• Another Multi-National Company To Close Its Operations?

    How true that another multi-national company in Metro Manila is closing its operations in July 2009?

    This multi-national company is involved in Research and Development and Manufacturing of a product that is similar to the one produced by a rival plant in the CALABARZON area.

    Let’s hope that this is not true.

  • A Time To Hate

    June 30, 2009
    Life & Love

    There’s always a time for everything, as Ecclesiastes 3:1-15 says. After a series of bad events happened in my life since the start of 2009, I couldn’t help but trigger the hate feelings in me.

    I realize that no matter how much you wanted to be a good person, there will always be people or events that will provoke you to get mad. My emotions had been in perfect equilibrium before these events.

    My late mother, always the underdog, never fought back at people who betrayed her and used her. I always say that I could never be like my mother; she was born generous and I was born a bitch! But she influenced me in such a way that I forgot being a bitch. I forgot until these people and events triggered the monster in me.

    People who use other people and people who endanger other people do not DESERVE my understanding.

    People who speaks ill against other people for personal gain do not DESERVE my mercy.

    It’s my time to hate. These people have bad genes, no matter how much you try to educate them about the gospel, they wouldn’t listen or even try to listen. I’m sorry, Mama, I can’t be just like you.

  • Salamat At Dumating Ka

    June 4, 2009
    Life & Love

    Sa aking mister,

    Salamat at dumating ka sa buhay ko. Sabihin pang kaya kong mabuhay ng mag-isa. Iba pa rin pala pag nandiyan ka.

    Wala akong pakialam kung hindi ka man mayaman na gaya ng ibang nakilala ko. Hindi sa yaman nasusukat ang pagmamahal. Minahal mo ako ng higit at doon pa lang, nagpapasalamat na ako.

    Tinanggap at inaalagaan mo ang aking anak. Nakaramdam sya ng pagmamahal mula sa iyo na di man lang nya naranasan mula sa tunay nyang ama. Darating ang panahon, mas kikilalanin ka nya kesa tunay nyang ama.

    Maraming salamat at dumating ka sa buhay ko. Maraming salamat at ibinigay ka ng Diyos sa akin.

    Nagmamahal,
    Ang iyong misis

  • From Career Woman to Family Woman

    June 4, 2009
    Life & Love

    I am still getting used to being a family woman since I took responsibility of my 12-year old daughter a month ago. My daughter grew up with my parents because I was still in college when I had her. Since my mother died last May 2, I decided that it would be best for my daughter to stay with me and my husband who’s fortunately fond of her.

    My first days with her were like being with a stranger: I was a stranger to her and she, a stranger to me. I knew in our hearts that we were trying to patch up the lost times of being a mother and a daughter. By the way, I am just newly-married to my husband and the new role of being a wife and a mother just drive me nuts!

    My husband enrolled my daughter in a Christian school. It was not as good as her previous school in Bataan but it was the better choice among the schools here in Bulacan. I commend my husband for taking charge of her enrollment because I was busy with my reports at that time.

    Yes, I am a career woman. Or should I say, I was a career woman? When I met my soon-to-be husband last year, I was on top of being a career woman: long hours at the office, driven, dedicated, enthusiastic. I think I didn’t lose the enthusiam at work but now, I no longer spend long hours in the office if it’s not necessary. I have a husband and a daughter who wait for me to be with them for supper.

    I used to wake up at 7AM but since my daughter started schooling, I now wake up at 5AM to prepare her pack snack and pack lunch. It frustrates me when I see her nagging looks at me when she thinks she’ll be late for school. I would angrily tell her that I am not used to waking up at 5AM so the least that she could do is to appreciate me instead of putting the blame on me when she thinks she’ll be late for school. I told her that it is her responsibility as a student to watch her time and manage it well so she could commute early.

    Last night, I exploded. We were having supper; me, my husband and my daughter were in a gay mood. I mentioned to her about the 11-year old boy who died in a plane crash. I said that the boy travelled alone from Brazil to France but the plane crashed in the Atlantic Ocean before reaching Charles De Gaulle Airport. I said that if that 11 year-old boy could travel alone, crossing countries, then she could also commute alone in Bulacan. Her mood changed and later, she complained of stomach pain. Thinking that it was just part of her tantrums, I reprimanded her but when I realized that she was not faking it, I got very worried. I asked her her medical history but she could not answer me well. I exploded and told her that she should be telling me the details because I don’t know what’s wrong with her. I told her that it’s my first time to be with her in all those 12 years so I am clueness about her health condition. In the end, when my anger and frustration subsided, I realized that as a mother, it is my responsibility to know her health condition. I was very wrong in reprimanding her. I was very wrong in passing my responsibility to my parents.

    I am still adjusting to my new role as a wife and a mother but I know that it won’t take me long to do so. Now that I know that my family shall be on top of my priorities, I will have to shift from being a career woman to family woman. 🙂

  • Disgusting Baron Geisler

    May 29, 2009

    He was Jodi Santamaria’s ex-bf. He was also linked to Matet de Leon. He was one of the promising actors during his Tabing-Ilog days.He’s a self-confessed alcoholic. He has an ongoing legal battle with Patrizha Martinez, daughter of Yayo Aguila and William Martinez. Everybody recognizes his acting talent. He is wild, he is rude. Yes, he is Baron Geisler.

    I think he has a physical resemblance with the late Heath Ledger. ABS-CBN always gives him chances to prove his talent despite the bad publicities about him. Surprisingly, he jumped over to GMA-7 to do an after min-series with Yasmien Kurdi, Jennylyn Mercado and Nadine Samonte. He took a fancy on Yasmien and harassed her. Now, he’s out of “Suspetsa.”

    Baron Geisler doesn’t seem to give a damn if the public sees him as the anti-hero. He seems to be clamoring for attention; be it good or bad. He knows his perfect target: the young and unattached Yasmien Kurdi. He could have harassed Nadine Samonte but this girl is already going steady with Emerson Chua, he boyfriend of four years. He could have harassed the single-mom Jennylyn Mercado but Jen is so full of her own publicities that could eclipse his plans for publicity. Yasmien is known to be single and available; his perfect prey for his publicity.

    Baron knows that a lot of people still love him no matter how bad he has done. What this guy needs is spiritual counselling and rehabilitation. ABS-CBN, being his mother studio,would forgive him for all his nasty actions but I doubt if GMA-7 would do the same.

    Change your life for the better, Baron, while there is still time.

  • Hayden Kho’s Fetish

    May 21, 2009
    That’s Entertainment

    I’ve seen the three sex videos of Hayden Khow with Katrina Halili, a Brazilian model and newcomer Maricar Reyes. Who has the best physical asset? For the body, it’s Katrina. For the face, it’s the Brazilian model. For the stamina, it’s Maricar Reyes. If these videos did not came out, and if I would assume that these girls were Hayden’s “legal” girlfriends, I find nothing wrong with the way they executed their lovemaking.

    What is Hayden’s purpose in recording his every sexual encounter with these women? These women were not victims of his lust, if he was not really in love with them. These women were victims of his fetish. Yes, a fetish!

    How many videos are still waiting to be sold online? How is Vicki Belo taking it? Obviously, Vicki is not affected at all. If she were, she would not reconcile with Hayden in the first place after seeing Katrina and Hayden’s sex video.

  • Why Did God Take My Mother?

    May 12, 2009
    Wedding & Family Life

    I prayed for my parents’ long life
    To enjoy the fruits of my hard work
    Instead, my mother was afflicted with cancer
    A disease so life-threatening and so expensive to treat

    The cancer was discovered four days before she died
    We were treating her for diabetes for six months
    We were all unaware of the killer disease
    It was too late for treatment when we traced the real culprit

    I was too weak to comprehend why things had to happen
    My mother was young at 56 to leave us
    She was vibrant, full of life and inspiration
    Why, oh why does God had to end her earthly duties?

    “Your mother’s tasks on earth are accomplished
    She did a good job; now it’s her time to return
    All her physical pains will be left on earth
    She will be happier now and so you must set her free”

    I realize that my mother lived her life to the fullest
    She was a great mother, a great wife and a great daughter
    A loving sister, a loyal friend; she will be terribly missed
    Her legacy will continue to live; she will forever be loved
