“Sa hinaba-haba ng prusisyon, bading din pala ang iyong karelasyon.”

Goodbye Darna…

All things must come to an end. After 9 months on television, last night was the episode finale of Darna.

I just hate how they end the story. First, Darna’s final battle with Valentina was so lame. With just one hit of the red light emitted by her red stone, Valentina fainted and died. Second, the Captain Barbell teaser destroyed the denouement of the story. With or without him, it can still have a great ending. I hope GMA7 will not end Encantadia like this.

And I replied, “Yes, I Do!” Haha! Just kidding.

I’ve watched this movie with Rodney last Friday at Eastwood Cinema 2, 11:00PM LFS. We were actually planning to watch it at 7:35PM slot, but to our dismay, sold out. Tried 9:30PM and 10:15PM, both sold out! Waaaaah! So we had no choice then, we took the LFS. Even though we were both sleepy, the film kept us awake. This is worth watching. Good film.

Cellphone vs. Bible

I got this poem of comparison from an e-group. I don’t know who wrote it, but this will make you realize that certain things can be so valuable to us even you had it for a lesser value.

“Ang Cellphone at ang Bible”

Ang cellphone laging hawak ipinapakita,
Ang Bible laging nakatago at ayaw ipakita.

Ang cellphone binibili kahit libo-libong halaga,
Ang Bible ayaw bilhin, kahit isang daan ang halaga.

Ang cellphone laging pinapalitan ng case,
Ang Bible hindi man lang mabilhan ng case.

Ang cellphone ay ayaw magasgasan,
Ang Bible hinahayaang maalikabukan.

Ang cellphone bihirang makaligtaan kung saan iniwan,
Ang Bible madaling makaligtaan kung saan naiwan.

Ang cellphone mahirap ipahiram, baka masira,
Ang Bible madaling ipahiram, kahit mawala.

Ang cellphone laging binabasa kung may bagong message,
Ang Bible hindi binabasa kaya hindi makita ang message.

Ang cellphone message masarap i-share.
Ang Bible verse nakakalimutang i-share.

Ang cellphone pinapakita ang lifestyle ng tao,
Ang Bible nagpapabago ng lifestyle ng tao.

Ang cellphone mabilis maluma,
Ang Bible hindi naluluma.

Ang cellphone message kung minsan ay late,
Ang Bible laging on time ang message.

Ang cellphone kailangan magload para mag-message,
Ang Bible laging fully loaded ang message.

Ang cellphone ay mahalagang gamit ng tao,
pero ang Bible ay mas mahalaga kung gagamitin ng tao.

Alpha and Omega

While on our way home from Ayala Alabang with our father, I saw these two weird nature panorama… one reveals life, but the other one screams death.

Alpha: Rainbow
Omega: Dead Tree

Father Friday

Since last friday was a non-working holiday, my siblings and I went to visit our father at my aunt’s place in Ayala Alabang and our late grandmother buried under St. James Parish. With us was Danise, my brother’s girlfriend. My father prepared Pancit Canton, Barbeque, Grilled Steak, and Lechong Paksiw for lunch. Then we visited Lola Letty and offered a prayer. It was wonderful to start the long weekend with a person who you don’t see often.

L-R: Papa, Danise, Marvin, Melvin

Lovers In Padis

November 3, Thursday, the last working day for the week since PGMA declared the next day as non-working holiday. After more than an hour of deliberating where to go after work, me and my officemates finally decided to go to Padis Point Antipolo. Yes, you got it right, a long road trip to Antipolo. Hehe!

Lovers in Padis: Me (Martin), Ace (Vivian), Vench (Carlo)
L-R: Jane, Ace, Jonard, Vench, Me

Wednesday morning. My Mom and I took a cab together going to our respective offices. But to my surprise, the name of the cab is… “DARNA”. Manong the Driver made my day. Hehe!

Me at the Entrance

Rodney and I decided to attend the much awaited Halloween party of the Pink Society. We somehow made an effort to at least decorate our faces as our costume. We had a little of cake white powder (what Geishas put on to their faces), a maroon lipstick, an eyeliner, and a silver hair mascara. We went to Government at around 1:30AM. We’re lucky to witness the Halloween Costume Contest.

But for some reasons, we had a little misunderstanding. I never thought it can be vicious and turned out to be a very big mess. We just stayed there for about an hour. Then, I dropped him off to his office. Sigh.

I’ve been very busy for the past two months. I didn’t have time to fix and update my blog, which is slowly crawling to its near death experience. Now, my blog will unite with the departed souls as they rise from their sepulchers this halloween.

Happy Halloween to all!

Oh my! I can’t stand it anymore! Aside from my regular work, I’m currently programming a college thesis from my Alma Mater. I swear, it’s definitely eating a lot of my time. Since then, I seldom go to gym and I can’t even update this blog! That is the downside of having a sideline. Sigh.
