Spread the word… please

This story seems to be spreading like wildfire from my neck of the woods (i.e. the groups I know) I thought I’d do my part and aid the “dissemination.”

Please, please repost the url below on your respective blogs. Spread the word.

All things considered, I wouldn’t be surprised that the family involved still wouldn’t be able to touch those politicians, 1 Honestly, at this point, given how the aggressors handled situation, I’m actually worried about the safety of the victims. but hopefully the public can make a big enough stink out of it to attract the media. Realistically speaking, I’m not even sure if it would change anything, but at the very least, it would hopefully make people aware about how evil those people can be.

Insecurities and frustrations

I’m in Baguio right now, and as usual I opted to stay in while the rest of the people go on their excursion 1 What can I say, I’m a homebody

Since I don’t have anything better to post, I thought I’d share an experience which I never got to mention.

A few weeks ago, in between numerous BP events, I was invited (thanks to Juan) to do a demo take for some ad campaign to be launched sometime next year. Obviously, I’m not at liberty to disclose any details, but I just thought I’d share the unique experience.

It all started with an IM… Read More

The hardest part about being right

I remember one really old martial arts movie I saw, 1 “Best of the Best” I think it was, and I think Eric Roberts’ character was the one that said it where one of the protagonists had said the lines below; begging to be taken back into the team.

“It’s the only thing I know… [the only thing] that I’m good at.

This is true for everyone in the planet: We all make mistakes, and all are stupid in our own little (or big) ways. Yet at the same time, we have worth, and there are things that we may just “know” better than anyone else.

Based on experience, I have found out that, at least for me, the most important “lessons” one could teach are the same ones that we desperately wish people would really listen to – and by some sick joke of God, are the very things people refuse to listen to. Read More

Been a busy weeked for the group

Here are some gallery sets from a wedding in Santuario de San Jose. Which was a riot, since the wedding right after our underground group was another underground contingent of the older [non-active] members. Nagka-bukuhan! hahahaha!

Then there’s another memorable one at Santurario de San Antonio; where we started putting our “shy” members into “solo mode.” 1 Actually baka si Vino lang… si Gino naman gusto niya talaga; you’re not fooling anyone with your “modest” approach dude. But I still love you. I always believed that “forcing” [preferably unwilling] people to step up to the plate and sing is always good for individual confidence (and overall group morale) – what better testing grounds than weddings gigs right?

And how could we forget the unofficial “Grand Alumni Homecoming” mini-concert before the mass during the 7th Simbanggabi at Gesu. A whole bunch of members residing/stationed in different parts of the world came home for the holidays… and we ended up doing an impromptu repertoire to utilize the rare “concert-force” attendance.

Are you happy?

Here’s another one of those “Manual to my life” posts. This entry in particular explains (in part) why I have a generally “positive” disposition – despite having the same (or probably even more difficult) challenges in life just like any other person.

It doesn’t have anything to do with being “happy” or “positive” – but the simple fact that I refuse to be “negative.” What do I mean when I say that? Read on…

I don’t like people who complain. Well that’s not really true; I embrace everyone’s mystery 🙂

But if you want to test my patience, then the quickest way to get me going is to complain – bonus points if you try to spin it in such a way that you’re kawawa – if you’re lucky enough; I might just decide to step in and beat you with a stick – and I think people will agree that you don’t want to be at the business end of that stick (oh wait, depends what “stick” we’re talking about hehehe).
