The innocent blogger on the pic...take a look how innocent i am........lolz 

The bookstore angels with our head Maam Fe Namoc. Aspiring to be different, creating friendship beyond the limits of wordly cares. 

Reminiscing the year that was....our motto: WE MUST LEARN TO LIVE TOGETHER AS FRIENDS, OR TO PERISH TOGETHER AS FOOLS! 

The beautiful bookstore angels. The sexy and gogeous girls ... mmm , how time flies fast..whatever happened to these girls...two got married, one became cpa, one became a banker, the rest i dont know their whereabouts 

Happy

Just dropping by, have nothing to say, oh well, last night I went to a wake at my friends house. I wasnt expecting to enjoy my stay there but hey, i did! I survive until 4:30 in the morning. Met and talked to new buddies...well , well, its was fun fun and fun, ironic it may seem to enjoy during a vigil.........mmmmmmmm...thats all for now


life is simple, ironic it may seem because of the complexities it brought in.

Maribeth and Weng

Mmmm, how fast time flies. Too many things happened, half remembered, half forgotten.

But friends can never be forgotten.

Two of my friends who happen to walk the aisle today at Knights of Columbus in Tagbilaran City Bohol are one of those people whom I wont forget in my entire life. THey have made a mark in one of the chapters in my life.

Noel Gementiza, he's the guy that became an instant friend when we first entered the portal of our school way back in college. We are working scholars then and trek our way to the bookstore department whom we met lots of colleagues who later became friends too. We call ourselves bookstore angels. Well, aweng as i fondly call him, is the type of guy whom every lady would fall in love. Not the typical teenager if you may look at him, but his appeal would tell you otherwise.

Maribeth Butron came to the office when I was in third year college already. I was one of the very first people in the office whom she befriended. She may look sarcastic because of her mestiza look but hey you should know her first and you be the judge. This lass is very cool and friendly. and did I mention S.E.X.Y? no adjective can Mr. WEbster give to describe this lady.

Today, the 23rd of October 2004, they will be tying the knot to formalize their love and ask God to bless their relationship (well,actually as of this writing, the ceremony may already be finished!). An ungainly pair whom I never imagined would end up together. They never confesses their love for each other not until they have flown away from our second home way back in college. I just heard it when I was already in Mindanao, too bad , i never had the chance to attend and be the witness of a genuine love made realize before the eyes of god. Nonetheless, i know they will understand my absence. In fact I have called the guy the other night to congratulate her in advance.

Now, my only wish for them is true happiness that may last forever!

Best wishes Mr. and Mrs. Gementiza, God speed!

JASMIN DELUSA, CPA

I got a text which reads "J, cpa na ko" ("J im already a cpa) FROM Raye, aka. Jasmin Delusa. My heart leaps in joy for finally she has made it. This is her second time to take the board exam, and this time she made it.

From the first she failed, i have been a witness, not physically though, of her constant hardwork to be able to achieve that three letter attachment to her name...CPA..certified public accountant. As the review goes on, she always ask for prayers. Well prayers can do wonders, isnt it Raye?

Anyways, I did check out the papers yesterday, and , viola! DELUSA, JASMIN BRUNIDOR at Manila Bulletin page 12. Somehow it gives me pride and joy for this girl once became part of my life. And i already knew that she can make it to being a certified public accountant for she has the brain, what being a deans lister during college, that something for an ordinary student like her, who, prefer to do her way to the top away from the limelight.

We always have joke with each other that when she will be able to attain that three letter attached to her name, then well gonna be marching the aisle to bond our love, and now the time has come, UNFORTUNATELY, it wouldnt be materialize. She has live a life separate from mine and I do have my own life to spare too away from her.

Thats life i guess, the right person came in the wrong time... Honestly im quite happy with my life now, though there are still problems that haunt me, its only natural for humans and i know she also happy with her life.

Good luck girl in all your endeavor, and hope you wont change.

Congratulations Ms. Jasmin B. Delusa, CPA

I Salute you.

Questions versus opinions

when things arent in the same perspective as they were when it came into your life, you will feel the feeling of awkwardness and you may begin to hate this thing.

In this world where all pretentions and deceptions are in play, we could no longer distinguish real and genuine love from fake one.

Confused mind leads me to write this blog.

Can girls not be predictable enough? Isnt the word SURPRISE not included in their vocabulary?

Cant they not be weak all the times? Well, i mean, i understand females are the weak gender but hey, some girls are just too insecure about themeselves and they used their weakness to show to the world that they should be given attention. And i guess its not attention that they wanted in the first place...its PITY.

Are males be forever be the displayed as stuffs by females? Come to think of it, some females are just too showy. They wanted to tell the world about their partner. Well that would flatter men, but too much would irk them too. I mean , why the hell you will shout to the world that you do have partner right now? Isnt it that youre telling them that you have finally catch a fish after long day of fishing? Isnt it ironic to be like that when girls supposed to display prim and proper attitude

Can some girls be poised enough for themselves. Some are just too childish or pretending to be one to the point that they arent doing themselves a favor? Too much ado about accessories but they never knew how to carry such, simplicity is elegance

And can they not refrain from too much non-sense sweet nothings because instead of giving the other that much needed inspiration, it give a fallback procastination of a long overdue hard hit of a boxer's fist.

well, im not in my right mind so just bare with the way things going on here in this blog, the ideas are mixed up....lolz


***life is simple, ironic it may seem because of the complexities it brought in.***

Hahah, as i browse for pictures to post in my blog, i came to this old pic with an old office mate, this was taken last during christmas party of yesteryears at our boss' house. Whatever happened to this young man...and whatever happen to the person behind this blog, take a look and reminisce the good old days...... 

ON SEX AND FANTASIES

This is the topic we had the other night with my girlfriend on the phone. A not so serious talk but with serious topic like that.

Unwittingly or unexpectedly the topic came out when she shared an experience of her friend Shane with her current boyfriend Danny

Out of youthful aggresiveness and curiosity perhaps on this three letter word, the girl experienced her first, or was it first, that i dont know of.

On my personal opinion, the girl is to be blamed for where can you see a respectable girl who join her boyfriend every night at the boarding house of the latter? If and when the clouds covered the light that the kingly sun has given to the earth, the body heats up a cold evening and wherelse would it go but to that three letter act.

Oh well, I have come to the point of the girl, she may believe that the guy she's with would respect her, and that her staying with him would only show her love , but hell fuck, two bodies of youthful existence in one place? No matter how gentle a man would be, no matter how he would respect the girl, there will come a time that the worldly care will call, and unfortunately it did already, unfortunately again, they werent succesful enough to combat the temptation.

NOw in this dilemna they have been, they still are with each other and each night would mean another hug, another sensually arousing night of love , passion and desire for both of them. The question would be, when will this end? ITs a matter of choice for they are old enough to see what possible consequences they will encounter if ever that dreaded thing will come.

FENG SHUI, RETOLD AND REVIEWED

Last night, I watched the movie called Feng Shui starring Kris Aquino as its lead actress. It is already on its 4th week of run in theaters here, thats why I was eager to watch it.

Based on the critic's reviews and those who have watch the film, its an awesome Filipino drama-suspense thriller. In this blog, ill gonna give my views as an ordinary movie goer.

Feng Shui is a movie obviously based on the Chinese beliefs and/or tradition of putting lucky charms, and anything that may bring good luck to a person or family. A mirror is the focus of the story. It brings good luck to anyone who put it outside their house. Its called "bagwa" i dont know the real spelling, but its sound like that.

Joy Ramirez (kris Aquino) got a "bagwa" which a bus passenger sitting by her side unintentionally left it. She did try to call the attention of the man but her efforts proves futile.

Before going home she drop by the bakery in the neighborhood. The owner of the bakery saw the lucky mirror and told joy that is brings good luck to whoever has it in their homes. She take a look at the mirror and saw herself on it.

True enough Joy got lucky in her career as well as his husbands'. But with each luck brought she got, a life of people who have seen their image on the mirror is at risk. The guy who have left the mirror in the bus was killed by a snake near Joy's house and the owner of the bakery died of leptospirosis, a disease caused by the rat. It so happen that birthdate of these people are evident on death. Like the guy who was born on the year of the snake and the bakery ownner born on the year of the rat.

Despite the luck she got, Joy isnt happy for she found out that Inton, her husband is going with a former lover Dina. Yet she love Inton that much as well as her children.

Next blessing came when Joy won in the supermarket raffle. The roving guard of the subdivision died at the cockpit site, and he was born under the year of the rooster.

Joy's house is now full of mysteries and other inhabitants that they just feel. In trying to solve the mystery behind the mirror, Joy went to the widow of the man who have left the mirror in the bus.

Accordingly she got it at the house which she cant sold when she was then an estate broker. She wanted the mirror back and willing to pay , but joy refused for she knew the curse wont be stopped even if the mirror will be at the formers hand.

Together with her friends, they consulted a feng shui expert and they have learned that the original owner of the "bagwa" are two chinese brother and sister. They were landlords in their place but when their slaves were into revenge, the brother escape from the dilemma while the girl, who happen to be the lotus feet (a tradition of japanese in which they put metals on the ladies feet so that it wont grow as normal as it is). The outrage of the people catapulted and resulted to the burning of the house. While the house was in hell of heat, the poor lady together with the mirror was left inside. The lady then cursed the mirror that whoever will get hold of it, will be lucky but life of people around will be the price it will cost.

Joy tried to ask for the solution as to stop the curse but the old man told her that he dont know and he has to read books to be able to find the answers.

On their way out, Joy's friend was trembling for she used to see her image on the mirror.

When luck came to Joy again, her friends life was at risk. A drunk cost her life by throwing her at the window, she landed at the cases of REd HOrse beer below. She was born under year of the horse.

The feng shui expert called Joy and told her about how to stop the curse, the only way according to him is to deny any grace or luck that may come her way, only then she can destroy the mirror and it wont be whole again.

But Joy never get into the advice as she cannot deny the child, a friend of his own child who was in danger. She donated a blood to save his. After the blood transfer, she got a premonition that it would be Inton's life be the next.

She called her friend to drive her children home for safekeeping as she have to go to Inton at the moment.

She went to Inton to let him take precautions but Inton was shoot by Dina's husband whom he is engage in a relationship with. Inton, under the year of the dog, shoot by a man with a dog tattoe on his arm.

Joy's children together with her friend, trek the national high way when they spotted a vehicle in front of them full of chicken and cow. Joy's children are under the year of chicken and cow

The next day when Joy arrived home, an attorney ask her to sell the lucky mirror but joy refused. Afterwhich, she destroy it.

Later, her friend came together with her children. Joy was very happy because theyre all safe and she proudly told her friend that she has stopped the curse. Then her friend told her that they also have a surprise for them.

Her children came out from the house together with their father , Inton. And Joy came into her senses. They're all dead. Her friend as well as her children got accident at the highway. . . .

TECHNICAL ASPECT

The movie is one of its kind, its not the usual stereotyped Pinoy horror movie and Director Rono is at his best for this one. Cinematography is great, editing is superba and of course the sound effect is awesome.

ACTING
Kris on her best so far, as what her mother in an interview told the press. Yes, she is great in this movie, she has proven that she can be called an actress other than being the Oprah of the philippines and queen of daytime talk.

RATINGS: superb

Isnt it IRONIC

Ironic, this is what HTA batch 97 are known for. THis moniker we got from our then principal Sr. Alejandrea S.sp.S can be viewed in a positive way yet for some it may sound like a negative sobriquet.

Whatever that word means, we learn to love and accept such. We now call ourselves ironic. And proof to that, we have created a yahoo group called THE IRONIC BATCH...<<>> our way of keeping in touch with each other as years passed by. Since some of us are away from our hometown bohol, we can still be updated with each and everyone through this web group, modern technology bridging miles and keeping the bond of friedship.

We have just celebrated our first anniversary online last September 20, 2004. A chat session aptly called, IRONIC GRAND CHAT, was held from 6:00 oclock in the evening till midnight. Ironics from Bohol, Cebu, Davao , Manila and from the states were there to celebrate, and im proud ive been an instrument for us to unite even more. Im very thankful for them for supporting the yahoo group which i created and for responding to the call for a grand ironic chat in line for the anniversary of the batch online.

So there you go guys, a batch to remember, a batch so unforgettable that it made a mark in the history of the school. So united so unique as ever.

As always, our battlecry..........IRONIC RULZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

This is Sugar. An angel who graced our home unexpectedly. She has made our family bond even more. She brought in happiness and she changed our outlook in life. Sugar has grown to be a bright girl. And im proud i have been one of the pillars that help her stand to see and conquer the world. She maybe young at this point in time, i know she can make it in the competitive world out there. I just hope that what we have taught her will bring her to the stars of her dreams. I love you sugar. 

Me , myself and I...hahaha...trying to give a new look to this blog. From now on, ill be sharing pictures of me and people around me, my adventures and misadventures, for the initial salvo, this is it,,the person behind this blog 

Ian

There are times in your life that a person will come just to say goodbye.

A couple of weeks ago, a person named Engr. Ian D. Guazo came into the office and become part of the workforce.

Who is Ian. He is a certified engineer who happen to be destined or should i say, make a short stop at our company as he travails the corporate world. HIs youthful exuberance made the office alive and kicking every saturday.

He has proven to everyone in the office that first impression never really last. It was remembered when he first took his way to the portal of the office, maybe out of youthful freshness and aggresiveness, he got an impression from everyone being a boastful person. And as days pass by, he has changed that persona and became the darling of the company. He has shown radiance and confidence that lighten up his aura.

Unfortunately, such radiance and luster he brought to the company was short-lived. He has to leave to continue his quest for his own personal career improvement. As always, till the very end, he never changed his attitude towards everybody and of course to me, whom he has always communicate when he is at field.

We were civil at each other though my attitude as he always describes me is totally the opposite of his.

As he take his journey towards life, i just hope that everything wont change, instead, i hope that the memories will be the bridge to the friendship we have established. And his short stay in the office taught us to relax at work. All work no play makes Juan a dull boy. Now it would not always be work, we need to relax to completely do our jobs. And Ian taught us to be like that.

Thanks bro. I wish you all the best as you trek the road you choose. I hope that you will find your place in the sun where you wanted to be in the first place. Good luck.
