Water Crisis

This is my latest entry here but my entry here will not tackle my art but the water crisis that our community is facing on. Just give me this time to say what I feel right now and how devastated I am because of this unexpected phenomena. Gracious! It's been four straight days and up to this moment, our community is no water connection at all. People now are so desperate where to get water to drink of and how to cleanse their selves up. Lots of pales and containers were lined on the road just to get water from the fire truck sponsored by our local government. Because of this crisis, many people are very much affected particularly the young ones (babies, toddlers) because of this incident. Who's the one to blame? If we just look around, our world is full of natural resources that God provided us but we didn't use it wisely. Instead, we are too abusive and greedy just for our own sake. We have clean rivers before, but look at it now, it's messy, dirty and not healthy to drink of. And now, we're crying our hearts out and begging for this precious water but we didn't take it to care before. This is just a consequence we need to pay because of our negligence to Mother Earth. It's just a simple lesson that we should bear in mind that nothing lasts forever, even an endless road and an everlasting life has also a finish line. Let's just pray for the better that it's not too late to fix these problems we're facing. And when the day comes that all things come back to normal, I just hope that we've learned our lesson and make a promise that we will be thankful and we should take care and cherish all the blessings that our Creator has given to us.

You’re my favorite (Gin) King/ Weekend Warrior

It’s already been two weeks since the news circulated all over the internet particularly on the sports page of the newspaper, news sports program and PBA Sports that Sunday Salvacion is not a Gin king anymore. At first, I don’t have any idea about the trade issue because I haven’t received any texts from my friends in Ginebra. Then I opened my Facebook account and looked at Itay Sunday’s (Yes, we fondly called him Itay and her wife as Inay Chin because they treated their fans as one of their “anakis”...) wall/ profile in FB and I read some wall posts about the trade issue. Most of his fans were deeply saddened on his departure in Ginebra and others were saying good luck in his new team which is the Barako Bull. They assured Itay that whatever happens, their support is 101% guaranteed. According to some news, Itay’s contract in Ginebra was already expired and the management didn’t renew his contract and decided to bring him up in Barako Bull. When I heard this news, it may sound...

Resist Their Attempts to “Ground” You: Embrace Your Wicked Self

 If you've spent your life as a misunderstood outcast and always challenged traditional notions of good and evil, yet you are still an empathetic and deeply compassionate soul, you are a variant of "Elphaba Thropp." Wicked is based on the Broadway musical, story of the Witches of Oz: Glinda the Good and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of The West was originally adapted from a novel, The Wizard of Oz , but reimagined. Both witches explore their complex friendship until some twist of events leads to Elphi’s vilification. Wicked is a beloved work of art for a dear friend of mine, who has shared how it profoundly changed his life and perspectives. When he encouraged me to watch the movie, I agreed, even though I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. The strength of the movie lies in the performances of the lead actors -- the chemistry between Ariana Grande (Galinda/Glinda) and Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba/Elphi) serves as the emotional core of the story. The visuals and produ...

The beauteous of Ilocos

I remember when I was in high school, I wrote in my journal that someday I'll visit Ilocos and explore the authenticity of Sur and Norte. My mother told me everything she experienced when she had a trip there with her co-teachers many years back. I wasn't able to join them because I have a class then and I guess, it was just exclusive for the COOP members of P. Guevara only. So, kayo na! :D A piece of throwback for me, eh! :) Just two weeks ago, my friends, a special chubby chef and I toured around Ilocos Sur/ Norte for three fun-filled days. Kuya Danny of Peter Pan Tours kindly assisted us throughout our tour and he was jaunty enough on answering our questions, even the stupid ones. :D For a price of 3,150php/ head (3D2N hotel accommodation stay- brunch and dinner not included), it wasn't bad for a budget traveler like us. :) We just brought our pocket lucre and our travel things for our much-awaited trip. ;) Day 1: The Bantay Bell Tower (built in 1951.)
