something's not right.

t'was about 7 months after we have separated ways. oo. matagal-tagal na rin. some of us decided to go north to the nation's urban jungle (citation for grlfrnd'mara), some decided to stand still sa maogmang lugar while some decided to go south. well, i can say that oo. kahit papano ay walang gaanong nabago sa samahan namin. i mean, they are the same kgaya ng pagkakakilala q sa kanila. but then something's not right. and i thought will never be right.

maybe i'm just experiencing my so-called 'post-graduation' syndrome. tsktsk. it seems that i'm back to basic. prang balik first year ba. oh no! i'm having hard time describing this silly thing. well, bottomline of this something's not right in me. hmm. maybe nmmisz q lang yung dati. hainku.

:D




ps. may nkuha aq mula sa fs na pic na cnrop mo, inedit-edit at ayun.
eto, teyk a luk.


hapee third bstfrnd. :D

better late than never.

wait! can we just stop and think for a while?? nsan na ba tayo? hmm. no wonder we did progress rapidly. from simple machines then to the sophisticated gadgets that we have nowadays. dba! ang galing tlga ng mga tao. hmm. pro come to think of it, naisip din ba natin ang mga nagawa ng ginawa natin? specifically sa environment natin?

hmm. last october 15 (if i can remember it right) was the blog action day on climate change 2009. unfortunately, i was unable to post a blog about climate change. pro hndi dahil hndi aq nkpost noon eh hndi na aq mgppost. for this simple thing i can do to help the environment eh sayang naman. and also i do believe that it's always better late than never.

you know. tayo talagang mga tao, most of the time we always think of ourselves. khit nga ibang tao wala tayong pki-alam. lalung-lalo na sa kapaligiran natin. bsta ba we have the convenience ukie na sa atin. come to think of it, for the last couple of decades we destroyed our environment in exchange of our convenience. that's ukie. dahil kahit aq naman eh gusto qng mas madali ang buhay. but TOO MUCH is always wrong. namaan! we have destroyed forests, polluted oceans rivers, air and even our land. We destroyed the natural habitat of our fellow creatures. We develop farmlands to metropolis. and so on and so forth. We didn't even think of the future effect of our actions. take a look at today, typhoons are stronger and are becoming more stronger. artic and antartic icebergs are melting rapidly than suggested by the scientists. as more says that we are now starting to experience the effect of what we know as climate change that in the future may threaten human existence.

as an individual, a filipino and a human plus as a catholic. i know it is my job to help in the protection of our environment. that's why i'm on my own mission green. and hindi q ipagkakait ang pde ko pang magawa for the environment. patronizing environmentally friendly products and supporting environmental programs plus support to mara's ecopolis are some of the simple things i know na magagawa ko. oo! isa lang aq. pro aq plus mara, alex and some thousands and millions of other. di marami na rin kmi. haha. decades of being passive about our environment is enough. yes! maybe its too late but being late is better and will always be better than never doing something at all.

a.glimpse.of.my.september's.fest

the first 'ber' month which happens to be september just ended. a sign na mdyo malapit na ang christmas and a sign na mas malapit na ang end of the first semester. yohoo! haha. but then september as i may say is a month of fest. unang-una na dahil sa penafrancia festival in my home city, naga city. second, because of the celebration of the 40th foundation or ruby anniversary of the Bicol University na aside from celebrations eh nkpagbigay din ng dahilan upang mawalan ng pasok at some time ang bu. meaning, mdyo informal ang klase because of the disturbance. kumbga, may bagyo. haha. and lastly, simply because september is a fest in itself. bakeet? mamaya. malalaman mo. :p hmm. as usual, hbang ngkkwento aq ng aking kwentong kalej eh mas maganda na mkita mo rin ang mga png-sasabi q through pictures (to be posted nlang) ng maimagine mo at hndi ka ma-OP or kaya nama'y ma-LG (Looking Good or Laking Gubat?)

hmm. as i can say, my september started with a smile. OO! smile na yung tipong nkikita ang 32ng ngipin kung skaling 32 man ang ngipin q. hmm. ksi kgaya mga ng post q na entitled hapee week eh yun na yun. also, fiesta sa daraga. naalala q that was first friday and i think their 6th day of novena for our lady of the gate ng naging instant prayer leader of the faithful aq at si angelo. (hmm. may calling?) haha.

pro going to the first topic under my september's fest, sa bu 40th muna tau. hmm. well, hndi q tlga nfeel ang inaasahan qng mdyo magandang selebrasyon. pro pde na rin. some of the highlights as i can say are ang sumusunod:

• started with a foot parade from penaranda with our college na bininyagan ng emcee na CSP. kung bakit? hndi q alam. ang alam q lang, dapat doble as S. haha. followd by hataw yun 'hataw' (annual dance exercise for all pe students) na sinabayan ng pagpapalipad ng thousands of ballons as a symbol cguro of bicol university soaring higher that ever. cguro. haha.
• also, the University-Wide NSTP day. eto feel q tlga to. nglaro ng centipede walk at ngtapos bilang first runner up lang dahil sa hndi synchronized na movements ng team, nglaro ng pipeline relay na bumagsak din sa first runner-up dahil sa pag-ulit ng ngkaproblema sa tally at higit sa lahat, ang greatest participation q, i hosted the kanyaw (kanta-sayaw) festival 2009.
• parlor games at laro ng lahi na hndi q sinalihan dahil sa mainit at nkkburn ng skin. whaha.
• ang Search for Mr. and Ms. Bicol University 2009 na sinalihan ng kaibgan naming si joseph sime. hmm. unfortunately, hndi xa napadpad sa dpat place na kinalagyan nya. sayang. pro auz na yun. at least may sinabi xa. haha.
• ang cultural show na 'koleksyon' na hindi q pinanood dahil tnamad aqng umuwi sa legazpi during that day. inshort nsayang ang 50 pesos q.

hmm. prang yun lang nman. haha. second sub-topic is the penafrancia festival. well, sad to say first time qng hndi nakaattend sa mass after translacion afters several years. first time qng hndi nkpunta at nksuporta sa school for the military parade and the dlmo competition. pro atleast ngpakita aq sa calabanga. haha. pro ang pinakamasaya is that aside from nakasama q ang family q ksama na ang mga titas, titos at kapipinsanans q eh nksama q din si jollibee (seryoso! may picture pa kmi. haha.) and sympre ang ZEPHY family. well, hndi q inaasahan na madami sila namely, bstfrndrica, darlene, bekai, iris na matabaunun, gerona, annie with bf nya na nkalimutan q ang name, zaldy, jobhoa, kokoi, niki, yayen, kitz, vinz, grlfrnd'zelite and abigail lumbera. (meron pa ba? anybody there? mdyo nklimutan q. tsktsk.) prang reunion na din kahit kulang. hehe. well, sad to say, hndi nga lang aq nk-carnival during the fiesta. tsktsk. pro hapee na rin. whaha. :)

well, isa pang rason kung bkit masaya ang september ay ang following:

• hmm. nainvite aq sa debut na ate venez kung 18th of september kung saan isa aq sa mga members cotillion de horor este honor. kpartner si mamee karleen. as for the performance, next question please. haha.
• at sa ginanap na values formation and team building ng social work department para sa aming mga first years kung saan ngkaroon kmi ng place na maexpress ang gusto naming maexpress at msabi sa mga kklase namin. well, maganda ang product nya sa block. haha. closer as ever kmi. kaya gurugo sana! well, dae q lang mlilingawan because its the second time na hndi aq ntulog the whole nyt. as in wala. pra rin namang yung gumawa kmi ng project sa english nina bstfrnd and ate di. whaha.
• ngkaroon aq ng bagong 'crush' na tlga namang knikilig aq na galing sa kapit-college namin na cbem at accountancy ang course nya. hahahahahaha. soo high school anu? pro maung-mau. tao lang po. haha. pro magaun man si result kang F.L.A.M.E.S. na gnbo ni angelo para sku. haha. soo far soo good at soo far, soo high school. haha. pro crush man lang. kya aus lang yan. whaha.
  

hmm. pro bkit nga ba september is a fest in itself? haha. hndi q rin alam. bsta alam q masaya at dahil masaya pde na syang mcompare sa fest. haha. pro, honestly, may konting sadness din aq. maybe because sa pgging homesick dun at dahil na rin nmmiss q ang mga kaibigan q. plus of some misunderstanding. tsktsk. pro auz na yun. haha. hmm.

pro may pahabol aqng tanong... dba malapit ng mgchristmas? hmm. ng-iisip kna ba ng gift mu sken? haha. :p
well, ingat.ingat nlang satin lahat.

CORAZON CONJUANGCO AQUINO
1933 - 2009

while we are asleep.. an unexpected series of events unfolded.. events that marked the end for the former president corazon aquino and for the icon and mother of Philippine Democracy.. hmm.. oo! at marahil tama lamang na sbhin na wala pa aqng kamalay-malay sa mga nangyari sa panahon nya.. but then, come to think of it kung anu man yung mga bagay na yun eh sure aqng yun ang mga bagay na ineenjoy natin ngaun.. come to think of it, while we the present generation is using the L sign as a sign for losers, president aquino used that very same sign as a symbol of change. and that change in particular is the freedom that we have today..

and for that, thank you very much, mrs. president.
truly, an idol to look at for our generation and the next generations to come.
maraming maraming salamat po!

bakit nga ba??

hmm.. starting nun sinabi q ang degree na gusto qng itake eh marami ang ngng side comments.. hmm.. ewan q ba kung bakit ganun.. gayunpaman, eto at ipapaliwanag q sainyo ang dahilan kung bakit nga ba..

"a profession with a very BIG, BIG heart, a profession not for the weak-hearted and the wicked ones, that's Social Work" that's what Social Work and being in the realms of Social Work profession looks like to me. From what i have known, Social Work is a profession which focuses and gives emphasis on human development and human services. Social Work is a profession that seeks to understand and help all people from the different walks of life in the society especially those who are less fortunate and helpless. For so, Social Workers are quoted as the 'engineers of human development.'

Choosing Social Work for me is not that easy. First and foremost, the idea of taking Social Work came during the very last minute just before the enrollment period because of certain dilemmas i faced. But then deciding to choose Bachelor of Science in Social Work than other courses is i think a right decision for me. Since then, I really want to serve and help others. Maybe because of the fact that i was exposed by my mother to social work practices or it really runs through my blood having been experienced things of helping others during my elementary and high school years in my own little ways.

Second, i believed that through Social Work, i can be a part of making a difference in the community we have right now. Just like what i have read in a magazine few months ago, it was mentioned there that if you wish to make a difference, be a social worker. Maybe i was too enticed in making a difference or change or being a part of that change that can happen in our society. As i can say it, i had wished ti make a difference and i believed that i am taking the right path through a degree in social work.

Third, it was evident today that most of the youth will either choose a degree in business, economics, management, sciences, computer and industrial technology, nursin and engineering. Many will either choose to repair buildings than society, to improve business than human condition and many more and so i choose to be different by having a degree in Social Work.

Lastly, i see social work as more of a vocation than a profession. Vocation and profession is really synonymous but for me, vocation is deeper than profession for vocation goes by the will and determintation of the person plus his/her heart to work while profession is only a title of your current line of work, career or occupation. Social Work is a vocation because you have to do a lot of sacrifices in order to do the job excellently. You have to put your heart to the work to do it excellently. You have to go out of your home and comfort zone to help others in times of difficulties. You need to do things that might be unusual or bizarre to you. You need to have some kind of special values and different kinds of person with different personality and problems. But then, that's why i choose a degree in Social Work for me to learn the essential things that i need so that someday i can be an excellent professional Social Worker.

A vocation in helping other people help themselves than helping machines, buildings, business and other superficial and artificial things is i think one the most exciting thing a man can have and experience in his whole life time.

teachers pet

Hmm.. since i have my new classmates especially new teachers! Aba! Hindi ko papalampasin ang pagkakataon para ibahagi sainyo ang aking observation and first impressions sa kanila.. haha.. umpisahan na natin:

ma’am EYES
hmm.. sya ang una naming teacher na nakasama sa unang araw ng pasukan.. actually, ang kwento sa akin ni mama ay teacher nya rin daw dati si ma’am eyes noong estudyante pa lang sya sa BU pra rin sa kursong Social Work.. ang sabi sa akin ni mama ay grabe daw mangbagsak si ma’am at super terror.. pro prang noon yun.. parang mabait na sya ngayon.. at nakakatawa pa.. kumbga eh, binibigyan nya ng bagay na nakakatawa ang mga simpleng bagay.. haha.. pro malay ko pa rin.. eh ng-uumpisa pa lamang ang mga bagay-bagay…

ma’am TOKTOK
hmm.. sya naman ang second teacher namin.. teacher naming sya sa dalawang subject.. isa sa Monday at isa Friday kya mgkikita-kita kmi sa simula at katapusan ng bawat lingo at 3 hours each ang subject nya samin.. hmm.. prang mabait naman si ma’am.. prang magaling din magturo.. at mukhang bata pa.. pro pra ding nakakaantok sya at some time.. hmm.. bkit ma’am toktok?? Ksi ayaw nya ng may kumakatok sa door kpag ngllesson sya..

ma’am TARAY

teacher naming na prang down-na-down ang mukha.. (half-literal, half figurative).. oo! Tama! Mukhang nakakatakot nung una pero prang mabait naman.. at bkit pilit ang binigay kong codename, ito ay sa dahilang ang una nyang sermon sa amin ay tungkol sa PILIT, PAGPIPILIT, EPEKTO NG PAGPILI at kung anu-anong PILIT. haha.. ang sabi ni ma’am masama daw kapag pinipilit o napipilitan ang anak sa kurso na gusto ng kanyang magulang sa kanya.. haha.. galing na din sa kanyang experience.. katunog ng pangalan ni ma’am Chavez ang pangalan nya..

ng
KALAYAAN, PILIPINAS! :)


tomorrow, (june 13) ate di and i be leaving Naga to pursue our college study in Bicol University: the Premier State University in the Bicol Region. i'll be going to the states. yeah! LA pare! Legazpi, Albay. hmm. gonna meet new people with different personality , learn/adjust to a much more difficult bikol languange if i may say, have new friends, gain more experiences have new jobs and most of all, i will go out of my comfort zone and learn much more life can offer. hmm. mgsstart na ang panibagong yugto sa buhay ko and so help me bro! sya nga pala, i guess mdyo malayo-layo ang gap ng bawat post q lalo na kpag may pasok na considering na walang wifi connection ang aming boarding house and hndi q pa naeexplore ang aming campus. haha. lesser opportunity for YM pro atleas meron. pra hndi pa nman sure. haha.

cgecge. i need to prepare pa the things needed. buhbye Naga! i'll be back soon! haha. good luck and God bless us all. :)

just NO!

today is the 10th of June, just two days away from the celebration of the 111th Philippine Independence Day so i just decided to have a post on the current situation our country was in. after all, hndi nman siguro masama na magsalita ng tungkol sa Pilipinas. hmm. most of us, if not all, knows that today a GRAND RALLY against the passage of House Bill No. 1109 or the convening of Congress as Constituent Assembly or CON-ASS that will gave way to Charter Change. meaning, ammendments will be done to the present 1987 Constitution.

well, to tell everyone honestly. hndi pa nman ganun kadami at kalayo ang kaalaman ko tungkol sa Charter Change pro atleast may alam naman aq. from what i have know, a Charter Change can just happen through three different modes, namely, People's Initiative, Constitutional Convention and Constituent Assembly.

going back to HB 1109, the 3/4 of our honorable congressmen have voted in favor of it doing it themselves without the participation of the upper chamber because arguments from some of the congressmen states that the voting should be done with the upper and lower chamber together thus outnumbering the senators that we know are against ChaCha before 2010 national polls. as what the CBCP President have said in his blog, it seems that the leadership of the land and of Congress seem to be so "desperate" that they would even change the Constitutional Rules of Congress in order to speedily pursue and accomodate the Constituent Assembly (CON-ASS). hmm. Speaker Prospero Nograles have cleared it that the Constituent Assembly will not be used to prolong the term of anyone, specifically president Gloria Arroyo but that has yet to be justified and proved.

pro majority of the Filipino are not sure if they will believe what the speaker have been saying especially that the speaker and the most distrusted president in the philippine history are alies. tiwala tlga. mahirap mabuo at lalung-lalo na mas mahirap buohin muli.

personally, i am not against Charter Change. but i think it will be better if the Charter Change can occur after the 2010 National Polls and through the Constitutional Convention. a process that is indeed good for the greatest number having the participation even from non-political people. to cut the story short, just NO! wag na muna. ska na lang.

ako naman!

history file: going back seventeen years ago, while my mother and father was celebrating their 2nd wedding anniversary, a bouncing baby boy was born... and that was me! hha. meaning, today is my day! ito ang araw ko! kaya ako naman! hapee bday to me.. hehe..
