Balentong!

Malipayon nga pag sa-ulog sang adlaw sang taghipusu-on. Ang tinaga nga taghipusu-on amo ini ang masami naton mabati-an sa mga ta-o nga ara sa idalom sang pangginahom sang isa ka madalom nga emosyon; pwedi kaakig,kalipay,kalangkag kag pag kakibot! Para sa akon, ang ini nga adlaw gina sa ulog hindi lamang para sa mga tinuga nga naga hirupay ukon naga palangga-anay, kundi, para sa akon ini nga adlaw isa na naman ka kahigayunan kong diin ara ang dako nga uportunidad para liwat nga mag reconcilyar sa nga sadtong balatyagon nga madugay na nga nalimtan ukon hungod nga gin kalimtan tungod sang kaakig kag pag ka dula sang pag salig! Ini nga adlaw dapat man nga e silibrar sang mga ta-o nga binaya-an kag naga isahanon. Bilang isa sa mga abyan ninyo, akon gid kamo gina hang-yu nga updi man ninyo ako sa pag silibrar sang sini nga adlaw nga may pag la-um, kag bukas nga taghipusu-on sa pag baton sang aton tagsa-tagsa nga kapaslawan, pag intindi sang mga kapaslawan sa aton tanan nga pinalangga nga nag apekto gid sang aton tagsa-tagsa ka kabuhi. Sa liwat malipayon nga pag saulog sang adlaw sang taghipusu-on.

Brief Iloilo stop, and missed everything.


My recent vacation back in my home town was a brief one (like the last time), so I haven't gone to many  places due to limited time. Besides it was really for my Lola's 80th birthday.  I got the chance to see my aunts too from abroad after quite some time.

Nanay and Nanay (Lola) P

The Clan


Anyway, the nothing really change much of the city except for some weird jeepney routes. Oh, and there's the Boardwalk, I got to pass by there. It was really knucklehead move of me not to bring my prehistoric digicam. It was a nice place, calm.  From the Boardwalk I got to pass by the new road connecting Diversion and Tabucan. Wow, we have the Ateneo in there. I so happy for Mandurriao.  I felt like a stranger in my own place after so many years.

Maybe next time I come home, I'll stay more than a week. When I got back to Manila, darn it, they went out to the beach in Anhawan. Man I miss the beach so much, I wanna get off that plane.  Oh, the next couple of days, they went hiking in Antique. Waaaaa!! Kill me now.

Anhawan Resort in Oton




Tibiao, Antique






Okay, enough of the ranting. I got to eat local batchoy at Deco's though, as a consolation.



By the way, the last time I was here, no Starbucks yet.

ENTER THE DRAGON!

I don't know what's the correct way of greeting, its either Kung Hei Fat Choi or Gong Xi Fa Cai or Kiong Hee Wat  Chai. It's the year of the Water Dragon, and according to so called feng shui experts, its going to be a rough year. Is Chinese astrology coinciding with the Mayans? We'll all hope it does not. Anyway, bring out the Tikoy, and as she said it best.. Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Hello 2012!


The holidays are over. The never ending food actually ended, and the past year...well... is over and so we start anew.  'Twas a year to be remembered...not! Actually, I really did not liked 2011. Nothing really significant happened. I dunno, maybe it was just me not doing anything to make things happen.  I did have a lot of goals during that year, but they ended just wishes as nothing was accomplished.

And now I face 2012, another year, another beginning, oh and did I say another number just added to my age? Anyway, I won't expect much to this year, as the scum of the past year will still haunt me, and until I'm done with all that, then I can say that a new beginning will start. I won't make promises this 2012, but will try to make this year a lot better than 2011. That year really sucked for me. I dunno where I will start but hopefully Beth's coming home this February will shed some light. I am really looking forward to that day. Wow, it has really been a year, and it was fast. I could still remember the day we took her to the airport.

Okay, so I guess, I'll just have to clean out 2011's mess and move on, so help me God.


By the way, I do hope 2012 won't come up short and end at December 21. :)

Happy New Year everyone.

PAROL of RECYCLED MATERIALS

Why does it have to be just me who has the artistic mind around the office? Every year, I'm tasked to do this, design this, make this... but hey, I'm not complaining or anything, 'cause I love doing this stuff, just to break away from the norm. I'm thinking though its either no one gives a crap to even bother doing this things and they are glad I'm on their team or they have full on believe in me. Either way, I'll take the damn task any time, even with a few back pain and lack of sleep issues after. For this year, I made this. It's not much, I have to cram it in 2 days.

DEAR ORLY

Tay!

Musta ka na da? Diin ka subong man? Pero kung diin ka man, bal'an ko nga mayo na ang plastada mo dira. Grabe ulihi ta nga kit'anay 13 palang ako, subong mas gwapo na ko sa imo. He he. Teh, kundi wala mo makita kung anu ka gwapo subang mo subong. Pero sige lang makit'anay gid kita balang araw.

Mayo man kami diri ah, survive man, maski budlay ang pangabuhi. Baw, gin bilin mo ako nga lamharon palang, na pwersahan nalang ko nga mag tindog bilang tatay sa mga utod ko eh. Although, medyo wala na tuman ang expectations, pero sige lang ang imnportante, lipay lang kag wala gamo. Ay may apo ka na gale, pero indi sa akon. Dugay pa na ya sa akon ah.  Damo problema sa balay, pero gina tinguhaan man nga masolbar ah.

Siguro kung ari ka di subong, upod kita permi hampang basket kag chess asta pusoy dos kung; hagaron ta sa pañero Boy eh. Inom inom ta sa balay, pero bal'an ko kung mauntat ka na inom after mo gwa sa hospital. Tani sang ari ka pa diri, gin tudluan mo ko mag gitara. Handom kag dumot ko asta subong magtukar gitara. Syempre mahilig man ko daan sa music, diin pa ako bi ma sunod? Daya'on ka imo ya, gulpi ka lang nag halin.

Pero sa tuod, nahidlaw na ako sa imo. Nabudlayan ako, pero gina kaya ko, para sa mga manghod ko kag si nanay.  Di ko gusto manging emosyonal basi tulo sip'on ko. Pero isa ka bagay lang gusto ko hambal sa imo, palangga ta ka, kag maski bitin pag updanay naton, ikaw ang the best!

Happy Father's Day gali ah!


Ang pinakagwapo mo nga bata,

Noy

THANK GOD IT'S OVER!! (THE ROYAL PARADE OF CRAZY HATS)

So okay, tapos na ang Royal Wedding. Can we go on with life now? Please.. 

I was out early from work, by the time I arrived home, turned on the TV hoping to see what good to watch. For a few seconds, the totally forgot about the Royal Wedding, and God! They are all over the goddamn TV! Every channel I switched to, it's their faces I see. This is hopeless, might as well suck it in. (at least I'll have something to rant about, like now).  I really did't paid much attention to the whole wedding, but what caught my attention it the parade of the most eccentric head dresses. My aunt told me it's "traditional" to the Brits, but ODK! do they have to be that Lady Gaga-ish??

Here's a few of them:

Princess of Kent
Lady Sophie Winkleman
Zara
Uhmm? dunno this lady but I know Deputy Prime Minister Clegg
No idea who
Oh, look at that, It's Posh.. I mean Mrs. Beckham
Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice of York

Not to be outdone is Her Majesty herself. 

If you still can't get enough.. How about these..



You want some tea??



At least he's getting into the fad



Well, I didn't finish the whole wedding and the latter part of it 'cause I have a movie to catch (THOR), and I did miss the kiss thing, so I guess I'll just have to keep on looking at it here.


Ang di ko lang maintindihan is how this whole thing got into the hearts of Pinoys, I mean why do have to care? Really? Di naman kita under sg British colony. I don't what benefit it would give us. I guess were just suckers for this, bandwagoners.

So as what I am saying earlier, the whole thing is over.. so could you please bring back the regular programming on my TV.

SEMANA SANTA SA AMON (SADTO)

Semana Santa na naman. Dumduman ko pa sadto sg lamharom pa ako, mga few days before sg Palm Sunday, naga libot na ako ni sa amon lugar para mag solicit.  During this time ang tawo sa lugar namon busy na because we are going to convert the waiting shed sa bangga into one of the Stations of the Cross, the Ninth Station to be precise. Si tatay ni usually naga una sg buhi pa sya, then later it was Apa (tiyo).

Ipa gwa na namon ang mga gamit from last year nga pwede pa i'restore. There I could see mga tawo sa amon buliganay putting up the Kapiya. Pag na tapos na usually ang mga heavy part like ang pag construct kag electrical, ang mga babaye namon mabulos para i'decorar. The funny part is that, kanya kanya sila pa gwa ng ila pinaka manami nag tanum kag bulak para ipasundayag, trying to outdo the other houses' plants.

By Mierkules Santo sg gabi, ara na na mag tipilipon kami sa tubang sa Kapiya. Kanya kanya dala pulungku'an, kay ma sugod na kami kanta Pasyon. Usually, si Nang Pining (Abilo) or si Nang Lena (R.I.P.) ni ang ga lider lider sg rosary. Pagkatapos ara na nagguluwa mga pala-oy la-oy tingong ni Lola Elid. The thing is its not oldies affair tungod madamo nga kabataan sadto sa lugar namon ang ga intra kag ga'upod kinanta. There's also the meron nga ara lang da for the free food.

Since nag baylo pari sa Mandurriao, ang age old tradition sa lugar gin dula nya. I mean for what I can remember ang tawo sa Mandurriao started this thing way long time ago. Anyways, hidlaw lang ko because every Holy Week, I look forward to this. The only time that mga tawo sa amon just gather around in one place not just to get together but to observe the lent in prayers.

This is very different from here where I am now. Ang mga tawo diri ya daw wala lang paki'alam, and very busy to such thing. They are taking advantage of the long weekend partying rather than observe the solemnity of the season.

Even I have work on Good Friday.

KUNG HEI FAT CHOI !!

(pagwa'a na tanan; si bugs bunny kag roger rabbit, kag kung sin'o pa da nga wabbit.) 

Pero ang prediction sa akon nga gin bata sa tuig sg ido amu sini:

This is going to be one of the best years for those who were born on the Year of the Dog with lucky stars surrounding you! Students will do brilliantly, business plans will go through smoothly, health is better, there will be harmony in family life, and your wealth luck will be excellent with wise investments bringing in great returns. Career and business growth will be high. However, being a little cautious while participating in outdoor games will be a good idea. Ease up on indulgence while social networking. Do not forget to spice up your life with your partner by enjoying a vacation some time in 2011. Enjoy!


I think this is going to be a great year. I don't usually believe in astrology, but nothing is wrong with a little guide right. Ikaw man gihapon ang gakapot sang imo nga kabuhi.  So sa tanan ta nga mga utod nga Intsik, Kung Hei Fat Choi!

SNOWY

Dugay man kag wala ako ka lantaw pelikula sa sinehan. Pila man ka bulan, siguro tuig man. Kay ang madumduman ko nga ulihi gn lawataw ko sa sine is Righteous Kill ni Robert De Niro kag Al Pacino.

Sg nag ligad semana, nag ka'chansa ako maglantaw sine. Domingo, Mothers' Day, natabuan nga naka'upod ako sa family sg girlfriend ko para mag celebrate. But sg ara kami sa mall, expected ang tawo pwerte ka damo. After kami naka kaon, nag decide si papa nya na maglantaw nalang sine para may matambayan.

There's a lot of good movies showing, Iron Man 2 including. We went to see..... You To Me Are Everything.

                                              
And quite frankly,  I enjoyed the movie.  From the beautiful mountains of Benguet.

Shame on me.

HALLOWEEN WEEKEND BLUES

Oh well, third  Halloween here in Manila and same ol’ routine…

Halloween eve.  As much as I wanted to go out on a Saturday night, heck I was stuck back at work as if I wasn’t expecting this, worse I was until 5… Oh well, the upside is, I don't have to get out and spend money ‘coz I'm running a little low on dough… Good enough I was down snoring by the time a got home.

All saint’s day. What else to do on a Sunday? sleep all day. Yeah right! Wohoo!


Next day, all soul’s day. Uhmm ma’am Nats asked who would like to not work that day,  since I dont have anyone to visit in the cementary here, I decided to work that day since it was a special holiday ( it’s supposed to be a regular holiday goddamit!).  Well not much work during that day and it was sort of a breeze.. pa’easy easy lang. The downside is im bored..  and hungry ( I'm still broke, darn).

Nonetheless, still missed my ol’ man. I used to be the busiest one during these days back home, going to the cementery and all... and maybe next year, I’ll never be there again *sigh*

[This is actually my first whole length blog post, entirely spoken in English.]
