Happy Mother's Day to all moms out there.

No knowledge about being a mom, but for me I think as a mom they need to be happy. Not all women are blessed to bear a child and give birth. Moms are really special and blessed because they experience being loved, giving love and loving unconditionally.

It's very hard to love unconditionally, for all I know especially for us human beings, but most moms do. And I know an unconditional love is the love that comes from God, He is the source of all the love in this world. I appreciate that kind of love I experience with my mom that is associated with God's love. As the song goes " love makes the world go round", it does with me!

True I have a mom and an unwed mom that is my sister. I am glad the kind of love they are in. I know they are in different situations yet LOVE is shining brightly within them for their children. That I have seen to other moms too.

I hope all moms can see these wonderful things I have seen. I do thank God for giving good health to moms who are always there to care for their children. And thank God for wonderful children who loves their moms back and stay God-fearing children. Am looking forward to the day that I become a mom soon (Oh no am not pregnant ok and am not getting married yet too still hoping hehehe that's the hint) !

Gifts*Blessings

1. Life

4. Health
5. Career

Still counting on my blessings for another year on earth!!!

Soring for Fun, Aja!

Mid last year at my work place, we became crazy about sports. Sports tournaments were organized such as Basketball, Chess, and Badminton. Its not something new because the previous decade, when am not part of this company yet, they had an annual sportsfest wherein they played Dart, Tabbletennis, and Basketball.

When I was asked, "What's your Sports?", I answered without hesitation, "Badminton". I play other sports too but with my current job schedule, working for a 24X7 technical operations, I can only permit myself to play badminton. Not much torture with my mind and body but still can make me sweat just like what my gym session did before.

As a beginner I tried to seek help from a professional player. My colleague happened to be the bestfriend of a professional badminton player. They were classmates way back in their college years, and this woman played badminton during intramurals before and of course won several championship awards too. I considered her professional in badminton, since she's now a regional badminton player connected in a city government office.

Our first badminton practice started at Shuttle Square. It was tiring at first when all I did was to run and pick up the shuttlecock. I thought its a no sweat but at the end of the day I can't move my sore body, but its actually soring for fun!

Funny to know that last year I joined the singles and doubles tournament for women. I was really sorry for my opponents, who were wanting to sweat with our game. They beat me in a no sweat 2 set games. I'm also sorry for my partner, who was supposedly playing doubles but was playing for singles, everytime I am stuck in the ground where I am standing hehehe. I can't quit nor call my self a loser because every time I win or loss a game and play the third set for decision, I am happier!

As a player I know I still need more practice to improve. I was lucky to find a video all about badminton, it helped alot. Physically and mentally I did some practice. This year I am looking forward to more winnings with mixed doubles.

Aja!!!

1 Corinthians 13:1-13

1 If I could speak in any language in heaven or on earth but didn’t love others, I would only be making meaningless noise like a loud gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I knew all the mysteries of the future and knew everything about everything, but didn’t love others, what good would I be? And if I had the gift of faith so that I could speak to a mountain and make it move, without love I would be no good to anybody. 3If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would be of no value whatsoever.

4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. 6It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

8Love will last forever, but prophecy and speaking in unknown languages and special knowledge will all disappear. 9Now we know only a little, and even the gift of prophecy reveals little! 10 But when the end comes, these special gifts will all disappear.

11It’s like this: When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child does. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. 12 Now we see things imperfectly as in a poor mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God knows me now.

13 There are three things that will endure—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.

What Do You Want for Valentines?

Love is in the air. Close Up Lovapalooza '06 last Saturday night Feb 11: in four simultaneous romance parties at Roxas Boulevard Baywalk in Manila, Bayanihan Park Mac Arthur Highway in Angeles, FGU Business Park Ayala in Cebu, and Matina Town Square in Davao City; was successfully aired live by ABS-CBN. I was still awake when it happened and of course with an event like that, I realized its VALENTINES.

I was just kidding, but still hoping hehehe when I said, "A boyfriend with flowers and chocolates or a date", to a friend who asked me what I wanted for valentines. But seriously I told her a t-shirt for my badminton sessions will be fine. My friend was inquired by someone who was obliged to give me a gift for valentines.

Witnessed lovapalooza on TV, still awake by midnight: all for LOVE. I was lying in the hospital watching my mother (she's under medication, critically ill) . Valentines is not just for lover but for families too. I was glad to see married (for more than 20 yrs) couples on stage, they inspired a lot of the filipinoes and televiewers around the globe.

I just want to thank Close-up for the activity, it made me realized I was awake because of love and for love. What I want for valentines day is to be able to thank God for LOVE, because God is of love!
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY to us ALL!

Mahal kita pero di mo lang alam

Hindi mo alam kasi hindi mo naman ako tinitignan

Ayaw mo naman itanong sakin kasi baka nga naman hindi naman ikaw

At hindi ko rin naman sayo sasabihin kasi ayoko pa sa ngayon na manligaw

Mahal kita pero hindi nga lang halata

Hindi halata kasi wala naman akong ginagawa

Hindi ako kumikibo hindi ako nagsasalita wala

Pero hindi ako torpe

Hindi ko lang talaga masabi sayo ng harapan

Mahal kita pero dehins mo pa rin ramdam

Hindi mo ko titignan di rin kita titgnan

Lagi mo lang akong pakikiramdaman lagi rin kitang pakikiramdaman

At araw araw tayong magdededmahan

Hanggang sa tayo ay magkabistuhan

Pero ngayong malapit nang matapos ang kanta ko

Nais kong ako na rin ang magsabi sayo ng harapan

Kasi alam kong doon din naman ang tuloy nyan

At dalawa din lang naman ang posibleng sagot dyan oo o hindi

Kaya eto na sasabihin ko na para matapos na

Sasabihin ko na para wala nang problema

They guested at GAME KA NA BA (also in other shows of ABS-CBN like MUB-Magandang Umaga Bayan), no wonder Kris Aquino loved them and their song which was full of humor!!!

Attention MPSC Alumni

"God's Love"

Hello world!

I would like to share this page to all of you.

Its all about God's love.

I do hope this will inspire us in so many ways, GOD bless us always!

Tragic Wowow1-Ultra

I have enjoyed watching TV, specially during noontime. Recently top rated Wowowee noon time show is an all-time favorite. It's not because of the show but because of the stories you get out from the avid viewers who are participants in their games as part of the program.

You'll go crazy watching Wowowee. Why? Because after laughing, you will cry and vice versa. If you happen to watch it alone you can't help but laugh aloud, and then later in the show cry too. Stories about real people would touch your heart and reason why you laugh and cry!

The first year anniversary (Feb. 4, 2006) happen to be an ULTRA-TRAGEDY. Not for the network ABS-CBN but for us Filipinoes. We all know people were overwhelmed by the prices they can get from watching the show. Out of the economic crisis experience in our country, people tend to seek someone who can give them lighter weight of what burdens them, POVERTY!

This tragedy give us a lot of lessons to learn, and maybe we can't even understand some. Only GOD knows why this had to happen.

It hurts to see 74 dead bodies from the venue to be for the Wowowee 1st year anniversary. Let's all pray for souls of our departed kababayans, for the network ABS-CBN, for the government and President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, and specially to our countrymen and country PHILIPPINES!

Kung Hei Fat Choy - Happy Chinese New Year

Outlook for 2006

Rat: 1912, 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996
A very busy year for the rat, both socially and professionally. There will be lots of activities involving unexpected opportunities. Challenges will serve to form a solid foundation for the greater good. Do not take your loved ones for granted. Say cheese!

Ox: 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997
Your reliability, industry and common sense will work wonders for you this year. Complications will not prosper and your path will be clear of obstacles and opposition. Your knowledge will expand and leading you to your true place. Expect someone special to enter your life. You have the patience of the ox and this year, it will pay off.

Tiger: 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998
This year will bring you good fortune. You will have to toe the line for a while, but it will help accomplish goals easily. Expect influential people to assist you. Unattached tigers will find partners this year. Tiger, tiger, burning bright...

Rabbit: 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999
A smooth year for the rabbit. You will straighten out past problems, gain the recognition you relish and experience more gains. Be prepared to make decisions quickly. Time is of the essence. Hop happily, rabbit.

Dragon: 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000
It is time for the dragon to listen, consult and investigate. Lay down a firm foundation of your heart’s desires. Definitely not a good period for confrontation and argumentation. Use your dragon magic to multiply your goods exceedingly.

Snake: 1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001
Opportunities are knocking at your door. Now is an excellent time to use your charm and launch new ideas. Don’t forget to make room for the opinions of loved ones. Skeptical snake, the year of the Dog will bring many significant and dramatic changes in your life.

Horse: 1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002
A financially good year for the horse. It’s also a good time for recuperation and recovery. Rather than going it alone, strive for team work. Sharing the credit brings harmony and goodwill. Romance is in the air. Stop horsing around; go for it!

Sheep (Goat): 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003
It’s okay to be optimistic but the sheep should take care and stay on the conservative side. Most of the year will be satisfying and rewarding. Yes, there will be challenges, but you will easily find ways to handle them. Just don’t take it out on those closest to you. Relax, meditate. The Dog year could shepherd you to your true place in the sun.

Monkey: 1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004
A period for research and discovery and really knowing what’s going on around you. It’s time to do your homework and lay the groundwork for an expanded and more evolved you. This is the year when you could get serious with a relationship (someone new or someone you already know). No more monkey business, please!

Rooster: 1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005
Be prepared for a lot of entertaining and travel. The rooster continues to prosper and recover lost ground. Your plans are easily realized. Your personal life could be clouded by some secret unhappiness or brooding. This must be addressed and not swept under the rug, so to speak. It’s time to pay attention to those who have been around a long time. Let all your crowing be the start of a new dawn!

Dog: 1910, 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006
Now is the time to achieve what you have long wanted to do. This is your year! Decisions will have to be made and they have to be made quickly. Don’t procrastinate. If you stay too long on the diving board, you may just change your mind and not take the plunge. Take a deep breath and dive. A good year for a dog to fall in love, make a serious commitment, or simply change partners. Doggone it!

Pig: 1911, 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995
This is the time for the pig to lay a strong foundation by gathering knowledge and practicing perseverance. Up to now, your impatience has gotten you nowhere with your loved ones and associates. Not to mention with yourself. Don’t be a pigheaded bore. Go out and enjoy yourself!

Kung Hei Fat Choy - Happy Chinese New Year!!!

For Pacquiao Fanatics!

Manny Pacquiao, a 27 years old, is now the 3 time champion of the world. Boxing was one famous sports in our country, also because alot of Filipino boxers won several medals of recognitions and titles worldwide. It made Filipinoes famous, and our country Philippines as well.

Last January 22, 2006 it seemed like the world had stopped, everyone were infront of the television watching Pacquiao's fight. It was as if the fight of Filipinoes versus the World. It is also about letting the world know that we are proud Filipino and will fight a good fight for our country's pride.

Morales said, "I will not fight for my country, I will fight for myself", in contrast to Manny's song "Para sa 'yo ang laban na to, para sa 'yo bayan ko". You see the difference between these two boxers: one fighting for himself, and one for his country?

I would say Manny Pacquiao was a hero, and he deserved our support. He made us Filipinoes happy, united and proud.

Take it from a friend who worked abroad, called up her dad and asked " Pa kumusta man mo dha (how are you)", his dad answered "Nia malipayon kay nidaug man si Pacquiao (here happy because Pacquiao won)". This man, just like most of us, does not know Manny personally, but in his heart as Pinoy had this chance to be proud and happy.

Mabuhay si Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao!
