My boss (the best boss in the whole wide world...hehe) asked me to scan this comic strip. Aside from the humor we get from the simple inquisition of a son to his father about man's certain attitude towards driving, we realize that it is so true.
Hindi ko alam...hindi ako marunong mag-drive(though I love to learn) kung ano ang nag-uudyok sa isang tao na magalit sa kapwa niya driver sa gitna ng kalsada lalo na kung nagit-gitan siya.
Is it because maybe he has personal issues troubling him and then here comes a reckless driver(maybe drunk, and like him has personal issues as well) in the midst of T.R.A.F.F.I.C and this reckless driver gets on this other guy's way and then boom!...You know what's happen next.
Hindi ko sinasabing mga lalaki lang ang kadalasang walang manners and right conduct sa pagmamaneho. Subalit sila ang madalas na nasasangkot sa mga ganitong gulo sa kalsada. Napakaraming kaso na ng patayan ang nangyari dahil sa simpleng away sa trapik. Kamakailan lang ay nahuli ang isang suspek sa pagpatay sa isang anak ng isang government official dahil muli sa away sa kalsada sa gitna na madugong engkwentro Ilang beses na din na ako mismo ay nakapanood ng pagtatalo ng 2 drayber dahil hindi nagbigay ang isa. Mga pagmumura, dirty fingers, mga paghahamon ng away.
At ilang beses na din na bang pinuna ng mga lalaking drayber ang kahinaan ng mga babae sa pagmamaneho? At dahil sa babae ako...nasasaktan ako pag nakakarinig ako ng mga ganitong komento.
Hindi isyu kung babae o lalaki ang may hawak sa manibela at may dala sa sasakyan. Hindi isyu ang kasarian.
Meet Kiki, Boy Wonder, alive and well after eight days under the rubble of earthquake-blitzed Port au Prince.
Kiki was saved after an incredible operation, in the Nazan district of the Haitan capital, mounted by US earthquake experts.
The heroes and heroines were members of urban rescue squads from New York and Virginia, some of whom had been involved in the 9/11 horrors of New York in 2001.

(i saw this this article and photo and instantly showed us how in the midst of tragedy a simple heroism can touch our hearts and change our lives forever...:)
First times are always unforgettable. I still believe in making resolutions and listing your goals/plans and all the things you want to achieve for the whole year and for the coming years..but mine aint complete yet...hehe.
I started 2010 with a bang I must say. Yes because for the first time (yes as in first) I went to Star City!!!! yipppeee. Akalain nyo ba na sa tagal na ng buhay ko sa mundong ito ay ngayon pa lang ako nakapunta dun...hahah.
Carnivals are always fun. It caters not only to children but adults alike for it brings back the child in all of us na walang ibang iniisip kundi ang magsaya at maglaro.
I didn't dare try to ride death-defying rides like what I call it. Just a thought of it parang mamamatay na ako. But I'm praying that someday I have the guts and courage for I envy those people who dare to try and conquer it. Someday..in the future I will. One item in my bucket list.
For now I would like to share our Snow world adventure (na sobrang na-enjoy kung hindi lang parang namanhid na pati ilong ko sa sobrang lamig) with this picture:
5 hours and 20 minutes remaining and I’m outta here.
Got a difficult time to write this post actually. I have a lot of things in my mind for the past month, for the last 2 weeks, for the last three days, for the last 24 hours and even up to now at exactly 1: 28 in the afternoon. But though there are a lot of things to write I am literally lost for words.
And I remember this words that someone has said to me back in college “when there are a lot of things in mind and you don’t know how to start…then let your heart speaks.
While sitting on my chair and staring at the monitor with a blank word document right on my face I look at all the scripts I made for almost 6 months of my stay as a ‘writer’. I scanned my very first few scripts with all the remarks / revisions / violent reactions..hehe / suggestions / and love letters of the dubbers (as we used to call it) and upon seeing it I know deep inside that somehow I’m gonna miss it. I look around the office while I let that mushy love song play to serve as my background music…(yes umaarte ako at nagpapakasenti at this point, pagbigyan na…)
My decision to leave my present job in a media production company and hop in to another job in an advertising agency is not easy though most of my friends are really surprised when they learned the news and told them I’m gonna start as early as possible. Yes, I admit I’m kinda impulsive sometimes (or most of the time?) on some things but I can say that I really give my best effort to think carefully and weigh things for me. And I guess as you aged (oh my, no!) your views and opinion on some things in life, love and work and even your priorities gradually changes that in one way or another influence all the decisions that you’re going to do in your life. For all those sleepless nights I had contemplating whether I’m gonna leave or not I also asked myself this question “ Why are you gonna give up your present job for a much more nakakalokang pressure-packed job? Why do you want to subject yourself again to a job with bigger responsibilities na nakakawindang? Yes…some of you who happen to read this one might think that it’s because the offer is definitely much higher. And I don’t want to sound hypocrite if I’m going to say that…no of course not…because come on guys…(sino ba ang ayaw na malaki ang suweldo? Siguro may sira ang ulo nun…) But although it’s true it’s not the only reason I decided to leave.
I guess I’m at point in my life now that I’m seeking for growth not only in personal terms but in terms of career. Kung hindi ngayon kailan pa?
I will always be that risk taker person…I know there’s no turning back but I don’t wanna wake up one morning with full of regrets asking myself why I didn’t dare to try.
I’m not comfortable staying at my comfort zones. Sometimes we need to learn to be comfortable at situation and places where we’re not most comfortable of because when we learn to conquer our fears, do the things we never imagine we can do and being able to turn our weaknesses into strengths that’s the only that time we can say that yes…we become a whole better person. And you can finally say…I did it!
And although my decision maybe not be acceptable to some, don’t worry because you’re not going to be accountable for whatever the outcome is. It’s only me; myself and nobody else will be accountable and responsible to whatever decision I’ll make in my life.
Starting tomorrow my whole world will be totally different. Well aside from changing again my profile in facebook and friendster account. Writing scripts will be replaced with writing business letters and correspondents. The usual internet session will be replaced by attending to customers / client calls. Checking my email account vs. checking my boss account. The comfort of just sitting the whole day in the office will be replaced now by attending to some events and activities required. No more ym sessions, no more unlimited access to the internet. But rest assured I’m not gonna give up writing..period.
2 hours remaining and I’m outta here.
I looked around once again to my “former office to be” located on one of the many confusing streets here in Makati. I looked at the people whom I may never see again especially those people who have touched my life in so many ways they just don’t have any idea of. Surely, certainly I’m gonna miss them. Teena, Joeven, Krystal…yes those people who made my stay in my “former office to be” an enjoyable one.
Our front desk officer Ate Notic who have been so nice to me from the first day she saw me. Our maintenance personnel Norilyn and Kuya Ronald for being so sweet and kind. (Parang thank you speech sa isang awarding ceremony ito ah…pagbigyan at masaya..) My former boss, Ms. Rachel, all those people who have been my acquaintances and have shared little moments together even for just a short period of time thanks guys!
It’s never easy and actually you always end up hurting every time you say goodbye. But as what I learned from Mitch Albom (uy, parang close kami) there’s really no goodbye because if there’s an end there will always be new beginnings. As I will start anew for my new job that means a new beginning for me and a new role in my life to fill in as there will be new other persons to fill the position that I will leave.
I never know what’s gonna happen but I’m sure that I’ll wake up one morning with no regrets because I’m not afraid to dare to try.
1 hour and 30 minutes remaining and I’m finally outta here.
This is one of a kind romance started last year. My romance...his romance...our romance
A not so ordinary one
It has been full of ups and downs...literally
It's actually shaky at times..no I guess a lot of times.
I've stumbled, almost fell down
That's why there are times I think I should give up and avoid him
But I just can't..I just simply cannot.
As there are many reasons why I love him... there are much much more reasons why I hate him.
This is our romance...
My romance with LRT - a.k.a: LIGHT RAILWAY TRANSIT
Gosh...what an introduction... hehe
Since I started working here in Manila MRT and LRT has always been one of my primary mode of transportation just to be able to get to workplace or anywhere else faster(really now) cheaper (yeahhh...)and more convenient (????????????????????) Though it's starting to get so conducive as each passing day commuters (I'm one of them) choose to pushed and be pushed and be stepped upon (if you're luckier enough)just to be able to get inside the train and vice versa. And because people don't want to get to work 100 years after by using PUV's such as buses, jeepneys, or FX because of too much traffic...again they choose to submit themselves into "parang lata ng sardinas" scenario.
And with this kind of smooth sometimes but rocky most of the time relationship I have with them I've noticed aspects, things and behaviors of most of the commuters that like me have also a so forgettable affair with LRT and MRT that I really dislike:
Here it goes
1. Commuters who holds on the hand rails as if they own it...
Puwede po ba maki-share? Baka po kasi matumba ako...
2.Commuters who talks on the phone so loudly (sometimes with matching foul words on it)as if they want to share their supposed to be private conversation to the public. At least just try to be a little discreet.
3.Commuters who accidentally stepped someones feet or pushed someone either accidentally or not who don't even know how to say sorry.
Nakaharang kasi
4.Commuters who stand and stay on the entrance and exit space even though they will stepped on the very last train station. It actually creates more disturbance for all the commuters.
"Bigyang daan po natin ang mga unang bababa"
5.Commuters who don't know the meaning of "excuse me"
"Excuse me po Ate...padaan po"
6.Commuters who sits down as if they are at home occupying all the remaining space without giving consideration to other commuters who are standing.
"Nagbayad din naman ako ah..."
7.Commuters especially those young ones who don't pay respect to elders depriving them of the seat that's actually for them.
"Aba senior citizen na pala kayo?"
8.Commuters who don't know the meaning of the word discipline and don't know how to obey rules. No drinking, no eating no smoking, no littering inside the train.
"Aba hindi pa pala ako nakakabasa!"
9.Commuters and this go out especially to men who take advantage of women trying every moves just to make "tsansing" especially if the train is so crowded.
"Mahiya naman kayo!"
10.Commuters who talks about the secret affairs, problems, etc. of their friends,co-workers, co-workers friends and family so aloud that only deaf people won't hear.
"If you can't help to talk about other people at least just at least lessen the volume please."
I'm not trying to be righteous here or whatever because I myself had my share of faults. Come on who's perfect anyway. But being a Filipino citizen and a commuter we have a responsibility to be aware on our actions and behavior especially in public whether it's in LRT, MRT or anywhere else. Let us not forget that when you say public transportation it's for everybody regardless of their status, gender or class in the society. That means we have to give consideration to each other's feelings.
Our attitude and behavior per se in MRT or in LRT reflects what kind of citizen we are to our country.
So there...
And I'm sure that my romance with MRT and LRT will continue as long as there are traffic everywhere...hehe.
