Yuppie L.L. At Work

Yuppies, you wanna see how your L.L. works on core duties????


Here's an exclusive peek into the worklife of a core member.


TADAAAAAAH!!!!



Work station in Amici Megamall


Sinama ko sa (I included in the) pic ang (the) binder, planner and phone. Para naman maniwala kayong nagratrabaho ako... erm, kami. (So that you'll believe that I... erm, we actually work.) Hahahahahaha! =)


More sessions like this as the weekend draws near! Yummm! Oh, rather, yeeeeey! Hahaha! =D

All Hail, Dale!

I'm sure almost everybody would have heard, read or watched about the EDSA-Makati bus bombing last Tuesday, 25 January 2011.


For the benefit of those who haven't, read it here, Inquirer Online.

First news team on the scene was from RPN, composed of cameraman Abet Sy, Assistant Cameraman Ruel Sevilla, and news correspondent and my nephew Dale De Vera. They were on their way back to the office when they saw a bus stalled on EDSA Buendia Northbound lane. When they saw that the windows and windshield were cracked, they thought it was a holdup. When they got nearer the scene, they saw smoke, blood and wounded passengers on the sidewalk. 


They decided to help out. Thoughts of getting a big break from covering this incident were put aside. They decided to be God's people. They decided to be the heart of the Filipino. They decided to be Pilipino para sa kapwa Pilipino (Filipinos for Filipinos).


(Read Dale's blog entry about it, A 15minute of Fame.)


Dale, I'm proud of what your team has done. When nobody was courageous, kind and  loving enough to help those poor victims, you three were. Lagi mong tatandaan, ang kabutihan ay kadakilaan. (Always remember that kindness is greatness.)


=======================================


And because of this incident, I am still very very praning (paranoid) when riding the bus, especially when I learned that bus was biyaheng (going to) SM Fairview. Waaaaaaa! 


And the name of the driver is Maximo Peligro (maximum peril)?!?!?!? You got to be kidding me! But then again, seriously.

Inner Peace

I got this from a link shared by my friend, Alou.


Some signs and symptoms of inner peace:
* A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experiences.
* An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment.
* A loss of interest in judging other people.
* A loss of interest in judging self.
* A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others.
* A loss of interest in conflict.
* A loss of the ability to worry.
* Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation.
* Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature.
* Frequent attacks of smiling.
* An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.
* An increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.

10 out of 12. Not bad. I think. =)


Paranoid pa rin kasi ako when it comes to interpreting actions of others, especially those who are really close to me. I don't care (e-e-e-e-air) too much if it's other people.


I'm a worrywart -- not in the bad, negative sense. I worry if people are safe, I worry if things are ok with family and friends. Counted ba yon? Basta, sabi worry eh, so yes, I worry talaga.


Try it! Do a self-evaluation. =) Nice to know if you're peaceful or not. =) At least you can work out being peaceful if you're like 0% peaceful di ba? Hehehe. =D


Thanks, Alou, for this. Extend my thanks to Ms. Etey also. =)

They thought we were going for the Cullen look. Nyahahaha! Oh well, hindi. Hindi lang talaga nagkasya ang damit. $#|+!!! Hahaha! =))

Harry Potter Coolness!!!

Was with writer's block for quite some time. 

And it's Harry Potter who breaks the spell!!!!!

Got this last night from Ria's Tumblr. =)

OKAY, TRUST ME ON THIS:

CALL THE NUMBER +12674365109.

JUST DO IT.

If you’re from the Philippines, with Globe you’ll need an initial balance of over PhP20.00, and you’ll burn PhP10.44, but if you’re a true HP fan, you will love it. 

First few times, you might get the busy message, but keep on trying. IT IS WORTH IT.

Seriously, trust me on this :D

a friend did it. it was awesome haha.

I tried it! ULTIMATE COOLNESS! Mine cost around > P25 though. Worth pa rin! Harry Potter ruuuules!!! Hahaha! =)

Will share an audio after sometime. Try nyo muna.

Tomorrow's the day!!!!! Can't hardly wait!!!!!

Malakas ba ang imagination mo?

Oo sobra. Sometimes to a fault. Hahaha. Baket?

Go, shoot! =D

Mapagpasensya ka bang tao?

I am. =) Pasensyosa akong tao either towards things, events or people. Pero syempre, like anyone, may hangganan din naman. Wag lang abusuhin, wag lang sagarin. Minsan kasi may mga taong nanadya porke't alam nila na pagpapasensyahan mo sila or may mga bagay na wala na talagang patutunguhan or iuusad pa -- yan, yang yung mga instances na nauubos talaga pisi ko. Pero, yes, generally, I am patient. =)

Go, shoot! =D

Paano kung isang araw ay mawala sa'yo ang taong pinahahalagahan mo? Kakayanin mo ba?

Bigat nun ah.... Mahirap kayanin. Mahirap mag-move on. Several months siguro or several years. But I guess, I will have no choice but to overcome the loss. Pero syempre, lahat naman yata tayo pinagdarasal na hindi mawala yung mga taong important sa atin. Kung mawala man, sana hindi biglaan. Sana hindi rin in a painful way.

Go, shoot! =D

Pano ka magalit?

Naku, depende. Minsan di ako iimik, minsan raratratin kita. Minsan silent tears, minsan I bawl. I can forgive in minutes, I can forgive in years. Basta I forgive... but I never forget.

Go, shoot! =D

Are you content with your life?

A bit. I still need to find a stable job. I want to settle down and have a family of my own. Don't get me wrong, even if I'm just a bit contented, I am happy. <3 I believe that's what's important. =)

Go, shoot! =D

Ano ang pinakaayaw mong ugali?

Inconsiderate. User. Untrustworthy. Unfaitful.

Go, shoot! =D

Are you loyal to your partner?

Super! =) Since I want him to be loyal to me, it's just but right that I be loyal to him too. =)

At hindi ba yun naman ang tama at dapat? =D

Go, shoot! =D

Will you go out with me? ;-)

It depends who you are. Hahaha! =)

Go, shoot! =D
