No WordPress Import????

2008-12-28T10:59:00.000-08:00

I was trying to import some of my latest rants in WordPress but unfortunately Multiply doesn't support WordPress (For Now...Hehehe...).Hhhm, Well, I have transferred to another blog site and maybe you won't be receiving some updates through Multiply.

Being A Kuya and some other stuff

2008-12-13T04:37:00.000-08:00

I am just exhausted and amazed about so many things today. Surely being a kuya in the group makes you exhausted from leading worship, facilitating sessions and of course, giving encouragement and counsel to many young people.But with all these things, I find it joy about how each and every words that we share to these young people, God uses it to change their perspectives and outlook in life. And

Christmas Season: A Personal Persepective

2008-12-09T16:17:00.000-08:00

I often wonder how we view Christmas here in the Philippines. As seen on tv shows and print ads, Christmas has become a bazaar of gift giving and party and all that stuff. Although I have to admit that having all these makes Christmas more fun and exciting to at most of the time, but how do we really know the essence of Christmas in the reality of our current situations?Christmas in the

Bring Him Home Santa

2008-12-08T16:32:00.000-08:00

I found this nice Christmas song about a little girl's wish for her Dad to come home. Hope You'd be blessed by her little Christmas wish.

Of Love and Relationships

2008-12-07T22:48:00.000-08:00

I often wonder sometimes how life can be so ironic. People asks you questions that seems to be answerable for us and yet, we ourselves are bounded by our very own issues we often need an answer from someone.I was asked by a friend earlier through a text message if ever "She should fight for him? Or let go?" and my answer was quite surprising even to me.I told her that "it will still be your

EMO and UNFAIR!

2008-12-05T04:40:00.000-08:00

I always wonder how I would look like if I become one of those "emo" guys on the street. Long sided hair, dark-lined eyes, lipsticks? (black?) How about wearing those hood jackets with stripes all over? Or perhaps wearing those tight levi's jeans and chuck taylor boots? (I'm wondering If I look good on that though...)A lot has been going on that You can't expect me to become too emotional - to

Late Night Stuff...Whew!

2008-11-26T09:31:00.001-08:00

It's the wee hours of the night and I'm still at the office due to some odd reasons. Whew!I just had a talk earlier with my boss and discussed the possibilities of relocating somewhere in the Metro Manila area. The chat went something like this -Vir: Ei, Matt, still busy?Matt: Yes chief,it's ok...Vir: uhmmm...got something to tell you.Matt: What's that?Vir: I'm freaking nervous...waaah!Matt: Come

Fiesta and CopyCats!

2008-11-24T15:21:00.000-08:00

It's Tuesday and I have no work! (hopefully!)It's fiesta time here in Dumaguete and people are busy buzzing either cooking or looking for a place to be full. And yes folks, good thing for those working in call centers wherein they get to be awake till lunchtime for the "chibugan" sessions somewhere out there. And of course, those who are enjoying the local holiday!I was wondering what other

Acquaintance and Frienship?

2008-11-24T05:30:00.000-08:00

It's another late night post after a day with so many things to do yet only a few things has beenasid and done. ( What's that again?)Anyway, Can anything be excited than meeting new people especially if you're not in a hurry? To many of us, what makes acquaintances are people with no time to take a sip and talk awhile (one moment...one Nescafe!) and get to learn more about other people - whether

Just This Saturday

2008-11-22T04:16:00.000-08:00

My entire Saturday seems to be mundane as usual. Just to make something out of my boredom, I tried taking pictures in the downtown area, discretely as possible. Imagine myself stopping in front of Ever Mall just to get a shot of the people walking around or leaping at the glass window up in Super Lee to get a shot downward. Hehehe...At EverMall, It was fast so it seems too blurry.At Lee Super

Freedom - Can it really exist?

2008-11-21T20:57:00.000-08:00

I was watching "Soldiers of Change" at home and it was really interesting. Th story shares a lot of things of every man or race's desire. It was a story about life, passion and true worth. It was a fascinating story about freedom.It made me think of our own freedom and how many lives have been sacrificed for such "freedom". Even today, our own community still cries for the changes that we have

Negros Blog Rolls: Are You "In" or "Out"?

2008-11-20T18:23:00.000-08:00

Blogging can be really addictive like friendster and other networking sites. But how does a blogger commune with other bloggers in one area?If you're on the same dilemma as we are, then cheer up - There's hope!There are other bloggers who are into this too! So with this in mind, I've created a particular networking website named - "Negros BlogRolls" to suffice the need about meeting friends and

Picture Perfect

2008-11-18T05:25:00.000-08:00

Can anything be addictive than having a new camera on hand?With the busy life that I have, I can still have the time to capture on camera everything I find interest in to. And at most, it's inside the office! With friends and co-workers gulping to pose and smile at every click, who would not take the plunge of trying it out.For keep's sake, I'm saving it in Multiply as an online "portfolio". But

Asus EEE Series Notebook

2008-11-16T16:57:00.000-08:00

I was wondering if ever people would be interested to buy my Asus EEE Series laptop. I bought this at around P 20,000.00 around 5 months ago and unfortunately, I seldom use the laptop because of being too busy to just chill anywhere with a wifi access. The laptop is in good condition, definitely no scratches or whatsoever. And has the capacity of 3.5 hours battery.It's also wifi ready and has

Robinsons Place: At a Glance

2008-11-15T22:04:00.000-08:00

A lot of people have been waiting for the new mall to open hopefully next year - Robinsons Place!With the many rumors of the said mall not to be finished or whatever, I took some pictures to see how the Robinsons site has been doing and building. The pictures were taken last Thursday, November 13th, 2008.Glance at a distanceWell, Hopefully this place will be up in no time so we can have "variety"

Just an Early Hue...

2008-11-13T16:24:00.000-08:00

I was up early because I wanted to upload my new pics online at friendster and in hot dumagueteños as well. Unfortunately, Friendster is down so I decided to upload it in Flickr and get back to it as soon as the network is done with their maintenance.By the way, Hot Dumagueteños is at 13 members, unfortunately, most are not from Dumaguete... Bad me! I forgot to double check my emails before

The Crazy Idea!

2008-11-13T01:22:00.000-08:00

I've been wanting to create an online community for Dumaguete Locals and I finally found a perfect place to create one! Wohoo!The idea comes about the desire to connect lost friends, new acquaintances and bloggers from Dumaguete and the neighboring places as well. I've named the site - Hot Dumagueteños Online believing that Dumaguete is not just another University town, but is also a place of

A Day at the Office!

2008-11-12T03:40:00.000-08:00

I always wanted to have a digital camera and give photography a shot for quite some time. So with all the equating of money, timeline and other payments,I decided to order one from a co-worker. And just today, I got with my new Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W120. Yey!The first thing that popped to my mind was create another blog about the pictures I've taken but the site is still on the construction

Dumaguete Bloggers!

2008-11-11T02:57:00.000-08:00

Yey! My 2 blogs was added to Dumaguete site! And yes folks, it's something to be excited about if you tell me because I have been looking for Dumagueteños who are into blogging as well.To mention Dumaguete bloggers, the upcoming NegOr IT Expo 2008 is inviting all bloggers and technopreneurs to join this December 1-2, 2008 at the Negros Convention Center. Although joining the event may incur cost

Wandering Around...

2008-11-10T04:33:00.000-08:00

I've been wandering around the net for days searching for good blogs coming from Dumaguete and I'd say I'm not in vain. So, for this post I'll be sharing some blogrolls from people that I know and not know of that has good content and exposure.To start of, I'll share about some interesting site I've been going back and forth this weekend.Blogroyalty - Cool layout and interesting topics from

What Makes a REAL Man?

2008-11-09T04:43:00.000-08:00

It has been long debated of what marks a man. is it the way he moves? the words he speaks or even the good or the bad things he decided to do makes him a real man?To many of us, a man showing emotions can be a very evident fact of him being a wimp, a sissy or a failure. Regardless of what their reasons are, men has been regarded as strong and invulnerable to emotional attacks. But sometimes,

Love but not trust.

2008-11-07T19:26:00.000-08:00

I often question my own relationships with everyone else. It's as if I'm not doing my part as a brother or a friend or a special someone good enough that trust seems to be so hard for them to give back.Can love be given out without giving trust also to someone?I assume that immature love can sometimes be like that - giving out love but not trusting. How often do we expect someone to love us back

The Dillema of Weights!

2008-11-07T04:32:00.000-08:00

I'm getting fatter everyday and I hate it. My dillema is not the necessity to stop eating but the need for excercise to loose the fattenings. (haha...)So, how do I get to do the thinning cycle when I don't have the time ( or so, i think!) to excercise and be fit?With this dillema comes the plan (or hopeful plan...) to get fit and lose weight, and hopefully stay thin for awhile.The only funny

A blog about "toxic-tiring-exhausting..."

2008-11-06T03:05:00.000-08:00

It's late and I'm still in the office for a marketing call at 7:30pm. Whew...as usual, this is going to be a long-toxic-tiring-exhausting day for me.Can you imagine coming in the office before 9:00am and leaving at exactly the same number in the evening ( 9:00pm) ?Anyway, I am not ranting about something that I hate to do but just because it's tiring. But does tiring means boring? or not

Dumaguete - Next Wave City in the South

2008-11-05T04:12:00.000-08:00

Does Dumaguete really have what it takes to be one of the "next wave" cities in the Philippines?“Next-wave” cities are those which have the infrastructure to host outsourcing centers as well as a capable labor pool and a proper business environment. Simply put, it means these places has the potential of hosting call centers and other IT industries which is booming in the country.According to

I was browsing through Youtube and I found a very interesting Christmas song video. This is funny and really interesting! Check it out below -The creator, Boymongoose seems to be very artistic when it comes to animation and has a funny side when it comes to creating a story line. I am an instant fan of him on Youtube!On their website at Boymongoose shares about the following information -

Rumors and Me...

2008-11-04T05:36:00.000-08:00

It has been bothering me for quite some time about some rumors that I heared about me. Although friends told me to let it pass by,I can't possibly do that.The reason for my choice is because it is affecting me too personally. I hate it when I'mbeing talked about and not just talk but really being pulled down and degraded for such selfish reasons.I have to admit that I have no holds if someone

Philippine Web Awards 2008

2008-11-03T20:09:00.000-08:00

I was browsing through the internet and found out about this year's Philippine Web Awards from ABS-CBN.There are also a lot of featured websites and blogs that won through the 10 years the website was up. I find it interesting that such a website exists from the time I was still a baby in exploring the internet world. It sure proves of us being up to date and having something to share to the

Just a Few Hours Before Wedding Time...

2008-10-28T21:56:00.000-07:00

I'll be hosting a wedding reception 2 hours from now and my long sleeve still is wet. Hehehe... After a few hours of choosing which one to wear, I settled for a khaki dirty white colored pants and a light blue long sleeves. I wonder how I look like later on. ( I'll make sure I'll take a pic of myself later...)Well, it seems that my email subscription link doesn't work. :( I was not able to

2nd Day Woes...

2008-10-27T20:48:00.000-07:00

It's my second day out of the office and it's getting boring...I often wonder how my twin brother lives like this... hehehe... Well, I'm the kind of person who always does something and being at home makes me sick of staying at home doing exactly nothing.The idea of life for me I guess has become of a workaholic guy driven by performance and results. I hate to admit it, but the last time I had a

Korean Movie Marathons

2008-10-26T19:07:00.000-07:00

Whew... I was up the entire night watching movies. It was my first time for this year to have DVD Marathon. I started watching at around 7:30pm and ended up at 3:30am early dawn.The funny thing was that only 1 out of the 5 or 6 movies I watched was english. Most of the flicks were Asians typically from Korea. Hehehe...Don't get me wrong, I'm no Korean series buff but I LOVE KOREAN ACTION MOVIES!

Words from the UNIGAMES...

2008-10-26T01:28:00.000-07:00

I had the opportunity to watch the opening of the University Games and it was really good! Although the program is the typical opening ceremony of any games, I got something out of it!Actually it is because of what the 2 commissioners said that made my ears listen to their talks.First of is what Akiko Thomson, a former swimmer and currently one of the commissioners present in the opening of the

A Blog Event For Dumaguete???

2008-10-25T05:54:00.000-07:00

What do you think?Will such an event spark up something for the blogger community here in Dumaguete?Hhhmmm...I think this will take much preparation but can be a very good opportunity to promote and take time to get acquainted and make friends.It's enticing to read about events sponsored by big companies for bloggers announced in PinoyBlogero. But since Dumaguete is small and food consumption is

13th Uni Games Opens today!

2008-10-24T21:03:00.000-07:00

It's a sunny day in Dumaguete and the streets are busy cleaning up after the Buglasan 2008 showdown celebration. As Buglasan comes to a close tomorrow, the 13th Philippines University Games opens up at 3:00pm today, October 25th, 2008.What's interesting about this event is that athletes coming from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao comes in the small university town of Dumaguete to compete among the

At last a new look has landed in this site!Thanks to Blogger-Templates, I can say I'm satisfied with the new view of the site.Well, melankoliko will also have a new and wider coverage. Instead of having the usual spill of my tantrums and experiences, this site will showcase both opinions and issues that I like to tackle in the near future.The blog itself will try to live to it's motto that

2008-10-22T22:27:00.000-07:00

I just had lunch with my team mates and it was an interesting humid lunch with lots of chit chat about spirituality and life as a whole. It's kind of interesting that to many of us, going to church is mundane and not that exciting.Hhhmmm... It made me think about my own spiritual spirals lately... what made me go lukewarm overtime?Well, the reality that going to church is a choice and a will to

Facets of Faces

2008-10-21T03:44:00.000-07:00

It's really funny watching the pictures I've taken of myself for the past few years. Instead of lloking older, I seemed to grow younger. Hehehe... I'm not bragging about something..It's just a fact I can't even deny when I look in the mirror. So, here are some of the faces I had through the years... I'd say my face looks younger but I definiteley grown up in being a person. Get the chance to ask

Kids At FUN!

2008-10-19T23:47:00.000-07:00

It's quite amusing seeing my nephews and cousins yesterday playing in the noontime at the beach. The four cuddly kids played from the time we arrived at around 10:00am up until noonbreak for lunch and they're back again up until 2:00pm.Gian,Em-em,Lance & Ash at the side of the beach having fun.While they were at the beach trying to swim and play, I was there at the side, watching them making sure

Yesterday was the opening of the long awaited provincewide celebration in Oriental Negros - The Buglasan Festival! This event showcase the different variety of products, people and traditions of the Negros towns and cities.

A Letter to You God...

2008-10-07T03:56:00.000-07:00

Dear Lord,I wonder how you would react when you get this letter. It's been awhile that I have talked to you. I know I have been doing things my way and have been busy for a lot of things that I have no time to chit chat with you like before.I know it's not good to ask some questions but may i please, just this once, ask one particular question that has been bothering me for a few days now..."

Remembering Lolo and Lola...

2008-09-07T17:12:00.000-07:00

Sunday was my typical rest day. I had a time to watch crunchyroll, chat and check friendster. A twist came when my auntie sent me her blog's link and as i read her tribute to my grandparents. Whew, I cried! The article was all about my lolo and lola's good things they have done for the 5 siblings of my mama. Like their experiences, it was the same as ours when we were in their care for almost our

Work and Ministry Times...

2008-08-06T00:48:00.000-07:00

My work schedule seems to be so tight that I don’t have time to work-out my blog for sometime. ( Grrr...I shouldn’t have accepted the job….Joke!)Working in the recruitment for a year and a half has been a whirlwind for my Christian life. The pressure of call center recruitment has put me on the edge of my seat that missing a day (even a Sunday!) might be missing opportunity to market the work! I

Faces and Names...Grr...

2008-06-30T04:56:00.000-07:00

Everyday at work I see different faces in all walks of life. Some seems to be familiar while others are nameless individuals hoping to get in the company to provide for themselves and their families.I consider myself a guy having problems with remembering faces. It's so hard to really determine and remember faces. I get confused when people asks questions that takes me aback from time to

The Frank Experience

2008-06-23T17:21:00.000-07:00

Typhoon Frank has hit as many lives as we can think of. Boats tossed at seas, adults and children driven out to their homes because flood came to destroy what is rightfully theirs. Calamity, as we know it hits us in an unpredicted circumstance of despair, hopelessness and depravity. It must be hard for the people in Iloilo when the flood washed away their homes. A colleague of mine sent us some

The Easy Life

2008-06-18T16:09:00.000-07:00

I always want the easier things in life. But I find it impossible to achieve or even pursue. Life, as we all know comes with hardship and pruning. There is no such thing as easy life, for me it's a mirage of a man who wants to escape responsibility, accountability and dependability. Although the 3 are interconnected, they are in a way, bit different from one character to another.Responsibility is

Money Matters

2008-06-17T17:20:00.000-07:00

I tried calculating all my expenses and found out that it's a pretty big amount I've wasted. Grrr... Bad cheetah!If there is one thing I need right now, it's MONEY MANAGEMENT! I think I cant control myself. And i get to borrow money for non-important reasons. I do spend less on food and rental but I don't know where I've used the rest of my money. Well, my goal for this month is to -1. Minimize

The Sourcing Life

2008-06-16T04:02:00.000-07:00

I kind of wonder if what if I didn't accept the offer for being a sourcing coordinator?3 good things:1. I wouldn't be always beating deadlines.2. Be more relaxed with work.3. Go home early as usual.5 things I'm into with sourcing-1. Do a lot with sourcing.2. Don't have OT's but too crushed with finishing everything within the day if possible.3. Got a higher pay.4. Go to places.5. Become too OC

When toxicity becomes addictous....

2008-05-22T04:44:00.000-07:00

Hahaha...my subject says it all.toxicity at work always makes my day. i spent my entire morning doing work that i don't have anytime to lay back and relax and have fun. To enjoy my time is somewhat a necessity i can't divulge in full especially with deliverable always at my doorsteps. But come to think of it, this is my bread and butter and i don't think grumbling ca help me ease the work. well

2008-03-13T04:30:00.000-07:00

It's a busy Thursday today and I forgot to make the blog entry that i promised! Duh!!!!I wanted to update my blog and talk about some things but my brain is already fried up with what has been going on for almost 12 hours! Can it please stop a bit????!!!!TTYL Guys. :(-fried mode-

2008-03-09T06:09:00.000-07:00

I was just out buying some guy's stuff when I got the urge to go online and check my friendster and blog account!Well, just a quick recap of all the things I've been doing the whole weekend...I had the time off from work after 2 days in Guihulngan City for a job fair. Although the job fair is not that stressful, the trip was! We have to travel for almost 3 hours from Dumaguete to Guihulngan by

A Game Called Love!

2008-03-07T17:44:00.000-08:00

I dont know if it's just fate or whatever, but it seems that love is far from reality at my end. It seems that every chances I make ends in defeat and disbelief. Second chances seems undeniably a pitiful route of despair and discouragement. A game i seldom play yet, in every game seems an excruciating pain of loosing.I guess maybe i came to the point where love seems to be a playground rather

At the End of my Day.

2008-03-06T01:41:00.000-08:00

Wow!For the first time I was able to be in a job fair where it's not toxic nor a waste of time! I'm currently in Guihulngan for a school jobfair. ALthough this is an experimental job fair wherein we partnered with the school, it has a good outcome after all.So, what does it make it non-toxic?1. We only have a few applicant and yet, 9 out of 30 plus were able to take ACE,MP Fit and MPO!!! ( that's

Late Night Stuff.

2008-03-04T16:13:00.000-08:00

I only have one hour sleep since I spent the night with a friends house. There was no one in the house and so I decided to go for an overnight stay from my friend's house, which is 2 blocks away from my neighbourhood.Well, typical boys stuff has been unraveled during the time I arrived to the wee hours of the night. ( hehe...)Another thing, the conversation was quite ecstatic considering that He

A Day at Work...

2008-03-04T03:17:00.000-08:00

Just another typical day at the office. I started the day doing sourcing work which made me sit at my table for almost 3 hours answering emails and finalizing the 2 upcoming job fairs. Sure is different when I was doing test administration...hahays...Anyway, it's not bad. I'm still adjusting that's why it seems to be more hard to grasp such workload!So, a good thing bout being a coordinator is

Toxic...where art thou?

2008-01-26T17:46:00.000-08:00

Today will be my last stint in bacolod. i decided to stay for one night and see what comes up later. For the past 8 hours, i have been wondering if ever i made the wrong choice...the wrong move...err,i hate it but that's what i feel right now.

A Christmas Story (Almost) Written by Millicent A. Guarin Tuesday, 18 December 2007Jesus tells a story in Luke 16:19-31 of two individuals with starkly different economic status. One is a rich man who dons expensive clothes and lives luxuriously, and the other, a very sick beggar who depends on crumbs for subsistence and survival. The rich man has everything in life. He has money as well as

Friendster and TeleTech!

Waaaaaaaaah!Work seems to follow me wherever i go! I just checked my messages in friendster and found out 3 messages that relates to work and TeleTech.

Sunday with Kids

2008-01-13T05:02:00.000-08:00

Sunday can be a bit of a boredom to me. Good thing there was my nephew who for the entire afternoon accompanied me to watch tv, played in the mat and let's say, get's to unfix my hair and had some laughs at our pictures during the mat rolling time.Kids do brighten our day and allows us to be more happy in life than the usual mundane reasons. I hate to admit it but I love spending time with them,

It has been quite some time that i've updated this blog. A lot of things has been wrapping up my life that my blogger instinct seems to be dysfunctional for a time. Well, my ate is at home now together with her kids. I thank the Lord they are safe and sound now. I just learned that my ate has been emotionally unstable because of the trauma she has experienced. Sad to say, she has been a victim

For these days...

2007-12-06T16:00:00.001-08:00

The week has been a blessing! Surely many things in our life are surrounded by how we react to things rather than our actions. I am more overwhelmed on the Lord’s goodness rather than my own problems. Surely, He is in control.What are the things I have learned through all of these? Here’s some glimpse…1. Amazing grace- as the song goes “amazing grace how sweet the sound…” It’s a sweet sound to

To start, our new manager has just experience his first week with us and it has been enriching. He really knows what he discusses.

Stormy Tuesday

2007-11-20T00:31:00.001-08:00

Every time I look outside I always see rain dropping in from the sky… will it ever end?! I honestly hate rainy seasons. It's this time of the year when your pants get mud and your feet get soaked from the flood. I remember those high school days when I go to school really soaked and ended up going home again soaked and

Monday Choices

2007-11-18T19:36:00.001-08:00

It's a mundane Monday. I woke up at 6:00am to find out I'll be late for work if I don't act fast. I went home to our town for a one day break and its one hour away from Dumaguete. When I arrived at the bus stop, it was raining hard and there were a lot of passengers waiting. Uhm, because of my being choosy, I

An experience at the Boulevard

2007-11-17T01:04:00.000-08:00

It's raining like crazy here!Well, i decided to give an update on what happened earlier. The flyering was successful! Although only 25 came in to help out of the 40, we were able to give 3/4 of the flyers away. (Wohoo!!! and to think the team didn't do it themselves but the associates only!!!) So, the team stayed in the boulevard, one of the nice places to stroll when your in Dumaguete. :)Another

I had two missed calls from a particular landline number with the area code coming from Manila. I was not able to answer both attempts for the 2 early mornings (3:57am and 4:39am) because I was still sleeping and it was on beep tone only. (Argh)I learned later on when I called the number that it came from ICT Contact Centers (Not sure if it’s the correct name). I kind of forgot that I have

Reflection on Death

2007-11-15T04:40:00.001-08:00

Life can be the most exciting journey in the whole universe. We meet some and leave some. Many of which is easy to meet up and yet takes a lifetime to break away the prints of their lives in our own life journey.What a sad life can it be when all we meet are those who hurts us most of the time rather than love us. I dare not speak of other people but myself. I have gone through the road and have

Final Day?

After many months of toils and turns I'm going to be evaluated for regularization. It has benn almost a year now being part of the Recruitment Team in the company. It was a road less likely to be traveled if you want lighter work. (as if there's one out there)I am currently in-charge with the Link Up! Employee Referral Program. It was a blast when an activity is successful but has its downside

My dialogue Again

2007-05-01T04:26:00.000-07:00

have you ever try being guilty in doing something? I do. Just being honest seems not that effective anymore. How i wish i could bring back the tides of time and change what has to be changed. Regrets do come at the end when everything seems to fit to what you expect and yet, you know it's wrong. Stupid me.What if I could really turn the tides and change what was done in the past? What would i

Why?

2006-12-06T19:26:00.000-08:00

I wonder why God allows me to meet people with broken hearts and broken dreams? is there a purpose in all of these?With that questions also comes along the dillema, why does God allow suffering in the world? why does he make people experience hurt,pain and sorrow?Perhaps,i can never have answers for such questions. And it's hard to answer such questions when people are asking you these...is God

Friendship.

2006-12-04T04:50:00.000-08:00

Life are full of challenges and we are destined to face each one of them. We have been wired to win some and lose some but the good part is that, we come out another person.Our views in life will change, our ways will be more discrete and perhaps, our choices a much wiser one since we now know better from our experiences.People sometimes doesn't see the changes in us, whether it's good or bad.

2006-11-27T19:43:00.000-08:00

i'm really down these past few days. i was really thinking that something nice was going on with our friendship. But i was wrong, i guess i hoped too much.we can never push people to like us, and even if we expect them to be different, people will have to choose for their own whom to like,love and accept. this may sound harsh, but it's reality. it may hurt us, but we must face it.this has always

2006-11-15T21:48:00.000-08:00

Life never gives too much options.And how people respond to the things we do are unpredictable.What a sad realization but true. we seldom meet the expectations of friends,family and loved ones. As much as we also expect much we receive little. That is i guess the irrevocable laws of attraction. I don't know, maybe i'm just too melancholic but that's what's in my mind right now.What a hard

it has been quite an interesting month for me, filled with work,leisure,fun and learning. but with many other experience, it takes alot of things to push through and pull of anything these time around.it's like,seeing something that you wished to do and yet, it's from a distant,unable to be touched or examined as either true or false. it's like those dreams you always have that has all the
