Voglio dirti una cosa Mark, una cosa che ancora non sai. Noi K-Paxiani abbiamo vissuto abbastanza da averlo già scoperto. L’universo si espanderà, poi tornerà a collassare su se stesso e poi si espanderà di nuovo, ripetendo questo processo all’infinito. Ciò che non sai è che, quando l’universo si espanderà di nuovo, tutto quanto sarà come adesso. Qualunque errore commetterai in questa vita, lo…

Va’ serenamente in mezzo al rumore e alla fretta e ricorda quanta pace ci può essere nel silenzio. Finché è possibile, senza doverti arrendere, conserva i buoni rapporti con tutti. Di’ la tua verità con calma e chiarezza, e ascolta gli altri, anche il noioso e l’ignorante: anch’essi hanno una loro storia da raccontare. Evita le persone prepotenti e aggressive: esse sono un tormento per lo…

La forza (di ricominciare da zero)
Per quello che vale, non è mai troppo tardi, o nel mio caso troppo presto, per essere quello che vuoi essere. Non c’è limite di tempo, comincia quando vuoi, puoi cambiare o rimanere come sei, non esiste una regola in questo. Possiamo vivere ogni cosa al meglio o al peggio, spero che tu viva tutto al meglio, spero che tu possa vedere cose sorprendenti, spero che tu possa avere emozioni sempre…

Prime parole
In te sono stato albume, uovo, pesce, le ere sconfinate della terra ho attraversato nella tua placenta, fuori di te sono contato a giorni. In te sono passato da cellula a scheletro un milione di volte mi sono ingrandito, fuori di te l’accrescimento è stato immensamente meno. Sono sgusciato dalla tua pienezza senza lasciarti vuota perché il vuoto l’ho portato con me. Sono venuto nudo, mi hai coperto così ho imparato nudità e pudore il latte e la sua assenza. Mi hai messo in bocca tutte le parole a cucchiaini, tranne una: mamma. Quella l’inventa il figlio sbattendo le due labbra quella l’insegna il figlio. Erri De Luca - “Il contrario di uno”
My list of "50-things-to-do-this-summer". Looking forward to...
How are you guys doing? I've been dying to write about what I've been up to these past few weeks. I can't believe that my "bukas na lang ako magsusulat" has been running for quite some time now, say almost a month! Ha! As you can see, this entry is filed under "Daily Thanks". I know I've been doing a bad job at keeping up with my "Daily Thanks" entries but hey, at least I try my best not to miss a single chance to say thanks to whoever helped me with my daily endeavors and hardships. Friends, family and co-workers, you know who you are, from the bottom of my heart, maraming salamat! No one can survive this ordeal (called LIFE!) alone. Of course, I wanna send big big thanks and hugs to the one and only master of life, Jah. You're the best! I'm not gonna enumerate all the tasks I've done lately. Past is past. Matotoxic lang ako lalo if iisipin ko pa ung mga yun. I'm more excited to enumerate the things that I look forward to this summer vacay. Shall I start with the list na? Oh yeah!
Catch up with all the Naruto and...
...Bleach manga chapters I missed. (I can't even remember where I stopped, deim!)
Relive one of my fave anime series, RAVE, by reading the manga version.
Rearrange and redecorate my apartment.
Eat, sleep, and live inside the condo unit my sister bought. No one has been living in there since she bought it last year. She told me to stay there so I don't have to pay for rent but I'm still weighing the pros and cons. It is kinda far from where I work.
Start new action series and sitcoms. I bought a lot of DVDs two weeks ago and I haven't started watching any of them. I copied files and folders of series from friends too. I've got Greek and...
...Burn Notice. I am planning to buy...
...Bones...
...Dexter...
...Parks and Recreation...
...Pushing Daisies...
...and some HBO Original Series (still deciding).
Of course, while I try to flood my sofa with a new set of DVDs, I'm still gonna continue watching "the regulars" like HIMYM...
...TBBT...
...Modern Family...
...30 Rock...
...Lie to Me...
...Chuck (I'm about to remove this from my regulars)...
...and Glee (Yes, I watch Glee. Any problem with that? *Sue Sylvester tone and look!!!* )
Install the latest upcoming version of Ubuntu called Natty Narwhal. I can't believe I have to say goodbye to Maverick Meerkat (Ubuntu 10.10) in two weeks or less.
Fix my internet connection, maybe upgrade to DSL instead of using the sometimes unreliable broadband.
Arrange my PS3 games collection (this is quite easy coz I have very few games! hehehe)
Ready my 4-year old blogspot account so I can finally open it to publiko.
Learn how to make baba ganoush and
...red pepper hummus as instructed by Chef Emily Sanders. Hehehe. :)
Abuse my Kindle and read highly recommended books like...
...Lupin...
...Little Women...
...Freakonomics...
...Super Freakonomics...
...The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo...
...The Tipping Point...
...What the Dog Saw...
...Outliers...
...Coraline...
...Devil's Dictionary and many more. Please don't judge me kung sobrang nalulumaan ka na sa mga babasahin ko. READ: Wala talaga akong oras magbasa dati!
Shop for a new and cute rash guard in preparation for...
...our Bicol trip (May).
CamSur Water Sports Complex, here we come!
Pick-up my guitar and use it as a musical instrument, not as a display nor a brooding place for dead air and spiders.
Visit my hometown and...
...swim...
...sleep in my old pink room...
...visit the provincial jail...
...visit Mt. Tabor (where the Mangyan students are)...
...and of course, my most favorite of all, drive around the city. A roadtrip with my bros and cousins is a must!
Meet up with my bestfriend Dimple who's gonna be in town for a couple of weeks. I wanna go with her to Abu Dhabi! hahaha. Pwede ba yun?
Meet up with my confidante, one of the greatest guys I've ever known in my entire life, Leonard.
Work part-time in a clinic and...
...treat patients! Once again, my skills will be put to test. It's been a while since I last handled a patient (summer 2010) and I must say that I really miss it! I hope I didn't get that rusty after a year of being in hiatus.
Whew! Medyo marami-rami ata ung gusto kong mangyari ngayong summer noh. You think kasya lahat ng ito within 60 days of summer break? I hope I can keep up. This is the first of all summer breaks since I graduated from college na wala akong major major tasks (walang board exam and walang cognate subject, summer class sa grad school). As you can see, none of the things listed above talk about my work as an academician. But it doesn't mean that I'll be bumming around lang from April til end of May. We still have a lot of things to do in preparation for the next semester and lahat yan (training, workshops) ay naka-schedule na. Akala nyo ba todo pahinga lang ang mga guro pag bakasyon ang mga estudyante. HINDI! Dahil kami naman ang nag-aaral pag bakasyon. Hehe. How about you friends and countrymen, what are you planning to do this summer break?
Events I forgot to document...
Earlier, while I was walking around Burnham park and taking pictures of almost everything under the sun, I noticed that I am running low in memory (not me, my SD card, pero pwede na rin ako!). As soon as we got back to Mam Emily's house, I just had dinner with them and hurried to my room to free up some space in the SD card. I deleted everything that has already been upped in my blog. Then I found lots of pictures of events na I forgot to document. Must be due to lack of time (definitely!) and forgetfulness. 01.29.11 -- UST @ night Eu asked me to take pics of him and Anne inside UST. Complete album is here. Meanwhile, here are two of my fave pics:
These photos were taken past 7 in the evening but it looks like the sun is about to rise pa lang, or set. 02.05.2011 -- Blessing of Sanders' warehouse + celebration of Nixon & Mam Emily's birthday Click here to view full album.
Nixon, about to blow his cake's candles
Pabitin :D classic!
(L-R): My bestfriend Zen, Mam Emily, and my friend (with the highest IQ, hahaha!) Eilu
I will make a separate post for the Baccalaureate Mass and Quadricentennial Graduation. Right now, I'm just happy that I was able to free up 236.8 mb of memory from my 4gb SD card (wth! andami ko pa kelangan tanggalin!).
03.25.11 Baccalaureate Mass, my 2nd round!
I've been attending UST's annual Baccalaureate Mass ever since I started teaching and that means, I only missed one Bac Mass and that was the batch after mine. I graduated year 2007 and that was my first round of Bac Mass.
Group 10 and our advisor, Sir Donald! AJA!
My college barkada, (L-R): Steph, Raiza, Spence, Kas, moi
Raiza was also part of this year's Bac Mass, this time as a Medicine graduate. Unfortunately, I didn't get to take a picture with her. :(
Bac Mass 2011
Buo ang pwersa ng mga prayle :p
I was seated next to my co-faculty members. Mam Steph and Mam Marian finished Master's in Clinical Psychology and Sir D2 finished MSPT (like me).
Rev. Rector Fr. Rolando dela Rosa, OP, giving his speech to the candidates for graduation.
Thanks to my UST graduate school professors for the worthy experience, invaluable support and knowledge you've imparted on me. :)
UST-GS had a very simple "gimmick". Light stuff on our fingers. Hehe.
Thanks Mam Che for the pinning. :)
UST at night...
...that illumine our path...
Pyromusical started just as I was about to take this pic. Shocked!
Can I just say: "nasunog lang naman ung wind cover ng candle ko (muntik na ang hair ko) as I was NOT paying attention to the candle I'm holding coz I was so amazed at how magnificent this fireworks display (este pyromusical) was!"
fireflies...
