...

The crazy things we do for love... and the even more crazy things we do just to stay away from it.

Derek Needs a New Anna!!!

Remember when this went nationwide and all became LSS-ed about this song?


Isn't that sweet? yup! But, look how sad Anna's reply was:


So the best way to "basted" a guy now was through the internet? 
*sigh*

Broken hearts. Is the world full of hearts slashed in two? In threes? in fours? into tiny particles? Jay said no. I'm on my punch line and there he is interrupting me. Now, I couldn't find next words for that line. He asked me to write this instead... The heart shouldn't be broken. It should be liquidized. Sorry. He forced me to type those promising me that we will win this thing. =) He continued: It should be like rain, something you can't count. Like  soda, that can goes into you, pass through your veins, mix with your blood. It should be water... a living blood in your system, in your society. I'm quite amazed with his words. But I asked him, "If you will make the heart liquidized, it wouldn't have a special place? like now it's on our chest right?" He answered, "If it's liquidized, the special place will be anywhere. Like how it is now, it's on your chest, but it's everywhere.... when you close your eyes. When you do things, you give your heart out. When you love, you... just let your heart flow. You are even willing to give it to me? Don't you?"

Okay, enough of too much cheeze, pimiento and cheese ring.

What happened when Anna broke Derek's heart?

His family are to the RESCUE. As usual, to whom do we turn to when things goes beyond the boiling point... No one else but to those people who loves us for who we are unconditionally-OUR FAMILY.



I remembered my brother. As I said, the only way to heal a heart is to find someone new: 

So let's all help Derek  hook up with a new ANNA!!!!

Eid'l Fitr @ The Block, SM North EDSA

WHAT: Eid’l Fitr Festival 
WHEN: August 24-26, 2012
WHERE: The Block, SM City North EDSA

~o~

Annually, Muslims celebrates Eid’l Fitr, the Festival of the Breaking of the Fast that marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. This important event usually falls on the first day of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic calendar. It’s a time of joy, forgiving and thanksgiving among Muslims as they take the occasion to strengthen ties with family and friends, give gifts and zakat (alms), and feast together. Here in our country, Republic Act No. 9177 declared Eid’l Fitr a national holiday.

This year, instead of having this celebrated within the ARMM Region where most Muslim communities reside, the Eid’l Fitr Festival goes to the metro and takes centerstage on August 24-26, 2012 at The Block, SM City North EDSA, Quezon City.

The annual national cultural event of Eid’l Fitr Festival is an excellent springboard to build a better understanding and appreciation among Filipinos of ethnic, racial and religious diversity in the country. This event brings mallgoers of The Block, SM City North EDSA closer to the richness of the cultural heritage of Muslims in the Philippines that lays strong foundations for stronger social, economic and cultural partnership between Muslims and non-Muslims, create a positive environment of mutual trust and confidence among Muslims and non-Muslims and, provide an attraction for tourist arrivals from the Islamic countries who go on vacation during the Eid’l Fitr.

Let’s join Chef Lau’s Dinner Party!


Celebrity chef and the man behind Bistro Filipino, Chef Rolando Laudico together with Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief (CSPR) is throwing a party and you can win an exclusive invite for 2 to join the sensitivity pain-free party as he shares and celebrates his success over tooth-sensitivity with Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief.


As for me, I want to be on this party to ask 3 things:
1. When he cooks, does he think of the crowd more and adjust to their taste or he simply cooks from his heart?
2. As a person with no talent in cooking at all, I wanted to ask him the secret of cooking sensitive pain-free and yet delicious meals/desserts? Especially, when we all know  tooth sensitivity ruins our total food/eating experience.
3. Chef's are normally private people. Why did he particularly chose to partner Colgate on this event?

The Many Meanings of J

To all liars:

Lying is a tough task for the brain. So when a person thinks too long over a question, chances are he’s lying.

Lucas

At noon, na-realize ni Lucas, tapos na siya kay Bessie. At tapos na rin siya sa kanyang mga kuwento. Pag-uwi ng bahay ay buburahin niya ang file at wala nang makakabasa pa ng mga iyon. Dahil hindi mo puwedeng mahalin ang isang tao nang hindi mo minamahal ang hilaga, silangan, timog at kanluran ng kanyang mga paniniwala. Kapag nagmahal ka’y dapat mong tanggapin bawat letra ng kanyang birth certificate. Kasama na doon ang kanyang libag, utot at bad breath. Pero me limit. Pantay-pantay ang ibinibigay na karapatan sa lahat ng tao upang lumigaya, o masaktan, o magpakagago, pero kapag sumara na ang mga pinto, nawasak na ang mga puso, nawala ang kaluluwa at ang bilang ay umabot na sa zero, goodbye na.

What took it so long?

I left the corporate world last year on the last day of January. In less than a week, a Web Marketing Company offered me a job. I accepted that job where my duties include writing Search Engine Optimized articles and PR's for the company. I lasted 5 months there and decided to try my luck abroad. And I'm lucky... After 3 interviews, I'm hired as a Copy writer for an Online Radio Station in Georgia. I could've worked there however, the company didn't start before my Visa expired and up to this date they are not yet operating. Somehow, I still wish that they will hire me when it starts. 

So, I went back to the Philippines ready to take a quick break and go back to the corporate world. I originally planned to start working after my school sem is over. BTW, I was home December 28 and as early as January 4... I'm scheduled for an interview. Isn't that fast?


When my copy writing job in Georgia didn't push through, I asked why God didn't give me the thing that I wanted the most? It's always been my dream to work in the US. I always wanted to bring my family there like how my mother desired to retire on that country. Also, the money I would earn there in a month is too impossible to earn here in a year. God knows how much I dreamt of this all my life and I know I did everything to reach this... I applied, got accepted but why didn't it prosper? Why? I questioned God a lot of times. I continued to ask myself on what part have I failed and on what part have I not given my best. 


My questions were answered now. Maybe, God knows what I wanted the most and that is to be with my family. There are times when I imagine myself in Georgia with all the things that I wanted but I'm alone... with no family to be with. It gives me sad moments that never happened... thank God. 


Right now, I'm an online contributor for Yahoo! Voices and Foreverdope. Also, SM offered me a PR Coordinator position that I accepted. Now, I don't ask God anymore on why I wasn't a copywriter in Georgia but I just thank Him for letting me be who I wanted to be, letting me be where I wanted to stay and letting me have the people I wanted to be with  in my life. =)
