TWILIGHT - ECLIPSE

2010-04-04T18:35:00.004+08:00

I've been following the twilight series movie and I guest a lot of people do the same thing. Collecting the complete book series, dvd's, and other collectibles as much as I do. A lot of my friends were telling me that I should not waste my time watching,reading and supporting this movie coz it's far from reality, but I don't listen to them. I know in one point that what they were saying was true, but my interest with regards to this movie does not depends on its reality, but on its magnetic power to give lessons in life especially to the youths. I believe that we all learn from our own lives, but sometimes its easy to learn through other peoples lives. Through watching people around us, listening and sharing with them, which is not far from watching the same movie TWILIGHT. Criticism is part of all famous personalities and movies.
We are waiting again for the showing of the TWILIGHT-ECLIPSE which will be on June 30, 2010 and no doubt this movie will be part of history, so let's all watch it.

PAID SURVEYS

Do you want to earn extra income? We all are experiencing economic crisis, but to solve it we need to make decisions....to make our financial status better or wait for miracles that are impossible to happen. What I'm saying is, there are lots of opportunities to make an income and we only need to give some attention to it.

TIWLIGHT

It's been almost a year of visiting my blog without even writing anything. Not just because I'm too busy, but also because I was tired of my routine. But not this time, after I watched the movie TWILIGHT. There are lots of amusing things in this movie played by the characters of the main stars Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen and Kristen Stewart as Isabella Swans, like vampires different abilities and old speculations about them. Even the different side of the most dangerous predator in the world. It's a movie that will make all ages interested with love stories too, because it's what most of the people say "abnormal relationship", what I mean is between a human and a vampire relatinship.

A lot of people are talking about twilight, but also some are making negative reactions about the movie and I think it's just normal, it's one of the reasons why TWILIGHT remain as the talk of the town or rather the world as it may seem to be that successful. Everybody has it's own opinion and we just have to respect each others views and reactions. But for me, I really enjoyed the movie and hoping to watch New Moon on November 20, 2009 as what they had announced. It's the continuation of the movie Twilight. For those who haven't watch the movie yet, enjoy and let you youthful imaginations run through your brain.

TRADE FAIR

2008-02-01T19:47:00.000+08:00

Karaniwan na tayong nakakakita nang mga trade fairs, dito kc tayo nakakabili ng mga produkto from other provinces ng hindi na nangangailangang bumiyahe pa tayo sa malayo. Liban dun di ko inakalang marami din palang kwento sa bawat booth na pupuntahan mo. Last December isa ako sa inassign na magbenta sa booth namin. Ang gusto ko lang nung time na yun ay makapagbenta kasi may quota kami, pero di sumagi sa isipan ko na mag-eenjoy ako ng husto sa pinuntahan ko.
Marami akong nakilala syempre, mga nagbabantay ng booth na mula sa iba't-ibang organization/foundations na mula din sa iba't-ibang probinsya. Si Zylon taga-Palawan at isa sa mga nagbebenta ng perlas. Sabi nya, para daw malaman mo na tunay na perlas ang binibili mo ay pagkiskisin mo daw ang dalawang perlas at kapag naging powder ang pinagkiskis na bahagi ay siguradong tunay itong perlas. May perlas na cultured at may perlas din na natural na nagmumula sa dagat.
May mga bumibili din sa amin na nakikipagkwentuhan, tulad na lang ng isa sa mga naging customer namin. Ayon sa kwento nya sya diumano ang dahilan kung bakit nagkaroon nang patakaran na kapag malapit nang manganak ang isang babae ay di na sya maaring sumakay sa eroplano. Ang pangalan nya ay Anghel, kasi nga naman ipinanganak sya sa loob ng eroplano habang nasa himpapawid. Matanda na sya ....siguro mga nasa 70-80 na ang edad nito. Pero malakas pa mukhang malusog pa ang pangangatawan. Nakakatuwa kasi marami tayong maaring malamang impormasyon at kapupulutan ng aral sa mga taong di natin kilala. Kelangan lang talaga nating makinig.

THESIS

2007-11-25T17:51:00.000+08:00

" Ysabella" , ang isa sa pinaka-kilalang tele-nobela at palagi ko ding pinapanood. Marami ka kasing mapupulot na aral sa kabila nang pagiging madrama ng istorya nito. Liban pa sa talagang nagagalingan ako sa pag-arte nina Judy Ann Santos, Aiza Seguerra, atbp., eh mahilig din ako sa mga palabas na related sa pagkain o pagluluto ng mga pagkain.
Matagal ko nang gustong magkaroon ng negosyo na syempre hindi lalayo sa pagkain, at iba't-ibang ideya na din ang aking naisip. Tulad ng pagtatayo ng isang restaurant na ang mga ibebenta eh panay street foods. Bakeeet? kasi liban sa gusto kong safe ang kakainin ng mga magiging costumer eh pang-masa din ito, ika nga eh kayang bilhin ng mga ordinaryong tao.Kaya nga lang hindi ganun kadali, dahil wala naman akong perang gagamitin para umpisahan ito.
Kanina nasabi sa akin ng karelasyon ko na napanood nga nya ang isang episode ng Ysabella, at ang thesis nga daw dito ni Ysabella na walang iba kundi si Judy Ann Santos ay tungkol sa pagtatayo ng isang restaurant na panay street foods ang ibinebenta. Nakakatuwa na may nakaisip din pala ng naisip ko, pero nalungkot din ako kasi naipalabas na sya sa TV eh hindi ko pa rin naumpisahang gawin.
Ganunpaman, mas lalo akong ginanahang ituloy ang iba ko pang mga plano. Marami din sigurong may magagandang ideya na hindi nabibigyan ng pagkakataong gawin ang mga pangarap nila sa hirap ng buhay, at marami ding mga taong nagpupursigeng matupad ang mga pangarap nila. Sabi nga pangarap lang ang libre sa panahong ito.

Bacolod

2007-10-31T19:37:00.000+08:00

Here's a few of my pictures in Bacolod with my boss, Ma'am Ayee. Maskara Festival that time, and we were able to buy some souvenirs(maskaras) before returning to Manila. Sorry, hindi ko pa madudugtungan ang part two ng Iloilo trip ko.

Iloilo-Bacolod Trip Part I

2007-10-25T17:04:00.000+08:00

Biyaheng Iloilo

Bus, jeep, tricycle, pedicab, barko, kalabaw, lahat yata ng klase ng transportasyon ay nasakyan ko na, liban sa eroplano. Takot kasi akong sumakay dito, dahil ito ang sasakyang siguradong tigok ka kapag nagkaaberya(well, hindi naman lahat). Pero sa pagkakataong ito ay hindi ko na ito maiiwasan, lalo at mismong boss ko na ang bumili ng plane ticket para sa akin. Mas madali ka nga namang makakarating. Kaya wala na talaga akong nagawa.

October 18, 2007 ang biyahe ko patungong Iloilo, nakakatuwa at nakakainis ang naranasan ko mula rito. Mula opisina(sa Pasig)hanggang airport, andiyan ang trapik at siempre dahil first time ko ay medyo aanga-anga ako sa gagawin ko. Buti na lang at likas na sa akin ang pagiging makapal ang mukha at hindi ako nahiyang mgatanong. Dito ko nakilala ang isang babaeng nasa edad 50, at nagtatrabaho sa DOJ ng Aklan, at nagkataong kasabay ko rin pala sa eroplano. Nagkakwentuhan kami ng mahigit isang oras. Sa tagal ngb pag-uusap namin, napagkwentuhan na namin ang Boracay at Baguio, pero hindi namin natanong sa isa't isa kung anu ang mga pangalan namin.

Ala una pa siya naghihintay at napostpond ang flight niya kaya inabot siya nag limang oras sa paghihintay. Akala ko'y ligtas na ako, pero tulad niya, delayed din ang flight ko, imbes na 7:05 pm ay naging 8:40 na. Pero swerte pa rin kami kumpara sa ibang pasahero nung mga oras din iyon.

===

Marami pa akong gustong ikwento kaya sa susunod ilalahad ko yung ibang karanasan ko sa aking biyahe. Sa ngayon ay nasa Vigan ako, kasama ang mahal ko. Birthday ko bukas kaya nag-aantay ako kung ano ang sorpresa niya sa akin. :-)

I'm Leaving on a Jetplane..

2007-10-16T20:22:00.000+08:00

Wala lang, gusto ko lang kantahin. Kasi may relation sa magiging activity ko this next days.

I'll be in Bacolod this Friday, and it will be my first time to ride an airplane!
Whew, siyempre, nandiyan ang nerbiyos, pero I am very sure that I will enjoy this trip.

Ocrober 18 7:05pm ang biyahe ko, pero sa Iloilo muna ang unang destinasyon. Then Bacolod na.
Tapos, balik ulit ako dito sa amin mag Sunday na, then pa-Ilocos ulit ako. Hay! Hectic ang schedule!

To all my visitors, I am sorry po talaga kung hindi ako laging nakakapagpost at comment sa mga blogs ninyo, ang kaya ko lang gawin ay mag-iwan ng mensahe sa mga shoutbox. Please bear with me(please?) At parang ganito ulit ang mangyayari this week kaya pasensiya na po talaga.

SECRET PLACE

2007-10-14T20:32:00.000+08:00

It was a very exhausting week, pero sulit .......ika nga. I've learned a lot of things that would help me in giving trainings to other people. We had our training in a very mysterious place(looked like a hotel outside, but it looks more of a dormitory on the inside) At first I didn't notice anything ecxept on the things like, it has its own conference hall, recreation area, canteen, and rooms. Until, one of my boss told us that the place was owned by an NGO that gives counseling and shelters some battered house wives and victims of sexual exploitation. The information makes me more curious, because I didn't saw anyone from them. Actually, I'm not only the one who was curious, all of us were. Our boss told us that we really cannot see them, because they were the ones cooking our food, other than that they do not really show themselves to any visitors. I think its a part of the emotional healing process. I was sad, because I wasn't able too see them or talk to them, but on the other hand, I was also happy, because there are groups that find ways to help other people. Maybe not all of us can work in that NGO, but we could be part of helping other people. Life is too short, but we could make it useful.

She Cried Last Night

2007-10-08T19:18:00.000+08:00

Mabagal pa konti, pero pwede na ring pagtiisan(ang internet connection).

I admit, Iwas happy to read Redlan and Elay's posts on my message board. They're waiting for my new post and they told me to take my time. I would like to thank them for the warm welcome na ibinigay nila when I published my very first post.

It was Chief, Elay, Redlan, Reyn, Tom, and Miss Kurdapya who were the first to send me a message on my board. Siguro may mga iba pang bumisita, and I thank them for visiting too.

Bukas, aalis naman ako. Babalik sa Sabado. Until now, wala pa ang CA ko. Good thing I still have extra cash, kasya pang pamasahe papuntang Manila. I hope this week I could get my allowance.

She cried again last night. Everytime na umaalis ako papunta sa field, umiiyak siya. Of course I know the reason why. Matagal kaming magkakahiwalay, at mamimiss niya ako. Ayaw na ayaw ko siyang makitang ganon because I feel sad too. But I need to do it. I need to leave for work. If only I could find a job here in La Union, para hindi na ako lalayo. But for now kailangang magtiis muna.

Weekend Fair

2007-10-05T19:32:00.000+08:00

Earlier this evening Rara and I went to the Weekend Fair at the City Plaza here in San Fernando. Unfortunately, hindi namin nadala yung pencam kasi memory full na siya; kelangan na naming i-transfer ang mga laman. After several weeks kanina lang ulit kami namasyal. And of course at the fair we ate some of our favorites- bread roll(with bell pepper), fried squid and the classic kwek-kwek.

Hay, tommorrow's Saturday but I got work to do. I'll travel tommorrow to Sta. Maria, Ilocos Sur to attend the meeting of a cooperative. Then on Monday I'll be in Pangasinan to check on the project; and then after
I'll travel to Manila for a training. Ganito lang lagi ang routine ko for the past nine months; I have to do it naman kasi nga trabaho ko ito. Hindi ako sasahod kung hindi ako magtatrabaho. My only worry until now is that my CA(cash advance) for September hasn't arrived yet. Eto kasi yung pinaka-allowance ko. All my food, transportation, communication, and even my board and lodging expenses, lahat sa CA ko ito kinukuha. And it's already October; I guess I'll have to use my personal money first.

My First Post

2007-10-04T19:15:00.000+08:00

I am a busy person. I am currently employed as a project officer and researcher at a non-government organization. And because of my line of work, I travel to different provinces and regions to give trainings and help communities with their livelihood projects. Nakakapagod. For the last nine months I spend 1/4 of my day in front of the computer, making some reports, reports, and reports. Then after, I check my email or chat with my senior officers or do some brief research on the net, and thats it. For the last nine months, I have no idea what blogging is. Until Rara told me.

It was her who told me that I should try blogging. Sabi niya, it relieves stress. Naintriga naman ako. So I registered an account and started to blog.

And this is my first post.

(Thank you Rara for the layout.)
