The Drive and Grind

I am truly SAD. I am JEALOUS. I am REGRETFUL.  Until now I have not graduated from college yet. It's been since 2008 that I should've gotten my diploma. But where I am now?, still trying to finish a degree at a University. I am TIRED. I want to QUIT now. My mind says to stop while my heart suggests to continue. My batch mates, most of them are already degree holder and some are license holder of different professions.  I have never imagined that I will not finish college during the time I should've finished it. I entered college June 2004. I was kind-of-forced to take Nursing. I can still remember enrolling for BS Commerce but my mother told me to change it otherwise I would have to return to our province. So I then shifted to Nursing. I enjoyed the first 2 years of college. I had very good grades. Come my third year where Duties are part of the curriculum already, I started to feel my dislike with the course. I don't like the hospital settings. I hate the fact that...

I am fond of watching TV. When I was still in the province and doesn't have a computer yet, I spend most of my time watching the boob tube , and mind you I love watching Filipino TV Shows: be it game show, soap operas, sitcoms, variety show, talk shows, lifestyle shows, cooking shows etc. etc. I am a couch potato when I'm just home. I am a homebody. It's a different case now though. I've got a job (graveyard) and I now have a laptop. Thus, I don't have much time to spend in watching television and if ever there is ,I would rather spend it for sleeping or in most instance - for surfing the web. I would like to list down these TV shows that I have enjoyed watching before:  1. DIGITAL LG QUIZ - GMA Network: - Hosted by: Paolo Bediones and Regine Tolentino         I must say that this has been my ultimate favourite show of all time.  I was really hooked up with the show. I actually dream of being one of the contestants for the sh...

Wow! What a Week?!  It's the most stressful week I've ever had. Grabe.  Mula sa school, work and personal life. Parang kelangan ko ng matinung rest. I need a break. I need a vacation.  I'm looking forward for a better week. I hope. I hope.  Lord, Thank You for keeping me still. 

I am a big Parokya ni Edgar (PNE) fan. They are one of my favorite Filipino-bands of all time. and one of my favorite songs from PNE is "The Yes Yes Show." I used to memorize its' lyrics.  Jamming. I will never forget this once in a lifetime experience I had with PNE. I was with my bestfriend when we watched the taping of the now defunct Homeboy, an ABS - CBN show with Boy Abunda as host. My bestfriend was approach by Boy Abunda and was asked to sing a PNE song, she sang Buloy. Unexpectedly boy turned the Mic to me and asked to do the same. Hehe. I was surprised. Then I sang The Yes Yes Show. Sarap. Naki - jam si Chito. The Best. Unfortunately I can't find a video of that encounter.

  Student  Learning  Program "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I may remember. Involve me and I will learn."  - Benjamin Franklin. We held our Student Learning Program yesterday at a Barangay in Sampaloc, Manila City. This is part of our final requirement for English M03. Our student learning program aims to reach out to children currently under Day Care education. Our main activities were story telling, jazz chants presentation, games and student - children interactions. It was really fulfilling. Sunday. A Hot Day. Supposedly the program was to start at 11 a.m but we were only completed at around 12 noon. I felt guilty as the participants were already there at the venue and we're late. The program started at 1 p.m. I was worried as most of the child have not taken their lunch yet. Some parents picked up their child as it's past lunch already. Some stayed.  Kulitan. The kids were too makulit. I don't know why. Maybe they're already hu...

I would like to congratulate myself for my 3rd year anniversary as a hardworking person (hehe). It was March 18, 2008 when I started working. Hmmm, bakit nga ba ako nag-decide na mag work?. Well, I was an incoming fourth year student of BS in Nursing then, it was too late that I realized I don't like my course, so I thought that 's the best way to escape from my course.  Job Hunting. A week before March 18, I decided to look for a job.  I first applied at APAC Cubao, during my final interview I was asked what 's my priority between work and school. Aba, I answered “school of course” next thing I heard, Mr. Garcia, you may try to apply again after 6 months. Thank You!  That very same day I went to another interview at Confabia Inc. at Eastwood City Libis, QC.  Luckily I was hired.  To date, I already had 4 companies whom I worked with. Though working is truly tiring I will forever be thankful that I have been working continuously for three years now. It has ...

This is my newest favorite. I love this movie. I love its' simplicity.

                Good Day everyone. I am much honored to have been invited to speak before you. Today, we have a very important topic to discuss. It is about the same – sex marriage or more popularly known as Gay Marriages.                 It is known to us that all over the world there are a varying views and opinions about Gay Marriages. It is undeniable that even in our country this has been a prevailing issue that needs to be addressed. In a not – so – perfect society, it is just but normal that one opposes and the other agrees. As they say, we are entitled to our own opinions. It is not even a question of who is the majority. It is about our stand. It is about our choice. It is about our decisions and most importantly how we responsibly respond to its’ challenges.             ...
