i never really developed a like for boy bands except maybe for 4 to 5 songs and that's it...
lately, my ofcmates has been playing these songs and i would always object and i will always be outnumbered :-(
so i have to resort to my headphones and play chill out musics (coz it's always raining)
then today i played bob marley, and it really suited up with the weather... nice eh!
anyway, we've found a way to download videos from you tube... :-p

ngarag
"ngarag" - a term used to describe a person with 20 tasks he/she is juggling with two hands...
i was like that for the past week, except that not all the activities are for the office ;-)
but still, im using 2 computers, each with it's own email address and their own problems... i'm monitoring 3 teams, or make that 4 (to include another committee) each with different functions and sometimes i also have to do what they are doing...
not just that, im hooked on a new rpg that's eating up the bulk of my time!!!... and there are other tons of things to do outside the office...
check out dungeon siege II.... anyone? :-)

you're beautiful
hmmm.... the song by james blunt was playing in taxi...
with me is my sis, my mom and one of the beautiful face i've seen...
as the song goes.. "... and I don't think that I'll see her again..."
yeah i don't think i'll see her again...
my sis took the cgfns exam today, at 5 in morning i have to get up, brave the heavy rain... cursed the taxi's passing by without stopping... fetch her from her hotel and bring her to the exam center... then go to work (not minding the fact that i ahve to go different directions to her and to my work)
another agonizing morning i thought... then my sis went down to the lobby with a new friend, a co-examinee...
afterall, i didn't regret all that i went through before that... " ...there must be an angel with a smile on her face..."
then came the spoiler... alas, a ring on her left ring finger.... pfffft... i had to excuse myself to smoke (",)

questions...
the past month, a question had been posted in my mind... i came across a discussion about heaven and if there people who died that are in heaven... one answer is when Jesus was about to die on the cross, one of those who was nailed with Him asked to Jesus to remember him when he dies... right there and then, Jesus promised to him to paradise that very moment... this was according to the Gospel of St. Luke.... however when i tried reading St. Matthew and St. Marks' Gospel, it was written that the two who were crucified with Jesus, actually mocked Him...
so i was really puzzled... which one should i believe...
then last saturday, my sister gave me a book(thanks sis!) written by a certain bible scholar named ariel valdes... he pointed out the difference on the intention of the authors.... while Mark has portrayed Jesus as more of a human being just like you and me, Luke portrayed him as divine... that's why you can see all the humanity of Jesus in Mark's account (like being angry, tired, etc... and other human traits)... while in Luke's writing, Jesus has always been loving and forgiving... very divine...
so which is which?
both are true because Jesus is both human and divine...

episkopos
the past weekend has been a blessed one...
episkopos - greek word for bishop
i happened to catch the early morning sunday mass for the bishops who were gathered at the pius xii catholic center
the mass was a mix of latin, english and tagalog attended by all the bishops (in the phils., including well known bishops like bishop bacani and cardinal rosales)
it was the first time i attended a mass when the seculars outnumbered the non-seculars... it was peaceful but i was a bit destructed because i was awed by their presence...
after the mass, i went outside the holy ground for my "unholy" habit of smoking and contemplated on my calling, call me impossible but i did had some priestly calling before... but even during that time i already had choosen to have a family of my own... because i believe i'll never be ready to be like them, i succumb easily to earthly things and i am too weak to have great discipline like them... all i have is my little faith which i wanted to be nourished...

existentialism
music: mr. clay - bamboo
"..i'm stronger now, stronger now than i was before ... there's no way you can hurt me..."
it's funny but i dont want to start this blog with any quotes or any line from a song or a poem but i just can't ignore the musing playing and the message it is saying... as if it were talking to me and i have to talk back...
sometimes in a journey you really had to take step back in order to move forward and in a very competitive and material world it is hard to accept that you are actually taking a step backward.
i want to believe i am an existentialist, i believe that everyone has to be responsible for their own actions and draw their own destinies...
that's why sometimes i had to personally experience a thing in order to believe to it completely...
that's why i was questioning free will and destiny and ended up with the answer about divine will...
that's why i had to take a step back and think about what i really believe in and what i wanted to do about it...
as blaise pascal wrote that without a God, life would be meaningless and miserable. people would only be able to create obstacles and overcome them in an attempt to escape boredom. and these victories would ultimately become meaningless, since people would eventually die.
come to think of it, am i really that bored that i create my own problems (obstacles) and then hurdle them in order to feel victorious?
really, i wish i was a child whose faith is the greatest of all. when you ask a child if he/she wants to go out and eat outside say mcdonald's for example, they would immediately say yes... without even bothering to think if they have money to pay for it, or what would other people say about them... they trust you that they would be taken cared off...
but iam not... i've got to be a better man :-)
things may not be exactly as i wished them to be, but i'm accepting it...
music: patience - guns n roses
need i say more about lyrics of the song? i've got it from the title itself... (",)
