You'll laugh and don't like to be them


Here's my Simpson character






I write this entry with emotion because of the unscrupulous person sent me a messaged yesterday afternoon (Philippine Standard Time) on my you tube account that she claimed that this video is her property. So was it weird to claim something not yours? It is weird in a sense, that I don't know her personally.

There could be a lot of times I exchanged message to her just to correct her perceptions about it. For the longest time , I have not been treated like that on the web... that something very stupid on her part.

The funny thing when she messaged me on my you tube account, I was on my way to Kondrad Adrenauer Asian Center,before leaving GT Tower. That person sent these messages to me:

hope u don't claim that "tue or thurs" practice video as yours because it's MINE. i respect the fact that you like BP, but it's bad to grab someone else's video and claim that it's yours because that was the day that i got in BP...that was from my fone. some BP members noticed already what you did, and i don't think that's a very nice way of showing appreciation to the group members.



please tell your friend then, that it is WRONG to do that. i don't care whether it's been uploaded months ago, because youtube is a public domain where it can be accessed by all who like BP anytime, anywhere. ERASE it from your page then. don't wait for the other members to comment on this, because they all know that i am the source. i don't want to make this a very big issue, but it is insulting and unfair to me. i uploaded my BP experience to share it. it's quite offending that it's been "stolen", eh i shared it na nga with everyone.

i work and study in ateneo too, and it's quite a shame that she doesn't know how wrong that act was when it's been taught to her to know the rules on publishing and plagiarism.

i hope you understand. thank you.



actually, wala naman issue kung pinasa-pasa. the issue is the DESCRIPTION of the video that she made in your account. maybe you need to look at it again.

"This was the video we made for bukas palad in one of their nice dry run WOW!! got really shocked that...night.. o well.. i had the video in my ipod so I was able to play it..."See for yourself..."

*the write-up claims that someone MADE the video for bukas palad for a dry run? eh mali pa nga yung story behind it. so how can it be an effective promo tool if someone else made a story of an event that happened closed doors with us? when it was not what really happened? to claim a video that "was made" when it wasn't exactly hers? yun ang understanding ng makakabasa na kahit sino. it was another bp member who alerted us about this "claim", and i being the owner of it, really needed to tell you what i think.

it is an issue for me because that was my personal memory of my first day in BP and i'm not sure if you understand how big a deal that was. all the more that someone else grabbed it and placed a story in it and set it up for the whole world to see. it may not be worth anything to you, but there is a line between respecting how other things matter to people and NOT changing these details for them. we can upload our fave videos, fine. but let us not make a story about it if we don't know what it really is about.

lastly, it is an issue because the group really is promoting for the launch, and that i'm sure all advertising measures are given for that event. hence, interested people will probably search and find this "insignificant" video. and of course, they will think it is yours because it's there on your page. hindi nila malalaman na akin iyun, fine. pero para iba ang mabasa nila na "nangyari" doon, i'm not at all comfortable.

i just feel the need to make this right, because it was the most important day in my history with the group. thank you.



My final messaged for her :
Good evening,

I hope this is the last time I'm going to message you about the video issue because I don't want this to be big issue that it could go out of youtube/internet. To be honest it wouldn't be good to you.I should not waste too much time in answering your absurd messaged,but I have to correct your ridiculous view about the video.

You see, to me, it's simple:

How come that my friend got that video ? Why that video was still there in her cellphone? You said that you're sure that you didn't forward it to anyone, so it could be at that moment there was another phone captured that event also.

The original running time of the video was 57 seconds, since my laptop got an video editing tools, she'd edit it and turned out into 13 - 14 seconds. This would never be an ending argument. But I won't do any drastic measures that can create hostility w/you.

Actually I'm glad when you said : "you do not aim to harm me in anyway. you just thought you had a say and hope to clear things lang by communicating :)".Since I am also teaching here in Loyola Schools is so easy for me to tracked down who are the people you're associating with? Then I found out a very interesting results now upon asking my blockmates, colleagues in department and my spiritual mentor that you're connected with 2 people that I loathed too much.I known that's going off topic, but at the same time I'm thinking if they had something to do with this.

I refused to say the identity of that person uploaded the video her in my youtube, because like I said I don't want this to be a big issue and there could be a consequences (not for me that's for sure) to you and also to my friend (the one whose upload the video)and of course kadamay pa ung 2 people(psych grad. & bs mis grad.) that associated w/you.

Currently, I'm working for the company that we put value honesty because that's our bread and butter. My company belief in anything start w/ a foundation of truth. Nobody believes anything they know to be false. From this truth, we create big brand idea.

You don't need to be part of Ignatian Christian Community whether you're from Jescom,JMM, or any organizations affiliated w/the Loyola Schools to practice honesty.And it is also not nice to accused someone of stealing of a video shot which the mere fact it was only a forwarded mms.

Maan, I'm not a neophyte in the internet world and I do understand "plagiarism". I know that you felt that someone plagiarized your video. Or at least , someone posted it to youtube w/out attributing the video to you. But like I said in my previous message to you. Plagiarism is out here, because that video was not steal. If the first messaged you sent to me was " maayos" lang or probably you could ask where did I get the video? Am pretty sure that I already revealed the identity of that person (that also active member of a choir under by JMM/ADMU), kaso you made a banat hindi kagandahan that's why I won't say anything about her.

Of course you're free to do whatever you like , the important things is that you have no right to demand that I agree with your pleasures about that video.

One thing am not sure if you're the real owner of the video were discussing here?

But don't worry I will edit the description of that video that's all I could do but not to removed,because if I delete it means that you're right and I'm wrong.


Anyway God Bless !!!




I like you tube, not just because it is affiliated with Google company, I enjoyed it a lot because anyone with a video camera ( and that includes many cell phones) can take videos and post them online for anyone to view. Videos of the family, friends and interesting happenings. I didn't expect to get a malicious / direct messaged to someone belonged to a high-profile group of JMM Talents. I'm so embarrassed for the way she behaved and so sorry for her because Fr. Ben, Fr. Nemy and some people from our school know what she has done to me. And even them couldn't believe it. She has all the "guts " to messaged and blackmailed me during office hours, of course they would take actions on this am pretty sure about that.

In our country so easy to trades gossip like gold bars, the bad thing she has done, revealed at the wrong time that may cause serious damage on her part ( professionally) better believe me on that. With the advent of the Internet it become easier to cause digital scandal and she has done that to me.

I will never do anything to dishonor myself; in internet & in real world. Everything is temporarily save for the name. Reputation proceeds and precede people. So when this petty issue ( that can also turned big if I'm not going to informed people from our school) surface in lieu of my being friends with some people from our school and w/ the alumni of Days with the Lord (DWTL) , I keep mum about it especially when there's no lesson to be learned by others.


I don't see the sense in making mountains out of the hills - which is what usually happens when people involved on something stupid like this. I can't please everybody, let alone go around convincing them of the kind person you are. It's just a waste of energy. Yes, I've learned to choose my battles.

Martha and Mary



In the gospel last Sunday, was about Martha and Mary. St Martha immediately evokes the image of a very busy person.Nonetheless, she is shown to us as very hospitable and solicitous of the physical welfare of Christ. John Diamond, M.D. (1985, LIFE ENERGY) would most likely describe her as " high-thymus person", i.e., someone who devotes her energies for the well-being of the other, someone who has the will to live and be live giving. However , "bussy-ness" can wear us out and defocus us from what is truly essential. Our love for other can wear thin as our physical energies wane. Negatives feelings can rule our minds that even the presence of Christ and what he bring us we may miss.

Activity needs to spring from a heart full of love, and not simply from the need to be active, or make an impression, or from some unconscious motive.Christ know us so well that he invites us today to know him first before anything else. Good night.


I'm finally done with harry potter 7



I won't be making a book review. I prefer to discuss my thoughts and opinions in person with fellow Harry Potter fans. I just strongly suggest that if you have read about Harry Potter's life from books 1 to 6, read this book for closure at least. Make sure to read the 6th book before you read the 7th one. We've grown up and matured with J.K. Rowling's characters. She made the kids believe in magic and the kids-at-heart believe that there is still magic in this world. I cried when I was reading it and I cried even after reading it. It was sad because I can't believe the series already ended.

July's nearly ended. Time flies fast especially when you're having fun. It has been a wonderful geeky month for me .

How Old are you?












Age is the quality of mind

If you have left your dreams behind,
If hope is cold.
If you no longer look ahead,
If your ambition fires are dead~
Then you are old.

But if in life you keep the jest,

If love you hold;
No matter how years go by'
No matter how the birthdays fly~
You are not old

I love Hindi Kita Malilimutan song!

Here is the video from the Open Palm c/o Erwin Arandia.



Ever since I started singing with my smdp, music chorale,& w/ other groups Open Palm songs were always part of it. :) I just had to comment here! Wowwww - Open Palm - Holy Jesuits! ;) I love their songs, especially Hindi Kita Malilimutan!!! Buti kamo Atenista pala sila girlalulalulalu , and they got a lot of holy friends! Galing!!! Well, I'm really sure that the Chinese Priest, Fr. Ben, Roma or some blockmates will give me a copy of CD Hindi Kita Malilimutan ,just liked the God of Silence CD!:):


I too feel weary of discussing their choir with my current school. I know I promised myself I'll try to be more substantial; however the urgency to be light and bubbly and jologs again has escalated that I need to share it kahit dito lang. (Ok, that probably came out condescendingly funny but whatebs!)


Sometimes, things need to be jologs. But I'm happy; happy that I could sing again "Hindi Kita Malilimutan", next week at Diliman Campus. I must admit na hindi ko masyado gusto 'yung kanta iyon, dahil mga 7 beses lang naman pinakanta ito sa amin ( in my high school-based choir) , na putol-putol pa dahil sa kakaiyak sa patay/libing.


Makatarungan ba 'yon?! na ipakanta sa libing yun ,bata pa talaga ako 'nun. Eh dati walang ako kamalay-malay sa history kung paano nabuo kanta iyon.Tapos mag-expect ng malalim at makabuluhang pagkanta nun sa libing! Makatarungan ba naman pinakanta yun sa high school students! I never did get to sing it again. So that's why am very glad for the first time, next week we're going to sing it again on a nice occasions.

I was deeply touched by the history of the song (kaya nga may bukas palad group now). Bukas Palad songs serve an ideal and set a good example among many as there are lots of angelic voices singing your prayers to God!. Maybe right now I feel like am in limbo, but think of it as more of an astrological waiting room rather than a grey area. I'm actually preparing to do something rather daring or out-of-character. Perhaps planning to end an old friendship or relationship that's too limiting, or ready to renew an alliance that has some life in it yet. The stars encourage (and reward) bravery, so get ready, get set ... and go! All i could say for sure " Hindi ko talaga Malilimutan" iyon. Embrace change today -- new opportunities will create exciting travel opportunities.



Just want to share this with you =)


Actually this is not recent (I got it before, ages ago) but I just received it again, and it's still good advice. =)

Enjoy!





Words of wisdom

Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this!

To anyone with kids of any age, here's some advice. Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a high school about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good,

politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try

delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

If you agree, pass it on.

And if you can read this, thank a teacher.

What I did last January



Last January, my cousin and I took up scuba diving. Our first lesson was in a deep swimming pool. We had to go under water practice breathing w/the help of oxygen tanks. At first, it was very hard learning to scuba-dive; but later on, I got used to it.

When it was time for us to go scuba-diving in the sea, I was very nervous because there might be sharks and I wouldn't know what to do. But when I went under the sea, my fear disappeared. I started to like it because of all the beautiful corals and fishes I saw there.

When it was time to leave, I brought some corals home with me to give my family. Scuba-diving was a wonderful experience, and I would probably do it again next year.

TAYO-TAYO RIN






I just so fell in love with this song, especially today.



TAYO-TAYO RIN

Composed by: Rico B.
Performed By: Various Artists (Rico Blanco, Lea Salonga, Freddie Aguilar, Sharon Cuneta, Gary V, etc)


SINO PANG MAGDADAMAYAN KUNDI TAYO-TAYO RIN
KUNG MAY PAGKAKATAONG TUMULONG
HUWAG PALAMPASIN

SIMULAN NA ANG MAGTANIM
NG MABUTING GAWAIN
DAHIL SINO PANG AANI
KUNDI TAYO-TAYO RIN

KUNG DUMARAING KA
MASDAN MO ANG MUSMOS
GUSTO SANANG MAG-ARAL
NGUNIT NANLILIMOS

KUNG NAGIGIPIT KA
MASDAN MO ANG DALAGA
DIMAABOT ANG PANGARAP
DAHIL BABAE SIYA

CHORUS:
BAWAT TAYO'Y MAY PROBLEMA
NGUNIT BAWAT TAO'Y MAY LAKAS
MAGSIKAP KA, MAGSAMA-SAMA
LAHAT NG IYA'Y MAY LUNAS

KUNG NALULUNGKOT KA
MASDAN ANG ISANG INA
DI MABIGYANG BUHAY
ANG SANGGOL NYANG DALA

KUNG NANGUNGULILA
MASDAN ANG MAY SAKIT
HANGAD NYA AY UNAWA
NGUNIT WALANG LUMALAPIT

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
HALIKA, KUMILOS NA
SABAY TAYO
TARA MAY ORAS PA
TULUNGAN TAYO




This song is a showcase of personalities and celebrities gave their time to assist/help United Nations Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) to initiate good works for the less fortunate.

Hmmm...let's see if i could get some much needed shut eye tonight!


According to the dictionary omen is a thing or happening supposed to foretell a future event, either good or evil; augury portent indication.For the past few weeks I've been sensing something is about to happen especially with the development of so many events or maybe it's just my perception and reaction to things that are changing. Anyway basta. Parang may nagbabadyang, nagpapaliwanag, nagpapahiwatig (Ano kaya?) Ummm...
