Ondoy

What a shocking day. I never thought storm Ondoy will have this kind of effect. Technically, it's not even a typhoon! It was chaotic and traumatizing. I thank God we live in area here in Cavite that is safe from floods, landslides etc. But I was worried earlier because my parents were on the road, thank God they were near the area of my aunt's house and they stayed there during the harsh part of the storm. They are now home after several hours of traffic.
The news says it all: people trapped in schools,hospitals, malls, roof tops, trees. 6-12 ft deep floods.
Terrible.
I pray for the safety of everyone. As I type this the rains have stopped. I hope the sun shines tomorrow.

How Could You Be so Heartless? (or at least Insensitive)


I know by now much has been said with the Kanye West outburst at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards but I will speak my mind anyway. First of all, yes I like Taylor Swift, her songs aren't innovative nor that there's anything special with her voice but she is charming. She has charisma no doubt. She writes her own songs which is age appropriate and not overproduced. And I really find the video of You Belong With Me witty and fun to watch. Yes, Beyonce's Single Ladies is groundbreaking and it will be remembered for years.
BUT
whether Taylor Swift deserved to win the award for Best Female Video is not the issue.
I know Kanye West was trying to make a statement that Single Ladies should have won but he has no right to hijack Taylor's acceptance speech. It was rude and totally uncalled for. What's wrong is that he ,a grown man, ruined what should have been a special moment for 19 year old girl. If he has issues with the results he should have taken it to the right authorities and not throw tantrums on air at the expense of Swift. Kanye apologized on his website but I don't know reading it I did not feel the sincerity at all (typing in all caps?!).
A friend mentioned that one more bad thing that incident could implicate to is another issue on racism. For sure most of Taylor's country fans on the southern part of United States are furious with Kanye West and what's worse is that they could transfer the hate to all African Americans. You might think I'm overreacting but this actually possible as one rotten tomato could spoil a basket of tomatoes. Over the years, I've read lots of calls from African Americans for equality and a stop to stereotyping but with actions like what Kanye did ,he is sure not helping what the others strive to fulfill.
To be honest, I do like some of Kanye's songs and I find him talented and truly a standout on his genre but his attitude is overshadowing his talents. If he does not change his conceited attitude there will come a day that no one will take him seriously anymore and he will self destruct.

Spotlight: Hawaii Chair

I stumbled upon this infomercial on YouTube and this got me laughing. In this infomercial, they say that this chair is suitable for work. When I saw the clip, I don't understand why they thought that as a selling point haha. I don't know if it was intentional that they produced this infomercial this way but they sure got the attention of the viewers. (Ellen DeGeneres featured this on her show!) So I bet this chair was a bestseller.

22



Yes, today I turn TWENTY TWO YEARS OLD. Sometimes, the feeling is so surreal that I'm in this stage of my life already. It's a bit scary let me tell you because I feel that whatever I decide to do in my life now will hugely affect my life in the long run. There was even a time that I felt that I'm having an early quarter life crisis already haha. Anyway, I always treated my birthday as an ordinary day. I attended the morning mass (around 5:45 am, I like to attend masses that early, I feel more concentrated and I love it that there are only a few people), I treated my family by buying pancit and cake. I never had birthday parties or bashes. A simple meal with my family is fine by me. I like it that way. But you know what I received a lot of birthday greetings from facebook, twitter, multiply, friendster, Pinoyexchange, ATRL and text messages. Those messages made my day. I especially appreciate the greetings that came from people who I rarely see or talk in person anymore. It's always a great feeling when people remember your birthday. Thank you God for all the blessings I received all year long. If you ask me what is my birthday wish, as always, I wish that my family will be always be away from harm or any threatening disease.

So there, I'm 22. For the 1000th time TIME FLIES. Haha.

One Year Ago...

Last year, I opened up an account on tumblr.com out of curiosity and I did write some blog entries there. I actually posted some really personal stuff there that at that time I did not feel writing here. I write in taglish there unlike here which is mostly English (the reason why I write most of my entries here in English is because when I started this blog I thought that this is a way for me to enhance my writing skills in English). Anyway, today I opened my tumblr account again after 8 months of not writing there. It was great to see my posts there. Although some of which are embarrassing but those blogs showed my raw emotion at that time. One of my blog entries there was when I was finally hired for a job after months of being unemployed after graduating. Here was my blog entry then:

"Nung September 4 nag exam ako sa Maximum Solutions, agency sya. Naghahanap sila ng web content writer. Noong una parang hindi ko feel sa company na yun kasi nga agency pero I tried it out na rin kasi sayang. Tapos alam nyo after the exam interview agad eh feeling ko na laki chance ko makapasok. I felt good, first time ko kaya umabot sa ganitong level hehe. Tapos ayun after the interview with ms. leslie, the HR, inendorse na ako dun sa client nila na pagsusulatan ko. Buti nga sa Makati din, sa may Ayala pero sa may dulo na yata yun ng Ayala hehe. Okay naman yung nag interview sakin na taga fireball corp, mabait sya. Maliit nga lang yung office nila. Pero okay lang yun maganda na rin kasi kunti lang pakikisamahan ko. Ayun ok naman ako sa interview, i was hired na din , finally! 3 months training which is good na din kasi in case na hindi ko magustuhan at least hindi matagal ang contract ko pero sana magustuhan ko dun."

I can't help but feel nostalgic on how I felt so happy that day when my "bumhood" finally ended. But well a lot has happened since then. On 09/04/08, I was hired for my very first job. One year after, I'm on my second month for my third job. Three jobs in one year. This was not how I envisioned my life after graduation but then again this must be the "real world" they were saying when I was still a student. It's hard. I took risks. Because I want to have a career and not just a job. I want to be somewhere where I could maximize my skills. As for my third job, so far I'm doing good. I now feel that I am in the right place. I'm really hoping that is the "jumpstart" I've been looking for.

Still

My maternal grandmother passed away this day two years ago. I still miss you Mama Iyang. I still wish you are here with us. I miss the sumptuous meals you prepare us. I miss seeing you. I miss hearing your voice. How I wish you saw Ate's son, your great grand son. I know for sure you will also be fond of him. It has been two years I know, I've already accepted that you are no longer with us but still I may have move on but I'm still not over losing you . I still get teary eyed whenever I remember the day when Nanay called and informed me that you passed away. I still get teary eyed whenever I see your picture in our altar and your senior citizen I.D that Nanay kept. I miss you Mama. I still do. But I know you are happy up there. I know. I love you mama Iyang.

115 Days to Go

BEFORE CHRISTMAS!

Woah! For the 1000th time how time flies!

Can you believe we are near Christmas already and the last part 2009! September also marks my first year of being employed. I was hired September 4 and started working officially September 9. And well in a span of one year, I already had three jobs. haha...haha?
I hope this year's Christmas season will be more festive than the previous years. But I know with the worldwide economic crisis I should not expect too much. But then why should let that dampen my mood right? So therefore I promise myself I will do all means to feel the Christmas spirit :)
