Holy Week in Pasig and originally here are the activities that we are doing every year:
Mandy Thursday: Mass and Bisita Iglesia around Pasig [in the evening]
Good Friday: Confession [in the afternoon]
Black Saturday: BLD-Easter Vigil [in the evening]
Easter Sunday: Mass
So that's the usual Holy Week routine for us during the past couple of years but this year's Holy Week was totally different.
First of all I got sick during Mandy Thursday I am having a very unusual sickness that I call the Suner (sa-ner: a fever caused by the heat of the sun). I am only 100% like 4 hours in a day the rest of it I am feeling like in a beach in Hawaii or in the middle of an ice burg in Alaska.
And then while I am eating dinner I heard that they are talking about this Station of the Cross thing at Boni High, and they said that this is the first time that it is going to happen and you are going to carry a cross. So I find it awesome. Plus it is going to be held at Boni High. But one thing is blocking me in going to the "Walkway" as they call the event, and that is because I have this stupid suner. After eating I went back to my room and I drank my medicine and I am feeling really bad at the moment. But I said to myself that there's no way that I am missing on this one because I got this stupid suner. And therefore I also began to get ready and then told them that I am going with them. Well I know that I only got an hour or an hour and a half to stay in this state. And then here we are at Boni High the Walkway didn't turn out to be what I expected which is throughout the course you'll be given a cross and you'll carry it till you finish the very last station. But still it was nice and I've get the chance to experience it. And things turned out as expected for me, just minutes after finishing the last station, I began to feel cold again. And then I found JR (one my cousins) sitting inches away from a pretty girl who was crying because of the Walkway I think. So I sat in the middle of them but of course I did not talk to the girl because I am with my family and most probably she is too.
Then Good Friday my original plan is I'll be playing Left 4 Dead with my cousins, but because I have suner I stayed in the room and rested throughout the day, and also they didn't go to have a confession this day instead they only hanged out in the house, I am referring to my family by the way.
Then Black Saturday my suner is gone!!! And then they said that we are going to Trinoma that day and we did. So I spent Black Saturday in Trinoma with my family, and eventually we were not able to attend the BLD-Easter Vigil. And we arrived at Pasig at around 9:30PM.
Of course I am not going to forget about telling my Easter Sunday story. Well nothing really special happened this day we just went to Church to hear Mass then that's it. But also I am free to play Rock Legends again because that's the thing that I fast for the Holy Week.
What I realized at the end of this week is that it is really made for families to have time to have some quality time together. And that is what I experienced during that week. Even though we did not do the things that we usually do I bet all of us found this Holy Week different yet better at some point. And one more thing it is my first time to fast on something and what did I get after that nothing, I mean I turned down playing it for a week and at some point I really want to play but I insisted. Oh wait just now I realized something that I got from that fasting, and that is a story to tell about the fasting that I did and very proudly I would say that once in my life I was able to fast on something.

RTP#28: The Burg
Well another chapter is finished thus another will unfold. The Burg was where I've been staying during school days for the past 9 months. Wow! Time really flies when you're having fun. I love that place and it made me a better person. Too bad the time has come where I need to move out and relocate once again.
Staying at the Burg really made me grow as a person. I became more independent, I learned how to manage my time properly, I developed self-discipline when it comes to studying, I learned how to budget my money better and also I learned a lot from my roommates.
Well speaking of my roommates I am giving a huge THANK YOU to this guys. They are the type of people who you can talk about anything and just like a friend said to me "may sense kausap". These four guys are really cool and responsible as well. Yes we drink like 10 times in a month but we know when is the right time and not the right time to. And also yes we talk about everything from the daily experiences at school or at work, the girls, the high-school memories, the problems in school, girls, family or even those things that bothers us.
A lot of memories were made at unit 1211. Friendships are made, mini-drinking sessions are held, numerous and remarkable movies and tv shows were watched, bets are won and lost in NBA 2K9 and also the fiercest Mortal Combat battles.
And what would I miss about the Burg and around it?
Everything. My roommates, my friends, the drinking sessions [I'm gonna miss beer!!!], the window where you can see the LRT and get some fresh air, the siren of the firetrucks, the hilarious experiences, the weird Korean neighbor who knocks his ceiling which causes a lot of noise [but this guy already left like since January I think or even before it], the very sloppy elevator, the pretty girls that you will see at the lobby and around the Burg as you go outside, Dat's Mix, Sinangag Express [SEX], Burger Machine [BurMac], videoke at Prov [a lot of memories in this place], Munch Gulp [also here], Tropical Hut [Trop], 10Q, United Pharmacy [UP], University Mall [UM], Maldita's convenience store, my I'm also studying at La Salle jokes, the pest controls, the sleepless nights because of cramming for a project to be submitted the next day, the WWE pay-per-views, the DotA and L4D nights, the FHM and Maxim magazines, the complains on the NBA Live Top 5 plays of the day or I must say the LeBron James Top 5 Plays of the day?
If there's anything I failed to mention I'm sure I'm gonna miss it too.
I won't forget this time of my life the time that I would say that Life is TAFT!

RTP#27: The Light Bulb
I am the type of person who comes up with brilliant ideas out of nowhere. And just earlier today I had this one idea that could change my whole life. I am so thrilled about this idea that I want to make a move on it the next day.
It's a good thing to have this kind of thinking but what I realized is that not all ideas should be implemented or should be put into act. I am referring to this shifting to accounting thing, I mean I don't even know what an accountant really do and I even sort of thought that I would shift to that course.
This is like the dream I once had about months ago when my Dad appeared on a dream and said to me that I should take nursing instead of COE, I followed it up with an act already we began inquiring at other schools but I know for myself that I can't really handle the load of a nursing student and in the end I still chose what I really want and that is to be a Computer Programmer.
Well in this whole accounting stuff I only thought of that because at some point I want to make a contribution to their industry as a tribute to my grandparents who supported my education. And that's where I thought of I've already learned what I needed, to be a programmer. And it's time to learn about what I am going to work on to give some pay back. I also thought about if there's anyone who is a programmer and also a CPA?
But I also realized that if I am going to leave COE and shift to Accounting then I am like starting College again and I will put everything to waste and that made all the difference in the world again. That simple realization woke me up on this daydream like a cold water splashed on me or even like my head bumped into something really hard.
So if I am going to be offered with something in the future just for me to change to accounting, the answer would be NO!!! I didn't work this hard to be a programmer and had numerous no sleep at all days and just put it all away.
Again like I've said I am still thinking on how I can possibly help the said industry as a programmer and not a CPA-Programmer.
One more thing that I realized is that I am really good in thinking ideas but in executing them? Hmm... not so well. And that's why I always say that I should be a coach of a basketball team than a player in the court because I only need to think of strategies and let my team do the execution.
To end this post I thought of naming my "out of nowhere brilliant ideas thinking" and from now on I will call it The Light Bulb, what up? :D Yeah like in the cartoons if one just had an idea a light bulb will suddenly appear.
