i feel so happy and proud to be part of this project- Reach for the Sky 2,

moreover being the pointperson of the project here in Pampanga --

can you imagine how bugged, worried and harassed i was for 2 weeks

because of the preparation?

sobra. feel na feel ko ang stress at pressure.

lalo na when Sir Bien (VP lang naman namin) asked me,

"Where you involved during the 1st Reach for the Sky?"

i said, "yes." then he said,

"Good! At least I can now say that I am confident that you'll do even better this time."

OMGosh.

Earth Hour Celebration 2012

60+ - with Kimidow, Pao and MJ

sabi ko sa kanila, "magpa-picture na tayo habang wala pang tao!" hehe

i don't really smoke :)

 thank God, i never liked smoking.

i did try it in the past. taga-sindi ng yosi ng mga kaibigan, pero buti na lang hindi ko nagustuhan.

ang usok kasi e! haha

i always think na sana yung pinakabatang nagyoyosi ngayon, siya na ang huling smoker sa mundo.

para pag deds na siya, wala nang smoker :)

the Earth will be free from smokers! yey! :)

fwends: V, Brook, Miami, Athens and Manhattan

 someone from this group promised to stop smoking for that night :p

Current Read: Crossing the Threshold of Hope by Pope John Paul II

"What remains for such a man? Only the words that Jesus Himself addressed to the apostles: "If they
persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours" (Jn
15:20). And so: "Have no fear!" Do not be afraid of God's mystery; do not be afraid of His love; and
do not be afraid of man's weakness or of his grandeur! Man does not cease to be great, not even in
his weakness. Do not be afraid of being witnesses to the dignity of every human being, from the
moment of conception until death."

Hall & Oates - Sara Smile (Live, 2003)

thank you Mama for introducing me to Hall & Oates. i truly thank God that you have great taste in music. :)

Sarah Smile is one of my many favorite songs by Hall & Oates. this tandem/duo/band is the bomb!

one vivid memory of this song was when we were in Zambales watching the sunset, then i suddenly had a bright idea to get the Hall & Oates cassette tape and play it on our radio. that beutiful sunset became magnificent!

Martika - Love Thy Will Be Done [HQ].avi

i think a lot of peoplewill be surprised if they find out that this song is actually spiritual/religious. :) even i was surprised.

i always sing this song. it's one of my random, top-of-the-mind song. i've known it since i was a young child, and even at a young age, i knew the lyrics by heart. but it's only that i really read it and chew on it. here's the lyrics!

Love Thy Will Be Done
by Martika

Love thy will be done
I can no longer hide
I can no longer run
No longer can I resist the guiding light
That gives me the power to keep up the fight ooh-oh
Love thy will be done
Since I found you my life has just begun
And I see all of your creations
As one perfect complex
No one less beautiful or
More special than the next
You know I'm lost and so I still accept
Thy will love be done

Love thy will be mine
You make me strive
For the glorious and divine
I could not be more more satisfied (satisfied)
Even when there´s no peace
Outside my window there´s peace inside
And that´s why I no longer run (I no longer run)
Love thy will be done

Love thy will be done
I can no longer hide
I can no longer run (no woah oh)
Love thy will be done
Thy will love be done

Oh no longer can I resist (no)
The guiding light (guiding light)
The light that gives me power to keep up the fight
I couldn´t be more satisfied (no)
Even when there´s no peace outside my window
There is peace inside
And that´s why
I can no longer run
Love thy will be done
(Will be done) love thy will(will be done) Oh
Love thy will be done
I can no longer hide
I can no longer run (no woah oh)
Love thy will be done
Thy will love be done

Thy will love be done
(Ooh oh woah oh)
Thy will will love be done

Tonic - You Wanted More

I dont know when I got bitter
Love is sure better when it's gone
Because you wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
And a life that I can't live

1 Patrick Stump & Daryl Hall - Sugar We're Going Down (Live From Daryl's...

i immensely enjoyed this, even without Pete Wentz on the video :)

i love Hall & Oates ever since i was a child, thanks to Mama Rose for introducing their music to me :)

and although i miss Pete Wentz & FOB very much, Patrick Stump makes up for it with this collab :)

Apple's V Day ad

just my two cents...

i just feel like they didn't need to do this ad.

yeah, every company/product needs to do some follow ups,
some follow through campaign

but apple is apple.

it's apple.

and WTH with the engraving??
...and the signature gift wrapping??
lols
it's so baduy. srsly.

the visual is blah.

just doesn't do justice to what apple is.

or was.

i have my own insecurities to deal with, so don't give me yours.

face it. deal with it.

Troy's Photography

i think Troy really likes cameras and taking pictures, so i'm thinking of putting up a Flickr account or Tumblr or Blogspot account featuring only Troy's photos -- photos he took and photos i took all under his careful direction/dictation.

hmm.

Paved paradise: SM Baguio and the logging ban

“They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.”

That's in the lyrics of a Joni Mitchell song that talks about her experiences in Hawaii looking out at a spectacular vista, then looking down into a gray parking lot.

The citizens of Baguio city, once labelled as the city of Pines, have in the past week been up in arms about the plans of mall network SM to do just that - pave over an existing forest and turn it into a parking lot.

This news comes just a month after the devastation in Cagayan de Oro and the multiple floods that have prompted the current administration to declare a total log ban across the country in response to the multiple extreme climatic events that have devastated many parts of the region. Including the city of Baguio, which has experienced flooding, multiple landslides with loses of life, including just recently a trash slide in the city's dumpsite in Irisan.

What Ateneans Do Wrong After Graduating

I was having dinner with my boss and her husband (all three of us Ateneans) when we talked about the difference with how Gloria and Noynoy sees life. Gloria being the realistic one and Noynoy being the usual, ideal Atenean. Then her husband started narrating about how only few Ateneans become successful in life at the age of 40, with his roster of friends as a perfect example. People at the age of 40 who still don’t own a car and cannot even settle down for once. Or worst, they just realized the right thing to do to become successful but it was too late already. And here are the things we talked about over dinner, and his advice to fresh graduate Ateneans like me. And this made sense, I am telling you. THIS WILL BE MY DIRECTION IN LIFE.

1. Having our heads up “on the hill” a.k.a too much self-esteem/ Atenean pride
The first thing that I realized when I worked is wherever you work, you can never use your school as your ticket to success. It can be an advantage for you at first, but if you only use the school name as your claim to fame, then you’re doomed.

i found this on tumblr

and thought that this is a good reminder of what we try to be.

besides, we were not just to do plain human duties.

we are special.

we are co-creators.

remember, He created us in in his own image and likeness.

so we better do something good and great,

or at least try.

Holly Valance - Naughty Girl

this song makes me really miss Laus Group and my former Marketing and Communications Department colleagues - Lea, Kit and John. Pati na din yung mga friends from HR Department - Irynn, Sarah, etc :) Syempre pati yung pinaka-boss ko dun, si Sir LPL. i guess, he's the best boss i ever had (so far)

wish i could go back and work there again. or, find a new job with a workplace and workmates that are as equally awesome.

can't believe that my longtime office-partner/friend would possibly work there very soon. sobrang nakakainggit..... pero i'm happy for him. go get 'em, Cyp!

by the way, thanks to Kit for introducing me to this song :)

It has removable illuminated Glo balls that fade to dark after 30 minutes.

They have nothing electronic in them so they don’t get warm and they won’t break.

ice, buffalo, pasta

i needed some boost of energy today, so i bought a signature iced choco drink from Starbucks.

i think i've really become a Starbucks person.

SB Signature (iced) Chocolate

i used think i liked CBTL better

(or maybe just because we don't have CBTL yet here in Angeles City/Pampanga)

actually, i am not supposed to take cold drinks,

and i was supposed to buy medicine for my colds,

but when i got to the pharmacy i didn't know how much mg i should be buying, haha

i cooked buffalo wings for lunch yesterday :)

i swear, it looks a lot yummy-er in real life :)

and i swear that the chicken wings were cooked,

no bloody bones inside.

also, Jep liked it, Mima liked it,

i think Dennie liked it, too

because he also ate it for dinner :D

or maybe he didn't have any choice :p

oh, this is the start of my cooking prowess! =)

next time i'll prepare some sort of baked pasta

just like the ones my Mama used to cook.
