ill be coming back home...

well this it.. few hours from now, i will be leaving this room. this room that has been part of my US life for the past three months. it was an experience na i will treasure for the rest of my life. an experience that i never asked to my God. but He gave it to me. despite of all the challenges and hindrances that ive been through here i am, standing still.

i thank my Lord God for this opportunity that came my way. i am so grateful and thankful to Him. this will be part of my life. all the memories that i experienced here will be forever.

iba ung feeling. nalulungkot ako kasi lalayo ako sa lugar na napalapit at naging parte na rin ng buhay ko. ewan ko.. weird.. attached na rin cguro ako sa ganitong pamumuhay. gusto kong bumalik someday dito. sa lupain ni uncle sam.

itong kwartong ito ang naging saksi sa lahat ng nangyayari sa kin dito sa ibang lupain. dito ko nakitang buo ang grupong kinabibilangan ko. dito ko naranasan na mamuhay ng malayo sa pamilya (kung my pamilya pa ba akong matatawag, i dont know). dito ko naranasan ang umiyak. naging saksi sa lahat ng aking dasal at panalangin. ang daming pangyayari sa buhay ko na naging parte ang dalawang kwarto sa unit na tinutuluyan ko.

bukas, i will be back to Manila. same environment as before. same issues are before. but im preparing for a worst scenario. hindi ko alam. im trying to be cerebral and be happy at all times. but those people around me wont let me. i dont know what theyre problems are. im trying to be nice to everybody but geez, nagiging makasalanan ako dahil sa mga taong nakapaligid sa kin.

pag uwi ko sa pinas, i want a break. i need a rest. a silent place. to unwind. to think. to recharge. feel that i was so low.

well, i think i need a reconnection with God. Ciao..

excess energy..

wala na naman itong post ko na ito. i just felt na dapat mag lie low ako ng konti. parang sobra sobrang energy ung nilalabas ko araw araw. na nagiging OA na ung isang bagay, well hindi naman ganun ka OA pero just same effect. kailangan ko rin sigurong matameme muna para na rin sa sarili. sobrang saya ko lang sa mga nangyayari sa akin. sobra sobra rin cguro ako mag exert ng energy sa lahat ng bagay. na gusto ko lahat alive and masaya. pero time to make a break. be serious and konting lungkot muna. time to reflect sa lahat ng nangyayari sa kin. :)

feeling lost..

pinuntahan ko ung isa kong account na blog. this blog was so much different from my other blog. in terms of content. feeling ko nawala na ung sincerity sa blog na ito. nakain na ng komercyalismo. maybe, im not really sure, of closing this blog. nakasama ko rin naman ito sa loob ng isang taon. or maybe one step is to bring back its sincerity. bahala na. tagal ko na rin namang walang post d2. dami ng nangyari na wala d2. marami na ring nakaka alam ng site ko na sa totoo lang, ayokong malaman nila.

godbless sa lahat!

Mp3 slash Video Player

bough a new mp3 slash video player two weeks ago. i saw this one before in best buy but not interested. and after months of looking and going back, and since im not going to buy anything that time, aside from being an implusive buyer i am, i got this player when i go back home.

it was like i bought an Ipod Nano in a much cheaper price. beside Nano dont have a video player but this player does. (you just need to convert into .mov extension). so far so good. im okay with it. if youre planning to buy an Ipod Nano, i suggested that try this product first. it was really the same as Ipod. functions etc. The one i got is a 4GB.

read the specs below:

• Sleek, thin design with large 1.8” TFT color screen for easy viewing
• Strong alloy back casing provides excellent durability and scratch resistance
• Simple to use, backlit controls for fast device interface navigation
• User replaceable and rechargeable Lithium Ion battery for up to 20 hours of battery life (Battery Life Based on Continuous, Standard Playback, 128 Kb MP3 file)
• Features microSD™ expansion slot for additional memory capacity
• Supports SanDisk TrustedFlash and Gruvi content cards
• Digital FM tuner, on-the-fly FM recording**, and voice recording

SCREENSHOTS..

so? what do you think? did i make the right choice? besides, there are two units of Nano in the house, why do i need to have a same unit, ayt?

Spider Man 3 - I Cried..

today is sunday, 13th day in the month of May year 2007. second weekend since my team mates flew back in Manila. Josh and I decided to watch the SpiderMan 3 in Loews Cinema. i woke up around 9:20 am and then after preparing myself for today's "gala", i called Josh and told him that im good to go. so first thing we did was to go to the Dining Area and have some light breakfast since we were not eating sausages and scrambled egss (oh please.. not anymore).. after that went back at the room and packed my bag. so were ready to go! first stop? Bus Station to Lakeforest Bus Station, were going to ride 2 buses going to the Cinema. But if were going to take the cab, if will only take us 15 mins and we're going to be there. but since we are now taking the bus, we need to ride two different route of buses. Bus # 54 going to LakeForest and Bus # 44 going back to Rockville. Bus Fare - $1.25 back and forth for the two bus. Taxi $10-$15 plus tip.

with my camera inside my bag, what will you expect? im loving myself again. :D

taking the first bus to the next station took our time for about 15-20 mins. and then the next bus according to the time board will be 11:03. and were going to wait for another 15 minutes or so. and there are lot of black and mexican people in the area. so i decided to use my cap ( am i hiding my face from them? nah!)..

and after we hopped at the next bus (BUS # 54 going back to Rockville), it took us another 15-20 minutes to get in the place. and guess what? the front side of the building of the cinema facing the road was not the entrance! geez! there are lot of doors but also a lot of sign telling you "DO NOT ENTER". so we walk and we read a sign that there is an entrance at the parking area. so we entered the parking area and after 10 steps, we saw the entrance.

at the cinema lobby, ( were actually going to watch meet the robinsons and spidey, but since there is a delay in the bus arrival time, we were not able to catched up the showing time of the robinsons, so we went down on the first level and bought our tickets for the Spiderman 3, showing time was 12:05. and i was so hungry, remember i only have 2 breads and one glass of milk for breakfast, so we decided to find a place where we could eat, and unfortunately there is no one in the area that we like to eat. so i just had a venti size of caramel frap at starbucks and joshua bought a hotdog sandwich in the cinema.

we watched Spiderman with less than 30 people inside the Theather 18. so many people huh? well. its much cheaper when you watch in the morning rather than watching in the afternoon or evening. the $7.50 will changed to $11 per person. good thing we watched in the mid day. :)

and this is what made me cry. hehehe.. when harry died. i was in tense when they were fighting their enemies, since they are back to normal bestfriends, helping each other - i was afraid that one of them will die (someone preempted us that someone will die) and again, i was afraid that it will be harry. and when harry died, i felt the feeling again of losing a friend. there's a big impact of it to myself. friends are my family. so i dont wanna loose them. and when harry is about to die, my eyes are releasing its water droplets. and i cant control it. wahahaha.. its just that i dont really like the feeling. it hit me hard. so i just cried and i hate it. i hate that peter lose his bestfriend. :(

so after the movie had ended, i asked josh if we could drop by at the bookstore to buy 2 books for my officemate. and since i have my camera, why not maximize the use of it?



bad thing is, the book that im looking for is not available. so i just ordered it and will be back after a week. they're gonna order it for me. :D

while walking through the pathway going to the bus station, the Bus # 54 passed by. waaaaah...oh why oh why! so it just passed by and we waited for another 30 mins for the next bus. sigh. its just a few meters away from us. huhuhu.

if we have a car, were just going to take the highway and then turn right and tada! we were at the hotel, but since we are taking the bus (again), we need to see some part of the city. hehee..

so while waiting for the bus, i asked josh to click the shutter of my camera.


and im guessing why the cars passing by (most of them) look at us. i don't know the reason why. either a girl or boy who drive the car, they will give a look at us (or just me? hahaha.. kidding!)

pedestal - soaring high

and now they are really gone

its so hard when some of your companions are leaving. you used to be with them in a foreign land for two months and then in an instant, in a matter of seconds they are gone.

it felt so different right now. unlike the feeling minutes ago when they were still here. we knew that they were leaving and we will be left here but again "it never came into my mind" that it will be like this.

i dont like the feeling. now, im asking - is it a really good choice to be left in here? i can say yes, i prayed for it to happened, and my God granted me this. so i should be thankful for that.

I miss them. Just take care and godbless your trip guys!

so many things to catch up

there are so many things in my life that this blog missed. my bolinao entry has not yet been made and it happened 3 months ago. then i prepared my papers when my superior told me that i will be heading to our HQ office here in Gaithersburg. then my first ride on a plane and thank God it wasnt bad. as in super! two thumbs up for Cathay Pacific. 8 out of 10 for my two Cathay Flights.

sigh. and now were going back in our country. i already packed my two luggages and i need more space. so many clothes that i bought here. so many chocolates.

ill be coming back and i need a break. i have plan of going to Malaysia but the time is not yet definite when. all i have is my money that i saved from my allowance here.

thanks god for all of the opportunities that has been happening in my life. i never imagined that i will experience all these things. its just that im so thankful and grateful to my Creator. eventhough i am a sinful creation. well, i hope to be in the right path again. i just thank my Lord God for standing beside me, always. He's my bestfriend. He never leave me. Right Lord God?
