I hate to say goodbye but I need to.

I decided to stop posting my blogs here and transfer to a new site…

A Life Long Learning Experience @ Multiply

Sa lahat po ng bumisita, nagbasa, nag-comment at mga naglaan ng oras sa mga blogs ko… maraming maraming salamat po. Pagpaumanhin niyo po, kailangan ko lang lumipat ng site para mapagpatuloy ang pagsusulat.

Goodbye Friendster… ang hirap kasi mag upload eh!!!

I was about to write down in my journal all my plans for this year (I started doing this exercise last year… and its effect is pretty amazing!) when I read these notes which I wrote just before I wrote my list last year. Coincidence you might say, the date was January 06, 2008… now is January 06, 2009.

i write
to remind myself
to inspire
others

i write
to remind and inspire
myself and others

i write
about myself and others
as reminder and inspiration

i write
about reminders and inspiration
for myself and others

same words, different thoughts
different words, same thought

but God’s words and thoughts
still the same

Again, I was reminded… by my thoughts.

Will someone please check with Pinoy-Record their requirements how to be featured on their show? My mom is a good contender for this!

Here’s her video captured last Saturday when we went to Global Village.

NANAY LIGAYA @ 68!

I’m not going to apply Nanay for Pinoy-Record because of this video. She simply the best choice for the BEST MOM in the WORLD!

If you are going to ask what’s her secret in keeping such energy? SMILE (plus DXN…hehehhee)!

Love you nanay!

“NANAY LEGAYA!, PASUK KA SA PINUY RIKORD!!!!”

Kuya Erning gave me a camcorder as a Christmas present. He surely loves me!!! Wahu!!!

When he sent me the camcorder, he included two miniDV with videos of them in Arizona. He just want me and the rest of us here to have an idea what’s life in that side of the world. He showcased his house, neighborhood, friends, camping, and other routines. What amazed me most were the videos of my nieces: Aya, Jhang, Kai, and Nona (as Fifi — her new nickname).

I tried to find some old videos of them from my files which I took using a digital camera the last time I saw them. And luckily, I found some with funny photos.

With help of a movie editing software, I made this video for them… sensya na po… just a beginner with this software.

Ang cute nila di ba? Naalala ko tuloy nung kami ring apat na magkakapatid…. when we danced during a town reunion at my father’s birthplace, Mainit, Banton, Romblon… buti na lang walang video!!! =)

Now, I have something to make me busy and very useful for my future blogs. Thanks Kerning for the camcorder!!! Love you!

My brothers told me that I usually make them cry with my posts. Most especially if I wrote something about Daddy, Nanay, or anything that make them remember our happy past. Haaayyyyy…

Then, K.Erning sent me this essay from Aya which she wrote as part of her school seatworks. All I can say is…. grabe!!! Here’s a scan copy of the essay and below it is the content.

GO FOR GOLD
by Aaliyah Fajut

I have special goals that completes my special abilities. I can get to my goal if I follow the footsteps that the special people in my life went through. They went through studies and work. I have to have my confidence to get to my goal.

My dad is one of the special people in my life. He worked really hard. Without him me and my family wouldn’t be here in Arizona. He calls me and my sisters his “Angels”. He’s calm, generous, and giving. He did all his best to take care of his family. He’s a good rolemodel to his friends and family.

My mom is a special woman. She keeps moving forward and discovers new things that she can reach teach to me and my sisters. She loves us as much as we love her. She married a wonderful man that she will love. She’s a loving mom. She does her responsibilites as a mom, a wife, and a teacher. She worked really hard to be a teacher.

Uncle Edmund is one of the special people in my life. He inspired me to become an artist. He practices drawing everyday. He’s a genius musician, too! He practiced very hard to get to his goal. He has a band back in Philippines. He’s a fun uncle to me, too! Back in Philippines he taught me how to draw a vase using pastels.

Those were things my family members reached. They did good deeds and good examples for me to copy. Then I can teach it to my sisters. I wonder if my parents ever think that if it’s potential for them to reach their goals.

Kuya Erning, kwits na tayo! huhuhuhu….

miss you all..

Maligayang Pasko sa inyong lahat!

It’s Nathan’s first Christmas.

Although 8-months old, I can see how excited he was (or is it me?). You should have seen him how he opened his gifts. Big smiles… glowing eyes … much excitement… not what’s inside each gift but the colourful wrappers. Ohhh… he just want to taste it! (seems delicious Daddy).

Thanks emtee for the photo!

Eto pala ang FEELING of being a father!

All my emotions being triggered by the “first” moments of Nathan brings me to my senses. Truly inspiring!

Then I think back…. si Daddy at Nanay rin kaya ganun din naramdaman sa mga “first” moments ko? how about my brothers? were they happy also? What was it during my first Christmas? Sana meron ng digicam nun noh. Para makita ko kung paano ako pinag-titripan ng mga utol ko. Hehehehe…

Miss you all! Buti na lang nandito si Nanay ngayon!

Love you bros… love you nanay… love you daddy…

love you mahal ko… love you nathan..

I haven’t seen them for almost 2 years now.

But thanks to technology where we can keep each other connected! And ohh boy! what a proud uncle I am…

Here’s why…. some poems from one of my niece…

LOVE by Aya
Love is eternal
Love is a sacrifice
Love is giving
Love is wonderful
Love is caring
It can’t be found in the air
But can be found in everyone’s heart
Love can be sorrow or joy
Love can be discovered everywhere
Love is a gift

Friendship by Aya
Friendship is wonderful
Friendship is understanding
Friendship is a gift for everyone
But not a gift what you can wrap
Friendship is a need
Friendship can’t be found anywhere
It can be found inside your heart
It can be discovered in your actions
It can be found up or down
Left or right
side to side
It’s on every corner
Friendship is everywhere

“If you think someone could use a friend, Be one.”

- Aaliyah “Aya” Fajut, 11 years old

I believe that there will come a time that everyone should have at least basic knowledge in programming and mark-up language like HTML to advance in technology. So I started to learn some algorithms…

    /*Start program*/
       STARTS

    /* Declaration of variables */
       $Daddy = Edmund;
       $Mommy = Irene;
       $Baby = Nathan;

    /* Call for function */

       LoveStatement( )
           echo “$Daddy loves $Mommy very much”;

           if $Mommy says “I Love You Too!” then
                 $Daddy will say “I Love You Much More Than You Know”;
           else if $Mommy says “Thank You”
                 $Daddy will say “You'll end up saying thank you
                         every minute because I will love you every
                         minute of my life”;
           end

       Loyalty( )
           $OtherWoman as variable;

            InputBox = “Name of the most beautiful woman you know: ____________ “
            Get value from InputBox

            if $OtherWoman --->>> $Daddy then

            case 1: $OtherWoman = “Dianna Zubiri”
                       $Mommy > $OtherWoman
                       case 1 end;
            case 2: $OtherWoman = “Marianne Rivera”
                       $Mommy > $OtherWoman
                       case 2 end;
            case 3: $OtherWoman = &anyFHM100Sexiest
                       $Mommy > $OtherWoman
                       case 3 end;
            if ERROR
                       $Mommy still no.1

            echo “$Mommy, My One and Only”

      LoveResult( )
            Since $Daddy loves $Mommy so much Then
            Let $Daddy.Kiss (n=1000x) $Mommy
            $Daddy + $Mommy = $Baby
                 Emoticon.Value = HappyFace (size = 1000x)

    /* Loop */
      while ($Daddy = = living)
           Do LoveStatement ( ) + Loyalty ( )
      end loop

    /* No function to quit or stop this program */
     END

I asked some professional programmers to debug my code to make sure that the result is what I want it to be, but it seems that they cannot help me.

I just want to love Irene more everyday…

Happy Birthday mahal ko

10:20pm

I was about to start this blog when Nathan started to cry. I didn’t know what he wants until…

I waaaaaannnnnnntttt that keyboard!!!!

Daddy this is easy!

Huh? what happened?

What if I press this button…

Daddy, how to use this?

This is fun!

And this is his first blog!

After an hour, he wants milk… then fell asleep.

Goodnight Nathan…

I started my interest (again) to learn more about open-source community. And believe me… I am about to stick to it this time.

According to wiki:
“Open source is a development methodology, which offers practical accessibility to a product’s source (goods and knowledge).”

To quote Ubuntu - an open source software…. (and definitely free!!!:)
“The most important thing about Ubuntu is that it confers
rights of software freedom on the people who install and use it. It is
these freedoms that enable the Ubuntu community to grow, continue to
share its collective experience and expertise to improve Ubuntu and
make it suitable for use in new countries and new industries.”

I like the idea of “free” here. It’s not about being free as without a price but rather the freedom it gives to all who use it.

Accessibility of the source code makes it more interesting. Anyone can be a developer or contributor as long as you know the programming language being used.

And also, if you find it very useful, the community expects you to contribute in any way you can: may it be reporting bugs, updates, tips / helps through forums, feedbacks and funding.

While working on new installed “free” softwares and reading some web
postings about this open-source, I had this simple reflection.

Our life … an open-source.

It is a program initiated by God and being developed through personal experiences and social interactions in which members of the community we belong to are the contributors in our development.

We are free…
God … the source of life…. is accessible…
I, too, belong to a community.

Right now, my computer’s operating system is Linux-Ubuntu but my life is being run by God.

To learn more about open source software, start your search with Linux.

To learn more about open source life, start your search with Jesus.

Christmas once again.

Maraming paraan tayong mga pinoy paano pinagdiriwang ang
kapaskuhan. Isa na rito ang simbang gabi. Dito sa Dubai, ang simbang gabi ay dinadaos simula 15 – 23 ng Disyembre sa ganap na 8:30 ng gabi. Masasabi ko na habang
dumadaan ang panahon, parami na ng parami ang dumadalo sa simbang gabing ito.
Bago magsimula ang misa, merong mga hinandang presentation ang mga choir. At
pagkatapos naman ng homily ni Fr. Zaki Parra tatawag siya ng mga gustong
magshare… yung mga tipo ng istorya na may kaugnayan sa diwa ng Pasko.

You’ve read my blogs about my poems for Daddy and Nanay.
Pero di ko pa nakukwento kung anong mga nangyari at anu-ano ang mga natutunan ko from
that experience.

Please read my letter for a friend who will surely miss her
dad this Christmas. As you read my letter below, I ask you to pray for her to
have more strength, joy and peace of mind and heart and most of all to heal her
from the wounds of sorrow.

Hi.

Musta? I know we can’t chat that long kasi nasa work ka….
I just want to share to you my most memorable Christmas. So read this letter
pag meron kang time.

It was 2005, after one year working pwede na akong
magbakasyon. Of course, best time to have your annual leave is during Christmas
season. Kaya September pa lang naka file na leave ko. I was so excited. But
things didn’t happen the way I planned it.

Same year late October, I received a news from Manila that Daddy was
diagnosed with leukemia. I decided to take my leave early instead of December.
Lahat ng plano
ko for my first vacation nawala at naiba.

I didn’t expect to see Daddy in that condition when I
arrived home. Yung dating masigla at malusog na katawan naging mahina at payat.
Kalahati ng one month ko I spent it with Daddy and Nanay sa ospital.

By 28^th of November kailangan ko ng bumalik ng Dubai.Buti na
lang at medyo masigla na si Daddy at makakaalis ako ng Pinas nang punung puno
ng pag-asa na gagaling si Daddy.

Two weeks later, 14^th of December nagpaalam na
si Daddy. Hindi ako makauwi kasi nasa process yung employment visa ko at nasa
immigration ang visa ko bukod pa sa kababalik ko lang from vacation.

There are three things I learned from this experience:

First, there will come a time that we want to serve the
Lord but we realized that we are running out of time. Si Daddy three times in a
week siya nagse-serve kay Lord as Lay Minister pero sa tingin niya kulang pa.
Sabi nga niya kung pagagalingin pa siya ibibigay niya buong oras pa niya to
serve God. And if God had granted this miracle malamang lalong magpapatunay si
Daddy sa kadakilaan ni Lord. Pero ganun pa man, talagang nakatakda na yung oras
niya. It turned out na para sa akin pala yung prayer ni Daddy. Pagbalik ko sa
Dubai, I started to say YES to God every time He calls me for service through
SFC. The same day when my Daddy died was our last practice for simbang gabi
choir. Di nila ineexpect na makakaattend pa rin ako. I believed Daddy will be
very happy seeing me serving rather than crying sa higaan ko. December 16
kasama ko ibang bros and sis sa SFC naglilikongkod kay Lord sa simbang gabi.

Second, show your love to others while you still have
time. Say ‘I love you’ to someone while there is still a chance for him/her to
say ‘I love you’ in return. Last minute ni Daddy, sinasabihan ko siya ng I love
you through phone pero di ko na naririnig sagot niya o nakikita kung anong
reaksyon niya. Kaya ngayon everytime na nagkakausap kami ni Nanay, I’ll make
sure na sinasabihan ko siya na mahal ko siya. Pati na rin kaming magkakapatid,
kahit puro lalaki kami nagsasabihan na rin kami ng “I love you’.

Lastly, in times of crisis and trials do not allow your
emotions over power yourself. For others, I may have enough reasons not to be
happy that Christmas. Pero di ko na pinatagal yung kalungkutan bagkus nagtiwala
pa rin ako kay Lord. I asked for His blessings and sense out His message for
me. Siguro kung nagmaktol ako di ko makikita yung direction na pinapakita Niya
sa akin. Simula nuon, lalong naging malinaw sa akin ang plano Niya.

Nakapag asawa ako this year and I believed this just part
of His plan…. guaranteeing that there’s a brighter future ahead. 20 weeks nang
pregnant si Irene and I also believe that by this time God is giving me a
chance to continue the love that I experienced from Daddy and Nanay. Time ko na
para maging Daddy.

Christmas 2005 was indeed a memorable one. Though painful
but it turned out to be an eye opener, a blessing. I really treasure this
experience as gift from Daddy and God.

I may not be in the right position to tell you or ask you
on what to do about your sufferings for you are the only one knows the condition
of your mind and heart. But one thing for sure, God is at work… open your heart
and mind… allow Him to turn your sufferings to blessings … just believe and
trust Him… wag na pong pahabain ang kalungkutan kasi di mo makikita blessings
Niya.

Inspired with Mary’s reply to Angel Gabriel - I am a
servant of the Lord, be done to me according to God’s will.

Dito lang kami lagi. God bless.

Edmund

May others experience the LOVE of CHRIST this season through
you.

Merry Christmas to all.

- From Fajut Family

Almost a year and a half I posted my last blog. Within that time frame,
the “world of blogging” had developed so much that I believed I was left behind
at the starting line of a fun run fixing my shoe lace. This development had
caused Mr. Webster to update his dictionaries because, just like computers,
this blogging had created new terminologies or added new meaning to a term. And
man, I need to cope up. Ano yung permalink?

Checking out some blog sites, I noticed some topics which are very
famous for discussion. Filipino bloggers had made their sites a modern time
Kalayaan (newsletter of the Katipunan and also later on used by a militant
group for their newsletter) in which modern time katipuneros nail down their foes
through creative writing. I’ll give you samples:

1. Long time tele-nobela of Philippine politics;
2. About this fashionista turned into a Mahaderang Balyena.; and,
3. Katipuneros were too busy about a scene of a popular American TV series that said something bad about “some med schools in the  Philippines;

For international blogs: dollar and the US
economy,Iraq and the  US led war,  terrorism and the US,  Britney and  US,  etc.

But not all bloggers are issue oriented. And I find interest on those blogs
that reflect one’s inner feeling that inspire other people: sharing their
experiences of highs and lows, personal journal of soul searching and life
transformation …. a new form of evangelization. And in this kind of blog that I
place my work….. sus ma-emote kasi.

I went back reading my previous blogs…

Then inside, I heard something…

“bakit di ka na nagsusulat?….”

“po?”

“share it…”

“eh, tinatamad po ako magsulat.”

I closed my eyes… smiled

Then I say my prayer…

“opo, mag-susulat po.”

Missed me?

Hehehe… I missed myself too… (huh? Labo noh!)… just been too busy these past three weeks. So after being sick for several days (thanks to my archi-nurse for taking good care of me… hehehe), I think it’s time for me to take some rest.

Need some break! Need some vacation!

Please dont greet me yet… it’s not my birthday and July is two more monts of waiting. But honestly I am very excited… coz I’m planning to celebrate my birthday in Manila.

YES! VACATION.. WAHU! (sana lang payagan ako ng mga amo…huhuhuhu)

Didudiduo…

There are too many reasons to be excited: visit Kuya Erning in Thailand, Kuya Ervin in Bicol, meet Irene’s parents in Pangasinan, then to Baguio (at last!), plus Boracay with all barkada in Tundo (sarap nito!). This will be one of my best birthdays.

Huli kong naaalala…

… nang pinupunasan mo si Daddy

… nagbibiruan pa po kayo na parang walang dapat ipag-alala

Sabi pa nga ni Daddy sa akin…

“Ganyan ang hanapin mo, tulad ng nanay mo.”

Ilang buwan pa lang naman po tayo di nagkikita

Pero kahit papano nagkakausap sa tuwina

Ngunit sa aking kaarawan

Nais ko po sana … tayo’y magkasama

Nais ko po sanang kayo’y mayakap muli

At damhin ang bigt ng aking dibdib

Dala-dala noon pa ng si itay mawala

At hirap ng di ko man lang siya nakita

Ngayong Hulyo ako po ay uuwi

Ibibigay ko po ang aking balikat para sa inyong dantayan

At aking yakap para sa inyong kanlungan

Nanay, sa aking kaarawan ito ang aking hiling

Mayakap ka muli at makapiling.

Hello everyone. Hope you’re all doing well today.

For all those who spent time reading my last blog (yes it was my first official blog … at last!), thank you very much. Especially to my suki… JANEY and KC. Yo d bes! And to others …. Most especially to all busy busy-han MMT … thanks for your comments. JC rules!

By now perhaps you already got some idea about my daddy. Sayang nga my mahal ko didn’t get a chance to meet him. Anyway I believe naman that he prayed for this .. that I will find someone that will be with me .. like he had with my nanay … lakas talaga ni dad kay Lord. Hey wait! This is not yet the blog for irene…. Hehehehehe… next time na lang po mahal ko …

Ok … here we go…

This one goes to my nanay Ligaya.

While reading my poem for Daddy… I suddenly realized what if nanay got a friendster account? What should it be looked like? How many “Who’s viewed me?”?

Sorry nanay…. You know naman your bunso…. Weird mag-isip… hehehehehe

Ligaya’s Testimonials

Edmund | 03/29/2006

Di ko alam kung paano ko pasasalamatan

Ang mabait na inang aking kinamulatan

Sa pagmamahal kanyang inilaan

Kay daddy, sa ‘min, at sa mga kaibigan

Bilang kaibigan matutuwa ka sa kanya

Sapagkat napagaling niyang magpatawa

Di man siya marunong magdeliver ng joke

Sa kanyang kilos … ay naku… solve!

Bilang ina wala ako masabi

Madadama ang pagmamahal sa bawat sandali

Kahit gano kahirap sa pagkayod

Basta sa mga anak di nakakaramdam ng pagod

Bilang asawa di siya nagkulang

Bagkus sobra pa sa inaasahan

Si daddy hinihintay tuwing uuwi

Pagsisilbihan para ang pagod ay mapawi

Di ko alam kung ano ang kinabukasan

Kung di rin dito sa pamilyang pinagmulan

Dahil kay nanay ako’y namulat

Na ang buhay may pag-asa kahit hirap at salat

Sa’yo po nanay ako’y nagpapasalamat

Sa buhay naming ito na di mo sinumbat

Pinagkaisa’t binuklod niyo po kaming apat

Sa pamamagitan ng pagmamahal na walang katapat

Miss you na po nanay

Maybe you too have some interesting things about your parents…. Most especially with your mom…

Whatever it is… start saying to her how proud you are with her love.

M.Y.M.P.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY.

It’s me again… please forgive me with my endless question with this so called BLOGGING WORLD…. as usual… playing as innocent dummy (hey is there a book “Blog for dummies”?).

Here’s my question: Can I also post (upgrade, publish … or whatever term you call it) poem as blog? Poem such as this one:

Si Mangpol At Ang Kanyang Tunay Na Ligaya

Lumuwas ng Maynila para makipagsapalaran

Namasukan bilang waiter sa isang kainan

Ang binatang si Mangpol na taga-Romblon

Nagsikap mag-aral kahit panggabi pa ‘yon

Napagkatiwalaan sa kanyang trabahong pinapasukan

Kaya naman ang binatang si Mangpol ang nauutusan

Pumupunta ng Divisoria para mamalengke

Paninda’y araw araw iba’t ibang putahe

Sa dalas ng kanyang pamimili kanyang nasisilayan

Isang dalagang tsinita sa kabilang tindahan

Dahil sa kanyang simpleng kagandahan

Ang binatang si Mangpol nakipagkaibigan

Ligaya ang pangalan ng masayahing dalaga

Na taimtim na nagdarasal ng kanyang nobena

Na ipagkaloob ng Diyos ang tamang mapapangasawa

Makakasama sa pagbuo ng isang Kristiayanong pamilya

Humihiling ng hudyat mula sa itaas

Na kung sino man magbigay ng pulang rosas

Sa nalalapit na okasyon at sa tamang oras

Mula sa kanyang mga manliligaw sumusuyo ng madalas

Dumating ang araw ng okasyon na hinihintay

Ni isang manliligaw niya walang nagbigay

Nang pulang rosas para sa kanya ialay

Inakalang wala sa kanila mamahaling taglay

Ngunit ang ibinigay ng binatang si Mangpol

Isang greeting kard para sa dalaga’y iukol

Pagbati mula sa puso na ang larawang nakapaloob

Isa pa lang pulang rosas na sa kanya ipinagkaloob

Tunay nga ang Diyos sa kanilang dalangin ay tumugon

Sapat na buhay at mga anak sila’y nagkaroon

Apat na lalaki tulong-tulong sa pagbabangon

Nang isang kristiyanong pamilya tiwala sa Panginoon

Dumating ang araw ang bawat anak ay lumisan na

Kanya kanyang buhay paghahanda sa sariling pamilya

Dada-dala’y mga gintong aral natutunan sa ama’t ina

Pamarisan ang pamilya ng pamumuhay na tama

Isang araw sa buwan ng Oktubre

Mabigat na karamdaman kay Mangpol nadiskubre

Unti-unti’y pumapayat ang dating masiglang katawan

Mula sa sakit sa dugo na kanyang nararamdaman

Mula noon labas pasok na sa pagamutan

Kasama si Ligaya na hindi siya iniwan

Si Mangpol dumadalangin para sa kanyang kalusugan

At makapaglingkod pa sa Diyos kung pahihintulutan

“Panginoon, kung nanaisin Niyo pa po,

Pagkalooban pa ako ng buhay dito sa mundo,

Iaalay ko pa rin natitira buhay paglilingkod sa’yo,

Bukas po sana pagalingin Ninyo ako.”

Ito ang huling panalangin niya ng gabing iyon

Pagka’t kinabukasan sa banal na oras ng hapon

Si Manpol ay humarap na sa kanyang Panginoon

Handa sa pagtatagpong ito mula pa noon

Tunay na kaligayahan kanyang naranasan

Literal nga na asawa niya Ligaya ang ngalan

Maging sa pamilya na kanyang iniwan

Buklod ng pagmamahalan at tunay na kaligayahan

I love you po daddy…

(This is my poem for my dad – Napoleon Fajut (1940-2005). I wrote this just this morning 20 March 2006. I could still remember those days we had together at the hospital. I never seen him worried about his condition…. same smile…same laughter…never thought it would be the last time I will see him… smiling and laughing…maybe that’s why I didn’t get a chance to attend his funeral… to keep his smile in my mind… full of hope and dedication…full of love and true joy)

Hi…

First of all thanks for spending time reading my first (unofficial) blog. Acknowledgement to all those who made their comments – JC RULES!!!

As promised here is my first (official) blog…

After “my first attempt to write a blog”… again I came to the point of what should I write?

This “blogging” idea — or whatever you call it — is really interesting. Such interest that always pushes me to a “HEY WRITE SOMETHING!” pressure. But to be honest … I don’t know for how many times I tried to start a topic but ended with nothing.

It is very hard to start a new-unique-interesting-achuchu (call it what you want) subject matter. … why can’t I compose a new one?

This made me think…

I wonder how God did His plan of creation. Was He also in a dilemma of what to create? Or he really knew it even before “the first day of creation”? Isn’t that God realized that He needs to create man and woman during the process of creation?

This sounds interesting… didudiduo…

Imagine this… GOD is so powerful that he can create anything that He wanted.. do whatever He wanted to do… destroy if He thinks it’s necessary.

If someone became so abusive, God can punish as well….

But… He created us in His own image and likeness… He created us because of LOVE…. HE IS REALLY IN LOVE.

When someone gave an appreciation on my last blog I felt so happy and fulfilling… what more God’s feeling if we appreciate His creation.

This is more interesting…

Now I got motivated! Thank you Lord…

I can now write a blog…. Hmmmmmm

Can you help me choose a topic? Please… like BLOG LOVE… BLOG TO LOVE YOU….. ETO ANG REPLY KO SA BLOG MO – MAHAL KA NI LORD!!! …. or suggest anything… please…

Ok… sorry for taking your time (again)… but I really appreciate your effort to read this another unofficial blog of mine…. Though it’s unofficial (again – because I haven’t started to write about topic yet), I hope I made some point here…

Next time (ulit) promise….

Hey this is my first blog!!!

But first how do you really pronounce it? (blog as in blög…. blag…. Blug….) perhaps depends on how your tongue been molded by your ethnical local and native ecosystem.

Hahahahaha….. (hey can I use this here?)

Any way… hmmm… still thinking of what topic to post here. As my first blog, it should be something worth reading for because some human beings there (like you) will start (wasting their time) reading this professionally motivated self affirmed blog (blag .. whatever!!!)

Ok… didudiduo…. Hmmmm… aha!

Isn’t nice to start with objectives? YAH! (uy coño!… yah! Something!)

Alright … OBJECTIVES….. (tententenen)…. But wait…. There were some confusion with the format of how to state your objectives…. I remember my teachers argued with their styles. Some says start with “to be” while others prefer not to use it. Gosh (hahaha… coño nanaman… psst! No dirty! Hahahahaha….but seems not a right expression to use … ok let’s delete… Gosh). Should I blame the educational system?(sounds good… nice topic for my next blog.. watduyutink?) Nah!

Listen! I DECIDED NOT TO START WITH OBJECTIVES… period! or even Subject, Terminologies, Bibliography and footnotes with fictitious names and references, charts with inconsistent year and references, etc.

This should be a free style waka-waka writing which your English teacher won’t allow you to do in your theme papers and other technical papers. So I should not worry about sppeling or gramared… no more red marks and comments like “need reinforcement” and “please re-submit”… YAHU!

So therefore, I could write anything what I want to. Like – aosdfhoawdr&^%1829&*9h0q2eutrqwe t3m45-] a0sdufm e-34u5 vq2345 - literally anything what my fingers hit in the keyboard… as-0dald-vqw3r2m34…. Hahahahaha… this is fun!

Welcome to the world of blogging! Am I right? Blogging? Is it an accepted terminology? Who cares… just hit the keyboard bliksim!

Now what? Back to my first problem… what to write here… grrrr… I’m starting to sound like an empty can “clang clanging” without any meaning and like a bird flying without any direction. Hey! (for how many times I used “HEY”.. don’t go back.. don’t worry .. not critical).. maybe an inspirational blog will do. Not bad… something that talks about life, success, family, love (gusto ko ‘to! I love you po mahal ko), work… anything that will inspire the readers (like you .. if you reached reading up to this part well it means you’re really serious to finish my stuff… keep it up …).

Ok … here we go….

L.I.F.E. – Live In Free Environment

S.U.C.C.E.S.S. – Sa Ulo Co Cuto Elis Sa Shampoo

F.A.M.I.L.Y. – Fafa And Mama Injoyed Life Yesterday

L. O. V. E. – is mahal ko (please refer to my friendster… hahahaha.. di kita friend? Add mo ko…)

W.O.R.K. – YOU! back to work!

Inspired after reading? Nyah!

I think that’s enough… if I can’t think of a better subject for my first attempt to post a blog well it’s better to end it this way. So please don’t consider this as my first blog. The second one will be my first blog.. but how come the second one become the second one… so it means my third blog will be my second blog? Ang gulo!

I will try to be more effective and responsible next time.

Anyhow… thanks for your time reading the above. I really appreciate the effort.

I should end this with something worth-reading at least just to make this first (WHATEVER!) blog not senseless… hmmmmm…. Well…

GOD LOVES YOU AND THAT’S TRUE…

That makes sense.
