How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.I love thee to the depth and breadth and heightMy soul can reach, when feeling out of sightFor the ends of Being and ideal Grace.I love thee to the level of everyday'sMost quiet need, by sun and candle-light.I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.I love thee with the passion put to useIn my old griefs, and...

Solo jeepney ride, that is.Yesterday, a little before noon, my son and I undertook a grand experiment...well not that grand to be honest. In the grand scheme of things it's probably mediocre. Still, useful lessons ought to be learned, so we, or at least I, thought it to be a worthwhile endeavor to teach my son how to ride a jeepney by himself.Actually, he taught himself. I wasn't there with him. If...

If in my deep slumberI would awaken,And find my worldAnd life’s dreamsTo be forsaken,Let me hold onto my credenceOf someday I’ll find you home.Back to where my heart is longing,Ease my heart that’s breaking,Stop the tears falling,And come back home.If by chance we meetAnd you see that I am confused,Put a stop to my confusionAnd carry me home.Destiny’s already wovenWe’ve got to keep believingThat ours...

Way Back Into LoveHugh Grant Featuring Haley BennettI've been living with a shadow overheadI've been sleeping with a cloud above my bedI've been lonely for so longTrapped in the past, I just can't seem to move onI've been hiding all my hopes and dreams awayJust in case I ever need em again somedayI've been setting aside timeTo clear a little space in the corners of my mindAll I want to do is find...

Just a repost. You never know who might notice.Anyone here interested in purchasing or leasing a plot of commercial land located along Commonwealth Ave. in Quezon City? It's my father's property, and it has a lot area of 2,844 sqm., with a number of residential improvements. The frontage is a bit on the small side, at 14 m., but it directly faces Commonwealth Ave.The lot has been on the market for...

The summer air:saps my strengthI sit in my chair.Yes. That's ...

Bounded by the thoughts of what once wasI lingered, filled with emotions that’ll never come to passTrapped in a time I thought won't ever lastSilenced by the memories of the past.Within these walls, I blindly walkNot knowing when or where to go. Shadows of doubt had loomed so free, Trying to fill the void that once was me. In this emptiness, I quietly lay, Waiting and hoping for time to make haste...

Last night, out of the blue, I received a message on my Facebook account.It was her.My first girlfriend, whom I last heard from 19 years ago.I look at her profile picture. She still looks exactly the same as I remember her. Apparently she's doing well...and not surprisingly, she has her own family now.Frankly, I don't know how to react.I must have made an impression on her, since she remembered me...

JULIET:'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,Nor arm, nor face, nor any other partBelonging to a man. O, be some other name!What's in a name? that which we call a roseBy any other name would smell as sweet;So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,Retain that dear perfection which he owesWithout that title. Romeo, doff thy...

I couldn't help but chuckle to myself when someone told me that some union members where planning to change the name of their union supposedly "because the union name has no credibility". Hello? How can a union name "not have any credibility"? It's just a name.Sometimes I can't help but be surprised how shallow some people can be. It is the officers and members of a union which give it its credibility,...

This is one of those posts which are about nothing in particular. I felt like posting an update, but for the life of me, nothing really blog-worthy seems to be popping into my head at this very moment.I'm not saying that there's nothing going on. I guess there is, but at this point in time I guess I'd rather not blog about it since it's a hanging issue, and I don't think its a good idea to preempt...

Your action may be required.MEMO : TO ALL EMPLOYEESEffective immediatelyDRESS CODE1. It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes, a Giorgio Armani suit or carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a pay raise.2. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may...

Am I?Too sensitive for my own good?Maybe I am, and I just haven't realized it.Maybe I kept to myself for so long now, that I've forgotten how to take other people's thoughts and actions in stride;Maybe I've always distanced myself from everyone else, and now I'm not sure how to be close to anyone anymore;Maybe I've been doing things my own way for the longest time now, and I'm no longer used to people...

Hard disk space that is.I have a total of 2 GB of Network-attached storage, consisting of a Linksys NAS200 with two 500 GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 SATA drives, and a 1 TB Seagate FreeAgent Desk connected to the NAS200 via USB.It isn't enough.Linksys NAS200.Seagate FreeAgent Desk.I bought the NAS200 with its two drives about a year and a half ago. The FreeAgent is only about four months old. Between...

I stare into the distancethinking of what once was...I reach out to you with my thoughtsbut you were nowhere.I listen to my beating heartthe heart that still beats for you...I strain to hear your heartbeatbut I hear only silence.I remember the warmth of your touchthe soft caress that once gave me repose...I try to hold on to youbut you have long since gone.Then there is a hollow emptinessa bleak void...

I wonder if this is as good as it gets.Sustaining one's enthusiasm for one thing or another isn't always easy, especially for things that are long term.It's like being excited about paying premiums for your insurance policy the first few quarters. Then you realize you'll be doing the same thing for more than twenty years until the policy matures, and the enthusiasm is replaced by the grind of the...

The human lifespan is a paradox.It's too long if you live a miserable life, yet too short if you live a happy one, much like six years is too long for a bad President, and too short for a good one.And it doesn't seem to be fair...you spend almost twenty years or so in school, possibly more, filling your head with knowledge supposedly necessary to get you through life, get a job, build up relations,...

Now that the national elections are over, another showdown is looming. The arena, interestingly enough, is my office.My office has two unions. One has been in existence for more than two decades. The other is only nine years old. The older one is recognized by management. The younger one is not...at least as far as for purposes of collective negotiation are concerned.Currently, a petition for certification...

I've been looking forward to seeing this movie for quite a while now, last night I finally got my chance.It was entertaining and action-packed, but to be honest I felt a bit underwhelmed by it.Robert Downey Jr., as in the first movie, made a very convincing Tony Stark, no doubt aided by the fact that Downey in real life possesses quite a lot of the traits that the fictional Tony Stark does, particularly...

Actually the title of this post should be: "Who will I vote for?", but unfortunately, I'm not going to vote.I was deactivated. I skipped voting during the 2004 elections, and when I tried to vote in 2007, for some reason I couldn't find my precinct. That's two consecutive elections that I failed to vote, and now I'm deactivated. While I'm in no way suggesting that the right to vote should be taken...

It's been twice now that I've been asked that question...it's a simple question really: why?I guess they must be right. There has to be a reason. Maybe just because isn't good enough.So here I am, in the comfort of my own home, with no one rushing me, thinking...how to articulate my answer. How to find the right words. Because truth be told, yes, there probably is a reason. Maybe I just haven't made...

Have you ever had one of those days, the kind of the day you're already expecting to be bad...even though you just woke up?I think this is going to be one of those days.Just this morning, an officemate who bought my old clunker of a car, kept calling...several times...on my landline, and on both of my cellphones, while I was taking a dump and taking a shower...when a simple text message will do. Some...

I was never really much of a drinker even in my youth. My peak was way back in college when I could finish off about only about eight beers max, spread over several hours. Fast forward to the present, and on a good day (night) I can only down around four or so, maybe a bottle an hour.I usually just drink for the company, for the laughs, the jokes, the stories. On rare occasions though, I just drink...

I've always thought that I had a relatively good eye when it came to reading people, to sizing them up, figuring out their intentions, gauging their reactions to stuff. On certain occasions though, I find myself flummoxed by some individuals whom I can't seem to read at all, no matter how hard I try. I either get no signals, or pick up mixed signals that I can't seem to interpret.That's all well and...

About a week ago I learned that a colleague's sister succumbed after a long battle with cancer. She doesn't read this blog, but nonetheless I'll extend my condolences to her here. I've been fortunate enough not to have lost a loved one before...I can only imagine her pain and sadness, which, no doubt, has to be great.My prayers and condolences to her and her family.Whenever someone, or a relative...

It would seem that I have been posting entries on my blog more than usual. This typically happens when I have a lot of things on my mind. I'm really not one who likes talking about my thoughts with other people, so blogging is my way of venting, of getting things off my chest.This actually puts me in a disadvantage so to speak, as this blog invariably ends up as a window to my thoughts, thoughts that...

I don't really like being out of the loop. It's not that I need to know everything, because I don't. Sometimes, you just can't help but worry, especially if the person concerned is someone you care about.Aside from worrying about whatever situation it is that's troubling that person, sometimes you can't help but think of all sorts of reasons why you're being shut out. Of course, that may not necessarily...

Several years ago, when I was having some problems with this girl I knew, a law school bud said something which has remained in my head up to this very day. It was nothing profound or melodramatic or anything like that. Matter-of-factly he just said: "Pag nakakaintindi ka na ng babae, babae ka na din." Loosely translated into English, it means "When you start understanding women, you've turned into...
