lanham

Starting bukas, ill be reporting na to another branch, and ill be serving the area of Annapolis, Laurel and Anne Arundel. Kanina, while I was driving, i cant help but be sad, because I will really miss the people na nakatrabaho ko. Its been a pleasure working with them talaga. I have learned a lot for the one year na I stayed with them. As I turn another page in my life, Im ready again to face a new chalenge, and to be the best that I can become.

MJ

I know its been several days na when one of the greatest music icon has passed away. MJ would probably become a music legend forever. I'm just sad na he is gone already. And somehow, because of the controversies that he experienced, segments of our society have condemned him to oblivion long before his demise. And nakakahinayang, because he could have given us more of his music and talent. My point is, kung ano man ang mga nagawa nya in his private life, we should have been able to separate that from his other persona. For me, he is the greatest artist of his time, and his music will forever trailblaze. I remember, ang una kong napanood noon na music video nya sa mtv ay ang thriller. He has broken a lot of barriers, and he has touched a lot of people because of his music, including mine.

Go the Distance - Michael Bolton

on the move!!

Well, im set to move out of phri baltimore and move to another branch, at phri lanham by start of July. And our lease in our apartment will end by august naman, so sayang ang natitirang buwan, pero ok lang. And its gonna be another adventure for me again. Syempre ma-mimiss ko ang mga co-workers ko. Although may mga attitude problems ang iba, kasama na ako, hehehe!!! ganun talaga pag mixed ang grupo. Its gonna be another year of working again with the same company, pero a different branch, then im out of here, pero next year pa naman. I have a lot of plans pa kasi. And I want to try different clinical settings sa aking practice. And im planning to go back to school again. Another thing is, im also planning to go home soon, syempre for vacation lang. I can't wait for that day to come. Im on my third year na here sa Amerika, and somehow, na imbibe ko na ang fast paced life dito. I have to do my laundy, pag paplantsa ng mga damit, grocery, do errands, mag linis at magkuskus ng inidoro, mag hugas ng pinggan and many more na hindi ko na mabilang. Namiss ko tuloy kasambahay namin, hehehe!!! Anyway, its a good life, so i can't complain. Kaya dito, wala kang oras malungkot, dahil ang daming mga gawain sa araw araw. Pero i miss 'Pinas talaga. Di ako masyado nationalistic, pero nung nandito na ako, i learned to appreciate my roots. Kaya im proud to be Pinoy! Anyway, im always on the move, kahit saan ako isalpak, kakayanin ko. We make things work, and adapt the best way we can. So whatever comes my way, im gonna be always on the move!

political view..

Here are my views on the political front sa ating bansa. Wala na ba tayong kadala dala kay erap. I mean, he is one of the worst president who ever became a head of state. Have we forgotten about the billions of pesos that he had stolen from our country? Ang tamad tamad pang magtrabaho at wala pang management skills. He keeps telling us he is for the poor, pero mayaman naman sya. And he wants to be President again. Im not a fan of Gloria din, but she is really doing a good job naman, kasi masipag sya, and she makes good decisions for the country. Wag nyo lang isali yung karakot nyang asawa, na dapat nakakulong na rin because of corruption. The next president should be someone na will take good care of the country. Basta marunong magpalakad ng programa at hindi kurakot. Yung makatao, may takot sa diyos, at may pagmamahal sa bansa. It could be anybody, except Erap and Gloria.

music defines my life.....

Mahilig ako sa musika. Bata pa lang ako, alam ko, parte na ng buhay ko ang musika, at pagkanta. I can actually say na ako ay 80s at 90s baby, hehehe!!! Siguro, dahil kapanahunan ko yun. Una kong nasilayan ang MTV nung elementary pa lang ako. Mahilig kasi ang tatay ko na mag rent ng betamax tape, tapos papanuorin namin. Nandyan din ang radio at mga cassette tapes. Lahat yata ng puedeng kantahin nung panahon na yun, kinakanta ko, at namememorize ko pa ang lyrics. Ehh sa school, hirap akong magsa-ulo ng mga lessons, pero pag musika na ang pinag usapan, ang dali ng memory recall ko. Di naman kagandahan ang boses ko. Masasabi ko na pasado naman sya kapag pinakinggan mo. Ika nga nila, i can carry a tune. When im happy, music reflects my mood. When im sad, music makes me cry naman. And when im angry, music soothes my nerves. Hilig ko nung bata pa ako ang mga kanta ni madonna, sharon cuneta at iba pa. Parati kong kinakanta ang like a virgin, pero ngayon skin pores na lang ang virgin sa akin, at bituing walang ningning, feeling ko, ako si sharon cuneta sa bukas luluhod ang mga tala. Hilig ko rin nuon ang new kids on the block. Nung lumabas ang guns and roses and metallica, naging rakista naman ako. Hindi ko makakalimutan ang eraserheads. Hindi pa sila sikat nuon, pinapakinggan ko na ang kanilang musika. Halos lahat na yata ng kanta nila nasaulo ko na, kaya nung sumikat sila, kakatuwa dahil alam kong kantahin ang lyrics ng musika nila. Ang all time fave artist ko syempre, walang iba kundi si regine velasquez. Mahilig kasi ako dun sa bumibirit pag kumakanta. Ilang concerts na ang aking napanood para makita lang sya at ilang album na ang aking binili para lang paulit ulit na pakinggan ang tinig nya. Ang parati ko namang kinakanta includes "never ever say goodbye", "hang on", at "my love will see you through". Idagdag mo na rin ang "lead me lord". Tatak ko na yata ang mga kantang yun, kasi sa bawat okasyon sa buhay ko, yun ang parati kong kinakanta sa videoke. Kaya music defines who I am today. Its part of my life, and and my whole being. In every stage of my life, may kaakibat na musika. Puedeng hindi ko na ikwento ang buhay ko, and music will be the one na magkikwento nito. Ganun ang musika sa buhay ko. Madami pang bagong musika akong pakikinggan at magiging parte ng buhay ko, Kaya kapag nagkita tayo, tanungin mo na lang ako kung ano pinakikinggan ko at that time, dahil sigurado, yun ang kwento ng buhay ko.
