Bitter Sweet Baked Talaba

The waves were splashing under us, 

we feel like we're flying with the summer breeze.

two people with their hearts connecting,

always together, in love and happy

Hi, folks! Happy Happy Day today. Oh Happy Day!

My mum woke me up a little past 9am because there was a call for me, my dad answered it and thought it was for me, but it turns out it was just for him, he forgot about who the caller was when actually it was his old High School Classmate. WOW. 

I met up with Jesyl at Jaro Cathedral around 10am, I brought along the Rizal book she lent me (and I initiall forgot where I put my Rizal Guide Book by Prof. Legada). We went to Ted's/Dulgie's near St. Joseph School. I ordered Extra Super Special (the biggest Batchoy bowl), the problem was that I didn't feel like eating the Liver and the intestines. They were hard to chew. Wh talked and catched up to each other, then "le wild" idea appeared that we really both loved. We went to Villa to eat at Stanley's. Look at her blog when she posts it. The Food was incredible. We had great laughs, talked so much and learned many things. I especially love eating the Kalamay-Hati. Dw ka sbd lng gd xng mga galibod xng ginamos w/ mangoes. Atrium went well, we found some really nice clothes. I am really happy that we spent the day together, catching up and just having fun together. It's been ages since, right? We'll take it step by step. (baby steps, maybe) But, we'll definitely make it work. Thank you for coming with me to the Salon for my haircut. Thank You. Thank You. I am happy, I hope you are too. I know you are. Thank You. We'll do this again when we're free.

Hey, I just met you,

and this is crazy,but here's my number,so call me, maybe?
Well, we didn't really just newly met, we met fourteen years ago. I have you're number and I wont hesitate to call and text you. I will definitely call you Coz':
I miss you so badI miss you so badI miss you so so bad
I do. Thank YOU so much for today. I am really happy. We both are, I know. :-)I sure do wish we had taken a picture where both of us are in it. 

Brother's & Sisters? Twins we are, but we are definitely more than friends.
Remember, we still have that promise of Bacolod and I hope you would never forget the question I asked you when we were eating at Stanley's: The "Why did I **** you if I..."
Take you're time, we still have lots f years ahead of us, let's not rush.

 :)

Thank You,

H

La la love you

Come feel my heart 
It’s beating like a drum and I confess
When you’re around
It’s like an army’s marching through my chest


And there’s nothing I can do
I just gravitate towards you
You’re pulling on me like the moon


You’re like a song
A beautiful symphony to my eyes
So take me on
I wanna sing along all through the night


I’m not like the other boys
Cause with you I’ve got no choice
You make me wanna lose my voice
I just wanna get you sideways
No, I’m not the type to lie
Let me turn off all these lights
You know that you could be my favourite lullaby


What would you do if I told you that I la, la, la, la, loved you?

Well, I do really love you. I really miss you. I hope we could talk soon.

:-)

Invisible

Sometime I feel as though I am invisible, not being seen or heard by anyone around me. It's an odd feeling mixed with embarrassment and sadness. When you are talking to someone and not get heard, things might be bit embarrassing. I have to work my way to get myself be heard and be noticed by the ones that I acknowledge. These things are hard, but with effort and patience, it might as well work.

It's been another long Tuesday. We all thought we would have tests today, but the teachers forgot or something unexpected happened to them. Anyway, quiz week is starting again as we get closer and closer to our Preliminary Examinations this coming July. Things got a bit busier and complex. but that is 3rd year life, the MAJORS. Engr. Java told us that we need time to study and solve at home to increase our knowledge. 3rd year is the hardest among the years because it is the transition year and the year that you will have to learn everything you can to pass the higher majors.

Things will be ok, H. It will. Just give the effort to everything you love and care about. Keep focusing on your goals. But I will never forget my virtues. I KNOW things will be alright with my family, friends and with J. We can work all of these out in time with the effort and the care.

I do not want to be invisible, the one that is lonely and sulking at everything. I want to make things right for the better. We need to assure ourselves that we are alright and we could help each other better :)


It's okay now, things will get better. They will for sure. You could take a deep breath and compose yourself, take your time, I won't rush. It will be okay. Don't worry too much because the burden will further stress you out. You've got dreams too, follow and achieve it. Everyone is here to support you, I will definitely do too. Be happy, Live on, Laugh hard, and Love even more. It's a life worth having :)

Daddy's Day

I hope the title didn't sound that Gay. Haha. Anyway, today is Father's Day. Happy Father's Day, Toto Hector Jr. Haha. Well, I may be very hard headed and always not asking for help when I need it, (on my engineering subjects) even though I know nga na agyan mu na na kg may nabal.an ka sa lessons ku. I am really sorry. I know that our family isn't all that perfect on the outside, but it really is perfect for me and my brothers. Thank You for everything. You support us with everything you've got and help us out eventhough we don't ask for it. You are always there for us when we need you the most. let us keep on running and endure the run of a lifetime. 

June 16, 2012

(because I didn't write a blog yesterday...)

Thank You, Jes for these pasalubongs, Knamit xng Durian Macaroons, Candy and Yemas. I really appreciate it. Especially that you baught a Pomelo, "Cabugao" in local terms, for me and you remembered that it is my favorite food. Thank You. Thank You. HOPE. I am. :)

Philippine Independence Day '12

It's been 114 years since the Filipinos obtained freedom from the Spaniards who ruled them over 333 years. But it wasn't total freedom because after that we were ruled by the US Forces and the Japanese Government. We officially obtained our independence from the US on July 4, 1946. I believe that has to be the day that we Filipinos call Independence Day.

I woke up around 10am because Max(Maximus my dog) licked my toes and fingers. Well... I took a bath and ate breakfast. Lunch came a bit later around 12 and we had Tinolang Manuk. Daddy and I made our first try of Crepes, though it was really a complete fail, some were overcooked and all were just not thin enough. What can you expect for the first try? I did my homework which led up to now.

In other news, the NBA finals start tomorrow between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Miami Heat. It's the Thunder's Home Court at Chesapeake Stadium, Oklahoma. It's the battle of the natural forces of the Earth. Thunder and Heat. Which forecast will win it all? Only on NBA TV 9pm EST.

I am rooting for the west cost! I don't wanna give the King his ring because he's never the king in the first place. I'm okay if Wade and Bosh wins though. Go OKC! Beat the Heat and bring on the Thunder and Rain! Cool off the Heat!

Westbrook >>> Chalmers
ThaboHarden =< Wade
Durant = LeBron
Ibaka = Bosh
Perkins >> Haslem

Bench:
Thabo > Battier
Collison >> Anthony
Fisher = Miller


Well, Happy Independence Day Philippines! Good Night!

P.S. Great game by the Azkals! Bad thing that I missed the game :|

P.P.S. Take Care going home from Mindanao. I know you had fun. Well, off to school, I am. :)

Sad day for sports

Hi there! I woke up in the morning around 4:30am because I had to participate in the annual 5k Iloilo Society Run "Roberto Chua Memorial Run". Me and daddy left aroun 5am for the Freedom Grandstand. The race started around 6am and the route was 1.5km from Grandstand to the pier where the large ships dock (behind Fort San Pedro) then another 1.5km back to the Freedom Grandstand, then 1km to the Fountain near Atrium Plaza, then another 1km back to the Grandstand for a total of 5km. It was really humid and I couldn't breath too well because of the very large number of crowds. It was the largest in Iloilo so far this year with more than 3000 participants. I finished my run with 27minutes on my watch though I have to minus a minute because I started my timer early and that the crows was blocking the starting line. 26 minutes isn't all that, but it is my best 5k time in recent years because I almost always had an before a major event (unlcky me).

We went home directly and ate the "give-aways" of the run.
I watched the Boston-Miami game, and the game was rigged by the referees. So many non-calls cost the Celtics a victory and another finals berth. We'll we all know that OKC will be there and stop LBJ of another ring. LBJ is nothing but a big-headed athlete that is selfish and wants everything for himself. He will never win in that mindset. DWade is a better player than LBJ will ever be. So, after the Celtics ended their season, it is uncertain what will happen to the team with Garnett and Allen being unrestricted free agents coming into the offseason...

Around 12nn, we had a Live Streaming of the Pacquiao vs. Bradley fight. It was an intense and close battle with Manny hitting Bradley hard. Bradley wouldn't fall because of will power and he deserved credit for that but the fight was rigged against the Pacman. I don't know how he lost the fight because all the punches Tim gave to Manny never even hurt the Pacman. But Pacman's punches are always on time and really shut the lights out of Bradley. The firght was rigged where 2 judges scored 115-113 against Manny and a judge scored 115-113 for Pacquiao. The fans, viewers, media and sports analysts all say that Manny deserved to win the fight. Heck, even Bradley said himself that he couldn't beat the guy (Pacquiao) just after the fight. 39% to 18% of punches landed in favor of Manny. All the statistics and footage suggest that Manny definitely won the fight. Well, we'll see if the WBF review the fight and makes the right call. Ultimately, there will be a rematch this coming November for the fighters.

The world was in shock and awe as the most ridiculous and controversial boxing match ended with Bradley still undefeated and gave the Pacman his 4th loss. I've said it before and I'll say it again, That's just one life of the Pacman down and still has many-manny more to go. He'll be back up stronger, more focused and beat the heck out of all his opponents. Watch out Mayweather! The world knows he's scared to fight the Pacman.

We'll it's time to doze off after a long, tiring and confusing day. Enjoy guys! And I hope that somewone is really enjoying Mindanao! Take Care, ok? :D

Hope is always there

Today started out really great. I went with Jes to her dentist as she had her teeth cleaned. We then went to Anja's house to get the bug for Paul to identify, but instead, we took a picture of it and posted in the net for identification purposes. Me and Jes went to WB to tag along with mommy. Mommy had to buy things at SM so, me and Jes tagged along. I found myself getting a pair of eyeglasses for my continuously damaging eyes. Thank You Jesyl for the wonderful gift of picking the best frames for the glasses. We went grocery shopping after that. I know that you wanted a picnic and going to the beach, and we haven't had time. I am sorry that i did not reach your expectations and fulfill our summer goals. Moonleaf tea party was waiting for us around 2pm, I had Vanilla Milk Tea, and it was wonderful, though it was weird at first, but it was great. We shared the  Butter Cream Icing laced Chocolate Cake and Pure Chocolate Cake with Manang Jinky and Nang Kathy. SM Delgado was the next stop to buy wheat bread. We went to Jesyl's house to prepare for her trip to Davao and Gen San for 5 days. Well, I hope that she and her family have fun. i know she will take care.

The day started with a blast but ended a bit not well. I know that I have changed, maybe my voice became louder, but I assure you that I never raise my voice to you, even if I am angry, I would never ever shout at you. I admit that I do not know the volume of my tone because I always speak so loud, I am trying, really trying to control my voice. I am sorry for the negativeness of always negating what you say. There are things that we need but can be accomplished by other means too, maybe that is the reason for my negativeness, I am trying too to lessen this.

It made me really happy when I saw you today, first thing in the morning with the necklace around your neck. It gave me hope. Now, we are acquaintances, but because of that I know we will definitely be more than friends. I was disappointed because maybe I lost my chance to make things right. But I have to try, try harder. I know that things will be alright. Because I DO LOVE YOU, I still have hope. I do hope. PRAY! Thank You so much for the summer. :)

Arrozday!

Well, it's Thursday today. Another half day of classes. This time, classes started around 11:30 because of the new schedule. Vectors were a bit hard to understand. It was a pretty much OK day except that we had to endure our growling stomachs because of the straight class up to 7pm. Anyway, me and the gang ate arrozcaldo @ engi lobby just before DE. 3 refills! Haha. Gutom2 gd b mu. I understood the lecture of DE somehow. Well... I guess it was a tiring day. Atleast there would be no class tomorrow until wednesday. 4 days of rest! Get ready Pacman vs Bradly coming up this sunday!Today was a very loooong day, especially with "Mandy", Engr. Manderico, doing his stuttering and monotone lecture, 1 and a half hours looked like a full afternoon with him. But, I'll get through it.Off to bed. Good Night, guys! :)

But before I really go, here's a video that I want to share with the world. LOMO the band! It is a newly hyped project band of God Child's Kr Quiñon.

Kr Quiñon - Vocals / Rhythm Guitar

Pao Losañes - Lead Guitar

Renz "Bugart" Borres - Le Sexy Bass

Justin Celis - Drums

Enjoy! :)

Today is wednesday. Glad that today is half day only. We had formal classes and it was A-OK, well... so far.

Went to wvsu to give Anja her bug and to go with Jes for her enrollment. Met Franz & Angelo too. Had a great time with NMAT (abi kuxng una N-Math. Haha) book review. Went to Big Bites with Jes, Anja and Chito. It was  a great day. I also went window shopping with Jes. Damu2 nami stuffs, right Sperry? Nd gd ni ka2log ang ibn guro sa excitement. Well, let's get some rest. It's been a tiring but fulfilling day. I had fun. Thank You again. Food trip ta! :D

Today, Mr. Trololo (Eduard Khil) died out of stroke, my deepest condolences to him.

Well, class started 2:30pm, but still prior to change. Had class with Engr. "Mandy" Manderico, one of the old teachers in the school. He stuttered too much, did not know what to say. Haha. But, still I am looking forward to the class. Next up is with Engr. Java on Circuits I. Then to cap it off, Engr. Prado with Differential Equations. DE is really a subject to fear. For me anyways. I just have to focus and compose myself. I want to pass and never to fail. 

Went home, Tito JP, Tita Gemma, and Ninang Carol were here talking to Mommy about their reunion. I am trying to help them with some venues too. Watched Azkals vs Indonesia. 2-2 score. 3 red cards. 2 for Caligdong and Ott respectively and 1 for the Indonesian Captain. Bugbuganay kmu da ah.  Haha.

That's it for today. Gonna sleep. Class back 8am tom. Bye. 

1st day of Classes (2012)

Hi again! Well, I went through the 1st day of 3rd year college life. It was tiring and I could expect something out of the 1st semester already. Hell? Haha. Well, I just got to focus and do my work properly.

Started the day really good. Me and Jes went to John's for breakfast. I had Sizzling sisig (I told her that this was really delicious here and she really wanted to try this), and she had Tuna (I forgot the name). Kahang! I mean SPICY! Right? Anyway. She went to Anja's and I had classes.

1st class was Safety Management with Engr. Idemne. Same old, same old. Typical Sir Idemne, sing-along with praise songs and jokes with Jethro. Haha. Section B looks a lot small in number, but anyway it was a lot of fun.
2nd class was ith Engr Algudano for "Circuits I" but he was not around, so on to the 3rd class. The 3rd class with Sir Papang (Engr. Gepulango). Scary! Oooh! I did not know what to expect. He had jokes that we lagued at but overall, he is really kind of scary, what can you expect from old teachers in the university? Haha. I hope I could do well in this class, especially that it is Static Mechanics. I had lunch at home after that.
4th was the Auto-CAD class with Engr. Acanto. Well, as a 1st timer in his class, he seemed kind of OK and knows what he's doing. I certainly want to learn more out of CAD!
5th and last was Vector Analysis with Engr. Sacramento (because Engr. Calibjo didn't want a night class). We had discussions about the change of time for classes. We finally settled in for 11:30-1pm TTH, starting Thursday.

And my 1st day ended with a dinner with Jes at Lorlour's Pizza. The pizza was overloaded with cheese, big olives and sausages. I give it an OK 7/10. Hehe. Well, we were stuffed and decided to go home. So kapoy.
Here I am writing this blog, now time to sleep!

Thank You Jes! :D

Last day of summer

Hey guys, Apollo9 here.

Since it's the last day of summer, I've spent it sleeping most of the day. I didn't know what to do today. Anyway, can't say I'm excited on going back to school. But, that's life and we just have to follow our priorities first. Entering 3rd Year of Engineering School, it has rather been a difficult process. Crawling rather than running over it. Haha. Class starts at 8 am for Monday and Wednesday, 7am for Friday. The AWESOME part is that on Tuesdays and Thursday I start class 2:30pm! But sadly classes end pretty late, around 7pm everyday! Just my luck. I hope it wont be as exhausting as last year's schedule. Well, gotta go to sleep now, a long day awaits me tomorrow.

I thank you everyone that made my summer joyful. Thank You to "someone" for the 3 days of fun and happy summer vacation we had, I do with we had spent more time for each other this summer. Take Care. Bye, guys!

I wonder if it raining because the world is sad...

Hi. It's been a long time since I wrote a blog. Haha. Well, it's someway how I can express how I feel.

My summer was full of ups and downs. From school to the real life. Had fun times with College and High School classmates, but also had sad times with my real life and family problems. I still continue to move and try to be happy. But all I want is that someone to be happy. I don't know what is definitely happening right now that is ruining our lives but, I want her to know that I am always there for her no matter what. Support you and comfort you when you feel down, I will. Just keep your hopes and chin up, because time will heal and that God is watching over us.

Things have not been good for us throughout the summer, we had fun, we also had fights, but I guess we learned more from each other this summer especially. The stresses and concerns did their part. I know that it is not what I had hoped for to end the summer. I definitely wanted to end the summer happily, but it cannot be helped. I wish you God Bless and to always Take Care. I know you always do, but just be more cautious. I am here always when you need me. Tell me when something is wrong or has become worse. We will work it out and overcome it. Love-sick much? Well... That's what I am feeling now.

Anyway, I hope school starts out better than expected. I will not forget what has happened this summer, I will build myself and make myself better. By the time we could talk to each other again, I know things are better. I am waiting, and always will be. I do know that things will definitely get better. Thank you for the time we spent together yesterday, I had a really good time with you and it made me happy because it was a long time since we last went out together. Cookies n' Cream Pretzel, yum!

Hi, Beatle!

Thank you for the summer. :D

Back to school again. Happy to be 3rd year and entering my majors. Also happy that I passed the Engineering Qualifying exam. Good Luck to all! Till next time, bloggers! :)
