today marks the 11th year since papa left us. incidentally, today is also the feast of the archangels. i think it's just fitting. i believe papa has been my angel for the last 11 years. i have not been harmed, ill, or have made any life decisions that i regret. thanks pa. i know you've been proud.

the truth
This Is The Truth
If you turn things upside down
You can’t hope for your life to change
I would be lying to you if I said that
You have a great future ahead
That you can recover from your past mistakes
That your life could be filled with joy
That your children could be safe and healthy
More than anything you must know
Human beings can not accomplish these things
And I am convinced of this because I know you
All you are capable of is failure
You have made a complete mess of your life and
I refuse to believe under my circumstances that
You can turn things around in the coming years
You may think your life is bad now but
There’s more to come you have only destiny
And whether you like it or not
This is what is real
I am the Lord your God
You should know I believe exactly the oppositenow, read the message line by line going up.
it literally turns the message upside down :)
* saw this in a video in facebook, too bad i can't find the video on youtube.

the scorpion
The sexual Scorpio
A Scorpio is an intense, sexually insatiable lover whose desire for sexual exploration can often outstrip that of their partner.
They have a strong loyalty streak and their passion can become somewhat overwhelming at times.
They hate routine and make love with a remarkable intensity, are not above using sex to manipulate their partner, and can be domineering over every move in the bedroom.
Jealousy is a major feature in this sign often resulting in Scorpio becoming suspicious of their partner to the point of suffocating them.
When a Scorpio is with you they're with you and only you.
Scorpio’s generally have high standards although they tend to apply them to matters of particular interest to them.
They can present a calm outlook on the surface when in fact raging within. They love and live their own way and are far from easily influenced to any change their opinion or outlook.
There is a powerful magnetic quality inherent in the Scorpio - hypnotic in the male and femme fatale in the female, so that the intensity of their love attracts others toward them.
The Scorpio sign rules the genitals, and while this an erogenous body area for everyone, in case of Scorpio, it is the principal area of sexual focus. Gently stroking in this area will arouse and let loose the incredible passion of Scorpio.
Best Bed Mates for the Scorpio: Pisces, Capricorn, Virgo, Cancer, and Scorpio.
Scorpio's Career
To identify a Scorpio look for that determined person whose interior boils while their face remains frozen.
Due to their fascination with the mystical, life and death and mysteries you will often find these people the fields of doctor, healer, astrology, psychology or investigative type work such as a police or private detective.
These can be the “Terminator’s” of the Zodiac, not to be crossed.
A determined and active winner-take-all character who will maintain their eyes on the objective and never deviate.
They are generally straight shooters who can project charisma and charm, know how to zero-in on those important tasks and, where a deal is concerned, have no hesitation on going in for the kill.
They can be very loyal to those who earn their respect, but look out if you don’t.
They have high standards in general, but tend to apply those standards to areas of interest peculiar to themselves.
The Scorpio tends to like to manage, create and solve problems, they prefer to lead by example and love to win.
Where Scorpio can learn to manage their need for control, their aggressiveness and a potential for vindictiveness then they can be accomplished winners.
Strong-minded Scorpios can go far professionally, however they are not always interested in achieving status or grabbing the limelight, preferring to wield and manipulate power behind the scenes.
Such qualities often attract many Scorpio’s toward secretive cum investigative type work such as private detective, police, electronic snooping, undercover work, tax inspector, spying and even criminal activities.
Their natural investigative qualities together with their fascination for the mystical, life and death may often attract them toward careers in psychiatry, psychology, pathology, research and even undertaking. Those with a strong Mars influence in their charts may well gravitate toward careers in the military.
These folk were born to lead, investigate, create, heal and teach. Any career or vocation in keeping with such qualities will appeal to Scorpio.
i tend to agree with most of what's written. i have to ask people around.
yun lang. hmm, que interesante.

yesterday, i woke up to the sound of rains outside my window and i thought it's gonna be another long cool day. but i was not prepared to see the flooded street in front of our house. our street virtually never flooded before except for those super strong typhoons. still after a few minutes, it will be gone.
but the water kept rising. tita madette, JR, and tito jojie started moving their cars to the garage. lolo was already shouting to everyone at the house because the antiques in the shop are being flooded.
less than 30 minutes later, the water rose to waist-deep. a friend who's stuck in edsa called and i needed to bring food already. i packed my things and waited a little to see if the flood would go down a little. it's still going up and i had to leave already because i might not be able to make it if i waited a little longer.
what normally takes less than 5 minutes to jollibee edsa took me over 15 minutes to reach. i can't begin to imagine how much courage it took me to tread the waters with cockroaches, rats, garbage, animal feces, and engine oil floating and swimming around me. at one point i had to stop to look for my slippers because the current swept it off. i knew then, the weather was turning for the worse.
i eventually made it to the car, kawawa naman in the middle of edsa with hazzards on. we ate and drove a while -- looking for places where we can park. we found ourselves on edsa-magallanes flyover and stayed there until 6 or 7 pm. edsa soutbound was not moving but the north bound lane was light. we headed to the gas station along edsa-dasmariƱas village and we had dinner there.
we were just waiting for the flood to subside in our house so we can go home. after much waiting and texting to my cousin for flood news, we headed home. i got home at a little earlier than 1am. though the streets were still flooded, it was just ankle-deep that time.
i thought it was bad. and it was bad. but i never thought it was THIS bad.
thank you lord for keeping me and my family safe. i heard my relatives in antipolo are not doing well and i'm praying for them. keep them safe. keep all of us safe.

mahirap hindi mainis, pero ano pang magagawa ko.
lord, give me a bucketful of tolerance please. tolerance lang. kahit hindi na muna happiness. tolerance lang po talaga.

bad day
but as they say, it's all about perspective.
i had a bad day because:
- i twisted my leg, can't walk properly, and it hurts like mother
- i had an after-office training
- my computer in the office broke down... again.
- it started raining shortly after the training and i was soaking wet when i got home
- i'm having palpitations yet again
- i didn't have the time to get the results of last week's tests
- my land line is still not working
but i should be happy because:
- my mommy loves me
- mommy and jamie are now doing fine
- daryll and janna are both doing great
- i have close friends
- the weather is cooler
- i was able to get all things done today
- i did not make a fuss over what i'm feeling
- i still have legs
- my blood tests were negative for hyperthyroidism
- i got seasons 2 and 3 of avatar
- my colds are now virtually gone
- i don't spend on dinners
- i'm 100% debt free
- i can do anything i want
see, 14 to 7. though i'm still cringing every time i take a step, the happy stuff still outweigh the bad stuff.
ciao.

may minsanang pag-ungol ng aso sa malayo ngunit mabilis din namang tumitigil.
sa malayong lugar -- malayong malayo sa kinauupuan ko -- sa ibabaw ng isa sa pinakamataas na gusali, may mga taong nagiingay. nagsasaya. lango ang kaluluwa sa alak, kwentuhan, tawanan, at samahan. at lango rin ang alak sa kanilang mga kaluluwa.
di pa tiyak, ngunit aalis din sila sa kanilang kinalalagyan. iiwan ang lugar na may natapong alak sa mesa, mga tirang pagkain sa platito, isang nahulog na tinidor sa sahig, at dalawang basag na baso sa pasimano. ngunit hindi magtatagal ang kalat na iyon at ililigpit din -- lilinisin ng mga taong minsan nilang inutusan ng isa pang baso ng tubig at pinaghingan ng kubyertos.
iiwan nila ang maingay na lugar at babalik din sila sa mga silid nilang walang ibang tunog kung hindi ang nakakabinging katahimikan.
at babalik din siya kung nasaan ako ngayon. sa espasyong hindi kaila sa kanya. sa upuang minsan ay naging kanya. at malalalaman niya ang pagkanta ng buwan. at mahihirapan na siyang sumunod sa himig ng isang gabing tahimik.

notes to self
i don't like being in a high-school crowd. i find them so... immature and maarte. "like omg, have you seen her?!" "like, i know rrryyyyeee!!" "what's A yosi if there's no alak?"
and those are actual lines i overheard.
ewww.
i should tone my passion a bit lower. i get all passionate and it comes right smack at my face and a;sofw04fjascma;lg. a;osdfja;sfjasi8wuerfamn...
i miss drinking.
went out with tootsie last saturday. 'twas a blast. kahit kaming dalawa lang hehehe. medyo sumi-serious ang usapan. harhar. the last time i saw her was when she dropped by the office pa pala. last year pa yata yun.
i need to have a kaladkarin friend. medyo namimiss ko na yung times na kahit nasa bahay lang ako, pag naisipan kong umalis, may sasama. o kaya pag naisip kong gumawa ng bagay, may gusto jumoin. kahit na kape lang or movie, may magpapauto. yung ganun lang. medyo double edged sword din kasi ang living independently -- you come home to no one and you come home to no one. gets?
oh eh ano naman kung umi-emo ako ngayon? :P
alas dos na wala pa rin.
ciao.
