politics and opinions

Well, its a relief that the people didn't have to store food and goods in their homes in case chaos arise after the 2010 elections. Generally, the elections was ok, we were able to pull off this 1st time automated elections, although because of incompetence, geographical problems, negligence, election violence and other factors the elections was still not successful. :(

For one, How can people wish to change the country if:
1. the same people were still given a spot in the government, like Ramon Bong Revilla, who opted to change his surname to target voters who choose popular names. It's absurd to bank on ballot positioning rather than be confident that he will win because of what he had done for the people as a senator, if there is one :( What do we call his politician wife now Congresswoman Lani Bong Revilla? or his surname differs from his family now? quite ridiculous huh!
2. How will the ring announcer call Manny Pacquiao if he fights again as our boxing champ? "Pound for Pound Champion Congressman Maaaannnnyyyy Pacman Pacquuuiiaaaooo, will he take a leave everytime he will train and fight?
3. The president is now a congresswoman need I say more?

whoever said that Filipinos are now intelligent voters?

food writer

It's been a while since I've last written something here, and the thought that I am blogging now signifies that I am no longer tied up to work and other things. :)

I just finished IFEX Philippines, the country's premier event for exciting food options was held at the World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay last 6-8 of May. lots of delectable food ideas was showcased and sampled in this comprehensive trade fair for food. I was assigned to write all the collaterals and to head the media work for both IFEX 2009 and 2010 along with its international food fair stints but maybe I will be saying goodbye to the food industry for MAYBE i'll be assigned to a new industry soon.

I am a food writer for CITEM for almost a year and a half, it was fun, satisfying and I will definitely miss writing delish pieces for food.

Going to Bohol :)

e-ticket and e-receipt already received. I am getting ready for a trip to Bohol with Rommel and hopefully some of our friends :)

Happy etneb trip :)

I feel blessed :)

Just got back from a 2-day recollection held in Angels Hills Tagaytay :)

Our retreat masters Fr. Erwin and Kuya Ding were both a blessing from God for giving us fresh insights and to develop a much deeper love for God.

I am really blessed for feeling the presence of the Lord with my family and Rommel. Not everybody is given the opportunity to grow with the Lord beside family members and loved ones and this is enough for me to really believe that God loves in ways i don't always fathom.

Thank you Lord. :)
I love you.

wherever you go... go with all your heart

those were the only words of Mr. Jun Lana in his blog that still left me pondering about my own situation. If I were to paraphrase it and apply it on myself it will go like this -

If I stay in one place... I must stay with all my heart.

I don't even known if a fraction of my heart is in here so Can anybody show me the right way out?

:)

as long as I have my family and etneb I am ready to endure.
as long as my true friends are with me I will be happy.
a hard life doesn't matter as long as I have them everything will suffice. :)

I know U're just there :)

Lord, You are in control of my life, let Your will be done.

I see you :)

buti nalang I did not fail to watch Avatar :) thanks Apol for recommending it:)

days after I watched it may hang over pa din ako, the idea was fantastic and the execution is superb kahit na ang weird na human ang invader this time it still reflects reality b'coz what is it that people can't do for money?

It's a nice movie and I hope although it might be a an impossible dream for now, hope FIlipinos can reach the same level of movie excellence.

I must say that its not just a movie to watch but an experience not to miss. :)

I'm afraid

but I know God is with me. My strength is in my faith.

was left suspended in midair!

new word in my vocabulary: understandee and the understander!

I am the understander because I was left with the task to always understand my friends and they are what I now call the understandee.

Lots of alibi's and they expect you to bear with them over and over and another over again. Sorry about this, sorry about that, was all I ever got.

I guess they just don't know the meaning of friendship after all.

and I must say that everything has its limitations and this time I cannot take it anymore.

I just can't continue caring. I am sorry but I am out.
