Child's Play

My cousin Jandi while enjoying her morning play/exercise. :)

first time

this is the first time that we will not be going to Polangui as family to celebrate undas due partly to the fact that mama and papa need some time to rest for they are fresh from Manila because of Dan's continuing chemotherapy sessions. so, ate dianne and i were the emissaries or representatives of mama and papa for our annual undas visit in polangui wherein we got the chance to visit the tomb of my late grandfather and uncle as well. also, it was the perfect time to have some kind of reunion with our relatives, makipaglaro sa mga nakababatang pinsan at makipagkwentuhan naman sa mga ka-edad. nag-enjoy ata kami that's why we decided to deviate from the plan to just go home at the evening of october 31. instead, we spent the night there with our relatives and went home the day after. walang dalang extrang damit, charger, walang-wala kundi mga sarili lang namin. ngapala, we were with uncle aron and baby jandi.


at this juncture, the first time thing will be inserted. magsisinungaling ako kung magsasabi akong hindi ako umiinom or hindi pa ako nakainom dahil ang totoo ay ilang beses na rin akong uminom kasama ang mga kaibigan pero maniwala ka kung sasabihin kong hindi pa ako nalasing simula ng first time kong pag-inom. promise! well, if ilang beses na akong uminom ng kasama ang mga kaibigan eh never pa yung kasama ang kamag-anak not until october 31 when uncle aron invited me together with my other cousins to drink. actually, tinatanong ako kung ano daw ang gusto kong inumin. sabi ko sila na bahala dahil nakakahiya magdemand. mas nakakahiya pa at TI lang ata ang gusto kong inumin. masarap pero may kamahalan. red horse ang binili nila. kahit ayaw ko ng beer ay lumaban ako. una, nakakahiyang umayaw pagkatapos kong pumayag na sasali ako sa kanila. inubos namin ang gabi ng pag-iinom. all-in-all, tatlo at kalahati lang kaming uminom (kalahati dahil umalis si george na pinsan ko at nakiinom sa labas) ng limang bote ng litro (kung litro man yun) ng red horse. good thing, naka-survive ako pero natamaan ako dun pero hindi nalasing. ewan, feeling ko madaya lang talaga akong kainuman or sadyang mataas ang alcohol tolerance ng katawan ko. haha. kung gayon man eh, good for me. kaya pagkatapos ng drinking spree ay naghanap na ako ng tulugan at natulog. may tama eh. buti na lang paggising ko, walang sakit ng ulo, normal ang buhay ko. good for me ulit! wohoooo! haha.


at pinuntahan na namin ang sementeryo, nagsindi ng kandila habang umuulan,nag-ayos ng bulaklak para kay papa doro at tito jun, nag-alay ng dasal at umalis sa pangambang abutan pa ng malakas na ulan. umuwi ng bahay nila lola, pinuntahan si lola sa trabaho at umuwi na papuntang naga. ako dapat magddrive pero hindi ko dala ang lisensya ko. bad thing! haha. anyway, nag-enjoy naman ako sa first time ko. :D

RH now

i can't stop campaigning for RH Bill in my own little ways especially that tomorrow (if i am right) is the scheduled debate about RH Bill in the House of Representatives. well, i guess i stated the reason why i am for RH Bill passage. let me state some of my reasons by quoting the staunch RH advocate Carlos Celdran, "the bill aims to provide awareness and education. it isn't about abortion or population control." i would like to believe that at this point in time, i don't personally need RH but thinking about the millions of Filipinos living under the poverty line, we need to educate them. we need to give them the chance and opportunity to choose their path away from poverty by (in this case) giving them access to both natural and artificial family planning whichever they would want to use. we are a nation of strong 92 million and more Filipinos. yes, i believe that population is our very asset but then again, this bill is not about population control and i would like to believe that the bill will paved way for a sustainable population growth which will be very helpful for the country. we cannot waste more and more time. our time is now! i'm pro-life. pro-quality life for the Filipino people. pass the RH bill!

as to the opposition of the catholic church, well, i am a proud catholic but i think supporting the RH bill will not make me less of a catholic because i know God wants the best for His people and God wants better life especially for the poor. but let me quote another statement, this time from Leloy Claudio with regards to the opposition of the Catholic church. "Condoms and anti-colonial novels are, after all, eerily similar: they piss off the powerful because they liberate" and perhaps you can read his blogpost about the RH bill and the Catholic opposition through this link.

work-out

i am starting my 'home' gym exercises at our boarding house and i'm slowly trimming my food intake especially rice limiting it to one cup only most of the time. i guess its high time for me to get pretty serious about losing some fats especially that i have received many comments that i am becoming bigger and bigger. its high time for me to get pretty serious in losing weight if i would like to pursue my plans of joining the search for mr. bucssp and eventually the search for mr. bu some eight months away from now. its high time for me to get serious especially if i want to say yes to ate abby's modeling offer once she officially approach me. this is serious business and seryoso na ako. i'm also planning to have a jogging exercise every saturday morning at BU athletic grounds and oval to further help me in my goal while our plan to go to a fitness gym is not yet in reality. KAYA KO TO! :D
