without him...

without him, marhgil will not exist, this blog will not exist and you will not be reading this right now. he funded my education, my food, my shelter, everything. i will not be who i am today if it is not for him. because of this, today on his birthday, I would like to greet him.. "Happy Birthday Tatay!!!" Thanks for everything.

unlucky but lucky

now... angelo de la cruz is free. i can call him now as the unlucky yet lucky guy in the Philippines.  Ang mamang malas na, ay swinerte pa. But if you'll ask me, I still don't want to be in his shoes. I heard GMA's speech... she said that she has no regret for her decision. That's good. I think, it's time for Filipinos to unite for a common good. Wala nakong masabi... tomorrow, I promise.. iL have a long post... topic.... bukas nyo na lang malalaman...

sneezy weekend

my weekend was really bad. got colds, with runny nose... sneezing the whole day, even my eyes were irritated. Huh!! Neozep and Neozone really helped me feel better now.
 
got my pending checks on first quadrant... just some small amount.  Got to encash it tomorrow in I-bank. I still need to regain strength and start my network again.
 
got to sleep early tonight.
 
that's all for now...
 
 

Hostage crisis

The hostage crisis that the Philippine government faced these past few days is really a headliner, you can read it on the newspaper, see it on TV, read it on the net.  And I really appreciate GMA's decision to pull out the troops in Iraq to save the life of Angelo de la Cruz. All I can say to America... life is more precious and more important than our relationship with you! Philippines should not be afraid if America withdraw its support to us. We are Filipinos, I believe that we can survive without America.
 
Just a thought, what if... the hostage taker of Angelo de la Cruz demanded that GMA should step down from the presidency to give way for FPJ? Will she give in? Hehehehe. Or... let's make it lighter... they demanded to open the certificate of canvass. Will she give in?
 
I think, Pangilinan will just say... "Ok... it is Noted!" Hahahaha!!!
 
  

cramps!

I woke up early this morning with a pain on my right leg... cramps! Remembering what my father told me, I immediately stand up and tried to stretch my leg. I was successful and the pain vanished after around 5 minutes, thanks to my friend Allan, he was there to help me. Huh!

i learned how to setup dhcp! downloaded some tutorial on cisco call manager, c++ training materials... and listened to MP3s the whole day!

what happened??

huh! long time no post! to those who are waiting for some news on what happened on me on Davao... well, the waiting is over.

Here is what happened... I met her... and we live the most memorable 3 days of our lives. Went to jack's ridge to view davao... ate at kuya ed's restaurant... where the most delicious buko pandan is being served (hehehe)... ate at chicken house for some grilled chicken... (where i noticed that the restaurant just beside it says "ituro mo... iluto ko")... i have tasted for the first time the famous durian of davao... (though i cannot take it without a coke)... bought some pasalubong at sm city davao... met her parents... watched Maala-ala mo kaya's "guhit".. where i can't understand why Hero is projected as being so poor but can afford to pay their telephone bills and let their electricity being cut...

that's all... i'L update my photo album later this week...

i would also like to take this opportunity to thank diavox for giving me a salary increase... thanks a lot... sir ramon! and to ITS-Kuwait... you still owe me 1 month... my bank account is waiting......

now i'm learning new things.... new technologies... new knowledge... and probably... more projects in the future.

davao,davao... here I come!!!

I'm going to Davao tomorrow!!! Why? To meet someone so special to me, someone who I love, someone who'll be my wife soon. :)

Special thanks to my friend Ronwaldo Duag, for making this plan of mine a reality. I hope, the weather is fine tomorrow.

Please note that I am on vacation leave tomorrow and all your emails will be read only on Monday when I come back. This blog will be updated again on Monday, iL free myself from the Internet these coming 5 days.

That's all for now.

There is no place like home

arrived safely last July 2 at 4:00PM at Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila. I have so many pictures to share... iL update you when I already posted it on my Photo Album.

I decided not to connect to the internet for the last two days... Saturday and Sunday... to give myself a break... a life away from work.

There really is no place like home. It is good to be back!!!
