hospital blues

the long wait is over! hehe. im finally have time to update. HOORAY! i missed my blog friends. hope you missed me too. :)

so what's up with me lately? why didn't i update earlier? uhhhm. my dad was hospitalized for the past few days due to diabetes. he had an injured infected inflamed foot which would explain why he lost his weight and appetite. we were all worried because the legs are most fragile when it comes to diabetic people. if not careful, it could lead to blood poisoning or the leg being amputated instead if left untreated. good thing, my ate ching called us and offered financial help. she sent us money and supported us all the way. a blessing really.

during my stay and me being the bantay of dad, it was hard. i haven't had enough sleep because
1) the nurses checks dad every now and then
2) the aircon was too cold ( hindi ako sanay) thus resulted to me having cold
3) dad keeps bugging me whenever he wants to pee, eat and tell me errands like buying drinks news papers etc.

but it also had advantages too like
1) i can watch cable (hehe.)
2) i can eat or drink whenever and whatever i want
3) i slouch on the couch all day

dad was very emotional during his stay. all of a sudden he cries then he refused some of the medications. he also wanted stuff that are very much bawal like sweets. he didn't have sleep too. he complain a lot about having difficulty pooping, his hand and so on.

i was also pissed whenever mom comes to visit. she keeps making reklamo at hindi nya inaasikaso si daddy. she just sleeps in my bed. i can understand if she's tired but can she at least be a dear and take care of dad for a few hours of the visit. if she's not feeling well, it's okay and she should rest at home. she also kept saying that we should have a medical ward instead of a private room. why making tipid when we know that we do have financial assistance it eh? im not saying that we should abused that but what im pointing in here is

"hindi materyal na bagay ang kalusugan! kung hindi iingatan yan, hindi na maibabalik yung mga mawawala. hindi naman ikayayaman ng isang tao kung bibigyan sya ng tamang gamot, pag aalaga at pag aaruga ng mga taong espesyalista. matanda na si daddy at napakahirap kung may kasama pa kami sa iisang kwarto."

the doctor also advised us that we should be in private because the condition of his foot is sensitive and can get infected if exposed to other people as well in a medical ward.

anyway, enough about the ranting. after his stay at the hospital the doctor said that he's okay to go. his foot improved well for the treatment and he got out today. he will go back for check ups and needed added medications.

just to add and make this entry longer i just want to share my two cents regarding Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center Canister Scandal.

we seek medical attention in medical centers and hospital in order to get well for our ailments. we want to be treated, taken care off and be cured for the diseases that we suffer from but what if something goes wrong? the scandal is about a gay guy seeking medical attention because unfortunately after having sex, a bottle of perfume got stuck in this rectum. after the successful operation, i guess he was relieved but someone said that a video containing the operation was posted on youtube. poor guy. after paying for the hospital bill, he also paid by being a specimen, an object of ridicule and of course a subject of laughter. and more over, the doctors and nurses were not satisfies, they had to share it to the world. post it on you tube. i was lucky enough to find and watch it. as i sign of respect, i did not post it here.

as for my opinion, i did not find it funny nor entertaining. i feel for the guy having to go through the torment of having a heart of a woman then being trapped in a man's body. we say that gays are accepted in our society but what does this video show?

cases like these are confidential and should be disclosed for the persons involved. i read about something called med ethics which states that patients should be well taken care off and respected because the pay for the services of the said treatments or medications.
the loud sound of the cheering, shouting and laughing from the video made it clear that they forgot the oath they swore when they were about to become doctors and nurses.

they are unprofessional and they do not deserve to keep their license. they should be punished to the full extent of the law.

come to think of it, we were once a punchline in some show where in our medical institutions are being questioned or mocked. this video proves what that statement meant.

then a priest comments and says its partly the guy's fault. okay, sure, yes. but i still find it absurd that just because the guy is gay, he paid more than he asked for. so much for the church's teaching "love your neighbor". instead of investigating, solving and making sure that this will never happen again, someone tolerates this kind of behavior. comment suggests that because somebody made a mistake it's a ground to violated his right.

sex is a normal thing. we have sexual desires and sexual drive. in addition, that does not exclude priests or nuns. who knows what they do to suppress their needs when it comes to this particular topic. i mean, who knows what they do inside the seminaries, church or convents when somebody is not looking around. pray? the lamest excuse. i do not totally believe that. after all, news like a priest raping a nun, molesting a confectioner inside a church, convent or having a child is not new. scandals that are not different from this guy's case.

whether he has sinned or not in having sex with the same sex, its not our business; gives us a right to mock him or more over reject him as a living individual that deserves an equal right just like everybody else.

equality and freedom of expression as well as respect.
is it so hard to give?

what's up with me lately


i've been so busy during the past few days (or was it weeks? hehe.) which would explain why i haven't been updating as much as i used too. i've been working (for my mom as usual) my ass off. this time it's not a computer shop i'm handling but a small drinking place. yes. we own it again. we are not fucking mayaman! if we were, i wont work okay? as a HRM student, its an added credential because it's my field however it's not what you think it is. it's a small time business and it's not really an establishment so let me get to the point.

I DON'T LOVE MY JOB! I HATE IT! X[

here's a couple of reasons why:

a) i'm not used to it yet.

b) i don't like serving liquor to tricycle drivers and alcoholic maniacs.

c) i hate being asked, talked or kulit by customers with my cellphone number.

d) i hate the looks of the drunk people! gives me the creeps!

e) i get paid really really really cheap! 100 a day and i work from 3pm until wee hours of the morning like 2am. stress! and more stress!

as of the moment, i really don't have a choice because my mom needs my help. sort off like support. i already started applying on new jobs and have several interviews coming so i hope this won't take long. wish me luck OKAY? badly need it. :D

what job? i won't announce it yet. haha! i'll blog about it later on. anyway, to all of my blog friends; bear with me. i would also like to apologize if i don't update or leave comments.
a little consideration and loving please! :)
don't worry. i wont go on hiatus. just enjoy your summer guys! ill try to keep in touch okay?

excuses


mistakes and failures are common, bound to happen. we are humans, prone to errors. an obvious truth. however, i do not agree that we should abuse this. more over, making excuses just to justify our actions or misbehaviors.

"eh kasi mahirap lang kami"
"eh kasi bobo po ako"
"may kapansanan po kasi ako"
"panget po kasi ako"
"mas magaling po sya"
"kasi broken family po kami"
"wala po kasi akong nanay at tatay"
"tao lang ako, nagkakamali"

most common excuses. i do admit i have once uttered one or two of these phrases and i resent having to do so. yes, we cannot be perfect BUT we can try and strive to be one. use the mistakes and failures to stand and try once again. never to repeat and do the exact same thing over. learn. we are given trials and challenges not to make us weak but make us stronger for the future. there are lots of room for improvement may it be old or young. life is a journey and as long as we breathe, its never too late to correct whatever we have done in the past. everyday is a new start and a new beginning for all of us. hope.

same goes for those who are smart, intelligent, rich or have high disposition in life. just because you possess or your better does not give any one a right to hurt and be nasty to other people. don't use it as an excuse or rather abuse those just to do whatever you want regardless of whether it is right or wrong. its purely immature and unethical.

Friendster



hehe. nabasa ko lang. share!
ganda eh.
galing sa -
http://www.geocities.com/jedoneseventhree

Friendster

pag nagsusulat ako. kadalasan, tungkol sa uso. o kung hindi man uso, sa isang usaping alam ng karamihan.

sinusubukan kong gawin ang mga sinusulat ko sa paraan kung saan maiintindihan at mas makukuha ng mga tao..

ngayon, may uso nanaman..

yung Friendster..

nakita niyo nang parating to no? nung bago yung layout ng site ko at kinalat ko sa mga tao, ang unang sinabi nung iba sakin..

"sulat ka tungkol sa friendster!"

shempre ang sasabihin ko naman: "oo nga e, yun na yung susunod na gagawin ko.. heh.."

kaya ito, ginawa ko nga..

nung simula palang, hindi na ako excited masyado sa friendster na to.. pinaguusapan to ng mga tao sa downs dati, tapos sila, sobrang excited na excited habang pinaguusapan kung sino yung mga "friendsters" nila.. tapos wala lang.. hindi ko binigyang pansin kasi mukhang hindi naman siya talaga deserving ng pansin..

nakakuha ako ng email galing kay jella na nagiinvite sakin para sumali sa friendster..

binasa ko yung intro nung email.. tapos wala.. hinayaan ko nalang..

kinabukasan, nakakuha ako ng isa pang email na galing naman kay rayms.. friendster daw.. kaya yon.. sige.. tinignan ko kung ano ba tong friendster na to, at bakit pati si ramys nasama.

nagpapafill up ang friendster sa akin ng impormasyon.. kung anong gusto ko, anong gusto kong libro, musika, pelikula.. lahat.. at dahil nandito na rin naman ako, binanatan ko na ng mga seryosong sagot..

ayon ako, nagffriendster.. naghahanap ng mga maidadagdag pa sa listahan ko.. 2 friends ang simula ko, kawawa naman ako, parang wala akong kaibigan.. naghanap hanap ako ng mga tao, at ayon.. nakahanap naman ako..

habang nagdadagdag ako ng mga kaibigan.. ang naiisip ko.. "uh, ok.. nagdadagdag ako ng mga tao..... ang saya..... wow.."

so kala ko wala lang diba? parang, paprofile profile lang.. "nothing worth being excited about"..

pero, bakit ganon?! WOW! anong nangyayari?!? BAKIT GANON!?

kaliwa't kanan, taas baba.. FRIENDSTER ang bumubulaga..

FRIENDSTER AMPUTA?

naririnig rinig ko rin na NAAADIK ang mga tao sa friendster..

taenang yan?

hindi ko talaga makita kung pano ka pwedeng maadik sa ganon ka walang kwentang bagay..

ano to? naadik ka sa kakalagay ng pictures at info? naadik ka sa kakalagay ng mga kaibigan sa listahan? naadik ka ba sa kakahunting ng crush mo? naadik ka ba kakastalk ng mga minamanyak mo? naadik ka ba sa kakahanap ng kaibigang pwedeng makilala? HA? WTF!? anong ikakaadik don sa taenang yon?

hindi dahil sobrang sikat ang friendster kaya ayaw ko na.. hindi dahil ang daming tao nang may gusto, ako humihiwalay para astig ako kasi kakaiba ako.. pero ang pointless lang talaga e? bat ka maaadik don? bakit ka hindi makakaaral dahil lang nagffriendster ka?

nakikita niyo ba kung bakit ang pointless non?

ang pinakamalapit ko nang nakikita sa friendster, yung pagchachat.. mejo mas maayos lang ang friendster kasi may ready profile at picture na, pero yung pagiinteract don, sobrang bagal dahil email based, kung hindi man, sa chat rin o sa YM mauuwi yung usapan..

ayon.. kasali parin ako ng friendster.. at habang nandon ako.. ang dami kong napansing pwedeng, "iexploit"..

ang unang kapansin pansing ginagawa ng mga tao, ay yung pagpaparami ng mga tao sa listahan nila.. mga taong kakilala nila, mga taong napakilala sa kanila at mga taong HINDI nila kilala.

wala lang, may contest ba sa friendster na paramihan ng mga kaibigan? naguunahan ba sila sa 500? makakakuha ka pa ng isang milyon pag naka-500 ka nang friends sa listahan?

pota, hindi naman a? so anong point non?

yun na ba ang cool sa mga kabataan ngayon? paunahang makaabot sa 500 at paramihan ng accounts?

wow, ang babaw naman non.

ok lang siguro kung puro kakilala nila yung mga inaadd nila e.. pero ganon ba yung nangyayari? hindi! add lang ng add! kung maganda o gwapo yung taong nasa picture, puta add agad! pampapogi rin yon ng friendster list!

nung bago yung friendster, yung mga kaibigan ng mga kaibigan ko, inaadd ako.. hindi ko talaga malaman kung anong dahilan ng pag-add nila.

kadalasan, ganito yung mga sagot ko:

1) uh, hindi ako yung sa tingin mong kakilala mo.

2) kilala ba kita?

3) sorry a, pero ayokong mag-add ng mga taong hindi ko naman personally na kakilala e.

4) wala akong balak makipagtextmate sayo pare, hindi ako naghahanap ng lalakeng karelasyon. hindi ako bakla.

kadalasan, automatic na yung pagwithdraw nila, minsan ako pa yung magrereject. minsan sumasagot pa.. sa dami ng nareject ko, madami na rin akong nakuhang violent reactions:

1) ndi tlga ikw yng kakla2x ko! wla meng supladong kakila2x!

2) hindi mo ako kilala? your loss.

3) FEELING MO GAGO! KALA MO KUNG SINO KA! DAPAT MAGADD KA NG MGA TAO KASI ANG KONTI NG MGA TAONG NASA LISTAHAN MO! GAGO! MAMATAY KA NA!

4) cge na pwease? SOT tayo, hot na hot na me. im tall sexy and very gay.

taena nga namang banat yan o. di ko alam kung baket may mga taong ganyan. wala naman silang karapatan magalit, kasi kaya nga may approve/reject feature yon, para free kang tumanggap at magreject ng mga taong naga-add sayo.

ano, diba? kung hindi niyo napapansin, may message bago ka magadd ng tao, nakalagay don, dapat sigurado kang kaibigan mo yung tao bago mo iadd. pero nasusunod ba yon? hindi rin e. add lang ng add mga tao. kahit di nila kilala, basta ma-add lang. tancha ko, hindi man lang magagalaw yung account na yon ulet. di man lang magmemessage kung baket siya naga-add.

isa pa sa mga kinaaaliwan ng mga tao sa friendster ay ang "testimonials".

bago pa lang nag friendster noon, yung mga tao excited na excited talaga sa mga pinaggagagawa nila. ang daming nagmemessage sakin ng: "uy gawan mo naman ako ng testimonial. pag ginawan mo ako, gagawan kita."

ano ba naman yan. humingi ng papuri. kulang ba ang pansin ng mga tao sa bahay kaya humihingi sila sa net?

at para saang purpose nila ginagawa to? para lang ba sa kanila? hindi rin e. malamang, ginagawa ang testimonial testimonial na to para maipagsigawan sa mundo ang mga magagandang traits nila.

ang testimonial ay parang palanca na pinapabasa mo sa lahat ng mga tao. ang palanca na dapat sa iyo lang, dinidisplay mo sa net para makita ng buong mundo.

kung mapapansin niyo rin, kadalasan sa mga testimonials ay may format na sinusunod. parang ang olats na talaga e. parang ang supot na talaga. tipong nagsulat nalang ng testimonial for the heck of writing it. hindi na dahil gusto, pero dahil obligado. ito ang mga mapapansin niyo sa kanila:

1) testimonials na nagsisimula sa pangalan sa porma ng patanong.

example: si brando? ah si brando astig yan! mabait yang tao at mahilig sa tsiks.

2) testimonials na inuunahan ng negative comment, tapos babawiin sa may gitna.

example: skwater tong taong to. putangina nitong hayop na to, mamatay na siya. wala siyang kwentang tao. magnanakaw na, ang lakas pa ng putok. sobrang itim niya dahil sa libag niya sa katawan. siguro kung naligo yung sa lamesa dam, kailangan nang itapon lahat ng tubig don dahil sobra nang contaminated ang tubig. JOKE LANG! seriously, astig tong taong to.

3) testimonials na nagbibigay ng background kung paano sila nagkakilala.

example: nakilala ko si romualdo sa chico. parati siyang sumasayaw-sayaw don na hubo't hubad. kaya nung isang araw na sumasayaw siya, binigyan ko siya ng damit para isuot niya. kaya lang yung bouncer don, kala DOM ako.. kaya yon.. pinalabas ako. sinundan ako ni rimualdo para ibalik yung mga damit na binigay ko sa kanya, nagshare kami ng yosi at mula non, naging matalik na kaming magboypren.

4) testimonials na nagsasabi ng negative first impression sabay biglang positive na sa huli.

example: nung una kong nakilala tong babaeng to, kala ko pokpok siya at wala siyang alam sa buhay kundi mangleech ng pera sa mga mayayamang panget. hindi pala siya ganon. kahit pala sa mga mayayamang gwapo ginagawa niya yon.

yan ang kadalasang format ng testimonials. pag may humihingi sa aking ng testimonial, sinasabi ko sa kanya na: "chong, di hinihingi yon, pero kung magpupumilit ka, babanatan kita ng generic na testimonial."

aba, pumapayag naman, inaapprove yung testimonial ko kahit walang kwenta.

ang isa pang nakakaburat sa friendster, yung mga surveys. taena. di ko lang alam a, nung nagchecheck ako ng friendster, puta, araw araw nalang may bagong survey. hindi ko alam kung baket.. para bang tuwang tuwa yung mga tao na may friendster kaya send sila ng send ng surveys na ganon. taena, di ko nga alam kung anong use ng ginagawa nilang yon e.

survey suvey.. sagot naman ng sagot mga tao.. kahit 100+ na tanong sa isang survey lang, puta sagot parin! tapos forward ng forward naman yung mga tao! kahit walang kakwenta kwentang survey, basta lang survey, forward agad! kung nakatayo sa harap ko yon sasabihin ko don "TAENA PARE BUMILI KA NAMAN NG BUHAY! masaya ka na ba jan sa ginagawa mo? NAGSASPAM KA NG BOARD KO HINAYUPAK KA."

nakikita niyo ba yung friendster accounts na "Chinita" o "Pinay Beauties" o "Cerified Pinay Beauty" at kung ano ano pa? taena, ang daming ganon. hindi ko alam kung baket add ng mga add yung mga tao sa mga ganon. taena, baka kung sinong manyak lang na sira ulo yung gumagawa non at add ng mga add ng mga babaeng maganda sa pictures nila. ang pointless talaga non e. nauso ng sobra at lahat gumawa na. ano, kung part ka ng grupong yon, maganda ka na? yun na ba yon? taenang yan.

kung hindi niyo rin napapansin, ang friendster ay napupuno ng mga batang pinoy. baka hindi niyo alam, pero dapat 18 ka bago makasali sa friendster.

may mga taong mas bata pa sa 15 na may friendster na. at wow, ang dami niyang mga kaibigan. hindi ko talaga alam kung baket ang special ng friendster. baket ba pati yung mga hindi dapat na nandoon, nandon na rin? ano, nakikiuso?

yun na nga yon siguro. nahpye up ng sobra ang friendster at naging uso. kung hindi ka friendster, hindi ka in. kung may nagtanong sayo na "uy, may friendster ka ba?" dapat masasagot mo ng "oo", kasi kung hindi, mabibigyan ka ng tingin na "puta ang jologs mo lumayo ka sakin, laos ka na"

kahit para sa akin, walang masyadong kwenta ang friendster at isa lang tong malaking kasayangan sa oras kung 30 minuto o mas marami pa ang ginagastos mo para lang dito, alam ko naman na mayroon rin itong mga magagandang nagagawa.

1) nakoconnect ka sa mga long lost friends mo.

marami sa atin ang nagkakalimutan na. ang friendster ay isa sa mga surefire ways para magkausap usap kayo ulet. malaking tulong nga naman. tapos minsan, may mga tao pang naliligaw na.. parang yung crush ko nung kindergarden.. ang alam ko, APPLE yung nickname niya. pero di ko na alam yung last. taena badtrip talaga o. gusto ko siyang hanapin ulet e. alam mo yon? para lang malaman kung kamusta na siya at kung ano nang nangyayari sa buhay niya. hindi naman necessary na maging girlfriend ko siya o ano, pero wala lang.. gusto ko lang malaman kung ano nang nangyari sa kanya.

pwede ring may mga kaibigan kang pumunta nang states o south africa o ano.. pag may friendster makoconnect kayo (kahit may email naman at Yahoo! Messenger at IRC.)

2) mas madaling mangstalk ng tao.

so ayan, may crush ka. ang alam mo lang sa kanya, first at last name. di mo alam kung san nakatira, kung sino mga kaibigan.. basta.. wala ka talagang alam sa kanya kundi pangalan niya at mukha niya.

dahil may friendster na, napakadali nang mangstalk. dahil ito dun sa info na nilalagay ng mga tao. di mo na kelangan maghanap ngayon ng kakilala niya para lang malaman kung ano yung mga gusto niya. maglologin ka lang, tapos magsesearch, tapos yun na yon. taenang yan. kumpleto. may testimonials pa! mas maraming information!

galing no? stalkers paradise talaga yang friendster.

3) ok magadvertise sa friendster.

yung isang ok na feature ng friendster, yung bulletin boards. ang dali lang kasing magadvertise don.. kung may gusto kang ibenta, bilin, gaguhin, murahin, magpromote, humingi ng prayer rally, gumawa ng rally, gumawa ng strike, magpaabot ng balita sa maraing tao, ideclare sa mundo na bakla ka, sabihin sa mga taong magpapakamatay ka na.. effective talaga yon.

kung kulang ka rin sa pansin, post ka lang don, malamang makakakuha ka rin ng pansin mo.

yang friendster na yan, parang link-tv ng upper classes: sayang sa oras, kuryente at pera.

sa mga kaibigan ko talaga, kaunti lang yung nagsimula ng friendster accounts.. yung ibang nagsimula na, dinelete rin dahil nakita nila na walang kwenta naman ito.

kung naghahanap ka ng karelasyon at talagang seryoso ka sa paghahanap pero hindi mo kayang makipagusap sa personal, frienster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung nawala ka na sa piling ng mga kaibigan mo at gusto mo silang mabalik sa buhay mo, mapachildhood friends man o ano, firendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung isa kang psychotic stalker na sobrang obsessed sa isang taong kahit kailan hindi mo malalapitan, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung isa kang pakyut na tao na gusto mong lubus-lubusin ang pagshoshots, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung wala kang kaibigan pero gusto mo ring maramdaman ang nararamdaman ng mga taong sikat, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung isa kang geek na hindi mo talaga kayang makipaginteract sa mga tao in real time (kahit sa chat) pero gusto mo parin makakausap ng babae o masabing "kaibigan" mo sila, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung walang silbe ang buhay mo, wala kang trabaho, hindi ka nagaaral, wala kang ginagawa at wala kang balak gawin, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung mahilig kang sumabay sa uso, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung naaaliw kang magadd ng mga taong hindi mo kakilala sa FRIENDS LIST mo, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung sa tingin mo hindi ka makakahanap ng mga babae o lalakeng ganon kagaganda o kagwapo, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

kung natutuwa ka sa kakatingin ng pictures ng mga taong hindi mo kilala at info nila, mapalalake man o babae, friendster ang sagot sa iyo.

pero kung hindi, iwasan mo ang friendster kahit na ano pang mangyari dahil wala talagang kwenta to.

"to each, his own."

hindi ko sinasabing skwater lahat ang may gusto ng friendster, ang sinasabi ko lang, para sa akin, walang kakwenta kwenta ang friendster at hindi to dapat kasayangan ng oras at pera. walang rason para maadik dito o malulon.

follow up on emo



Emo kids are now being beaten up to a pulp in mexico and other countries.
VIOLENCE and TOTAL CHAOS.


Intersections:

A bizarre wave of mob emo-bashings is sweeping across Mexico. The movement is being generated on message boards and social networking sites by non-emo youth who highly dislike like the emo look and attitude.

L.A. Weekly:

In Mexico, emo culture is a butt of many jokes. It is either despised intensely or generally ignored. But it’s only the despising sentiment that lately has been getting wide airply. In the above clip, a Televisa on-air personality named Kristoff expresses a serious dose of anti-emo rhetoric and switches to English to say, on network television, “Fucking bullshit” to the emo movement.

UPDATE:

Austin American Statesman:

Emos have begun to fight back, organizing marches in Guadalajara and Mexico City. And voices have begun appearing warning of a creeping intolerance in Mexican society. Gilberto Rincan Gallardo, a columnist for the El Porvenir newspaper, argued this week that tolerance is the foundation of any healthy democracy. “If a group of young people like (emos) decides to get together and live life in a certain manner, and doesn’t hurt others, it’s the obligation of the Democratic state to protect them…It’s easy for an eccentric and easily identified minority group to be stigmatized and discriminated against…It’s the responsibility of the authorities to make sure the threats aren’t carried out and the aggressions are punished.”

Anti Emo Revolution in Mexico:

Well, you may have read the thread in which there is mentioned the attack against emos here in Mexico,

By now, the attacks against emos have happened in three cities here in Mexico, one of them was Mexico City, which is the capital, and the anti-emo community has summoned the people to attack emos in lot of cities in the country.

Small aggressions had occurred in all the country, and Anti-Emo Communities are rising quickly

An interesting fact of this, is that the Heavy Metal community is not the only one against emos, we can also find that, pop-listeners, skaters, punks, goths, and other people are against emos here in Mexico.

But why metal/rock listeners are not the only ones against emos???
The answer is simple, emo attitude here in Mexico is anti-youngster: they do not drink, they do not have sex, they do not have fun, they go to concerts just to cry, they go to parties just to sit in a corner and cry, and they feel victims of everything, it is really, a very stupid behavior.

Hipster Runoff has some thoughts:

Anyways, I just wanted to congratulate Mexico on going out of it’s way to EXTERMINATE a trend, as opposed to just simply moving into a new consumer-driven trend with a little bit of a self-loathing tone.

It’s good to see that people can unite using the internet, and stand up for a cause. I mean, myspace drama is one thing, but to transform that passion into a WITCH HUNT where emo kids are beaten down in broad daylight is simply amazing.


My thoughts:

Okay. I hate the new emo scene but its not an excuse to beat them up. It's totally unnecessary and issues should be settled in a diplomatic way. These kids are totally immature and unethical.

Recall - EMO


hehe. can't think of a good entry.
recall nalang. :D

as of my last entry, pinoysrock and anino commented about what brian said on the concert which was "We're bringing you true metal. you won't have to hear anything from a whiny little b-i-t-c-h about a girl breaking his heart. fuck the emo trend we're bringing you metal!".

here's what i think

EMO is dead for the simple reason that i see no passion in kids today really. majority of them thinks that the most important part is about fucking labels, how cool they are, what they wear and how good the tears fall down. boasting and self proclaimed assholes. dammit! making GOOD MUSIC TO THE EARS was never a consideration and an option to these guys. the lamest thing they are proud of is the term suicide. the problem lies not in the music itself but the people in it and what they are projecting! influencing people in the wrong way. they are close minded people because as much as possible that we correct you, we are said to be "mayabang". why not google in the internet eh?

here are my rants.

its all about mass media production. where what matters most is not the passion for playing music but doing business. sell more records and influence more kids. media sucks. quantity vs quality. go to recto and you'll find red jumpsuit apparatus, paramore, taking back sunday and saosin labelled as emo. ITS NOT! AND NEVER WAS! NEVER WILL! profiters never care about that because really. how it affects the scene and damages the industry.

emo's are good in recording but they suck at live performance. what's with crying on stage? people pay good money to see a good performance and there you are crying like a little baby deprived of his candy. i remember the bands such as texas is the reason, orchid, saetia and others in the 1980's which was considered emo. (correct me if im wrong, no bands ever admitted that they are emo. there is no concrete basis of emo really but it does exist.) some of it was lyrically and emotionally brutal and to talk about the performance, it was alive and kicking! as the years pass and generations pass it on, from good it became worst. the original term emotional hardcore was now emo. just that means slashing, suicide, super sad, crappy, fashion, good looking thingy.

i have no qualms about self expression. its everybody's right. if they wanna cry all the time, sure. but you get to live only once and just once so why sulk and live in the past? why waste it over a problem that will eventually be solved anyway? love problems? LOL. get over it! love is like a game either you win it or loose it. everybody goes through that once in a while! they are not alone! they are the ones at fault for making their lives miserable. so why blame it on music? i find it stupid and immature. so yeah, some music are sad but its wrong to repeatedly dwell in it and never move on. life is a continuous journey. we are given trials, challenges to make us stronger and not the other way around.


another thing, i can never understand why they have to brag about their suicide marks. if they wanna die, why not shoot themselves. its not cool and its not in.

they say that of all of the genres, EMO is with the most emotional content. music is considered art therefore it was created and made through expressions, ideas and emotions of both your brain and heart. now tell me, shakespeare was emotional, so was john lennon. if EMO is so great why can't it stand on its own? They always have to stick themselves to goth and punk.

its not a sin to make your lifestyle similar to your kind of music but not to the point of over acting and out of place! you go to malls / gig, with a cape, all black as if somebody died, two inches of eyeliner under the eyes, colorful styled hair (usually pink), too many accessories, super tight shirt and pants, really ragged then gate crashes and causes all sorts of trouble ruining all the fun. if they really like that image and sooo desperate why not apply for a job and lets see if they get the job.

last but not the least, what's with the gay thing? gay or not its does not necessarily consider you as emo already. its a choice. lesbian, girl or boy you can be emo.

true music means no boundaries, no labels, no genre just TRUE GOOD MUSIC TO THE EARS, being open minded and accepting it as it is.

the problem lies not in the music but the people IN it.

music for me has no face, no image, no fashion statement and HELL no fucking demands about the latest trends.

IM FREE FROM ALL PREJUDICES!
i listen to any form of music from classical, old school, rnb, ballad and latest as of today.

and i listen to emo too. :)

Shadows Fall - Live in Manila 03.15.08

Shadows Fall is an American heavy metal band formed in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1996. Although the band has experienced several lineup changes, for most of its recording career Shadows Fall has comprised of Brian Fair (vocals), Jonathan Donais (guitar), Matt Bachand (guitar), Paul Romanko (bass), and Jason Bittner (drums).

Since its formation, Shadows Fall has released five studio albums, two compilation albums, and one DVD. The band's first album featured Philip Labonte on vocals, although he was soon replaced by Fair. Shadows Fall's first two studio albums featured David Germain playing drums, but in 2002 Bittner joined the band full time. The band is currently a Grammy Award nominee in the category Best Metal Performance for the song "Redemption" off the album Threads of Life. - wikipedia



ONE FUCKING HELL OF A NIGHT!
The only perfect sentence that can describe the experience when i was on the a. avenue on makati the night of march 15, 2008.

i admit. im not really a fan of shadows fall, i only went as a chaperon to my boyfriend. at first, i felt like i was an outcast. who wouldn't be? almost everyone wore black shirts, tops and jackets with black/camouflage, then shorts and pants plus the famous different colors of chuck taylor. i on the other hand was very much normal. i wore a green top, skinny jeans and tsinelas. i had my menstruation too which would explain why i can't move much, scream or jump around. BUMMER. it's frustrating, I KNOW.

around 8pm we arrived at the venue. the line was long and the security was tight. they wouldnt allow digicams. fortunately, i bought a big bag with me because i have a test the next day. (yes, its sunday. my school is super weird!) we were able to get the cam inside.

the venue was good. its worth the pay! its well ventilated, cool and comfortable.
hindi siya masikip.

everyone was free to move around.
there was free beer together with the tickets. i didn't use the tab. haha! i dont drink. i bought a shadows fall t-shirt instead courtesy of tribal gear as a memento.

there were celebrities too like dylan (the host and vj of jack tv.) - she's small but beautiful. and talkative too. sib was also present (the mtv vj). he's suplado but cute. and kat alano who was absolutely stunning that night! haha! she experieced the mosh pit and was able to laugh it off afterwards. haha!

when we got there, the bands were already playing.
gayuma, valley of chrome, intolerant and sin.
gayuma, the band winner of musiklaban 2008 didn't gave an impact to the audience. i think they failed to flare up the kids.
valley of chrome came in next and gave energized performance. the vocalist even pulled the cord of the microphone because of widly jumping around the stage. atleast, they made the kids dance around and bang their heads.
then intolerant, i wasn't impressed really. the look of the vocalist gave me an impression that he was tired or sleepy. plus, they were constantly playing and said nothing.
and last but not the least, sin. i think, they were the best opening act. i mean, the white kids were impressed. they even gave him the hand after their set.

around 10pm, all the opening bands were finished. the long awaited show is about to begin. the lights were off and it took some time to set up the stage. the black curtain dropped and there was a huge statue of a mutilated man. the kids were restless. they were shouting "shadowsfall" every now and then. but here's the funny part. they even shouted "emo sucks". its a metal scene, so yeah. its obvious. i just pity those who were there that was emo. its like "OUCH". haha!

and after a few minutes. BOOM! they played. the first track was "Redemption" from their new album "Threads of Life". They gave it all. I couldn't ask for more. We were even singing together with them.

All the world will hear you, Our voices can't be bound, All the world will hear you, Redemption in the power of the sound.

Nobody cared what you wore that night, if you were metal or not. As long as you jive and bang your head to the rhythm of the music. IT'S FINE!

Brian never failed to be with the crowd, talk and shake hands. He was dancing on stage. It was amazing that he can move his head with those big dreadlocks of his. He even gave a statement that made the audience roar! "We're bringing you true metal. you won't have to hear anything from a whiny little b-i-t-c-h about a girl breaking his heart. fcuk the emo trend we're bringing you metal! " He enjoyed singing for us and even took his shirt off. Yummy! haha!

Jon Donais was so good with the lead guitars! You can hear the every note. A handsome guy. Nakakatunaw yung ngiti. Haha!
Jason Bitter gave a drum solo. A powerful performance. Just like Jon, you'll never miss every beat.

Too bad i can't describe all of them.
Haha! Bitin?
We were at the right side watching and me being such a small person can't see the other guys playing on the left side.

And here's the playlist too.
redemption
venomous
the light that blinds
burning the lives
storm winds
thoughts without words
enlightened by the cold
of one blood
failure of the devout
forevermore

fleshold
destroyer of senses
what drives the weak
inspiration on demand


They gave us an encore when we shouted "more, more". And of course, they gave in. It was nice of them.

At the end of the show? They threw away their arm bands, pics, drum skins and other valuable memorabilia that a fan would die for. Unfortunately, we couldn't grab one.

And oh yeah. There were hilarious moments too. Like a girl being trampled by guys on the mosh pit, walked away pissed and swerving and a drunk man vomiting his intestines off. haha!

I will never forget this day.

THE PICS!

the ticket



Valley of Chrome

Sin


SHADOWS FALL






















The most important part? Seeing my boyfriend happy from the arrival until the departure.
Worth every bit of my penny. A perfect gift.
Memory. Forever treasured and remembered.
I love you dhie. :)

Binibining Pilipinas 2008

Bb. Pilipinas Janina San Miguel



Naiinis ako.

Kung mapapanuod nyo ang vidyo na yan maririnig at masasaksihan nyo ang mali maling ingles sa pagsagot sa simpleng tanong. Hindi ko pinapahiya ang babaeng ito o nilalait. Gusto ko lang magsabi ng saloobin at sentimyento ukol sa usapin at kontrobersiya na bumabalot dito. Ang patimpalak na yan ay ginaganap para hanapin ang mga binibini na hindi lamang likas na maganda kundi matalino. (Hindi ko sinasabi na ang pagsasalita sa wikang banyaga ay nangangahulugan ng katalinuhan. Maling paniniwala yan.) Isa rin sa dahilan kung bakit merong patimpalak na Binibining Pilipinas ay para sa panunuood at kasiyahan ng bansa gayun na rin para sa ating mga kababayan na Pilipino. Ngayon, ano nga ba ang kinaiinis ko? Mayabang ang babaeng ito pero hindi siya bobo, tanga lang siya. Bakit? Hindi nya pala kayang magsalita sa ibang lengguwahe bakit pa nya pinilit? Dapat bago sya sumali inalam nya ang mga kahinaan at mga kalakasan nya nilang isang kandidato. Bukod pa riyan, nakakahiya ba ang magsalita ng tagalog? Yan ay sariling atin. At gaya nga ng sinabi ko ang patimpalak na yan ay para sa mga Pilipino. Base sa aking napanuod, ipinakita nya na mas pinahahalagahan pa nya ang ingles kesa sa sarili nating wika.

Tandaan nyo ang mga sinabi ni Jose Rizal - "Ang hindi magmahal sa sariling wika, daig pa ang hayop at malansang isda." at " Ang kabataan ay pag asa ng bayan".

Kung ganito ang mentalidad ng kabataan ngayon eh wala na nga talagang pag asa ang ating bayan. Oo. Bukas ako sa argumentong maari siyang kinakabahan at bata pa siya pero hindi yan dapat gamitin para maging palusot sa pagkakamali nya. Hindi ako sang ayon sa pagkapanalo nya. Para sakin hindi sya karapat dapat na tanghalin at koronahan na Binibining Pilipinas 2008.

Ang kagandahan ay hindi nakikita sa panlabas na anyo lamang bagkus sa pagmamahal nya sa sarili nyang kultura, pagkatao at kapwa nya.

paumanhin sa mga hindi nakakaintindi sa aking sinulat ngayon.

flirting while committed

Main Entry: flirt
Part of Speech: verb
Definition: tease, to court triflingly or act amorously without serious intentions; play at love; coquet.

Synonyms: banter, chat up, come hither*, come on*, coquet, dally, dilly-dally, disport, eyeball*, fool, gam*, gold dig, hit on*, lead on, linger with, lollygag, monkey with, ogle, philander, pick up*, pitch*, play, proposition, sport, string along, tease, toy, trifle, vamp, wanton, wink at*, wolf-whistle


ever heard of a committed guy or gal who continually flirts? irritating huh. the temptation and all. insecurity is the factor! yeap. its not that complicated really. why? its to boost their confidence. i mean take a gal for example, if she is confident, she wont flirt around, seduce committed guy or fool around when her partner is not looking around. clearly, it indicates inferiority complex, jealousy and the likes. add the other factors, the restlessness, sadness and lack of contentment she may have in her current relationship and thus looks for another comfort by having this behavior. but really what do they gain from it? aside from the bad reputation. for all we know she or he could be the joke. a complete mockery and a laughing stock. the good part - they so love doing it. not only that, they hurt people as well. selfishness. they are getting what they want at the expense of ruining other people's relationship because in reality they can never attain those.

but don't get affected okay? because if your partner loves you enough and is happy, content and satisfied with your relationship, he or she wont settle for anything less than you. he or she wont replace you with a trash picked up from down the street.

a piece of friendly advice to committed guys and gals, don't get pissed when somebody flirts with your partner okay? they are just insecure. they badly need attention. dont give them the satisfaction of getting on your nerves. don't ever go down to their level. :]

different blogs and bloggers



i'm into bloghopping and i cant help but notice a couple of things from reading a bloggers entry.
peace. what you'll read is just my opinion.

1. the copy paste queen
- its a senseless empty blog and you can call it plagiarism blog. just to make an update, you copy paste then have some little comment then that's that! its okay once in a while but if in entry entry, its boring. and yeah, please do credit the REAL AUTHOR, don't claim it on your own. its virtual stealing.

2. the great pretender
- you post pics of the past claiming its the present and your too full of yourself saying that your oh so beautiful when your not. face it, stop acting like a celebrity. no one is even commenting in your blog. duh?

3. the oh so emo
can you update a little more happier than that? go kill yourself.

4. the hater and ranter
rant rant rant. nothing but complaints.

5. sarcastic
everything you post are intended to hurt someone in particular (im guilty on this one :P )

6. the sleeping
you keep visiting other blog and cboxes then asking for link exes but you never update.

7. link ex addict
its similar to number 4. you keep asking for link ex but then you never comment, be friend or read the other blog. unfair huh?

8. the oh so bright and eye hurting theme
too much of everything is bad. choose an appropriate and good theme that will suit yourself. take note of the color, some hurt when i read some blog.

9. the over decorated and slow uploading blog.
again, too much of everything is bad. don't put too much thingy in the blog. it lowers the uploading time.

10. ZE copy cat
seriously, you copied my profile, the pictures, the theme, the music. everything.
have originality okay?

11. comedy!
this one is i like. happy and hilarious post. fun to read.

12. reflection
i like this one too because the author posts her/his ideas and anything that comes into mind. the artistic, poetic and writer side is shown as well as the true personality of the person. you get to know the blogger.

desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love,
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

the view on the bus to home

As i look at the sky on my journey to home, i can say that i am truly blessed for i have peace of mind. i can sleep well at night without a care in the world. my conscience is very much crystal clear, i've done no wrong with my fellow men. i kept my silence amidst the noise and bark of others. i have my head up high. even if they try to pull me down, i wont budge a single finger to extract vengeance. why? i wont drag myself to dirt, i know somebody else will do that for me. truth will come out eventually.

i avoid loud and aggressive persons they are vexations to the spirit. but sometimes, it can't be helped. even so, dont be provoked and don't satisfy their needs. patience is a virtue.

love yourself, be satisfied and dont compare yourself with others. it will result to envy and insecurities.

treasure trust. give it to those who deserve it. keep in mind that the world IS full of trickery. not everybody is what you think he or she is. be careful. always guard your back.

dont pray for the distress of others. its bad karma. it wont give you ever lasting happiness only bitterness.

whatever God you perceive him to be, always keep in touch. be humble and always ask forgiveness.

life maybe cruel and unfair still happiness is a state of mind. poor are those people who don't possess that. tsk tsk tsk. they'll still live with envy, insecurities and restlessness. WAHAHAHAHAHA! X]

Limitations, Disadvantages and Advantages


Friends are special people who make a bond and mark in our lives. They are either looking behind us like a brother or a sister, a helping hand and a crying shoulder. Most of the time, we share the time, problems and happy moments with them. But together with that there are certain limitations. A little may hurt and a lot can lead to total destruction of the relationship one way or another. We must always remember where to stand, when to speak and when to meddle. The irony is, we can give them the comfort and but we can never give them the solution to the problem so why make it worst? Every time there is a battle, should we put our armor as well and fight side by side knowing we do not have the weapon? Should we pour fuel to the raging fire? No. We should always weigh things. Being friends does not necessarily demands a person to be a "kakampi". In my opinion, there's nothing wrong in taking sides as long as you know the whole story and base what you think is right according to ethics or moral. But to literally make "sawsaw" and act as if the person was there? It wont do anything good, trust me. It will lead to more complications and make the scene far more bigger. more fucking drama!

Another thing, when it comes to love relationship of the other, we cannot dictate the matters of the heart but we can only ease the pain. Although we can make ourselves instruments of blossoming love like cupid or be the bridge to put them together. However, we must take it in that being so does not entitle us to put ourselves in their shoes then make decisions for them nor should we try to ruin their relationship just because you dont like what's happening. Only two people know what really happened, how they feel and we should let them face whatever they may have. Tango is for two people, not three and certainly not four.

Being the constant companion, we are subjected to the saying "birds with the same feather flock together". Yes, most of the time this is true but not all. Some of the traits and qualities maybe similar but due to human complexity we can never find another exact match that match all like a clone. I also believe that this saying comes true becomes the other tolerates or goes with the flow with the behavior because of the term "pakikisama" (likely evident on cliques, groups, barkadas and tropas that are composed of more than two people). It can either be an disadvantage or advantage. If the other becomes blind with the wrongs she or he sees then becomes influenced and sooner adapts the bad habits its likely an disadvantage. In another situation, if the other is consistent, persistent, refuse and even try to persuade his or her friend then its definitely an advantage and is considered true friendship.

A friend will never cause you harm, teach you wrong or lead you to your own humiliation. He or she will never take advantage of you, abuse and use you.

A true friend accepts you for who and what you are regardless of your appearance and social status. He or She is there whenever in need without any hesitation and expects nothing in return.
